Your Mac Hardware Setup


Recommended Posts

Finally switched from a PC after 16 years.

Late 2013 iMac

i7-4771 (3.5GHz)

32Gb RAM

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4Gb

512Mb PCIE Flash

Loving it! Should have switched years ago. Magic Trackpad is awesome!

What USB hub is that?

Sweet setup! I'm looking to get rid of my Mac mini and get a MBPr 13" and go the same way as you do with the Thunderbolt Display.

What stand is that. Super interested in it after seeing it. I love my rain stand but this looks nicer

Griffin stand from around 2007, and as such no longer in production....here is what today's version looks like http://www.amazon.com/Griffin-Technology-GC16034-Elevator-Laptop/dp/B0044RUSZM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1418681370&sr=8-1&keywords=griffin+macbook+stand&pebp=1418681368919

 

Thanks! Ive seen this version and its not bad. Super simple. The reason I like yours more is because I have a case on my macbook pro and I want it to be able to grip to the matte / glossy case

What's the logic behind the naming convention of the devices?  I cannot tell if it is movie or tv characters.

 

for failing to recognize the Alien lore, a facehugger will be your friend tonight.

Actually...as soon as I posted that I realized where it was from.  I saw the ABSE that was named weyland and the ATV as bishop and everything clicked.

i had it with the LV426, but Sulaco was the one that settle it.

    • "...a low price of just $340..." I don't think it means what you think it means.
    • This Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 32GB RAM with RGB is a great deal for limited time by Sayan Sen Memory prices have been through the roof for a while, though it seems like things might finally be getting better. If you are in the market for one, then grab this Corsair Vengeance DDR5 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5 6000 CL36 kit with RGB for a low price of just $340 (purchase link under the specs table down below). The kit is compatible with both AMD and Intel systems as it supports both EXPO and XMP overclocking profiles, respectively. 6000 MT/s is often the sweet spot for many systems as it provides ample data transfer speed while still being on Gear 1 mode. This Vengeance variant has RGB so if you love bright setups with such lighting, this is a win-win for you. The technical specifications of the Corsair Vengeance memory kit are given in the table below: Specification Value Memory Type DDR5 Memory Size (Total) 32GB Kit Configuration 2 × 16GB Form Factor UDIMM (Desktop) Pin Count 288-pin Speed (Data Rate) 6000 MT/s Speed Rating PC5-48000 Tested CAS Latency 38-44-44-96 Voltage (Tested) 1.35V Performance Profile AMD EXPO & Intel XMP Heat Spreader Aluminum heatspreader Cooling Type Passive (Heatsink) Lighting Ten Zone RGB Software Support Corsair iCUE Get it at the link below: CORSAIR Vengeance RGB DDR5 32GB (2 x 16GB) 6000 CL38 – Gray (CMH32GX5M1E6000Z38): $339.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US, Fulfilled by Amazon US) This Woot deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • The very fact that a TPM (v2.0 specifically which is part of the issue I suspect) is now a baseline for any supported Windows installation will naturally mean other vendors will start to leverage it as they know it'll be there. It's called progress, and it's always been the way. A TPM isn't a windows thing, it's just a module designed to securely store keys. Secure boot isn't a Windows thing (although MS are the TCA as I recall hence the upheaval this year as the 2011 certs expire), it's just a way to verify a bootloader is signed. Windows simply leverages them.
    • It's a local account with the ability to reset a password at a very base level. I really don't get the issue that gets whipped up around it But you do you
