    • jzdhgkd on 14/01/2016 - 16:46

      Agreed with bentan. Difference is pretty much only seen in benchmarks and comparative epeen.

      Top tier SSDs do flex their muscles in a few situations: servers, high bitrate video editing, transferring huge files (like tens of GB at a time).

      Otherwise for "average" use you might see a 1s difference in startup, 0.5s difference when opening a word document but absolutely no difference when it comes to browsing, facebooking and the like.

      • Nilfunds on 14/01/2016 - 18:41

        yes. all those 1s and 0.5s add up.

        try copying a 1gb file etc, i guess it comes down to people and accepting, oh this is enough and people who want maximum speed they can get and 20$ price difference is not the best decision to just settle for second best

        i mean, where do you draw the line? do you want i7 3770 or a i7 4790k and how do you justify the difference for use intended. Of course anyone would chose i7 4790k over the other one if the price was the same? right?

        • jzdhgkd on 14/01/2016 - 20:29
          +2

          All those 1s and 0.5s add up, but how many have you wasted by reading and typing all these replies on OzB?

          Like I said - for the average user, epeen is the only real benefit of an 850 over the 535.

          535 (in this case of a sale) nets you another $20 in your pocket which surely is worth more than the x minutes/year you'd save with the 850

          @jzdhgkd:

          goes both ways mate,
          how much time youve wasted here to save 20$ lol

          i can see a big difference between different SSDs i have, so thats my experience and synthetic benchmarks reflect this.
          you might as well got a normal hard disk and save even more $$$

          A 1GB file? On one it will take 2.5s and on the other it will take 5s. To the average user it won't matter. You might notice a difference, and that difference might be important to you, but the average user won't.

        • macrocephalic on 15/01/2016 - 17:27

          @millusions: Plenty of people still do their main computing on systems comparable to core2duo's. If you go to JB or HN and buy a $500 PC or laptop with a 'pentium' processor in it then you're probably getting something comparable to a core2duo.

          Look at the stagnation in the sales of PC's - this is because they've reached a point where most people don't feel the need to upgrade to something better all the time.

      Intel and Samsung make the most reliable SSD's

      I wouldnt worry to much about performance on these drives as they are both blown away by the 850 Pro :)
      reliability and lifespan are the most important aspect of an SSD . Performance comes second… ALL SSD's are so far ahead of mechanical hard drives that you always see a massive improvement.
      In real world use you could never tell the difference between an 850 Evo and Intel 535

      • netsurfer on 14/01/2016 - 16:28
        +3

        I suggest people backup important files on other drives. SSDs are quite different to traditional hard drives. I had a Samsung SSD which died within 2 years (very little use, less than 2.5TB total writes on a 240GB SSD).

        When an SSD dies, it often goes completely dead. You will not able to recover any data from it.

        Best not to just rely on the brand. Each model is different.

    • Gavman on 14/01/2016 - 16:23

  • CyberMurning on 14/01/2016 - 17:18

    question for NUC. i can see most have 2 ports, one hdmi one vga.
    if i plug in 2 exactly the same monitors (relatively new monitor, FHD resolution), will i get the same quality of display on both? (im concern as they both pluged into different ports).

    will the cheapest on the list: D34010WYKH (i3) is better than NUC5PPYH (N3700 Quad core)?

    • Haxxa on 14/01/2016 - 17:26
      +2

      Don't use VGA, not if you can help it. While it is capable of fairly high resolutions and frame rates, it's an analog signal. You're not likely to get a pixel-perfect image with today's LCD monitors (hence why you'd use HDMI). In your use case one signal will be Digital and one Analogue, this is a noticeable difference.

      • CyberMurning on 14/01/2016 - 17:30

        thanks. so is it possible to use 2 monitors with that NUC? maybe one hdmi out from NUC then buy splitters 1 to 2 cable and go into dvi or hdmi on each monitors?

        • Haxxa on 14/01/2016 - 18:23
          +2

          Well only if you want a mirrored image use splitters, otherwise if you want dual displays i.e. different content on each monitor use the D34010WYKH, as it has both DisplayPort and HDMI - simply use a MiniDP to HDMI Adapter and you are set.

        • CyberMurning on 14/01/2016 - 18:36

          @Haxxa: I want to extend my view for example put two different excel sheets on each monitor to compare data. Or one excel one browser. I saw in some office computer they use splitter but able to extend?

        • Haxxa on 14/01/2016 - 18:59
          +1

          @eisniwre: HDMI Splitters can only Mirror (this is not what you want). I have A NUC I use to to extend my display - what you want for this is the D34010WYKH Model with a miniDP to HDMI Adapter (found on ebay for few dollars). This allows you to say have one monitor viewing an Excel Sheet and the other Google Chrome.

        • CyberMurning on 14/01/2016 - 19:01

          @Haxxa: thank you. wont buy nuc with vga

      • macrocephalic on 14/01/2016 - 17:57
        +1

        Agreed. I have a long (3m) VGA cable that I use to plug my work laptop in at home and the picture is terrible. There's quite a bit of ghosting and distortion. It's good enough for a second monitor when working at home, but it's pretty bad. Of course, you get a much better signal if you use an appropriate length, good quality cable - but still not as good as digital.

      • CyberMurning on 14/01/2016 - 22:19

    grabbed a N3050 NUC recently for $194 and 8GB ram for $58 and its running OpenELEC/Kodi perfectly…dont need to spend big $$$ on these NUCs for a media centre.

    p.s. also dont need a HDD , just run off a spare USB or SD card.

    • avra06 on 14/01/2016 - 22:05

      • noise36 on 14/01/2016 - 22:13
        +2

        MSY normal pricing not even on special.

        If you want to keep costs down just install OpenELEC 6.0 (which is Kodi 15.2) from SD card to a USB (or vice versa) that you already have saving buying an SSD…Im controlling it with my android tablet via the official app Kore (works surprisingly well, can even sleep and wake the device). I have also ordered a MCE IR remote from ebay for $10 to see how that goes.

        This setup is super snappy in the menus and plays everything flawlessly from what Ive seen so far.

        If you are never planning to run windows 4GB ram will be fine but I got 8GB just in case I decide to later run windows.

        Windows and windows application would benefit from a more expensive NUC (I3/I5/I7) but you dont need to go that way if you just want a great network/local media player.
