Zijdelings: Moore’s law

29 november 2009, 15:40 | ∞

Uit een vraag op Ask Metafilter over de ideale computer setup, budget niet belangrijk, uit 2003:

  • Memory: Lots of it. As much as you can afford. 1 Gigabyte is a good spot - any more really won’t be noticed but it sure looks impressive in the specs.
  • Hard drive: Similar to memory - as much as you can get. RAID setups can improve performance dramatically, so try and see if you can get it.
  • Video: ATI’s got the edge right now with their Radeon 9800. It’s faster and quieter (always a plus) than the competetive NVIDIA FX5950.
  • Optical drive: Get a DVD recorder that can do both DVD+R/RW and DVD-R/RW. 8x drives are bleeding edge right now, so try to get that.
  • Keyboard/mouse: both Logitech and Microsoft have pretty sweet wireless units - can’t go wrong with either.

De wet van Moore, still going strong.
