00:28.56blast007spldart: heh
00:29.32spldartJust need two more weeks. Or so the IRS says ;)
00:29.52spldartGot my 6200 in my work pc right now..:(
00:54.50spldartstops pricing side by side 12 guages and starts pricing processors again.
01:07.47spldartHrm... would a phenom quad II Deneb 3ghz suck totally?
01:23.10Erroneousphenoms are lower on the price/performance curve than cores
01:23.24Erroneousi.e. more dollars per effective speed
01:23.51Erroneousbut they don't "suck totally" - I have one (3-core) in this machine
01:26.46spldarthrm..
01:27.07spldartI really need to lose my anti intel mindset don't I... Not sure if I can :(
01:27.52Erroneouslike I said, they don't "suck totally" - if you feel particularly antagonistic towards intel, there's no particular reason NOT to buy one
01:28.08Erroneousit's just not going to be the absolute best value
01:28.16spldartExcept the ineffeciency of dollar spent issue
01:28.20spldartic
01:28.29Erroneous(so the 12 gauge might have to wait ;) )
01:29.02spldartOMG! I didn't realize how much the side by side break action 12 guages cost 8-0
01:29.07Erroneousheh
01:29.18spldartEnough to by half dozen new pc's
01:29.33spldartDoesn't seem right
01:30.00spldarts/by/buy
01:31.34Erroneousthat seems a bit excessive
01:31.43Erroneousunless you're talking $100 pcs
01:32.35spldartI'm looking at 2000 dollar 12 guage shotguns... but it doesn't seem right when you think of 45nn cores and billions of combined transistor counts... geez
01:33.00spldartIt would seem the computers should cost alot more.
01:33.07spldartor the shotguns less.
01:33.10Erroneouscan't get a very good computer for $333
01:33.31spldartalot better than the ones I have laying around ;)
01:33.50spldartI'm back in the k7 era
01:34.25spldartsemprons, bartons, thoroughbreds and athlons Oh my
01:34.30*** join/#bzflag-chat temp_dist (n=temp_dis@bzflag/serverop/TemporalDistraction)
01:34.35Erroneousnot sure a modern celeron would beat a decent barton
01:35.07Erroneousthe difference between a $300 pc and a $400 pc is HUGE
01:35.10spldartReally? I got a dual 2.4ghz barton rig sitting next to me right now and it seems to be totally out classed in every way.
01:35.38Erroneousthe hardest thing about that is finding parts ;)
01:35.41spldartinteresting... I was shooting for 600 bux. Pieced together
01:35.43Erroneousno pcie, I assume
01:35.49spldartLOL
01:35.53spldartAll agp here
01:35.56spldartOh
01:36.02spldartand Pci 64/66
01:36.06Erroneousyup
01:36.23Erroneous600 or so will get you a nice machine
01:36.25spldartbut 64/66 is only good for a raid card
01:36.32Erroneousthat will easily beat anything you have laying around
01:36.40Erroneousbut 300 won't :)
01:37.07spldartWhen I pieced together my dual socket A I dropped 950$
01:37.15spldarta bit over 5 years ago
01:37.25spldartThen it got bartons and faster memory.
01:39.13spldartWoah... maybe it's now 6 years 8-0
01:43.06Erroneousshotgun should last a lot more years than a computer, though ;)
01:57.37spldartDepends on your 'rounds per year' hehe
02:11.04spldartCrud... video transcoding is far faster on I7 arch :(
02:12.21spldartn/m It's far to $$$
02:46.28spldartOh wow... I didn't know they were building hdmi into mobo's now 8-0
02:47.19spldartI wonder if it's any more reliable than the craptastic stuff available in consumer home theater gear.
02:52.55spldarthttp://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.155229
02:56.06blast007broken link
02:56.47spldartreally? works for me :(
02:56.53spldartWas just shopping a bit
02:56.53blast007spldart: they even have hdmi on some mini-itx boards
02:57.01spldartoh wow
02:58.18spldartstill has to replace lots of 'so called' hdmi repeaters, hdmi transmitters, hdmi selelectors, and hdmi osd/upscaler/processor IC's in numerous magor manufacturers gear :(
