    Asus ROG Maximus VII Impact

    Me too, but I'm also waiting on Maxwell, so my suffering will not end here.

    34" 21:9 UltraWide Displays (3440x1440) - LG UM95/UM65 & Dell U3415W

    Well, I can tell you that this one won't work for the UM95. The size of the rails is ok, but the hole pattern makes it so that you can't attach them without blocking the inputs on the monitor. Specifically the DC IN, HDMI1 and DisplayPort. :(

    Can I join the domain I created in Windows 8 Hyper-V from the host OS?

    I'm running Window 8 (bootcamp) on a 16GB rMBP with a 768GB SSD. I've been having a lot of fun creating an active directory network within Hyper-V to play with the Microsoft BI stack (SQL Server, SharePoint, etc.) Ideally what I'd like to do is to join my Windows 8 host, as a client, to the...

    Dell U3014 News

    This is not exactly true either. As a retina MacBook Pro owner I can tell you OS X and Windows 8 have much improved non native scaling. I'm not sure what kind of wizardy is going on under the hood but OS X looks beautiful in many resolutions. I'm using Win 8 most of the time and while I'm not...

    SSDs and HyperFast

    There are some who would disagree with that. Unfortunately, I don't think we have enough information yet.

    Best 16GB RAM Solution for Sandy Bridge?

    My memory has two profiles, SPD and XMP. By default, the BIOS initially used the SPD profile which set the RAM to 1333. Usually there's a setting in the BIOS to enable XMP timings. I just switched mine to 1600 and it picked up the XMP timings. And yes, Intel, refers to this as overclocking.

    Best 16GB RAM Solution for Sandy Bridge?

    I'm currently running the Vengeance 4x4GB kit at 1600MHz at stock voltages and settings. I wouldn't call that overclocking.

    Best 16GB RAM Solution for Sandy Bridge?

    My point was that populating all 4 slots does not limit you to 1333, as this thread was suggesting.

    Best 16GB RAM Solution for Sandy Bridge?

    Populating all 4 slots does not limit you to 1333. The Sandy Bridge controller is proving to be pretty formidable, in fact the Corsair Vengeance 16GB kit runs at 1866 and beyond. http://www.corsair.com/blog/corsair-vengeance-high-density-module-overclock-results

    Does the ~50% free space rule apply to SSDs?

    I always heard 80%, but that had to do with rotational latency and leaving enough space for defragmentation. Two things we don't have to worry about with an SSD. Supposedly... I saw a post from someone whose SSD fragmentation was 60% so he ran Perfect Disk and benchmark scores improved...
