Good news for ATI users.
The driver is out now.

I just tried the new driver with the game, amd 6 cores, 5850 on 1920x1080 everything maxed.
the fps dropped A LOT...the lag is quite obvious, i guess it'd be around 20-30fps.

[WTA]Finding the cheapest line for calling SG

sukhoi37 — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 12:59:18 +0800

I wanna know what package(postpaid or prepaid) got the cheapest charge rate for calling singapore mobile line.
I just checked with maxis, the postpaid IDD charge rate for sg : maxis calling sg mobile = RM0.50 per minute / sms = RM1.00 per minute
the hotlink package should be the same right?

Need you guys input here.

Thanks

Can our local distributor do sth similar to SG?

Corsair HX520 = SGD139 ~ RM319
Corsair HX620 = SGD168 ~ RM387

This is the latest promotion brought by their corsair distro Corbell.

Has anyone seen this kinda promotion at LYP?
What are our distro doing?
Are they just thinking how to suck consumers blood with the jack-up prices?
Slow RMA, lousy service, do not bring in quality product(Very hard to find the mentioned PSU above locally).....

Maxis RM600 for 3 hours talktime in Singapore

sukhoi37 — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 13:31:28 +0800

Received an maxis sms this morning, saying that my talktime just reached 80% of the total credit limit(total is rm850)

I was in Singapore from 23/2 to 24/2.
My total talktime was not more than 3 hours.
2 hours chat with my maxis subline who's in malaysia (including call out and received call)
no more than 30 minutes talktime with sg friend (including call out and received call)

Called 123, one lady told me the charge rate for me to call in SG is around rm1.5 per minute for maxis.
SG network provider will charge me at the same time with unknown charge rate.
While receiving call also will charge me more than rm2 per minute.

I'm regret now, shouldn't have activate international roaming last week...

Chinese Scientists Control Pigeon via Remote ctrl

sukhoi37 — Tue, 27 Feb 2007 23:39:14 +0800

QUOTE

Chinese researchers became the first to control pigeons via remote control

Scientists from the Robot Engineering Technology Research Center at Shandong University of Science and Technology successfully used micro electrodes implanted in a pigeon's brain to make it fly left, right, up or down. The scientists used implants to stimulate different sections of the pigeon brain according to signals that scientists sent via a computer, which forced the pigeon to comply with the operator's instructions.

Su Xuecheng, chief scientist on the project, said that his trials are the first experiment conducted like this in the world -- the scientists previously tried something similar with lab mice two years ago, with improvements in device design and technology being one of the leading reasons this trial worked.

The Chinese team did not specify exactly how the remote-control pigeon would be utilized in real-world applications. Su has successfully carried out the same experiments on mice since 2005.

The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is also working on trying to control animals. Earlier this year, DARPA announced a project to actively manipulate a shark's brain signal, allowing scientists to accurately control the shark's movements. This technology would be used to help these 'stealth sharks' patrol the open seas.

This new processor has the equivalent audio processing power as 24 Sound Blaster Audigy chips! That allows us to deliver a whole host of new features that were previously just not possible due to restricted processing capabilities.

One of the critical design elements for the Creative X-Fi Audio Processor was to be able to deliver the best gaming performance ever seen. Most importantly was the fact that we wanted to provide this additional gaming performance while simultaneously delivering an enhanced audio experience - a feat never before achieved!

We are therefore pleased to be able to provide a sneak preview of some early test results that prove that we have achieved what we set out to do. Now you will be able to enjoy real-time 24-bit re-sampled & re-mastered gaming audio plus the most accurate surround-sound over headphones or multi-speakers as well as full EAX ADVANCED HD 4.0 enhancements all while enjoying a performance boost in your games! (In the future this will also be applicable to EAX ADVANCED HD 5.0 supported game titles)

Creative said the $400 Sound Blaster X-Fi Elite Pro, the $280 Sound Blaster X-Fi Fatal1ty FPS, the $200 Sound Blaster X-Fi Platinum and the $130 Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic will go on sale in the US this month.
