From a meager beginning of a single page, it now covers over 400 BIOS options. As old BOG readers will know, we started offering two editions of the BOG since Revision 8.0 - a simplified edition and the complete edition. Normally, the complete edition is only available to subscribers who help sponsor the development of the guide through a small fee. However, that changes today! From now on, we will post a BIOS option from the complete edition of the BIOS Optimization Guide every Sunday.Sun, 01 Nov 2009 18:06:08 GMTLatest Adrian's Rojak Pot Updateshttp://www.techarp.com/showarticle.aspx?artno=354&pgno=0http://www.techarp.com/showarticle.aspx?artno=354&pgno=0http://forums.techarp.com/showthread.php?p=291192If you have no idea what's different between an AMD Opteron processor and an Intel Core 2 Xeon processor, then this is the guide for you!

Running with a higher spindle speed of 7,200 RPM and boasting twice the cache of a Scorpio, the Scorpio Black represents the epitome of Western Digital mobile hard disk drive technology. We had the opportunity to give their top-of-the-line 320 GB Scorpio Black for a test drive and we were most impressed with its performance.Tue, 27 Oct 2009 01:02:23 GMTLatest Adrian's Rojak Pot Updateshttp://www.techarp.com/showarticle.aspx?artno=98&pgno=0http://www.techarp.com/showarticle.aspx?artno=98&pgno=0http://forums.techarp.com/reviews-articles/8576-mobile-gpu-comparison-guide.htmlThese days, there are so many mobile GPU models that it has become quite impossible to keep up with the different configurations.

To improve reliability, these mainstream SSDs use a proprietary write-leveling algorithm to spread the writes over the entire drive. There are actually two variants of the X25-M mainstream SSD - the first-generation X25-M which is based on 50 nm NAND flash memory, and the second-generation X25-M based on 34 nm NAND flash memory. Today, we will be taking a look at the first-generation X25-M mainstream SSD, one with a storage capacity of 80 GB.Sat, 26 Sep 2009 01:47:16 GMTLatest Adrian's Rojak Pot Updateshttp://www.techarp.com/showarticle.aspx?artno=637&pgno=0http://www.techarp.com/showarticle.aspx?artno=637&pgno=0http://forums.techarp.com/reviews-articles/25366-direct3d-improvements-windows-7-a.html#post350730We recently got our hands on more internal documents on DirectX improvements in Windows 7, or rather how Windows 7 takes better advantage of Direct3D.
