Photoshop just get a decent laptop ard 3k with graphic card then add your ram to 6-8gb is enough
Lol. Quadro... Quadro only fully use in 3d rendering. Photoshop doesn't use it and only consumes tons of ram.

Autocad dont leverage on quadro cards, oni softwares such as AD Maya and 3ds Max., and only for realtime Directx rendering, unless the renderer utilizes GPU rendering....

Definitely not photoshop lolsss.

Just get a regular card with 512Mb to 1gb memory will do. But definitely get plenty of RAM especially if you deal with huge images in photoshop.

What's the purpose of having higher ram on graphic card eh?

how to make my steering can turn more??

the constraint were the drive shaft for FF cars.. where as with FR cars, the turning radius will be much more smaller..

first model kancil also can turn 2 rounds, but u see the turning radius like lorry.. a benz can turn 1 1/2, but the turning radius are even better than a bike..

to cache texture and geometry date for calculations, else it will have to pull the data from the RAM on your mobo, which will be slower.

Like I said, photoshop no need high end video card, even a simple built in Intel graphic card will do. But you need a fast CPU and a lot of RAM, depending on the image sizes that you work with.

ooo.. now only i know... so, an i5 with a 4gb ram? or should i go better?

Cukup lor.

To put things in perspective for you, I have used my i3 laptop with 4GB RAM to do billboard images up to 10,000 pixels across stored as a Photoshop .psd file, that could end up about 1-2 GB in filesize.

It is a bit slow (loading and saving the file takes 3-5 minutes, complex filters take quite long also), but still serviceable. Of course, the more RAM the better.

how about this one?

I used this on my 15k km, bought it for RM85.. its a mineral based oil.. nothing to brag much, after 1.5k km, engine sound become harsh.. 2k km engine respond become heavier.. 2.5k km FC increased drastically on long distance journey.. for a journey that i could clock around 6.0L - 6.2L/100km, using M2, i got 7.4-7.6.. At 3k km, my M2 oil become residents of my waste oil tank at home.. then i switch back to magnatec, everything went back to normal.. maybe u can try the semi 40 weighted with silver colour can, maybe its better then the red can wan..

My review of LCP and Stiff ring after driving for a while and just service 15K changing engine oil (syn 800, 3.7liter) and air filter (yes, its dirty and I forgot to change on 10K). These are meant for cautious ppl who rarely mod and would like to know what happen when one like me suddenly do it.

First on LCP
I’ve mentioned before on increased of engine noise and jerking while gear change. After servicing, the noise decreased liao. Also these few days, although I can feel gear changing (before LCP, rarely feel), no more jerkiness. Meaning the 2 major cons of LCP changes (for me) practically minimized to the point of non relevance.

I think 3 points might contribute to these improvements.
Point 1, Changing air filter drastically reduced the noise, it’s still a bit noisy compare to stock but maybe I’m getting used to it, does not really worry me anymore (I’m sensitive to engine noise).
Point 2, possible ECU adaption. Maybe ECU has adapted to the current torque improvement thus smoothen acceleration and reduce jerkiness.
Point 3, this is definitely the main improvement that effect jerkiness. Right foot. I’ve adapted to the different acceleration and gear change point, so no more over-accelerate, lessen noise and practically no gear change jerkiness.

With current cons minimized and great improvement benefit for low end torque, I can honestly recommend LCP for PE. Minimal con, maximum benefit. Although any long term damage or what, don’t know lor….but the benefits…ahh…I’ll risk it, can’t really imagine going back to non-LCP no power acceleration for PE auto-tranny. Except for suicide cut queue cars, hardly any car can jump my queue now…hahaha…

Ok…next Stiff ring.
I’ve mentioned my ride veering left (did rotation and alignment at Stiff ring panel shop)…..redo alignment once liao (my local tyre shop)…still veer slightly. Finally yesterday, switch the front tyres between the left and right front tyres. Problem solved. Yes, it’s the tyres, so I have to clarify, it might not be panel shop alignment at fault…tho my local shop do mention alignment and cambers runs a bit to left earlier.

I still standed on no feeling of improvement on handling, tho like Zen mentioned, steering do feel a bit heavier than before. Stable kuah…

The only improvement I feel is going thru bump and rough road, can still feel them, but like Zen mentioned, can feel absorber absorbing all the humps or bump. In another word, way more silent and less creaking feel when going thru those. Not sure if its worth it for some ppl (RM190 promotion price excluding alignment). For me, no regret tho, can feel its helps in those rough road situation (really can feel more silent and smoother bump ride especially when going over the rough road junction at pudu jail to times square)….worth it for me since comfort is my main priority.

Nice write up bro.. Thanks..

Bought cheapo silicone wiper from Giant. Juddering like mad! Only smooth when totally wet/heavy rain. Planning to exhange at Giant tomorrow to a normal rubber wiper. Anybody experienced this? Or will the wipers get better with time? Never experienced this with normal rubber one.

I've been trying quite a lot of brands with that frameless wiper and each & every model also jump up the air raise hand like they didn't care..

I've been using one ayam brand frameless for the last one year. Quite good, but one year has passed and can see streaks already. Hopefully Giant won't have much fuss when I wanna exchange tomorrow. Maybe the silicone material is causing the juddering.

Personally, I think the one with the frames work even better..
