Yeah, I know. It literally doesn't explain how does 10600 become 1333 Though

DDR3 has a 4x multiplier, and transfers data at the leading and falling edge of the clock. Base clock is 1333, (ideal) effective clock is 10664 (1333*8). Though memory rarely runs at exactly the spec (often times it can't, they just pick a close enough number for marketing purposes). -- |

Thanks. wiki said: Thus with a memory clock frequency of 100 MHz, DDR3 SDRAM gives a maximum transfer rate of 6400 MB/s. In addition, the DDR3 standard permits chip capacities of up to 8 gigabytes.
Wot? So theoretical limit of ML's ram data transfer speed is 13.33 x 6.4GB/s? That's nonsense. What did I miss?

My primary drive crashed recently, but your computer sounds interesting. That bit about the computer booting before the screen is drawn reminds me of something I read in Mad magazine. Mad was spoofing Star Wars, and in a battle scene, one pilot commented his ship could travel twice the speed of light, while the guns fired at the speed of light. He wound up shooting himself down. Don't shoot yourself down ML. By reading this sig, I, the reader, agree to render my soul to Bob Keane. I, the reader, understand this is a legally binding contract and freely render my soul. |

Heh, yeah, my desktop has a 30G Vertex SSD as / and a 640G as /home (iirc? could be 320G, tbh I can't rememeber now :O) It boots pretty quick but having /home as a hdd really slows down the desktop loading as KDE does a lot of IO reading config files and whatnot. -- |

My desktop has a 64 GB SSD and a 500 GB HDD. The HDD isn't big enough though, with all of the Steam games that I inevitably want to install, so I run out of space. Also, Windows wastes a ton of space, even just with the core system. I think this time I'm going to install a GNU+Linux distro entirely onto the SSD and put Windows on a 100 GB partition at the end of the HDD. Then I'll just try to emphasize using Windows only for gaming and booting back into GNU+Linux when I'm not. I'll try to get as many games running in Wine as possible. -- acc.js | al4anim - Allegro 4 Animation library | Allegro 5 VS/NuGet Guide | Allegro.cc Mockup | Allegro.cc <code> Tag | Allegro 4 Timer Example (w/ Semaphores) | Allegro 5 "Winpkg" (MSVC readme) | Bambot | Blog | C++ STL Container Flowchart | Castopulence Software | Check Return Values | Derail? | Is This A Discussion?

I told you not to dual boot on an SSD. |

I have a raid 1 with 2 disks, I get about 60 megabytes/second.. Other than that, last month I went cheap and got myself a quad core amd processor with 8 gigs of ram, does the trick, running two VMs at once. ----- Sometimes you may have to send 3-4 messages |

For some reason Linux just didnt work out, on Ubuntu my ethernet card would drop 50% of packets and on Fedora KDE would crash at start, I'll look into it later but for now i'm doing my dev work under a linux VM. ----- Sometimes you may have to send 3-4 messages |

You're clearly doing something wrong My server's raid1 is a pair of single platter 500G drives. Which means theres no way for the drive to speed things up by interleaving access between platters. So they are slower than larger drives. And still they get 90-100MB/s.

I don't know how fast the hard disks are, but the only time it's aggravating is when cron fires up slocate at 4 a.m. They all watch too much MSNBC... they get ideas. |

Not even line 7 wraps. Actually it wasn't as epic as the picture looks as you can see that it was duplicating some of the display among screens as XRandR was freaking out after seven monitors. |
