Hello hello!

 

So here's the deal- I've been working on a small project and I've run into a bit of a roadblock that you all may be able to help me with. Long story short, I need to gather as much data as possible on peoples' favorite spells in literature or games. If you wouldn't mind, I would really appreciate you taking a quick survey here. I'm going to be taking your answers and parsing them out into letter frequency graphs based on what each spell does.

 

If you are feeling particularly generous, filling it out multiple times with different spells helps a lot! If you have any questions on the project, feel free to ask.


DDR4 - Food for thought

10 April 2014 - 07:27 AM

Since memory support is largely based on motherboards and processors, it's neat to hear that Intel has plans to release the Haswell line of CPUs in the second or third quarter of this year (I believe it was moved up to second quarter, June if I'm not mistaken). DDR4 isn't new news, it has been floating around for a while. But today, I was struck by a headline out of the corner of my eye, announcing the production of a DDR4 128GB single memory module (article here).

 

My first thought was: "How much would I be able to jam into a system now"?

Well, in current-day DDR3 land, the most you can effectively jam onto a motherboard is 4 DIMMs (8 slots) worth of memory, which is effectively 128GB in the best circumstances, like on this MSI board:

 

13-130-681-TS?$S300W$

 

 

When, not if, when, someone makes this kind of board with DDR4 DIMMs, you would be able to fill them with the 128GB modules mentioned above, and then... Poof!

 

Congratulations everyone, you might be able to build a system with 1 Terabyte of Memory within a year!*

*Assuming someone actually makes/has an OS that supports it, and things like the CPU and motherboard chipset do as well. Projected prices for OVER 9000 megabytes of RAM around $20,000+

Account shift

07 September 2013 - 06:08 AM

I recently acquired another Minecraft account without paying a dime, so I have opted to give the other away and use this as an opportunity to rename myself-

 

My new account is Reverie_Wisp, and this is hopefully going to replace Argeozonegon. If possible, I would love to get my builder points transferred as well as my builder rank.

 

Thanks for you time,

Second and final -

24 July 2013 - 11:41 PM

I have finished my second, and therefore final, CMC house. It's located at /warp s55, and I'm ready for it to be judged.

 

Thanks for your time,

Reverie
