When Is The Right Time To Upgrade Your VGA Card?

When Is The Right Time To Upgrade Your VGA Card?

Video Graphic Array or VGA is one of the component that you will found on your PC. The first VGA card was made in 1981 by IBM, by the name of IBM PC Video Card. It was still called MDA (Monochrome Display Adapter) at that time. And can only operate for text mode with 80 columns of 25 lines (80 × 25), it have 4KB of video memory and supports 1 color only. After that come so many graphic cards like ATI, Cirrus Logic, and S3. Now, graphic cards become more sophisticated and become a part that can not be separated from PC.

Just like I said before VGA Card is the most important thing in laptop and especially PC computer, sometimes a PC is judged from it's VGA Card, but what about the processor? The brain of a computer? It should the most important thing right? Wrong, if you have a great processor let's say Intel Core i7 but your computer's graphic is Intel HD Graphic. Then it's no use, it's like a lion with a head of a house cat. So it's important to upgrade your VGA Card to maximize your computer's performance, but the question is when?

Upgrade your VGA Card is like writing an article, you should know the right time to publish your article in order to get more viewers or readers. If you bought a VGA Card and replace your old VGA in the wrong time, then you just waste your money. Because why did you need a great VGA if you only use your PC for browsing and writing? Well if you didn't want to lose your money, just read this article.

When Is The Right Time To Upgrade Your VGA Card?

1. When You Become An Animator

An activity like rendering an animation will need a great graphic resources. Using a medium or low-medium VGA Card will not do the job, you just gonna torture your computer especially your processor. Because animation especially the 3D one need a lot of time, space, and power to rendered it.

Did you know Lord of The Rings? LOTR movie have a lot of sequel and all animation in that movie takes 3-4 years to rendered! So imagine what time it takes to rendered a 15 minute animation. So you will need a powerful VGA Card to rendered an animation.


2. When You Have a Lot of Money

Most of today's VGA Cards like Nvidia, AMD, etc are expensive. No offense but it's not recommended for a poor guy. So try to use a low-end or medium PC and be happy with it. Anyway, with the increasingly sophisticated technology owned by today's VGA Card, the price is also becoming increasingly "sophisticated."

Most VGA Card prices are around $200-$400, and that was just the VGA Card. Not to mention the processor, cooling fan or maybe liquid cooler, motherboard, CPU casing, and many other. So be careful.

3. When Your Computer Have A Great Specifications


A great VGA Card must be balanced with other equally good components. If you have a good VGA Card like Geforce GTX 580 for example but your processor is still entry level like AMD Athlon II X2 2,6ghz. The VGA Card will not be able to release the optimal performance, PC geek called it bottleneck (Search in Google for details).

So VGA Card and processor is a unity that can't be separated. If you want to buy a good VGA Card, you should also bought a good processor for a maximum performance.


4. When You Decided to Become A Gamer

Playing a video game is almost like making an animation. It takes a lot of hard work for the VGA Card to rendered all of that 3D. But the difference is that in video games, you're just playing it and in the animation, you are making it. So clearly that playing video games does not require much power from the VGA Card.

It used to be like that, But now it's different. Most of today's video games have a really great graphic, so you will need a rally good and really expensive VGA Card.


5. When You Want To Watch A Movie in Detail

If you didn't have any time beside watching movie all day long, then you should bought a new VGA Card. Why? Because, believe it or not the better the graphics card, the better the quality of the movie you watch on your PC. But of course you should bought a good monitor for a great experience.

Buying a VGA Card is very important, but keeping your purse alive is important too. So please if you didn't have any money just try not to play a video games that have a next-gen graphic, or try to watch a movie on your television. And that's all my tips for choosing the right time to buy a VGA Card, I hope this article helps you.

Blogger vs WordPress: Which One is The Best?

Blogger vs WordPress: Which One is The Best?

Last time I already give you a match-up or battle between two mightiest internet browser, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome. And today, I'm gonna give you another battle. Let me give you a hint, it's not Mcgregor vs Mayweather or Groudon vs Kyogre. Instead we're gonna give you a battle between two blogging services website. Yes, it's Blogger and WordPress. 

Just like you know, this two have been used by blogger all around the world to express them self and give people an information about something or the latest news that happened somewhere in the world. But there are so many new bloggers and website owners didn't know which one they should use. Should they choose a simple and basic blogging service like Blogger or an advanced and more complex blogging service like WordPress?

I admit when I decided to become a blogger, I didn't know which one should I use. I search all over the internet for month if I'm not wrong, and did you know what did I found? Most of them said that Blogger and WordPress are the same, they are equally good. It's up to you to decide which one is better (Can you believe that?). That doesn't give me an answer at all, and then with all of that confusion. I decided to try it myself, and the first one that I try was WordPress. Honestly I was confused when I want to build my own website in WordPress and then my friend said that Blogger is more simple than WordPress. And that's how I found this blog, anyway let's just go to the main topic of this article shall we?

Which One is The Best?
Many says that Blogger is simpler and better than WordPress but some says that WordPress is more organized and easy to use than Blogger. Which one do you think is the best? Let's find out.


Blogger.com


Blogger.com

This free blogging service is own by the biggest search engine company in the world, Google. And probably one of the most popular blogging services in the world. Some of new blogger like me, use this platform, Because:

It Was Free

Just like you know, Blogger is free. That means you are free to do whatever you like and you don't have to spend a money to build or make your own blog. But later when your blog have a lot of visitor and become more famous. You will have to spend some money if you want to make your blog more advanced.

You can Post So Many Article

In Blogger you can post as many as you like. So no need to worry about can't post an article because you have exceeded the amount of article you can post. That means you can write anything you want and as many as you want. But of course if your article have something that Google didn't like, Your blog or website can be closed forever.

User Friendly

Not like Wordpress, Blogger have a more friendly dashboard and control panel. Probably because Blogger is for a newbie, and there's one thing that I like from Blogger. It's widget, Yes there are lots of widget out there and if you want to add a widget to your blog, you just can easily add it with copy the url and paste.

Google Adsense

This is probably the reason why I start blogging with Blogger. You can easily make money with Google Adsense, because Blogger is integrated with Google Adsense and Amazon Associates. How does it work? Well, every time someone click an advertising in your blog or website. You will get money, so more people click your ads more money you will get. And if your blog or website have a good traffic or visited by so many internet users, you can start to sign up to Google Adsense and let the money flow. But of course it's not easy to join Google Adsense.

Integrated With Google

If you already have a gmail or Google Talk instant messenger account, that mean you have a Google Account. And you can start make your blog and begin to write an article in Blogger. So no need to worry about second sign up, because the e-mail and password that you use to sign in to Blogger.com is the same with your Gmail account.

It Was Safe

Another Reason why I use Blogger, because it was safer than WordPress. WordPress.org is vulnerable to hacker/cracker's attack, because they can break into cpanel or blog database in WordPress. Blogger in the other hand, is safer because it was own by Google.


WordPress.com/WordPress.org


WordPress.com/WordPress.org

Some of you maybe confused by the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org. And if you say this two is the same, you are wrong. Because WordPress.com is a free blogging services just like Blogger.com and created by the same company Automattic. In the other hand, WordPress.org is not free. you can buy and download an application or domain and put it into your blog or website. Some of the biggest company use WordPress.org to make a website.

WordPress.com

WordPress.com

Free, Free, Free

Just like I said before, WordPress.com is free. But with great power comes great limitation. In WordPress.com, you didn't have a full access to your blog. And if you want to use some feature, you should bought them first

So Many Theme

The good side of using WordPress.com is that you can choose so many theme that you can applied to your blog. Up to a hundred themes are available for you to choose and they're all have a good design, so you didn't have to worry about make your own theme or bought a theme from someone.

Custom Domain

Not like any other blogging services, WordPress.com provides you with a custom domain. Yes, you can change your blog or website domain. But you will have to bought the domain first, you can bought the domain for 18 dollar for a year.

WordPress.org

WordPress.org

Have So many Feature

This one have so many feature that you can use to your blog or website like theme, domain, plugin, any other stuff. If you want to find out more, just check out the website

Plugins

Just like Blogger.com, Wordpress.org have so many plugins but the different is that WordPress.or have tons of plugins. You can applied them to you your blog or website after you bought them. But it was worth it, because the plugins are cool.

No Rules

WordPress.org is different, not like any other blogging services. WordPress.org allow you to use or change everything and and anything you want. It's your blog or website, just do anything you want. so that's why WordPress.or sometimes use by a professional blogger or website owner.

So the in the conclusion, I'm just gonna say that every blogging services have it's own advantages and disadvantages. It's up to you to choose which one is better. But remember this, no matter what blogging services that you use. You should give a reliable and trusted information, you shouldn't use this blogging services to give a hoax or false information. So it's on your own, choose which blogging services that you think perfect for you.

What Is CGI And How Does It Work?

What Is CGI And How Does It Work?

If you like a big budget Hollywood movie, then this one is for you. You've probably heard about CGI so many time and just like you know, Hollywood movie use a lot of CGI and it was awesome. Sometimes, you can't tell the difference between the real one and the CGI. But did you ever stop and think what is CGI exactly? Who invented it? and mostly, how does it work? We will get there.

But first, did you know what CGI stands for? According to Wikipedia, CGI stands for Computer-Generated Imagery. So that means all of the 3D animation that you see on the movie, was made by computer. CGI was used for everything not only a movie, but it was also used in a Video Game, Commercial, Television Show, Animation, etc. In Video Game, CGI technology used at the cut scene and trailer. But in movie, CGI is mostly used for create a fantasy character like elf, dwarf,etc. And also for create a monster like in Pacific Rim or giant robot like in Transformers. But some movie, use CGI to make a superhero suit like Iron Man.

Well if we are talking about CGI, it's never far from the animation world. In fact, today's cartoon also used CGI to smooth the character movement. The first animation was produced in 1901 and created by a man named Walter Disney. He build a famous animation company called Walt Disney, at first Walt Disney is not so popular. But because of the Walter Disney's persistence, Disney become more and more famous. And because of that, many people try to do the same thing. So many animation or cartoon began to popping up like Tom and Jerry, Looney Tunes, The Simpsons, etc. And finally, in June 1976 CGI animation was invented. Since then, CGI become more sophisticated and look like it was real.

How Does It Work?

There are two type of CGI, 2D and 3D. Just like I said before, 2D CGI is used in cartoon while 3D CGI is used in today's movie. They used it to create objects with real shapes, lighting, textures, even the object can move as if were alive. So many applications that you can use to make CGI, like 3DS Max, Blender, Light Wave 3D, Maya, and Autodesk Softimage.

Even though the CGI was invented in 1976, CGI has been used in the movie Westworld that came out in 1973. But it was only 2D, so the CGI isn't very good and not as sophisticated as now. And it looks like an ordinary animation. Take a look at this picture, if you want to know how CGI works.

Twilight

Twilight
There's no way Kristen Stewart is petting a real giant wolf. They make a wolf on the computer, then replace the person with the wolf they had made earlier. If  that was a real wolf, She will be dead by now. Well, at least that guy is having the best time of his life.


Doctor Strange

Doctor Strange
As you can see, the portal that Doctor Strange made was actually a giant circle made from neon lights (or maybe that was a hulahoop). Basically they just replace the giant neon circle with a portal and then add some effect to make it real.


Guardians Of The Galaxy

Guardians Of The Galaxy
This scene is the same with the scene in Twilight movie earlier. They replaced that poor guy with a talking racoon. That guy will never sleep well at night.


Man Of Steel

Man Of Steel
In this movie, the superman is not really flying. As you can see here, that guy is pretending like what every normal actor do. They just add a background and wind effect to his cape. If he was really flying, CIA office will be busy right now.


Iron Man

Iron Man
Like every superheroes movie, the suit in that Tony Stark had is just a CGI. In real life that guy is just wearing a special shirt and the only one that real was the helmet.

And that is how CGI works, with the technology that keep growing. I'm pretty sure that real actors will not be needed in the future. Every actors that we see in the movie are animation, and the only thing that was real is the film crew.

How To Eliminate Malware From Your Computer

Malware

Last time I already give you an article about how to eliminate spyware. And this time, I'm going too give the same article. But, in this article, we're gonna talking about how to remove malicious software or malware from your computer. 

Sometimes virus can be dangerous for your computer. You can loss some of your files or maybe worse, you can't open your application or data. But malware in the other hand, is far more scary. Your computer can be infected by malware, if you try download or install an application that has been cracked. Sometime they add a malicious application inside an application that you want to download. So that's why you better buy the application that you want to download from the developer itself. But still, you have to be careful when you are about download something on the internet.

Anyway without further ado, let's just go with how to eliminate a malicious software from your computer. But before that, I'm just gonna remind you that I only give you how to eliminate malware for windows only.

Use Offline Scanner
Did you know that windows 10 have a tool that allow you to eliminate malware? Yes, and it's called Windows Defender Offline. It's called offline because Windows Defender doing scanning outside of Windows. So the process of scanning and cleaning the malware is done before you go into Windows.

Well, It's easy to run it. Just go to Settings> Update & Security> Windows Defender> scroll down and select Scan Offline. After that Windows 10 will automatically restart and offline scanning process will start. The process will last 15 - 20 minutes and automatically enter Windows once the entire process is complete.

Update Your Anti Virus
This is the basic thing you should do, always update you anti virus definition. Otherwise, your computer will be vulnerable to virus or malware attack. Because just like the technology that always evolving, computer virus and malware will always evolved and become more dangerous.

In that case, you should evolve your anti virus by updating it. To do this, you will need an anti virus. And then open your anti virus, find the update button and click it. That way, you will be protected against all of the virus and malware that will attack your computer.

Clean The Temporary Files
Temporary files, including cache and cookies on the browser often become the nesting place of malware. For that, clean the temporary file on the browser, as well as windows (including the recycle bin) if you want to remove malware from your computer. To delete temporary files in windows, go to RUN then type % temp%. Delete all the contents of the temporary file.

Then remove the contents of the recycle bin, and then right click on the recycle bin icon on the desktop and select empty recycle bin. To delete temporary files in the Chrome browser, go to history, click menu and then select the option to delete browsing data. Check all options to delete all data.

Delete / Reset System Restore
Windows also has a System restore feature, which is actually very useful if there is a problem with the system. With system restore we can restore the system back like when point restore point in save. But unfortunately system restore is also often used as the safe house for malware.

I personally prefer to turn off all system restore. To reset system restore is quite easy, you just need to turn off system restore then turn off computer. After that restart the system restore, then the previously saved file system has been removed and replaced with the latest one.

Reinstall Your Computer
This is the last way and probably the most powerful way to remove malware from your computer. With a note, other partitions besides file system must also be scanned first, so it will not infect your computer system again. But too often re-install the OS also gives a bad impact, so you should be careful here.

So it's all up to you. If you are not careful enough, you will break your computer and probably lose all of your data and files. And just for your information, Most malware attacks the Windows OS, while other OS including Linux is very rarely attacked because of its open source nature that makes linux has a pretty tough security system. So there is no harm in switching to the program and Open Source Operating System. Or if you didn't like linux, you can use Apple Mac Computer that never attacked by virus.
