Amazes me people are stupid enough to host alpha copies of an OS on their HTTP sites.

It won't gain you members if you post that sort of crap there.

Actualy it was suposed to be temporary so he could get it to his IRC gang.

then they could leak it.

I guess he changed his mind.

the HTTP was never Suposed to be given out, FTP Maybe, but no HTTP.

Well, Yes it was up for about 3-5 hours.

But that wasn't Suposed to get out.

and somehow it did <_<

I should thank you for the nice fast download link. I grabbed it before it got removed. Anyway it may or may not have been right for this to leak but i honestly don't care. Emo did what he thought was right, you may not think it was but that's your opinion and thats all it will ever be.

Anyways thats all i have to say. And oh yeah i gotta say hi to blackcomb too :)

Yes it's true, it did leak.

Anyways I think that this build should have not been leaked but when it was there was no stopping it, so i really don't care. After the ftp goes down then there will be no one hosting in the irc channel because currently there is no one hosting it but me.

if you want a copy, just find someone who has it, don't even bother, ftp is constantly full.

:yes:

So why wasnt this supposed to leak? I have it but Im not supposed to leak it to anyone for some strange reason. Is it because of the DCE effects that this one was not wanted to leak? And what info did Microsoft give out that made longhornfiles(I think that was who had it) remove it? Come on give us peons some info, we feel the need for info.If you feel the need to flame me for asking questions then go ahead,it only shows how helpful or not helpful this site is, and I find it extremly helpful.

Everything you need to know is in that thread. Also. Please do NOT share this around. Thanks.

Im pretty sure I can get it from a friend of a friend, I'll download / install / play around / delete. If that's breaking the law, tough - dont hate the player hate the game.

Well all builds are leaks of beta OS which only official beta testers should have, 3718 is no different - its a leak now, like all others, dont make this a big deal now, the person whom it came from (not emoaddcit) said its fine, share it, its just a BUILD LIKE ALL OTHERS, WHICH CONTAINS SOME STUFF, it wasnt supposed to leak because some people got it thru trust bonds but now they are broken - and its over, let it die, its on p2p - get it just like youd get all other builds..

Thats that :)

you could have made a new thread. Now everyone is gonna come out of the woodwork thinking 3718 is being brought up again. Anyway...to answer your question, yes.

Actually, you're wrong - no you dont, not for 3718 - any dx8 card will do fine :).

Actually, you're wrong - no you dont, not for 3718 - any dx8 card will do fine :).

i was going to say that, but i didnt want to get into a debate with him and keep this thread alive. just a little piece of advice though, dont mess with 3718, get 4074 if you want cool effects.

Edit: dx 8.1 works for 4074 too so youll be ok.

oohps...needed more coffee this morning :s Sorry bout that guys...was totally in a 4074 frame of mind LOL. Nuka's right...grab 4074, and it works in all aspects (heck, even worked on my laptop, which I can't get either 4050 or 4074 on, damn something with the bios caching grrrness)

    • The 2TB Samsung 990 PRO NVMe SSD hits lowest price in over three months by Sayan Sen Yesterday, we covered a really good deal wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 NVMe PCIe Gen4 SSD for a low price of just $400 with a special discount coupon. That's just $100 per TB, making it a very good offer during these hard times. The deal is still live, so you can check it out in its dedicated article here if you do not want to miss out. Meanwhile, if you don't have that kind of budget but still wish to buy an SSD for a good price, the 2TB variant of the TeamGroup SSD at $280 its lowest price in over three months. Meanwhile, those seeking 2TB but faster performance can check out Samsung's 990 PRO, which has hit the lowest price also in the last quarter or so, as it's on sale for $370 (purchase links under the specs table down below). Thus, you want a faster drive, get the 990 Pro, or you want more capacity, grab the TeamGroup 4TB linked in the first para. The 990 PRO is a PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD and still one of the fastest drives available today for under $500. Speaking of fast, sequential reads and writes are rated at 7450 MB/s and 6900 MB/s, respectively. The random throughputs for reads and writes are 1400K IOPS and 1550K IOPS, respectively. The 990 PRO is based on Samsung's 7th Gen V-NAND flash, and it too is TLC. It packs 2 gigs of LPDDR4 DRAM cache, which helps the random performance. The endurance rating for this is 1200 TBW (terabytes written), which should be sufficient for most users. The Samsung 990 PRO is compatible with the PlayStation 5, but if you are going to use the 990 PRO on a PC, check out the Samsung Magician app that lets you track your drive's health, update its firmware, customize various settings, and more. The tech specs are given below: Specification TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 2TB Samsung 990 PRO 2TB Interface PCIe 4.0 x4, NVMe 1.4 PCIe Gen 4.0 x4, NVMe 2.0 Form Factor M.2 2280 M.2 2280 Controller InnoGrit Controller Samsung In-house Controller NAND Flash 3D TLC 3D TLC DRAM Cache None (HMB supported) 2GB LPDDR4 Sequential Read (Max) 5,000 MB/s 7,450 MB/s Sequential Write (Max) 4,500 MB/s 6,900 MB/s Random Read (4K) Up to 600,000 IOPS Up to 1,400,000 IOPS Random Write (4K) Up to 700,000 IOPS Up to 1,550,000 IOPS TBW (Endurance) 1,300 TBW 1,200 TBW MTBF 3,000,000 hours 1,500,000 hours Operating Temperature 0°C to 70°C 0°C to 70°C Storage Temperature -40°C to 85°C -40°C to 85°C Shock Resistance 1,500G / 0.5ms 1,500G / 0.5ms Heatsink Patented Graphene Heat Spreader No Get them at the links below: Samsung 990 PRO SSD 2TB (MZ-V9P2T0B/AM): $369.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) TEAMGROUP T-Force G50 2TB SSD (TM8FFE002T0C129): $279.99 (Sold by TeamGroup, Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • If you can't spell a simple word that 2nd graders learn, your entire argument is suspect.
    • And here goes the "Won't someone think of the children" brigade. Get stuffed mate. This has NOTHING to do with making the internet safe. It's about tracking adults, spying on your online activity, and sending the boys around when they don't like something you post. Also, again, parliament have voted TWICE against this, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. THAT is anti-democratic bullsh**. They will use this law to track you, they will use this law to control you, and they will use this law to punish you if they don't like what you do, even if it's legal. And your data? Say bye bye to that. It'll be on the darkweb in weeks. I'm not some rando online. I've been an IT professional for 40 years, many of it in security. I know exactly what this means and what will happen to your data. I do not consent and I will not comply.
    • "...but it may not be Microsoft's fault" seems like a reasonable way to tease what is going on without leaving the user with a false impression that an update is the problem. A title isn't a summery, it is meant to entice the user to read the article. It should not contain a misleading premise; which this title does not. You could maybe complain that the first paragraph should have included that detail. The writing style popularized over 100 years ago in newspapers will cover the most important information as soon as possible with details and nuance added later; the idea being that with each new paragraph you have less of the reader's focus.
    • Samsung Galaxy XR arrives in the UK with new AI and enterprise features by Fiza Ali Samsung is bringing its Galaxy XR headset to the UK several months after the device made its debut as the first headset built on Google's Android XR platform. The headset was first teased in late 2024 alongside Google's introduction of Android XR before making its commercial debut in 2025. Developed in collaboration with Google and Qualcomm, Galaxy XR combines mixed reality experiences with Gemini-powered AI features, allowing users to interact with digital content using voice, gestures, and visual inputs. While the hardware itself remains largely unchanged from the version Samsung unveiled last year, the company is using the UK launch to spotlight several software enhancements that have arrived through recent updates. Among the most notable additions is deeper integration with Google's ecosystem. Galaxy XR users can explore destinations through Google Maps' Immersive View, receiving AI-powered recommendations and contextual information from Gemini while navigating virtual environments. Furthermore, entertainment experiences have also expanded; users can watch 180-degree and 360-degree videos on YouTube, browse spatial content converted into 3D, and ask Gemini questions about on-screen content without interrupting playback. Samsung is also highlighting mixed-reality features such as Circle to Search, which allows users to identify real-world objects through hand gestures while using the headset's video pass-through mode. Another feature automatically converts photos and videos into spatial 3D experiences. Moreover, the headset now also supports Android Enterprise, allowing organisations to manage deployments using existing Android management tools. Annika Bizon, Vice President, Product and Marketing, Mobile Experience, Samsung UK & Ireland, talked about the device, stating: The headset is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 platform and features dual 4K Micro-OLED displays. The tech giant says that users can expect up to 2.5 hours of battery life. Samsung also confirmed that Galaxy XR will continue receiving software and security updates as the company works alongside Google and Qualcomm to expand the Android XR ecosystem. Galaxy XR is now available for pre-order and will go on sale on 8 July. Customers interested in trying the headset before launch can visit Samsung KX in London and selected Samsung Experience Stores from 17 June. Finally, the company will also host a livestream on 19 June showcasing the headset's capabilities and answering questions from prospective customers.
