It also doesn't keep the case as cool, though. If you are worried about keeping it cool, the best strategy is pulling the warm air out instead of pushing cool air in. I can't find the article at the moment but one group tried several fan configurations and found that many popular concepts weren't true at all.
Many websites have wised up to that. They'll often just print the page and not the whole article.
What about all the other colors of people that this also happens to? It isn't exclusively to black people.
That's a fair question. I can think of many things that I do and new features in programs that I love that would probably easily run on a very old computer. I used a 2003-era laptop until 2011 that met the vast majority of my needs. That's why I choose an i3 for my new desktop. It had excellent bang-for-the-buck and was so much faster.
Your P4 at 4GHz can't do nearly as much as a single core on a newer processor. My 2.4GHz P4 coverts DVD movies to low-res in 8 hours or so, my 2.8GHz i3 does the exact same thing in 20 minutes, 24x faster overall and 6x faster per thread.
Anyway, in response to the original post, lower power means cheaper power components that can't handle as many watts so it actually limits the amount of power the CPU can use.
Do you have any evidence of this? That sounds like pure conjecture to me.
Speed vs Price is important when comparing similar speeds. Price doesn't matter if the speed isn't good enough, which is where Intel is winning.
They still accept shit, though. The Avengers is only available in stereo, though they did finally get a 5.1 copy of Captain America(it was previously only in stereo). I find it utterly amazing that they even have recent movies only in stereo.
McDonalds doesn't even flip burgers any more. The have machines that cook both sides simultaneously now. It wouldn't take much to have a machine place and remove the burgers, as well. The fries are already dispensed from a machine so the batches are always the same size.
Those light-lined streets aren't lit anymore. Some busy streets have one light on every other light pole still powered and some streets don't have any powered lights.
The Pig Stand in San Antonio, TX often has at least 2-3 cop cars in the parking lot every time I go by.
That's something I noticed when I was case shopping recently. I've got more room for expansion slots than I know what to do with when I would really only need maybe 3 or 4(GPU, eSATA, USB 3.0). I still use my DVD drive occaionally but I've got room for 3. Maybe I could get some kind of control panel for the other slots. I've got 2 HDDs and an SSD but my case also has a dedicated SSD spot, which means I'm still not using half of my HDD slots. It all seems kind of silly.
Judging from the comments and my own experiences, your ticket prices are way off. My local one is $8/person, the snack bar is reasonably priced and much cheaper than the local theaters, plus you can bring in whatever you want. I almost forgot to mention, that $8 ticket gets you 2 movies!
I go to the one in Abilene, as well. I've also got a minivan with back seats that flip back. Tickets are cheaper than anywhere else and the food is good and cheap. Bonus points because each $8 ticket is for a double feature. We can put the kids to sleep in the back of the van and enjoy the movie. The only downside is bugs.
