You know maybe they can't return to the manufacturers and manufacturers gone or something like that. And I'd be -- have been burned it's like doing an open box but the nice thing is is if you make sure before you buy if it's still covered by the factory warranty.

Not a huge difference but it will be faster -- couple hundred bucks less this is good or -- talking about like a thousand -- thirteen hundred dollar processor. If you're -- one of the cheaper quad core processors are you money is an issue for you you're probably I think that the entry level I seven is a bargain at 299 dollars and 99 cents especially essentially. 300. Dollar socket. And there are many options out there basically it was not until you look at some video encoding benchmarks and realize that the 300 RI seven has been working really well against. 500 dollar court -- quad processors. The new processors are so. -- They're also going to be smoking and expensive to set up right now.

Which is a lot cooler in a lot of cases than an open box product which is usually at the retailer and it's something where somebody returned it in parts are missing or it was the demo off of the shelf or. You know maybe they can't return to the manufacturers and manufacturers gone or something like that. And I'd be -- have been burned it's like doing an open box but the nice thing is is if you make sure before you buy if it's still covered by the factory warranty. It's just as good as buying a new product -- would make sure that the discounts. Are healthy enough to warrant buying refurbished over the regular."

" Obviously not in turn Tyler. -- already met earlier in this episode that is if you did know marketing outlets do you -- about this the -- seven verses the font color."

" Okay here they get a new Intel core I seven versus the top of the line Intel core two extreme QX 977. -- and a whole numbers and letters things the top of the line Intel core I 795. Will be faster actually will basically encode the same chunk of video in fewer seconds. Not a huge difference but it will be faster -- couple hundred bucks less this is good or -- talking about like a thousand -- thirteen hundred dollar processor. If you're -- one of the cheaper quad core processors are you money is an issue for you you're probably I think that the entry level I seven is a bargain at 299 dollars and 99 cents especially essentially. 300. Dollar socket. And there are many options out there basically it was not until you look at some video encoding benchmarks and realize that the 300 RI seven has been working really well against. 500 dollar court -- quad processors. The new processors are so. -- They're also going to be smoking and expensive to set up right now. Because these three banks by DDR three it's called triple channel memory and -- I even more affordable -- that will not be out until probably -- exploring 2009. --"

" And it definitely of those things where as we advance since time developers are going to learn how to write things and optimize for the processor. And things just get faster and faster so if you think it's more of like a future investment. If you spend some money now on the -- seven versus staying with the quad core that beats a minute benefits him in the future or. Well within that amount of time building better software that takes advantage what's the deal depends on what."

" Your incremental operator or like you basically by my funeral she followed months yeah right now I yeah yeah out. -- incremental upgrade or you know -- I make fun of me because you know -- you know I've I've built a 500 dollar piece a year and then a couple of you know years later like half the ports have been -- that's just the way to roll Rogers. You're gonna buy big new system and nobody can touch it for another three years. If you're -- top of the line. Definitely go the core I seven if you're in the mid range.

But should I be changing my hard drive for performance reasons my laptop currently has a few -- HV twenty AD BH in -- 400 -- external an external drive on the notebook. I had to war between an operating ramp going from two gigabytes to three gigabytes or new hard drive for Christmas to your thoughts on which could best -- my laptop performance would be much appreciated Michael.

" Why can't upgrading is a great way to extend the life of you know but do you think he really hasn't external. External components you really are that's an idea that's better than you sent."

" The ball number to two point five internal drive may be as an external case in any case. Case case --"

" The windows experience index score is a strange beast and actually can often be incredibly misleading especially if you're perfectly satisfied with the way your system is running. In case the disk or they experience in the expeditors disband within megabytes per second wonderful thing to measure it but -- drive -- running Vista should at least score 2.0. Ideally you do both operate at the costs are too much for you but. I think in the hard drive's going to be more useful. Three gigabytes let's -- mean that's workable. Laptop ten.

" Yeah and the truth is is going from to a fifty megabytes -- twelve megabytes on that particular card that you mention because as a whole bunch of different quad graphics models I don't think that doubling the memory it's gonna help your graphics performance that much because it's basically an older. 3-D graphics core inside of that."
