I make videos about things that I find interesting. Mostly faffing around with old and new computers, audio and hi-fi, obsolete technology, DIY electronics etc.
well.. its just a cyrix cpu.. they sucked in dos days because they had terrible math processing if any at all. so I not sure its the best.. would expect a k6 to out perform a c3/cyrix., quake needed a math processor. a dx cpu. It ran fine on my am486dx4 back in the day.
Well, in my case it's running at 866MHz, so it's actually quite a bit faster than the K6 at, say, 400MHz. In fact, it seems to perform about as well as a Pentium II running at 400MHz. The K6 would still be faster on the clock-for-clock basis though.
I just bought one with i7, 8GB, 256 SSD. I have several Thinkpads: X1C2018, T480,T450S, X201, X250, want to try this legend, plan to mode it with ips screen and x220 keyboard.
Hi thank you very much for your great video I have a question about traditional power supply point 1:45 in the video You mention an inductor to be placed after the regulator To suppress what ? i mean what kind of AC noise could come out from the regulator not suppressed Have you tried also the classic regulator circuit ? Thanks a lot again Kind regards, gino
Hi gino, traditional monolithic regulator ICs such as LM7815 and LM317 can be quite noisy depending on the load capacitance, with noise peaking anywhere between 1 and 20 kHz depending on the load and other parameters of the circuit. Placing an LC or an RC filter after the regulator should help to suppress the aforementioned noise peaks.
@@yeoldestuff Hi thank you very much for your kind and extremely valuable advice I clearly have to study more the topic and i am about to do it Could these filters be places indifferently after or before the regulators ? and what would be your best option RC or LC filter ? thanks a lot again
@@gino3286 You’re welcome. The filter should be placed after the regulator. It is easier to get a lower cut-off frequency using an LC filter but frankly an RC filter should be just as efficient. For example, using a 1000uF capacitor and a 2.7Ohm resistor would effectively kill everything above 60Hz.
@@yeoldestuff thank you very much again I am starting now to do something I will start trying to measure noise from power supplies in the audio band using a low noise sound card and Arta software power supplies quality is very important in audio equipment Kindest regards gino
I built one of these when they first appeared on Audiokarma. Mine uses a 9 volt battery and I have been meaning to upgrade to a better power supply. These boards are high quality and the result is amazing. allows your old ceramic phono amp to use modern tonearm and cartridge.
the cables arent actually that bad, i bought a used pair of ksc75x and i have about 3 years with them theyve been pulled a bunch of times and used for mannyyyy hours and they still hold on. maybe im lucky or expect little of them but theyre good enough i love my ksc 75 i think is truly endgame other than the sub-bass roll off which isnt horrible but is there, is the only thing that isnt that great. the rest is spot on!, great lil headphone absolutely love it, they never dissapoint and keep surprising me each year, absolute tank
You pissed off every early dos lover in this whole world 😂 I think if you played those games when you were younger then nostalgia is the motive here. But I really like your work, for someone limited in space its a great option!
I just buy x230 few days ago, it's configure i5-3320m, 8GB ddr3 1600MHZ, 128GB msata, IPS display, just cost $300 RMB( about $42 US Dollar), I install Windows 10 lstc 2019, Firefox v115 internet is ok, youtube is good, play local 4K video ok using mpc-hc, ultra-lowest effect Genshin Impact have 24 FPS using old GPU driver. It's work fine in 2024 of today, I'm very satisfied.
Hello! I have a question, will a coral ai accelerator fit in that slot instead of an SSD? I think they have some models that can fit into a WWAN slot, Thank you)
This is wonderfully timely. I just bought a refurbished T480 to use build my first Linux system. Unfortunately, this process came to a screeching halt when it came to booting from a USB for the RAM check. I have gone down the rabbit hole of information to try and figure out how to do this. I can get into the boot screen but when I choose booting from a USB, the choice flips back to PCI LAN. So I went back into the BIOS changed boot order and disabled Secure Boot. Success! Thank you.
Hello, thank you for the clear video! I have a used lenovo T490. When I follow your instructions and enter into the bios, it states that *password at boot device list is enabled. According to your video this should be disabled. What are the implications of this - will I be able to do a clean install of windows/reformat still? Should I return the laptop? Thanks. (additionally the bios says that the absolute persistence module is enabled )
Is Absolute Persistence enabled or activated? If it's activated, then you won't be able to do anything. If it's enabled but not activated, you should be able to disable it by choosing "Permanently disabled" in the UEFI setup... if this option is not protected by the supervisor password. If the boot device order is locked in the BIOS, you probably won't be able to boot from any installation media to reinstall the OS. Personally, I would simply return the laptop, it's probably more hassle than it's worth.
First of all, you say chicken keyboard! And I don't know what each Lenovo keyboard would be called and I would like to know if there is a related article. 2- You say that the t430 is the older brother of the x230. I'm quite frustrated because I have an x220 but I've never known what line/series it comes next or what its Lenovo flagship is. Something similar to what Samsung does, it is easy to know which device is its high-end or the one that follows or its previous one. If you know how to know which is Lenovo 1, Lenovo 2 etc. You tell me!. Since I bought the t480 and I don't know which one I beat. 3- I don't understand that hardware decoding on RU-vid, so is it decoded by graphic video or what?
1) Chiclet keyboard. This means that there is some space between the keys. 2) Basically, in Lenovo's world, X series are ultraportable, X1 series are their top models, T series are business mainstream, L series are business affordable and E series are low cost machines. T430 is the same generation as X230 but it has a larger screen (14 inches). 3) Yes, decoded by the GPU. This is much quicker and uses less energy than CPU decoding.
The problem is fiding a proper sloket I have now a p3bf (bx440) But my sloket just has jumper for "cyrix" cpu and fsb setting, however, no voltage selection. I found a via c3 700a (Samuel 2 core because the 1.6v rating) but i dont want risk. I wanted use the p3bf because has two slot ( my cuv4x has 1) and using a slower isa video card to reach slower speed.
