Advanced warning of the Halsway Manor Hurdy-Gurdy Weekend to be held at Halsway Manor, near Crowcombe in Somerset, from Friday 8th February to Sunday 10th February 2013. Teachers already booked include Gregory Jolivet, Steve Tyler and Claire Dugue. This runs in parallel with the John Swayne Bagpipe Workshop Weekend and features a Hurdy-Gurdy and Bagpipe Concert on the Saturday evening with Gregory Jolivet, Steve Tyler, Katy Marchant and Jon Swayne.

Hurdy-gurdy workshop and concert with Valentin Clastrierannounced for 25th and 26th May 2012 in Stockholm, Sweden. More details here.
Altarwind Music, Oregon-based maker of hurdy-gurdies, has announced that it is now offering a third-row of keys on many of its instruments to allow the playing of harmonies. This is a feature that was pioneered by British maker Chris Eaton and which appears to have inspired Altarwind's design.
Renowned Austrian hurdy-gurdy player Matthias Loibner is set to perform at the Bray Jazz Festival 2012 in Co Wicklow, Ireland. The performance takes place at 1830 on Sunday 6th May 2012 in the Bray Town Hall. More information and tickets here.
Graeme McCormack of Antiquated Strings has uploaded another of his fabulous hurdy-gurdy construction plans. Ideal for the home builder, or simply as a beautiful poster for your wall. He writes:
I have just finished Drawing up the Henri 111 Renaissance Hurdy Gurdy. I have modelled it on an existing instrument from Paris circa 1750. The main deviation from the original is that it can play a chromatic 2 octaves, has adjustable bridges and string lifting mechanisms. I have also changed the internal frame to use smaller wood stock. The original has solid end blocks that needed large wood stock to cut them from. There are 9 x A1 size sheets to this plan. I will add more written information as I make this gurdy.
Full size PDF versions of the plans in 9 parts available on his website here.

Gweltaz Hervé – soprano saxophone. François Badeau - diatonic accordion.

review - happy hour in the tiki bar in the tonga room in the fairmont hotel in san francisco
Sophie, Jason and I had a very good idea which was eating a Hawaiian all-you-can-eat buffet at a tiki bar. Tiki bars are invented in America probably. They are a wooden style bars with wooden style mask and mainly they are basically exotic. Their style is tropical and Polynesian. Tiki bars are cool because they are magical. They are dark and a little bit like a beach or a rainforest. I have never been to a tiki bar because Austria doesn't have them. But Sophie likes tiki bars a lot, so we decided to go to the famous tiki bar in Sophie's old guide book.
The tiki bar we went to was called "Tonga Room." The Kingdom of Tonga is a state in the South Pacific Ocean. Tonga is not related to Toga, and suggesting that it is would be a very stupid thing to write in your review. But maybe it could be? It isn't. But the words are nearly the same and I thought a Tonga is a Toga.
The Tonga Room is in a very famous hotel in San Francisco that is called "The Fairmont." You can tell that it is a luxury hotel because of its building. It's very luxurious and beautiful. Usually a lot of flags on a building are always a sign of luxury or of a school.
Because the Tonga Room is a tiki bar by a luxury hotel, it is very expensive. But on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday they have an "extensive" happy hour buffet. The buffet is all-you-can eat and it is only $9.50 (plus a minimum of one cocktail)! If you go for dinner, sometimes you pay $9.50 for just one dish, and then once you finish it's done, you can't ask for more (very rude). So paying $9.50 and getting more is an amazing good deal and that is why Sophie, Jason and I decided to go to the Tonga Room Tiki Bar!
We got to the Tonga Room. You enter it on California street although the hotel is on Mason street. If you want to go to the Tonga Room, go down along the hotel on California and enter the door close to the big sigh that says "Tonga." It's also the entrance to the gym ("Club One"). Even if Google Maps shows the restaurant next to the Mason entrance, it isn't. It's on California.
Next you have to ask for a table. They will offer you a table on one of the sides of the room, on a deck that looks like a ship, or in the middle of the room between a lot of people but close to the bar. If you aren't sure which table you want, get the one on the ship because it's better. If you want to be close to the bar, don't, because you have a waitress that can get you anything from the bar.
The tables are made of wood and the chairs too, but they have pillows which are really soft. That is good if you plan to stay for a while. The room is very dark and tropical. There is a candle on every table and light-lantern style strings. They are nice because they give a nice mood. There is a ship's wheel and straw hut roofs, and in the middle of the room is a giant pool, but a dark one and it's not for swimming just for mood.
The special thing about the Tonga Room is that they have storms. Every 30 minutes maybe, they have a storm with rain and thunder and lightning, but it's a trick storm because it's indoors and storms aren't indoors except for Donald Duck when he is unlucky. The thunder is just a soundtrack, and the lightning is just flashes of light bulbs. The rain is kind of real because it's water that comes down, but they made it themselves with sprinklers maybe. It's a mood thing, and it works. It lasts very short, but the room feels wetter because of the rain.
It is important that you order a cocktail. You have to, because that's the rule of the buffet. They have a selection, and every cocktail is $7.50 because it is happy hour. Normally the cocktails are more expensive. They have a selection, and one yummy cocktail I had was the Tonga Itch. It sounds nasty because itches are STDs sometimes. This is a cocktail and it is delicious. You can see all the cocktails they have HERE.
In the middle of the room is something that could be a dance floor, and there you will find the buffet. When we saw the buffet we were very surprised. It was on a table that was not very long. This is what they had:
- Chicken wings in a sweet chili sauce
- Macaroni salad
- Spicy edamame
- Fried rice with ham
- A mix of cantaloupe, honeydew and pineapple, but mostly it was honeydew
- Asian style noodles with vegetable style stuff
- Mini spring rolls with a sauce
- More chicken wings in hot sauce
I didn't miss anything. This was their buffet. I was very disappointed and sad.
This is a photo of the fruit and some chicken wings and some edamame.
- The chicken wings in the sweet chili sauce were tasty, because chicken wings and sweet chili sauce are yummy and everyone likes them. I had lots of chicken wings, and one of them had the most meat on it I have ever eaten from a chicken wing! That was nice but could also mean the chicken was bionic.
- The macaroni salad was very horrible. I dont like macaroni salad because I don't like mayo, but sometimes you eat something you don't like and it's okay. This macaroni salad was very disgusting.
- The edamame were okay. They had very good intentions because of the spicy stuff, but they didn't taste very fresh and it's edamame - it's not a real food you cook!
- The fried rice was very normal. It was fried rice, and if you don't like meat it sucks because it had bits of ham in it. I like fried rice, but it usually fried rice has stuff in it except for ham. Like pineapple. It didn't. It was boring.
- The fruit was very horrible, too. It wasn't fresh fruit and it tasted like they got it from a can. Pineapple is always yummy, even from the can, but they didn't have much pineapple, mostly honeydew that was disgusting. I used some pineapple and ate it with my fried rice so it would be less boring.
- The noodles were very oily and boring. They are the noodles you get at a Chinese buffet when you pay $4. I ate them and they were whatever.
- The spring rolls were okay. They had a sauce which was good because they were the kind of spring rolls that are dry. They tasted like spring rolls that you get and you eat but don't comment on because they are normal; not delicious or disgusting. You just eat them and talk to your friends.
- I didn't taste the other chicken wings. But they are chicken wings and hot sauce, and everyone loves chicken wings and hot sauce.
It was very disappointing and sad, and I had 4 servings because I was hungry and I wanted to eat more so it would feel less expensive to pay for a Chinese dinner at a tiki bar.
In conclusion, the tiki bar in the Tonga Room was nice, but the food was sad. But if you go to the Tonga Room and read this review first, you will feel less bad about it, because you will go for the experience and not for the food. And the experience was nice, and the cocktails were nice, and if you aren't facing the people coming in and out of the gym next door, you can see a nice room with pretty lights and have a good time.
Here are some tips:
You can have the happy hour all-you-can-eat buffet from Wednesday to Friday between 5 PM and 7 PM. I think I would suggest to go at 5 PM and then eat a lot, then wait and get more food before they take away the buffet at 7 PM. The waitress was nice, because I'm always shy to get a lot of food from all-you-can-eat buffets because the waiters are always mean when you take all you can eat, but our waitress told us to get more plates with lots of food before the buffet closes.
Another good tip is that when you eat, eat two plates, then wait. Sometimes you eat and your stomach is full, but it takes your stomach 15 or 20 minutes to tell your brain it is full! It's true! If you don't know that, you keep eating and then when you notice how full you are, you already ate too much and feel very sick.

Martin Kohler of the BMC Racing Team figured in the breakaway of the day for the second time in the Vuelta a España Thursday before finishing 12th, his best individual result of the three-week race.
Decisive Move On Tough Climb
Kohler was part of a 17-man group that escaped the peloton in the first five kilometers of the 174.6 km stage that featured five categorized climbs. On the biggest one of the day, the Swiss national time trial champion lost contact with the leaders. "There was a little gap to (Luis Leon) Sanchez and I was riding two positions behind him," Kohler said. "Sanchez saw there was a gap and sped up. I was right there and wanted to close the gap, but he was speeding up and I was at my limit. Five seconds later, there was the counter with (Joaquin) Rodriguez and five guys on his wheel and I just couldn't react." BMC Racing Team Directeur Sportif John Lelangue said it was good to see Kohler figure in a break again after he was also in one on Stage 6. "The last climb was a little bit too hard for him but at least he was there and trying," Lelangue said. "Tomorrow there is another opportunity." Francesco Gavazzi (Lampre-ISD) outsprinted Kristof Vandewalle (Quick Step) for the stage win and Juan José Cobo (Geox-TMC) retained the overall lead.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (May 8, 2010)-Making his first start in eight months in the $150,000 Mervyn LeRoy Handicap on Saturday at Hollywood Park, Rail Trip performed like a gelding who could have a memorable 5-year-old campaign.
The 1-2 favorite in the Grade II, the son of Jump Start out of the Carson City mare Sweet Trip toyed with six foes, the initial step in a quest to defend his title in the $500,000 Hollywood Gold Cup on July 10.
Under new jockey Rafael Bejarano, Rail Trip comfortably tracked pacesetter Tres Borrachos for most of the journey, took over the lead at the head of the stretch with minimal effort, drew clear and was in hand coming to the wire. The victory came even easier than the 3 ¼ length margin would indicate.
Trained by Ron Ellis for owners Mace and Samantha Siegel's Jay Em Ess Stable, Rail Trip, the 121-pound highweight, completed the 1 1/16 miles on Cushion Track in 1:42.37. The win was his seventh in 10 starts – his fourth in six attempts at Hollywood Park – and boosted his earnings to $877,790.
Fifth in two previous graded stakes appearances, Sangaree finished second at 16-1. He finished 1 ¼ lengths clear of Cigar Man, the second longest shot in the field at 28-1.
Rail Trip returned $3, $2.60 and $2.10. Sangaree paid $8 and $4.60 while the show price on Cigar Man was $7.20.
In providing both his owners and trainer with their first win in the LeRoy, Rail Trip made amends for a loss in the 2009 renewal. He was second at 3-5, defeated by 1 ¼ lengths by Ball Four.
Recently named to replace Jose Valdivia, Jr., Rail Trip's rider in his first nine starts and now a regular at Delaware Park, Bejarano was left with a tremendous first impression."Unbelievable, he just galloped,'' said Bejarano, who won three races for the second day in a row. "He surprised me a lot. I knew I had a lot of horse at the end. I thought I was going to win easy, but not this easy. It was really good. I think this horse is going to be the best horse around.''
Bred in Kentucky by Donarra Thoroughbreds, Rail Trip is likely to next surface in the $150,000 Californian. A Grade II at 1 1/8 miles, it will be run for the 57th time on June 12, then comes the Gold Cup at 1 ¼ miles.
"He was still learning how to run last year,'' said Ellis, who also won the previous race for the Siegels with favored Megastar. "He's a much more mature horse now, physically and mentally.
"He's filled out. He's a fresh horse and he's happy, but he's got to win the Gold Cup first to say he's better than last year. He sure acts like it with the way he has been training and acting.
"In this race last year it was the first time he had ever been behind horses and it schooled him real well. He learned a lot. He put it together each time after that.''
Tres Borrachos, who was second behind Rail Trip in last year's Gold Cup, faded to fourth after setting moderate fractions (24.45, 48.70 and 1:12.66 for six furlongs), then came Dakota Phone, the 4-1 second choice, Slew's Tiznow and Art Currency.
Leading rider Tyler Baze had a pair of wins on Saturday. He holds a 20-17 advantage over Bejarano. Joel Rosario, who also won twice, is third with 13 victories.
Hollywood Park will conclude the third week of its spring-summer meet on Sunday. Post time is 1 p.m.
The prime attraction on the nine race Mother's Day program is the $100,000 Railbird Stakes for 3-year-old fillies.
A Grade III at seven furlongs, the Railbird is headed by Tanda. A daughter of Sweetsouthernsaint trained by Dan Hendricks, she will be looking for her second stakes win in a row. The Florida bred won the Santa Paula, which is also a Grade III, on March 28 at Santa Anita.
Eight others are scheduled to run after the Saturday morning scratch of Stockings. The Railbird goes as the seventh.

New video card launches from AMD and NVIDIA are almost always reviewed on hardware that's less than 12 months old. That's not an arbitrary decision -- it helps reviewers make certain that GPU performance isn't held back by older CPUs and can be particularly important when evaluating the impact of new interfaces or bus designs. The downside of this policy is that it leaves a gap in product coverage. Gamers with older systems often miss out on whether or not a new graphics card will be a meaningful upgrade for aging systems. That's particularly important as the speed of the desktop replacement cycle has slowed. Here, we're going to compare the performance impact of upgrading the graphics card on an older system that doesn't have access to any of the substantial performance gains Intel introduced with Nehalem in late 2008. Our upgrade card of choice is an EVGA GeForce GTX 660 SuperClocked with 2GB of RAM:
Can A New GPU Rejuvenate A 5 Year Old Gaming PC?
Kudos to Joel for a great story angle. I've been wondering this myself as GPUs have become more and more efficient at offloading the rendering pipeline. Good stuff.
Editor In Chiefhttp://hothardware.com
The only thing i dislike about this test is why you would use an quad-core and not a dual-core which most people sat with 5 years ago. So the test would have been best to try by using a dual-core.
Is the primes of this article accurate considering this is a old pc but it was like top of the line for when it came out? The only reason I say this is because anyone with a gaming pc using parts that old might not be on the same boat motherboard and cpu or even ram wise.
"Is the primes of this article accurate considering this is a old pc but it was like top of the line for when it came out?"
It wasn't.
If we date from the youngest component (the GTX 260), the motherboard was new -- but the X48, X38, and P35 were equally fast when considering single GPU configurations. The X38 and X48 had an advantage over P35 in multi-GPU tests because the P35's dual-GPUs were configured in an x16 / x4 configuration with the second slot hanging off the south bridge.
The Q6600 launched on November 2, 2006. The GTX 260 was released in June, 2008. By the time the GPU was new, the CPU had been on the market nearly two years and there were faster 45nm chips available. Furthermore, the GTX 260 was slower than both the GTX 280 and AMD's Radeon HD 4800 family of cards, which launched in summer, 2008. It was Nvidia's second-fastest card, but it wasn't the second-fastest card on the market.
As for the overall system build, this was, in fact, my system for several years. It's a balanced upper-end rig that wasn't top of the line when new, but still offered excellent performance.
yep, they should have used Dual Core CPU and an PCI-E 1.0 or 1.1 not 2.0 :/
It was good artice about upgrade to new video card. I Already upgraded to new HIS Radeon 7870 GHz Edition about 1 1/2 month ago. It currenty in my tower that is bit over 1 year old. No problems with it.
I think that the story stands on it own. Getting a new GPU will help your performance. If you want to nit-pick the system that Joel used in this test, consider that it's what he had at the time. If you want to see results from other base systems, please do so and post your results.
The GTX-660 card performed well, and would be an improvement over many of the cards we use. I would love to have a pair of them for SLI use.
Thanks for the comparison Joel.
Dogs are great judges of character, and if your dog doesn't like somebody being around, you shouldn't trust them.
No single system can account for all possible variables. It's true that PCIe 1.1 vs. 2.0 could make a difference. So could dual vs quad-core. Expanding the test to cover a dual-core would've doubled the amount of work, if I even had one handy (and I don't).
But if you've got a dual-core C2D system, a used quad-core Q6600 can be had on Ebay for $55. The 45nm Q9550 (2.83GHz) is available for $100.
Well the it still should have been a dual core CPU... It's true that not many had quad cores 5 years ago and youth no 2 systems are the same a more standard baseline could have been used. Upgrading a computer 5 years old with bleeding edge tech at the time is a little unfair it's like giving the GTX 660 the best possible chance to perform well while on a dualcore the performance gains might become more negligible. Also with top hardware like that makes justifying a mobo/CPU/ram upgrade less likely but someone with a standard system might see higher gains going that route over a new videocard.
Overall anything that gives old hardware new life I'm all for!
Regardless of the specific components, I think this article shows that, yes, a GPU upgrade can breathe new life into an aging system. Well done.
I'll be happy to write you a custom story for my usual article fee and the dual core CPU. :)
I put this story together using components I had on hand, with equipment I had purchased for personal use. I promise you, I didn't build my rig in 2008 so that in 2013, I could write an article painting the GTX 660 in the best possible light. :P
This was my experience with almost identical hardware: P35 mobo in my case, and 8GB of RAM, but the same Q6600 and various quality SSD's over the years. I moved from the original 8800GT to a 460ti to a 660ti and noticed big improvements in each case.
That Q6600 was a beast, especially overclocked 150%... I love science.
It is a great article :) Thank you.
I'm an owner of Q9300@3GHz which is about the same as overclocked Q6600.
There is an 8GB of 1100Mhz DDR2, Intel 330 SSD and GTX570.
And that supposed to drive gaming on 24" 1920x1200 monitor.
One of my favored games is WoT which runs on pretty ugly written engine which rapes your system.
One of my friend uses GTX2xx card, but coupled with i7 (second gen).
We both have to lower gfx quality to almost minimum to get in to the 60fps range (ensures no drops below 35fps) and we both get the same fps.
From what I feel, the next GPU upgrade will require whole system upgrade since the CPU will struggle to feed the GPU.
I don't know if many current video cards will saturate existing PCI-E 2.0 or 3.0 bandwidth yet. (even in pairs)
I have two GTX-570s running SLI in my 2600K PC and they don't do it.
I have two Radeon R7770s running Crossfire in my FX-4170 and they don't use all of my PCI-E bandwidth either.
I do know that I went from a GTX-285 2GB card to a GTX-570 1.25GB card and saw a huge difference in game play when I did the swap.
The GTX-285 was a fine card but it didn't do DX11.
Actually, this Christmas I had acquired an old dell XPS 600 that was made in 2006 with a nvidia 7900 GS card, 512 MB of ram, a Pentium D (3.4 Ghz) processor, and no operating system (well it didn't boot after posting). So I bought 2 GTX 550 ti's and 4 GB ddr2 of value ram. So after experiencing first had as to what it happens after putting a couple of new GPU's in a pc I can say honestly say it does breath new life into an old, outdated system.
I'll be happy to write you a custom story for my usual article fee and the dual core CPU. :) " LOL
Seriously though, I'm kinda surprised that you were able to get the 660 to run on that motherboard, but then again, since you used DDR2 memory I guess the board prolly supports PCI 2.0.
I have an old HP a1017c system that came out when PCIe was new. I have a Zotac Geforce 7200GS in it and tried to get a Sapphire 5570 to work to no avail.
I don't think he could have used a PCI 1.0 or 1.1 motherboard. A 2.0 card won't work in those slots.
Meh, the EVGA 680 I got through NewEgg overheated after a minute in any game more demanding than Mass Effect 3. Now the ASUS 680 I got to replace it; that's quality.
AMD and NV have candidly said that modern GPUs don't stress PCIe 3.0 vs. 2.0. If they did, the vendors themselves would have told us. I can pick up differences in synthetic benchmarks designed to measure PCIe bus bandwidth, but I mainly used those for confirming that things were working as they ought.
If you're on a Prescott-era Pentium D, you're losing huge frame rates. What we've said about CPU upgrades possibly not being a major factor doesn't apply to any system using a Prescott-derived Pentium 4. Those chips were miserable for gaming and the benefits of switching to something newer could be 30-50%. That's even comparing a Core 2 Duo to a Pentium-D.
If you've got a pair of 550s, I guarantee your CPU *will* hold you back materially in a lot of games.
I haven't checked an EVGA GTX 680, but most early cards from all vendors follow NV's reference designs closely. If you had a GPU overheating, it's possible that there was a problem with the card or the card's BIOS rather than the vendor.
"By CDeeter on Jan 24, 2013
actually you would be quite wrong. 2.0 cards work in 1.0 and 1.1 slots because of backwards compatibility. The main changes between 1.0 1.1 2.0 and 3.0 are throughput based changes. meaning higher transfer rates between card and motherboard.
I for instance had an 8800gtx which is a 2.0 card on a system with a 1.1 PCIe port which worked just fine.
Thanks for the report. I was looking at getting a new CPU since mine has always been the weak point of my system. Plus I was looking at a new Video card to replace my GTX285 and replace the 8gig of ram with 16. And of course use these as hand me downs for my wifes computer. Great Report, just what I needed

Joel H; yeahhhh no thank you. No need to get defensive either I didn't knock your article but the premise of "breathing new life in an aging system" isn't exactly correct in this situation. We all know adding a new videocard will add "new life" to ANY computer of any age as long as it fits... yes any and we all knew that already including you. So this article was really about finding how much performance is really gained. But many of us don't have top end gear from 5 years ago so this article is really pointless in determining whether someone should upgrade an old PC videocard or how much performance would be gained. All it does is prove new hardware can help old hardware perform better. Old news.
That's how you get defensive.
"But many of us don't have top end gear from 5 years ago."
I talked to a few system vendors who confirmed that among enthusiasts, the Q6600 was the most popular CPU of this time period. You didn't own one. Lots of other people didn't, either. No problem.
"All it does is prove new hardware can help old hardware perform better."
The question of any investigative article of this nature is "How much?"
I'm amused at your declaration that this isn't news because I myself had no idea what the results would look like. Several things about these outcomes surprised me:
The GTX 260 was faster than I expected in modern titles. The GTX 660 gave a larger FPS increase than I expected it would. Even tossing out Civ V, the GTX 660 upgrade improved framerates by over 50%.
Power efficiency was also better than anticipated.
When I upgraded from my Old GTX260 216 (on the Intel 775 platform with Q9550 and a Gigabyte EP-45ud3) I was surprised to see that BFBC2 only picked up about 20 fps on low settings. The amazing thing was when you cranked up the settings. The GTX 260 on the highest settings would struggle to maintain 30 - 35 FPS and would often dip into the 20's. The new GTX560ti would never go below 45 fps on the highest settings. And the heat difference was pretty amazing as well.
One thing I notice about reviews like this they always run on high or even ultra instead of show a frame rate that is playable on both cards. NVidia says my system will run on ultra settings. I'm sorry but an average of 40 fps IS NOT PLAYABLE. The frequent dips down into the twenties and the associated lags make it targeting very difficult.
I just updated from a Q9550 and a Gigabyte EP-45ud3r motherboard with 8 gig of ram to running an I5 3570K and an ASRock Extreme 4 Motherboard with 8 gig of ram. Both systems had Win8 an SSD and a EVGA GTX560ti gpu.
I saw only a minor increase in the overall speed playing BF3 but I did notice a much better ability to run with higher settings. I like to limit my frame rate because I believe the game plays better if the frame rate is stabile. I was running a mix of low and medium setting and I was able to maintain a stabile 60 fps frame rate. Now I can run a mix of medium and high settings and get a very consistent 60fps.
I hope later this summer I can get a better gpu.
Still waiting for the time that MMO's are taken into account with these kind of reviews. Most MMO's are CPU and RAM heavy and not so much on the GPU. I play EQ2 and SWTOR and I recently upgraded my mobo, CPU and RAM and the improvement is amazing. I don't think that only a new GPU would have had the same difference, because in EQ2 my RAM usage goes up to 5 GB within seconds and only had 4GB, and that was my major bottleneck
Dude... my PC from five years ago which is still in service had PCIe 2.0. Built at the end of 2007 using the QX6850. That said, most cards struggle to even max out PCIe 1.1 bandwidth. There are many, many posts on this topic. Linus from TechTips and AnandTech, HardOCP and many more!
Great article. This is a long known fact in hardware forums... before you upgrade your GPU, make sure your PSU can handle it! A lot of dual cores from the Q6600 era have only started showing their age last year (as per my non-scientific poll caused by friends going my computer is slow guy, fix it).
Have to agree with Dave, realneil, Paul, et al ; this was indeed a really worthwhile initiative on the part of Joel ! Nice to know that a GPU upgrade does, in practice, make so great a difference even when other components aren't the absolutely latest and greatest. Relevant for me, as a little more than a year ago I upgraded my main box with a GA-990FXA-UD3 motherboard, a Phenom II X 4 955 processor, a FSP650-80EGN PSU, and 16 GB RAM, but retained an ancient GeForce 7900 GTX GPU. I've been looking for a good deal on a GTX 660, but now that AMD has released a driver that seems to work decently with Linux OSs, I'm thinking of widening my search. Good to learn that such an upgrade would have significant (positive) effects !...
Really interesting article, Joel.
I'm in a pretty similar situation to your test rig - Q6600, 4Gb DDR2, GeForce 250 GTS, MSI P6N nForce 650 sli.
However, it's probably the MB that is the limiting factor in my rig. I'm about to spend a bit of cash on an upgrade, and am all-set to buy a new i5 3570k, a z77 MB (pr. gigabyte Z77-D3H) and 8Gb DDR3. However, you're article makes me pause for thought. I think I'll probably go with the CPU & MB as gaming comes second to image editing, but I'm still torn...
Excellent article Joel.
I think this would merit following up with a comparison with a system with a modern CPU/Motherboard but the same 660 graphics card to see what sort of effect that would produce.
I am sitting on a 6 year old gaming system with an E6600 and I upgraded it last year with a GTX 560. It handles most games well, but I am curious what sort of performance benefits I would see for the considerable money necessary to replace the motherboard, CPU and RAM for a new intel i5/i7 system.
I thought the article was well done. My system 5 years ago was similar, except the video card was slower (8800GTS 512MB) and I had 4GB of RAM instead of 3GB. Same rocking Q6600 though. I didn't notice, but was your processor overclocked? The two things that I was curious about was, first of all, would an overclock of the processor to 3Ghz or 3.2Ghz help with the framerates much and also, what about adding another 1GB of RAM? I guess another question that comes to mind is, how badly did the SSD skew the results? If you upgraded only the video card in a system from back then that would almost certainly have had a standard HDD, I wonder how much slower it would be? In effect, you have to add the price of the SSD into the equation, but it's still a worthy upgrade for an older system at ~$300.
"One thing I notice about reviews like this they always run on high or even ultra instead of show a frame rate that is playable on both cards."
When I put this review together, I decided on a few things.
1) I wanted to use DX10/DX11. The GTX 260 was NV's third generation of GPU to offer DX10 support. Dropping back to DX9 would've improved the card's frame rates, but would've also meant more screenshotting in an attempt to capture the visual differences. BF3 doesn't even have a DX9 mode for PCs, so this would've tossed in more variables.
2) Civ V was the only game that wasn't playable. Borderlands and BF3 were choppy in places, but I extensively playtested both.
I picked settings that *pushed* the GTX 260, but didn't overwhelm it. That was purposeful.
Joel H:Reilneil, AMD and NV have candidly said that modern GPUs don't stress PCIe 3.0 vs. 2.0. If they did, the vendors themselves would have told us. I can pick up differences in synthetic benchmarks designed to measure PCIe bus bandwidth, but I mainly used those for confirming that things were working as they ought.
Agreed, this is why adding a better video card nets you a better experience almost every time. If your PSU can handle the extra power draw that some of these new cards have, (yes, I'm aware that the newest GPU designs use less power overall, but I also know that a top notch PSU makes a huge improvement too)
PCIe 2.0 bandwidth is wide enough and fast enough to give you great performance on any decently coded game if you have the GPU to handle it. That's why I agree that a GPU upgrade is such a great way to improve your gaming experience and my first recommended upgrade to others most of the time.
But if they have the cash for a whole new platform, that's how I steer them.
I resemble that remark ...
E8500 (Core 2 Duo, 3.16), HD4850, 4gb ram, g41 motherboard (@Eshirou: PCI-E 1.0a), 7200 RPM storage. Windows XP 32 bit. Pretty much a second class machine compared to the one used in the article (depending on whether an app utilizes more than one core).
Borderlands 2 was completely playable at 1080p with the eye candy turned way down. The only problem was a bug that would hang the application at selected spots unless I restricted the CPU to 1 core.
I upgraded from the 4850 to a 7850 last month (which runs fine in the 1.0a socket, didn't even have to upgrade the BIOS) mainly because it came free with Far Cry 3 and the 4850 is now restricted to legacy drivers/DX 10. Much faster now, but then I don't really play many titles that are CPU intensive.
Hmm I wonder what the issue is then for me that I couldn't go from a 7200gs to a HD 5570.
Well this article sure got a nice amount of attention. Keep um coming Joel!
I've recently upgraded an E5200 (@3.8GHz) on a P35 board and 4GB RAM with an HD7850, which was brought to 1200/5200.
It plays every game at quite high settings and a 1920x1200 resolution. Thanks to MLAA/FXAA, the biggest issue with lower end machines has been largely dealt with.
Easy times for gaming indeed.
This is nice and all, but I built my rig in late 2005, early 2006, coming in at $2000...
Right before C2Duo came out I bought a P4 3.6ghz w/ HT, 2gb ddr2 667 ram, and an Asus p5n2d-sli mobo (non-deluxe). Quite good stuff for back then, haven't been able to afford an upgrade, now its poo-poo.
Started with a 7900GT video card, now running a 9800GTX (when it still cost $300) Can't upgrade CPU OR ram because mobo is too old.
Currently running Win 7 32bit Ultimate, wish I could upgrade. Living week to week, sigh. On a plus note, I upgraded my cooling fan to a Hyper 212 Evo and can now OC to 4.23 ghz :) Been through 2 PSU's, 2 DVD Drives, and some burnt out power cables (ouch!) still running!

Air Jordan VII Retro "Hare" – Michael Jordan Autographed Pair on eBay
June 12th, 2013 by Brendan Dunne | 5 comments
How long will it be before we see the Air Jordan VII again? In past times we'd expect the sneaker to stay away for a good four years or so, but we're in a totally different climate for 2013. The shoe was last on shelves in 2011, so we wouldn't be surprised if it came back around as soon as next year. We also wouldn't be surprised to see the "Hare" Air Jordan VII among them. Shown here is a pair that came packaged in the CDP set up, one that was subsequently made all the more covetous thanks to the presence of Michael Jordan's autograph. Get more angles on the pair after the jump and then bid on this Air Jordan VII "Hare" version blessed by MJ from kick_culture on eBay.

Is it possible to get a Triad with Elite limbs? The combination seems very appealing to me.
Is it possible to get a Triad with Elite limbs? The combination seems very appealing to me.
It sure is, and let me tell yah with the nitrous cams it is one smooth drawing bow. The A to A is around 40", I shoot for Martin not Rytera or i might just have one in the stable.... It is like the middle brother between the older Scepter III and the new P-3. What is your draw length?
My draw length is about 28 3/8. I would love to shoot one does anyone know what the brace height would be. In theory it seems like a great bow.
That bow is right up your alley. I can't remember what the brace is but i drew one at Nationals and man is it nice. I want to say it is close to 8" with the A cams. It would feel very much like the P-2 you like so much. The riser will probably feel a little stiffer due to the bracing. The grip is super sweet it melts into your hand.
my draw is a mere 27" so the string angle on the P-3 is perfect for me. For you though at 28.27" that Triad would probably feel like it was made just for you. The other thing to consider is the X-Cams. If you go that route the brace height becomes even less of a consideration.
That is one nice little bow !!!!

Thanks everyone for picking up my slack and forgetting to update the guesses
Thank you for helping me out Kathy
Not a problem, but stop slacking off.
Anna LeBlanc (07-09-2012)
Current lowest team is 45 degrees on the 2nd. So far, Charlie is the closest. But we have plenty of time to go for the month.
KathyC (07-07-2012), Snow Miser (07-07-2012)
tdb, when I hit the Thank You button, I may have hit the report post by accident first.
So, I'm running the contest and I cant even read the darn E6 report. Good figure!
I think I got it this time. The lowest we have seen now for the month is 39 degrees and that was set last night. Better?
Anna LeBlanc (07-16-2012)
Well it's past the halfway point & Kathy C has a hold on it right now. Nice pick! It's been really warm & has now cooled a bit, but I think after tonight it may creep back upward for a little longer.
It's been fun to watch!

"This is the meeting where we elect school board officers and when we do the appointments to several committees," Superintendent Howard Hinesley said during Thursday's work session.
The board president on Monday will appoint members to each committee as well as committee chair. These include building and grounds, curriculum, policy, finance, technology and personnel and extra curricular.
Finance Committee Chairman Kelley Dial reported the system collected $325,267 in Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax during the month of November, down from October's $356,612, but still above expectations.
In other school news, Hinesley said the system's 2013-2014 school calendar will be up for review during Monday's regular business session at 6 p.m. in the central office boardroom, 15 Nelson St., in Cartersville. He explained parents and teachers have voted on and thus far approved one of two calendar options.
"The calendar is similar to the one we've had the last couple of years," Assistant Superintendent Ken Clouse said. "The only adjustment is the fall break.
"It will still be two days for the students, but it will also be two days off for staff. Instead of being the Thursday and Friday before Columbus Day, it will be the Tuesday and Wednesday of Columbus Day."
He said several parents have expressed wanting the break moved so it will coincide with businesses who close on Columbus Day.
The board on Monday also will vote on a number of annual housekeeping items during the meeting. These items include:
• The board being paid a per diem in lieu of expenses for attending board meetings.
• The adoption and application of travel regulations for local systems adopted by the state.
• A legal liability resolution the board reimburse its members and employees for any deductible portion of a claim made on the legal liability insurance provided by the board.
• The continued appointment of Harry B. White as legal counsel to represent the board in 2013.
• A resolution to approve participation in Northwest Georgia Regional Educational Services Association for the 2013 and 2014 school years and appoint Hinesley as the system's representative to NWGA RESA's board of control.
• A resolution to approve board member attendance at Georgia School Boards Association and National School Boards Association conferences and training sessions in 2013 and that board members be authorized to attend said conferences and training sessions as official representatives of the board during 2013.
• A resolution to approve the continued establishment of the Sex Education/AIDS Prevention Education Advisory Committee and membership for 2013 on an as-needed basis.
• A resolution to approve the regular monthly meetings schedule of the board and its committees for 2013.
• The blanked approval for students and personnel to attend and participate in overnight and out-of-state events first approved by the school's principal and sanctioned by the Georgia High School Association or state superintendent.
• Declaring surplus or transfer items.
• Accepting the FY 2012 comprehensive annual finance report as prepared by Mauldin & Jenkins, CPA.

Memo to ARL and SPARC members informing them of SPARC's new administrative agreement with New Venture Fund (NVF), a fiscal sponsorship organization located in Washington, DC
This memo summarizes the key rulings in the Georgia State University (GSU) lawsuit concerning the use of electronic course reserves and discusses some possible consequences for libraries generally.
Memorandum from Bernard J. Knight, Jr. discussing the application of the fair use doctrine to the use of non-patent literature (NPL) in the patent examination process.
Memorandum of understanding concerning UMN becoming the Regional Federal Depository Library for the State of Michigan.
Opinion concerning the sections of Title 44 of the United States Code that would require legislative modifications in order to allow for the sharing of resources and responsibilities among the nation's federal regional depository libraries.
As called for by Section 1009 of the America COMPETES Act, the attached Principles provide guidance and direction to agencies regarding the release of scientific research results.
In October 2001, the U.S. Geological Survey requested that the Government Printing Office instruct Federal Depository Libraries that received a CD-ROM on characteristics of large surface-water supplies in the United States to destroy their copies. Shortly thereafter, the Superintendent of Documents ordered those libraries participating in the Federal Depository Library Program to withdraw this item and immediately destroy it. Subsequently, the Federal Bureau of Investigation visited several Federal Depository Libraries to determine whether that order had been carried out. This occurred without consultation with the GPO or the Geological Survey (U.S.G.S.). This series of events, and the prospect that in the wake of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attack there may be additional requests for removal or destruction of federal materials by Federal Depository Libraries (FDLs), raises a number of questions of interest and importance to librarians. This memorandum sets forth below, in a question-and-answer format, the answers to many of those questions.

ServPro a national sponsor for Red Cross 'Ready Rating'
ServPro, a disaster recovery and cleanup franchise system, has signed on as a national sponsor of the American Red Cross Ready Rating program, a free, web-based program designed to help businesses, organizations and schools become better prepared for emergencies.
"This partnership just makes perfect sense and truly completes the readiness equation for businesses and other property owners in the Salisbury area," said Rick Isaacson, executive vice president of Servpro Industries Inc. "The Red Cross Ready Rating Program allows individuals to assess their readiness for a disaster, so they can take all necessary steps before disaster strikes to protect their property from damage and loss. But, when disaster does strike, knowing what to do and who to call saves time — and fast response is key to minimizing damage and downtime."
With the threat of severe weather such as high winds, downpours, flash flooding, fires caused by lightning strikes and tornadoes, ServPro urges Salisbury-area property owners to visit the Red Cross Ready Rating website at http://readyrating.org to complete a 123-point self-assessment of preparedness for weather-related emergencies.

Attorney to speak Wednesday at Caring Connections seminar
Attorney Clinton S. Forbis Jr. will discuss common will-related problems to avoid at the Wednesday, March 27, Caring Connections seminar at the Whitley's Annex Chapel, 1748 Dale Earnhardt Blvd., Kannapolis.
Lunch is at 11:30 a.m. Forbis will then discuss wills, estates and ways to avoid common will-related problems. Failure to have a will is probably the greatest one and it leaves the distribution of your property up to the state's inheritance laws, which may differ from your idea of how things should be handled.
Comfort Keepers In-Home Care and Whitley's Funeral Home have partnered for a monthly luncheon/seminar to educate seniors and the community about issues related to aging gracefully. Call 704-640-5152 to reserve a seat before noon Tuesday, March 26.

"Engraved Business card holder"
By Jennifer Barley
Comments: I was very pleased with this product. I have been searching for a few months for something of this quality for my Father as a gift, and even he was impressed. It also came quickly in the mail.
By Koty-Houston
Comments: I bought this gift along with several other items. The item was personalized for my boss who was promoted. The item was better than what I saw online. It was the bomb.
"Brown Business Card Holder"
By Suzanne Siegel
Comments: I bought this a a gift for my husband on the occasion of having his first piece of artwork selected for a juried show. He was absolutely thrilled and announced that it suited him perfectly. The stitching is attractive, and the engraving is lovely. Of course, I then had to design him a business card to go in it. We're hoping that a large gallery owner will want them to discuss a one-man show.
