1 AnswerPhysics7 years agoWhat is the fastest processor i can get for this motherboard (intel)?
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&...
The motherboard is pretty old. It's a PTGD-LA (Goldfish3) and i was just wondering what i could get for it. It will only be used for simple office tasks and nothing too strenuous but i was looking for something with atleast 2 cores (preferably 4).
Again, not looking for the fastest thing in the world, i just want something better than the one it came with.

Text:
At this point, the Trojans, having fled like deer,
spread out through the city, resting by its well-made walls,
drying their sweat and taking drink to slake their thirst.
Meanwhile, Achaeans were moving to the walls,
their shields held up against their shoulders. But Hector
was forced by deadly fate to stay right where he stood
in front of Ilion, outside the Scaean Gate.
Then Phoebus Apollo spoke out to Achilles:
"Son of Peleus, why are you, a mere human,
running so hard in an attempt to catch me, 10
an immortal god? You're still ignorant,
it seems, of the fact that I'm a god.
You keep coming at me with such anger. [10]
But what about your battle with those Trojans
you put to flight? They're crowding in the city,
while you chase off in a diversion here.
But you will never kill me. I'm not someone
whose fate it is to die."
Swift-footed Achilles,
in a towering fury, then answered Apollo:
"You've tricked me,
god who shoots from far away, deadliest 20
of all the gods. You've turned me from the wall.
Otherwise, before reaching Ilion,
many men would have sunk their teeth in earth.
You've robbed me of great glory, saving them
with ease, since you don't have to be afraid
of future retribution. I'd make you pay,
if only I were powerful enough." [20]
With these words, Achilles set off towards the city,
his heart full, charging on like a prize-winning horse
pulling a chariot at full speed across the plain 30
with little effort—that's how fast Achilles ran,
sprinting with his legs and feet.
End:
I don't want for you to describe i just want to know which literary terms are present. Thtawould just help me a lot :)

1 AnswerSoftware8 years agoGraphics cards question...?
If i currently have $150 to spend should i get the GTX650 TI, save 50 more for an ATI 7850 (2gb of course), or save and extra $30 for a $230 GTX 660. I really want to get playing some of the more recent games but would it be better to wait or will the first card be ok for now.
1 AnswerAdd-ons8 years agoATI 7850 2gb vs. GTX 660 2gb?
If i just happened to find both at the same price which should i get.
1 AnswerOther - Computers8 years agoWill my case be big enough for this GPU?
I have made my mind to get an ATI 7850, but i have seen that the card is 13 in. by 2 in. by 10 in.
I measured my computer case and it is way to small for this. I saw videos of the actual card and it does not seem at all close to that size, it seems way smaller. Was it a mistake where they meant centimeters?
Will i need a huge case for this graphics card.

2 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks8 years agoHow did the Joker actually get his scars?
I watched The Dark Knight (and the whole trilogy) but i never read any Batman comics. I was about 6 when i saw Batman '89 so i dont really remember anything about the Joker from that movie (supposing it gave a back story) but im not willing to watch it just to figure this out.
In the movie he gave 3 reasons why he has the scars but i don't know which one is true or if he makes all of them up. So can someone tell me why he has those scars or is it something that the creator of Batman did not want people to know just to make him more mysterious?
4 AnswersMovies8 years agoGood adult movies to watch?
I wanted to know if there were any god adult/porn movies out there that i could watch. I want it to have a story line where the boyfriends cheats on a girl somehow and then someone ends up dying. I kinda want it to be like Babysitters (2008). It would be best if you have seen it and could recommend it. I just don't want to watch a two hour movie that was boring from the start.

2 AnswersDesktops9 years agoWhich way would be better to go (Graphics Card)?
I want to know what would be better(both GeForce)... A GTX 560, or a GTX 550 TI Superclocked.
I am planning on buying either one and wanted the 550 because it was cheaper and performed a little faster. But now i am rethinking this and don't know if superclocked will ruin the card. And if getting the 560 superclocked/overclocked would be better than it would be great if you could tell me.
Thanks in advance :)
