Hello my fello xdaers.
I have a macbook pro with the radeon 6750m. I am having issues getting catalyst to overclock in windows 7.
I've tries the older versions to no avail. I haven't tried the beta drivers yet, IE bf3 preview drivers.
Just wondering if any had some constructive insight. I hate macs too lol, this thing is beast though and I would like to oc the card..

I want a 14-15" laptop for design and development. Willing to drop at most $2500. Right now I'm keying in on the 15" Macbook Pro (2.2 Ghz, 4GB but 8GB with $80-100 aftermarket RAM, 1680x1050 antiglare).
I want to know what the best 14"-15" high end Windows laptops are right now. I think the build of the Macbook is second to none but a 1080p display and better specs may just make me skip the Macbook if the build and batterylife are decent enough.
Are you getting the 1gb video card?

Yeah. Looked into the dell XPS 15z... looked so perfect but no quad core... Had a HP Envy 15 before but they seemed to have dropped it for the Sub par 14... where are the beast Windows laptops?

Hmm there are always the alienware m14x And m15x, don't know if you like those but they can be a real beast is you spec them out right. And with your budget I don't that's too big of a deal

i would go for a toshiba satellite. they do ship out with quad cores and decent graphics cards, and the top notch harman/kardon speakers never fail to impress
The macs are well built but didnt ifixit find too much thermal paste

I stopped by a Future Shop today and got to play with the 7" Acer Iconia Tab. Honeycomb 3.2 is really nice and usable at that size, unlike the old SDK ports to the Nook.
Any chance the SDK ports will be resurrected for 3.2?

No, without source there will be no viable HC port, anyway ICS will be out in a month or two.
I'm very out of touch with PC and laptop/netbook benchmarks.
A friend is asking me if I want to buy his HP Mini netbook for $150, its running Ubuntu with a 1.6ghz dual core processor, also 2GB RAM
I'm currently running a desktop running Pentium 4 from almost 10 years ago, its a custom built alienware, 2GB RAM. Still runs great
Is it worth giving the P4 to my dad and getting the netbook?
I only internet surf, watch videos, network, etc.

Id say go for it, dual core makes a boat load of difference in performance.

Its a dual core atom.

Don't you diss the all mighty Atom! I remember when i had an Acer Aspire One A150 with a single core Atom. It rocked my world. It ran GTA Vice City!
Any more advice?

Bumping for advice.
I don't mean to hijack this thread. But I have an Acer Aspire One with the Intel Atom N550, which is a dual core atom at 1.6 GHz. It has 2GB of ram. I put Ubuntu 11.10 on it and it runs like a beast. I use it only for my school work. Typing papers, power point lectures, school email, and the occasional internet browsing. Should I keep Ubuntu or put Windows XP on it. I know XP is a little out dated, but it would run like a beast on this setup. What would you guys do? Should I keep Ubuntu for what I need it for, or should I use XP for the stated above?
Either one would work I would think, since Ubuntu is lightweight as it is, its probably a better long term choice, but either is probably great.

A toshiba netbook should be fine. I have a netbook with same specs and windows 7 and it runs great. But my brother has the HP mini and he had issues with windows 7

I'm running an Acer aspire with a dual core atom with 2 gb of ram on Ubuntu. It runs super awesome. If he only wants 160 for it I say do it.

I have an Asus 1215B (AMD Dual-Core Processor E350 with AMD Mobility Radeon HD 6310). I was looking for an Intel Atom Netbook then I found this and let me say that it really rocks. It feels snappier against every atom netbook I've tested it against. I also didn't have any problem to make various linux distro run on this, it is based on Amd Fusion platform which is rapidly growing amongst linux communities so I suggest this netbook
I usually develop software for android using this netbook while on the go and I haven't had any problem with it. looking forward to replace the hd with an ssd one, done that it will be perfect for my needs
Hi guys I know this doesn't have anything to do with this website but I kinda need help and I don't know any other site so yeah
I have a 2GB RAM Intel Core Duo 2.93GHz and 2.86GHz Im running Windows 8 Consumer Preview and Mac OS X Lion inside Virtual machine on VMware workstation 8 anywho Im planning on buying extra 4GB of RAM for better proformance and I was wondering can I add extra processor too like Intel Core i5 (dual Core) or another Intel Core Duo.
So guys what do you think I need help and I'm sorry if that was of topic but I need help
And do you have another suggestions for better hardware.
THANK YOU.

Moved to off topic.
You can have only one processor at a time (usually, I've seen freak motherboards that support 2 CPUs), also, you have a C2D which is a different socket than an i5, so even if you buy a new CPU, you would need a new motherboard. Also for the ram, make sure you have enough slots for it, and make sure you get the correct one. If you have no idea what I'm talking about go to a computer repair shop, they'll do everything you want to do.
Thanks, I can add up to 6GB of RAM so yeah I'm covered on that part but do you think I need a newer processor or will the core duo and the 6GB of RAM would be enough to run both OS' smoothly?

Since you arent running them at the same time it should be good. I have 8gb RAM, and C2D CPU and windows & runs good, and W8 uses less resources.
I'm gonna run Mac OS X Lion in virtual machine on VMware Workstation 8 does 2GB or 3GB and a single 2.93GHz core on the virtual machine enough to run it inside VMware smoothly?

Yes, you should be fine, but don't think you wil use it for heavy video processing or something.
No, I'll just be using Mac OS X Lion for some apps and internet browsing. Maybe a movie rarely.
Thank you so much sir you really helped me.

So Valve have released a beta version of Steam for Linux, and I immediately wondered if it would work on Ubuntu for the Nexus7. Surely I'm not the only one who had thought of this? I'm not game enough to try installing Ubuntu on my tablet yet, but would love to hear from anyone who has!
Sent from my Nexus 7
It's not possible. Nexus 7 has an ARM processor, and the ARM version of Ubuntu can be installed on it. Applications built for the x86 platform, such as Steam, won't work on the ARM version of Ubuntu.
An x86 emulator on Ubuntu could be a solution, but Nexus 7 is probably too slow.
Then why even care to install Ubuntu at all then?

Why not? It's because you can. Remember that a lot of ARM development is very much in the 'baby' stages. Everything in due time.

Several reasons. I use the arm compiled adb and fastboot binaries from within ubuntu on my n7 to work on peoples devices while out and about. No need to lug a laptop around. And thats only one small example.
