Studies on 45 Rpm Boxes

June 5th, 2011 |

You CAN hear these fans, just not very well. And that’s a good thing considering how much air they push. My i7-930 runs at 39°C idle, overclocked at 4.0GHz. And that’s with two of these on a Corsair H50, turned to low speed with a Scythe Kaze-Q fan controller.

Need Help Deciding Which Computer is the BEST choice in terms of Speed, Performance and Graphics. Please Help?
I’m mainly going to use my computer for design purposes with Adobe CS5 Master Collection and streaming videos. QVC offers a fairly priced collection and i have my decision down to these two computers. I just want the one with the fastest performance & the best graphics. People tell me just look at the RAM and the higher it is would be the better one. But cant i just simply purchase more RAM if the laptop isn’t already maxed out? Also what about the graphic card and the Core processor? How do you “turbo charge” a computer?? Can someone simply point out which one of these two is just simply the best and why please? Much appreciated First computer is the HP Pavilion dv7-4177nr:Link: http://www.qvc.com/qic/qvcapp.aspx/view.2/app.detail/params.item.E166560.cm_scid.shpl/walk.yah.0000Specs:Notebook, 9-cell li-ion battery, AC adapter, and PC Treasures software (ships separately)VISION technology from AMD with 2.9GHz AMD Phenom II dual-core 45 Rpm Boxes mobile processor N64017.3″ diagonal high-def+ HP BrightView LED display, 1600×900 resolution6GB DDR3 RAM640GB 7200RPM SATA hard drive with ProtectSmart hard drive protectionLightScribe Blu-ray ROM with SuperMulti DVD+/-RW drive, 2-layer support802.11b/g/n wireless LANBluetooth technologyATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 switchable graphics with 512MB DDR3 RAM, up to 3197MB total memoryBeats Audio and HP triple bass-reflex subwooferWebcam, digital micHP SimplePass, integrated fingerprint readerHP Clickpad5-in-1 digital media reader: SD, MMC, MS, MS Pro, xDBattery life up to 7.5 hours3 USB 2.0 portsHDMI, eSATA/USB, VGA, RJ-45 portsHeadphone/mic jacksGenuine Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bitCannot deliver to P.O. boxesMeasures approximately 16-3/8″ x 10-3/4″ x 1-1/2″, weighs 8-1/4 lbsUL listed adapter; 1-year LMWMade in ChinaThe other computer is the Dell XPS :Link: http://www.qvc.com/qic/qvcapp.aspx/view.2/app.detail/params.CM_SCID.coll.item.E246894.desc.Dell-XPS-156-NotebookCore-i76GB-RAM500GB-HD2GB-GraphicsSpecs:Includes XPS 15 notebook, six-cell lithium-ion battery, AC adapter, manual, setup diagram2.7GHz Intel Core i7-2620M processor, up to 3.4GHz with Turbo Boost15.6″ diagonal widescreen HD WLED TrueLife display with 720p signal support, 1366×768 resolution6GB shared dual-channel DDR3 memory500GB 7200 RPM hard drive8X DVD+/-RW dual-layer driveDell 2GB DataSafe online backup/storage for one yearIntel Centrino Advanced-N 6230 wireless half mini cardBluetooth 3.0NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M 2GB graphics with OptimusIntel HD audio 2.0Built-in 2.0 megapixel webcam with facial recognitionBacklit keyboard10/100/1000 ethernet9-in-1 media card readerTwo USB 3.0 portsHDMI 1.4, eSATA/USB 2.0 combo with Power Share, mini display, RJ-45 portsTwo headphone jacks, one with S/PDIF supportMic jackGenuine Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bitMicrosoft Office Starter 201015 months of McAfee Security CenterMeasures approximately 15″W x 10-3/8″D x 1-3/8″HUL listed adapter; 2-year LMWMade in MalaysiaPlease tell me what is the main difference between the two so i could learn as well?
