Wait, so in the end I didn’t needed an i7 for serious gaming, just an overclocked i5 for a cheaper price? *shocked*

The rumor is that Intel is abandoning their 10nm node entirely for desktop and HEDT. They won't release high performance parts until 2022 - on a 7nm node Depends on which rumours you want to include/exclude I suppose :) This was a rumour/leak 3 days ago, about the 14++ nm Comet Lake-S I mentioned: …

I don't think a manufacturer would abandon any node that quickly, given the extreme cost of retooling your manufacturing facilities to a new node. That is an excellent point. If intel were retooling for 7nm, it would be hard to do in secret. It reminds me of NVIDIA with the GeForce and the 900- …

As i remember i've got 9300 3dmarks 2001 on radeon 9100 back in the days.. on athlon 1700+ palomino.. so results seems to be pretty low. 9100 is sure better video card, but not so much better, maybe it's the test4 (fisher etc) which doesn't run at all on mx.. //up to now i have sempron 2500+ as my …

I *think* I remember seeing a K5 badge on a K5-133 system of some OEM make some 21+ years back but I hope I'm not confusing that with K6 badges since an emphasized number was involved (and i've seen plenty of k6 badges)... wish I had something concrete to share on hand about this.

They used to have a lot of other stickers, that said PR rating where they claimed that it was as fast or the same as a Pentium. In addition there was usually a bunch of other stickers that said multimedia this or that. :lol: This was especially prevalent on emachines and other low end PCs that used …

Don't intend to hijack the thread, but it is somehow related. I started designing a NexGen Nx586 badge. I wonder if anyone has any image or marketing materials that could be used as a reference how the original badge looked like (if there was such a thing).

nexgen stuff is so rare now, it is holy grail. Even back in the day it was rare. 😢

Stop posting lies. Scali can't be wrong. Umm, about what, exactly? Seems to me, he's optimistic about Intel's future, which isn't something you can be "wrong" about until well after the fact. The rest of this thread has touched on "Which company is more innovative?" and "Which is faster?" and " …

So, who's going to put this into the Linux side of things though? It's also worth mentioning the nGlide glide wrapper has a option for this built in now too.

I like the 2nd option. Plays nicely with the black turbo display. I am inspired by the idea of making badge by using metallic tape & label maker as shown in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYeIr1fPHHU

I vote for the 2nd option too, the contrast with the beige case is very nice.
