I am sure games (and other programs) will need 2GB+ memory in the future (quite near future I might add) and also 64-bit OSses are the future too, sooner or later everyone who wants to have a powerfull computer will have to upgrade to it. The transition would happen a lot sooner though if the hardware manufacturers would get out of their arses and start developing some proper 64-bit drivers..
Actually those programs write random data. If you just write blank (or zeros) it's quite easy to determine what value the bit had before erasing. That becomes a whole lot more difficult when the bit has been treated with random values for a while.
Mind you nothing is never 100% proof, it's incredible what companies like Ibas can do to recover data.
That's been on wikipedia for a long time. I doubt it's true tough.
Then again who knows what the devs have been testing internally, but they do seem to be mostly a "when-it's-done-release-it" kind of types.
Yes. Lower response time is better. But TFT response times have been suitable for the avarage person around when manufacturers started quoting 16ms.
To the OP. The difference is not probably noticeable, infact I don't think the actual response times are that different anyway, they just have lied more on the other one
Don't use alt-tab. Instead make LFS windowed (SHIFT + F4) then you can go to other programs.
ALT + TAB can not be handled correctly and it can cause unexpected problems.
I still prefer setting my AA/AF settings from an external program. nHancer to be specific. They just offer wider variety of options.
Altough for less experienced players having the settings in game is a good option.
It does not look stretched or compressed
20" looks sharper because the pixels are smaller and 22" is of course bigger physically.
I would say if your primary use is games and movies 22" is probably a better choice, but for other uses I would get the 20".
Because computer programs benefit more from heigth than width, so they decided to use a bit of compromise instead of going fully 16:9. Besides most movies are in a even more wider aspect ratio so they aren't full screened even in a 16:9 display.
Because 1280x1024 resolution is 5:4. And 1280x1024 is used because it's a standard resolution. And it's a standard because it fitted better in the memory (or something like that) in the old days when resolutions were standardized.
@harjun: I am pretty sure your monitor isn't 1280x720, it's most likely 1280x800.
It's the old problem of the FFB motors in the wheel being too slow. There is not much you can do really, except reduce the lock of the wheel and try not get the car out of control
Quite interesting actually. It would be perfect if it was a G25 inside, with cheaper materials outside and without clutch/h-shifter. Since I already have quality set of pedals and h-shifter so I don't want to buy the whole set (G25), but I am looking for a replacement for my DFP. Also that brake bias dial is a nice addition
We'll just have to wait for reviews and see what if this wheel is actually anything special or if it's just a periodical update of the range.
