3770K oc: How to overclock i7-3770k? First timer. Help : overclocking

Actual OS for an old PC or netbook / Sudo Null IT News Indeed, do not rush into this, because it may well be useful to someone. Perhaps even to you.

While I was thinking about what to do with my junk (and I had Samsung NC10 and Asus U5F lying around), I came across this text on the net. To those who understand English, the idea is, I hope, clear. And for the rest, the obvious idea is to replace the operating system on the old PC with a less demanding, but at the same time quite up-to-date. Then such a computer can be given to children for simple toys, grandmother for Skype, mom for web surfing, or even use it yourself.

If you take a squeeze and develop the idea, then you should pay attention to:

saving files on the local drive. Promises to be nimble on old hardware. It is also good for its relative popularity and support (read, it will last a long time), but it is not entirely clear whether all this usefulness is needed for an ordinary user of a weak netbook? Of the minuses — because. Since it’s native Linux, there’s little to no compatibility with Windows programs. But for me, depending on the tasks, it is quite possible for an ordinary Windows user to live with this. Fortunately, browsers and messengers are the same, and you can not be afraid of viruses. By the way, this is true for all other systems in the list below. It is quite possible to get an impression of the system from this video, even if it is not about the latest version (it is better to watch the video accelerated by 1.5 times).

2) Zorin OS Lite is an excellent and most importantly modern version of Linux, which at the same time looks like Windows and is equipped with support for running some Windows programs right out of the box. Lite version promises to work fine even on very old hardware. In the presence of a bunch of useful programs incl. the same LibreOffice, support for the Russian language and modern software available for popular Linux systems such as the famous Ubuntu. Here you can quickly see what ZorinOS is. Looks nice in my opinion.

3) Phoenix OS is an interesting thing — in fact it is modern Android, like in any smartphone, but which can be installed on a regular computer and enjoy all the benefits of this truly most popular system. Phoenix is ​​actively discussed on the forums. They say that even on an old netbook everything works smartly. It’s hard to believe, but you can easily check it 😉 Of the minuses — since most of the programs available on GooglePlay are created taking into account the fact that they will be used on a smartphone or tablet, then on a laptop they may look a little strange. In other matters, it is clearly seen from the official demo that the developers have made sure that everything is as convenient as possible, the browser and instant messengers will work perfectly, but there may be troubles typical for Android when editing documents. On the other hand, there will be up-to-date modern software and an environment familiar to owners of smartphones and tablets, and this distinguishes this option from conventional Linux systems.

4) CloudReady: Home Edition by Neverware is the latest free cloud version of Chromium OS, very close to Google’s Chrome OS. In practice, it is only a browser and all Web applications run inside it. Nothing extra. Designed specifically for netbooks. Here is a video that gives an impression of the system. Of the minuses — without the Internet, this is an almost useless thing, but when connected to the network, the entire palette of cloud services is at your service. No installations, settings, updates, antiviruses and other nonsense for you — everything is online. No regular apps work (unless you can run Android programs in a tricky way). It is installed very simply, no red-eyed dances with a tambourine for you — you launched it, connected to the network and everything is ready to go.

Think about it, maybe before you stupidly get rid of the trash with the old Windows XP, you should try to revive it a little at least programmatically, since, alas, it is not amenable to a hardware upgrade? It is quite difficult for me to help make the final choice in favor of only one of the options. I do not know all your tasks and requirements, but for some reason it seems to me that the list has developed in order of increasing preference for an ordinary inexperienced user. If you don’t need anything other than a browser, and there are enough web applications, then option 4 is an obvious choice, at the same time, the issue of data backup practically disappears, because. everything is synced to google drive. If a person has a positive experience with an Android smartphone or tablet, then, with the same Google account, the third option also looks pretty good. If you really need something specific to Windows or there is absolutely no willingness to face something new, unknown and unlike Windows, then this is the second option. Well, if a person is open to everything new and requires maximum opportunities, reliability, flexibility and support, then this is the first option. There was a translated article on Habré, which can help you choose the most suitable of these.

And it’s better to send a zombie man and a cold fast food to a landfill.

PS. Please send comments on spelling, punctuation, etc. in a personal. Everything will be fixed promptly.

Brother MFC-L3770CDW | News | Group A7

The manufacturer of computer peripherals from the Land of the Rising Sun has expanded its lineup with a dozen printers and MFPs. Our hero is the oldest multifunctional device. Like all his brothers, he is laser and color. The novelties are announced by the European and American divisions of the company. Whether the MFC-L3770CDW will conquer the Russian market is unknown.

The manufacturer of computer peripherals from the Land of the Rising Sun has expanded its lineup with a dozen printers and MFPs. Our hero is the oldest multifunctional device. Like all his brothers, he is laser and color. The novelties are announced by the European and American divisions of the company. Whether the MFC-L3770CDW will conquer the Russian market is unknown.

This unit is not remarkable for either endurance, let alone agility. But at his disposal is an effective combination of duplex and two-sided ADF. Plus, it is endowed with an impressive number of communication channels. For ease of navigation meets a small touch screen. In short, this device will compete for the attention of those buyers who prioritize additional functionality.

The machine can print a maximum of 30,000 pages per month. However, this risky trick should be performed only in case of emergency — when there is a real emergency in the office. Still, working at the limit of possibilities can adversely affect the state of the device. It’s best to stick to the recommended duty cycle of 1,500 prints per month.

The maximum resolution is 600×2400 dpi. Many of these models successfully cope with their duties and with a lower density of dots per inch. So the print quality must be decent.

Our hero develops an acceptable speed in one-way mode, but at the same time is hopelessly slow in duplex mode. The indicators are 24 and 8 pages per minute, respectively. It should take up to 14 seconds for the debut print, and 24 seconds for warming up (after waking up from sleep mode).

How fast the copier is in duplex mode is not reported. In single-sided, the speed is the same as that of the printer, except that the first print takes not 14, but 15 seconds. But the maximum resolution is much more ascetic than when printing — 600 × 600 dpi. Within one cycle, you can get 99 copies.

In the box with the purchased unit, the new owner will find cartridges for the Brother MFC-L3770CDW, each of which is rated for 1,000 pages. Exactly the same resource is demonstrated by standard versions of consumables. But the enlarged black boasts a longer power reserve than its cyan, yellow and magenta XL counterparts: 3,000 prints versus 2,300. As for the photoconductor, it must be replaced after 18,000 pages.

The flatbed scanner is equipped with a 50-sheet duplex automatic document feeder. In single-sided mode, it can digitize 27 monochrome or 21 color pages per minute. In double-sided, the numbers rise to 54 and 32, respectively. The maximum resolution when working with the ADF is 600×600 dpi, and on a tablet it is 1200×2400 dpi. There is also an equivalent — 19200×19200dpi. The results can be saved to a PC, to USB drives, to network folders, and even sent by email.

The fax also supports duplex operation. How many pages per minute it transmits and what resolution it is content with is unknown. He can «remember» up to 500 b/w pages. Plus, there is a PC-fax function, but only for OS X users.

The «load capacity» of the device is 280 sheets. Of these, 250 are in the cassette and another 30 are in the multi-purpose tray. The capacity of their receiving “colleague” is 150 prints. As for density, the minimum is 60 g / m ² , and the maximum is 163 g/m ² . A4, Letter, A5, A6, Executive, COM-10, DL, C5, Monarch — the model will get along with media of such formats. Plus, the user can set the size himself, ranging from 76×116 to 216×355 mm.
