Need recommend of new mobo

linkinpark — Tue, 05 May 2009 19:25:00 +0800

Currently still using Abit KN9SLI(Nforce570SLI) and been using this mobo around 3yrs already. I wanna upgrade but dunno which mobo is good. My budget around rm300-rm500+.
But which should i choose Nvidia or AMD chipset? I won't be using onboard sound and graphic. Single card GC is enough for me. In future might get those amd P2(920 or 955) proc.
Maybe once a while OC but not so frequently.

AMD Dual-Core Optimizer v1.1.4

linkinpark — Sun, 17 Aug 2008 19:07:31 +0800

AMD Dual-Core Optimizer
The AMD Dual-Core Optimizer can help improve some PC gaming video performance by compensating for those applications that bypass the Windows API for timing by directly using the RDTSC (Read Time Stamp Counter) instruction. Applications that rely on RDTSC do not benefit from the logic in the operating system to properly account for the affect of power management mechanisms on the rate at which a processor core's Time Stamp Counter (TSC) is incremented. The AMD Dual-Core Optimizer helps to correct the resulting video performance effects or other incorrect timing effects that these applications may experience on dual-core processor systems, by periodically adjusting the core time-stamp-counters, so that they are synchronized

Release Notes For
Version 1.1.4

---Improvement and Fixes---
Version 1.1.4
* Fixed installation issue on Windows Vista.
Version 1.1.3
* Updated AMD Dual-Core Optimizer for compatibility with AMD Family 10h and AMD Family 11h processors.
Version 1.1.2
* AMD Dual-Core Optimizer installation no longer requires system reboot. (Clean installs only, upgrades from 1.1.1 still requires reboot.)
Version 1.1.1
* AMD Dual-Core Optimizer’s driver has been WHQL tested and signed by Microsoft Corporation.
Version 1.1.0
* 4x4 “Gaming Mode” added.
Version 1.0.0
* This is the initial release.

VirtualDub 1.8.1 (stable)

linkinpark — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 23:38:21 +0800

VirtualDub is a video capture/processing utility for 32-bit Windows platforms (95/98/ME/NT4/2000/XP), licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). It lacks the editing power of a general-purpose editor such as Adobe Premiere, but is streamlined for fast linear operations over video. It has batch-processing capabilities for processing large numbers of files and can be extended with third-party video filters. VirtualDub is mainly geared toward processing AVI files, although it can read (not write) MPEG-1 and also handle sets of BMP images.

Build 29808 (1.8.1, stable): [June 15, 2008]
[features added]
* The 'run as job' setting is now saved in the Save AVI dialog.
* Added distributed job queue mode.
* Added bob and non-interlaced field display modes to render preview.
* Added new test video mode: interlaced cube.
* Added option to run video compressor in a separate thread for better dual
core/SMP performance.
* YCbCr resampler is now SSE4.1 optimized.
* Added command-line switches for minimizing/maximizing the window on
startup and setting process priority.
* AMD64: The threshold, grayscale, levels, logo, and brightness/contrast
video filters are now available.
* Plugins: Fixed bugs with and raised size limits for serialized input
plugin options data.
[bugs fixed]
* Fixed cases where the crop/letterbox to aspect ratio options in the resize
filter were broken.
* Fixed another rare crash when exiting filter list dialog.
* Fixed Postpone and Delete buttons in job control dialog sometimes not
updating when a job state changes.
* Fixed swapping of AVI superindex and subindex settings.
* Fixed bugs with cropping in filter chain with YUY2 or UYVY formats.
* Mouse wheel scrolling with Shift held down (by key frame) now works
properly.
* Fixed infinite loop when attempting to convert a pal8 source to 4:2:0
YCbCr.
* The initial load of AVI files is now faster over a network.
* TARGA files are no longer written all black when 32-bit RGB output is
used.
* Added workaround for "image not in Y or YCbCr format" errors when reading
JPEGs from a RAZR V3 phone.
* Deleting a filter in the filter list no longer causes the checkboxes to
desync from the actual filter enable states.
* AVI: Files with truncated hierarchical AVI indices no longer result in
"missing 'movi' chunk" errors and can now be recovered.
* DV: Fixed decoding issue that resulted in some lost blocks.
* DDraw: Fixed occasional crash when another application forces full-screen
mode.
* Capture: Fixed crash in OpenGL screen capture mode related to occlusion
query based frame dropping.
* Capture: Fixed hang on shutdown when exiting with OpenGL screen capture
mode active.
[regressions fixed]
* Fixed crash when a script specifies arguments for a video filter that
doesn't take any.
* Data rate was reported incorrectly for the video stream in the status
dialog.
* Fixed audio display.
* Fixed crashes and decompression errors with paletted video.
* Filter preview no longer shows bogus frames when previewing a filter chain
with edits on the timeline and no frame rate changing filters.
* Filters: Codec-friendly alignment works in resize filter again.

Foxit Reader 2.3

linkinpark — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 02:43:52 +0800

Foxit Reader is a free PDF document viewer and printer, with incredible small size (only 2.55 M download size), breezing-fast launch speed and rich feature set. Foxit Reader supports Windows Me/2000/XP/2003/Vista. Its core function is compatible with PDF Standard 1.7.

In the past, you've had to download a huge PDF reader from another software company, go through a lengthy installation process and wait for an annoying splash window to disappear just to open a PDF document. Moreover, if you want to annotate a PDF document, you have to pay US$299 to buy certain software.

Now with Foxit Reader, you don't have to endure such pain any more. The following is a list of compelling advantages of Foxit Reader:

Incredibly small: The download size of Foxit Reader is only 2.55 M which is a fraction of Acrobat Reader 20 M size.
Breezing-fast: When you run Foxit Reader, it launches instantly without any delay. You are not forced to view an annoying splash window displaying company logo, author names, etc.
Annotation tool: Have you ever wished to annotate (or comment on) a PDF document when you are reading it? Foxit Reader allows you to draw graphics, highlight text, type text and make notes on a PDF document and then print out or save the annotated document.
Text converter: You may convert the whole PDF document into a simple text file.
High security and privacy: Foxit Reader highly respects the security and privacy of users and will never connect to the Internet without users' permission. While other PDF readers often silently connect to the Internet in the background. Foxit PDF Reader does not contain any spyware.

What's new in Version 2.3?
The following is a list of exciting improvements introduced in Foxit Reader 2.3.

New features:

Bookmark Design: Makes it possible to have your own bookmarks. Users can create, edit, or delete bookmarks in a PDF file if the security settings allow.
Multi-tab Browsing: Enables users to open multiple files in a single instance.You can choose to view PDFs in a multi-tab window or multiple instances by setting documents layout from the Preferences dialog.
Multimedia Player Support: Supports many media formats including audio and video. Read multimedia ebooks with Foxit Reader 2.3.
Callout and Text box Tool: Creates comments in a callout text box or a box. You can also define their appearance as other commenting tools.
Commenting Text Tool: Enables users to add most types of text edits by right-clicking on the selected text, including highlight, strikeout, underline, squiggly and replacement. You can also use the Commenting Text Tool to add bookmarks for PDF files.
Rulers and Guides: Provides horizontal and vertical ruler guides to help users align and position objects on the page. Right-clicking on the ruler enables you to change the unit of measurement.
Magnifier: Magnifies areas of the PDF files easily as you work on Foxit Reader.
Automatic Scrolling: Allows users to view documents without using mouse actions or keystrokes.
OCG Support: Enables the user to view related content stored in a variable number of separate layers.
FDF Related: Opens FDF files directly with Foxit Reader without any import implementations.
Enhanced features:

Optimized Rendering:Supports progressive rendering and significantly reduces the response time from the user interface events.
Improved Link Tools:Allows users to add actions to links, such as go to a page view, open or execute a file, open a web link, etc.
Improved Snapshot:Enables users to print the selected area in Foxit Reader by simply selecting the Print option from the context menu.
Search Enhancement:Allows users to float, move and resize the Full Foxit Search box.
Better Annotation control:Groups drawing markups to help users operate objects collectively, and allows users to move annotations through pages.
Font Information:Lists the fonts and the font types used in the original document in the Properties dialog.
Updated Command Line:Allows users to open password protected PDF documents with a simple command prompt.
