TESTING THE SECURITY OF MODERN WINDOWS 7 / ANDROID 8 BROWSERS

TESTING THE SECURITY OF MODERN WINDOWS 7 / ANDROID 8 BROWSERS

UPDATED ON: 2024-11-14 I just realized that there is no security tests in browser area, only performance related benchmarks. Today we shall fix that small gap with the help of [BrowserAudit] service. ► BROWSER SCORES BROWSER OK+ WARN! CRIT!

MODERN BROWSERS FOR WINDOWS 7 MEASURED PERFORMANCE

MODERN BROWSERS FOR WINDOWS 7 MEASURED PERFORMANCE

It has been a while since i posted web performance comparisons. So here it is in all it’s useless glory. Performance was measured by [JetStream] benchmark. Two machines were tested: low-end office computer and powerful workstation. ► Intel i3-3220/16Gb/IntelHD + Firefox 115.17 ESR RedFox 132 Chrome 109 Supermium 126 Score 54.896 65.033 80.217 90.038 Stdlib 0.566 0.638 0.920 0.777 MainRun 0.190 0.224 0.309 0.339 First 53.755 65.282 53.610 72.162 Worst 54.

1950X / 5950X / 7950X ▀ SUPER MEGA RETROSPECTIVE WINDOWS 7 BENCHMARK

¶ INTRO WORDS Numbers, numbers, numbers … i say NUMBERS!!!! It’s been a while since i ran into the craze of pointless benchmarks. And now I’m back with the absolute procrastination stuff. Are you happy with this? Take a note that 3DMark 03, 3DMark 05, 3DMark 06, 3DMark Vantage [2007], 3DMark 2011 and 3DMark 2021 are not marked by ▒ sign, showing the fact that these programs lost the soul of demoscene and just providing comparison numbers, nothing else.
OPPO FIND X6 PRO IS THE LAST CAMERAPHONE TO BE REVIEWED ON THESE PAGES

OPPO FIND X6 PRO IS THE LAST CAMERAPHONE TO BE REVIEWED ON THESE PAGES

If i remember correctly i already promised [not to touch any cameraphones again] . But what convinced me to take another crack at it was the numerous reviews claiming “it’s the best cameraphone in the world” running Android 13. As you may know, Android 14 brought many groundbreaking changes [at least from my point of view]. One of them is the restriction on installing applications targeted at Android 6.0. Loads of cr#p services and telemetry dialers are included also.
FIREFOX VS SUPERMIUM ▀ JAVASCRIPT PERFORMANCE COMPARISON 2024

FIREFOX VS SUPERMIUM ▀ JAVASCRIPT PERFORMANCE COMPARISON 2024

As you may know modern WEB is more and more dependent on JavaScript technology, that is why JS performance is essential for modern browsers. I have decided to throw the most important and interesting browsers into the pit, to find out in fare fight, who is stronger in above mentioned domain. Things go fast these days, especially in the technology field. Not so long ago, the [Octane] speed test, considered as a standard in this field, counts as outdated.
BENCHMARK OF EXTREME COMPRESSION TOOLS [2023]

BENCHMARK OF EXTREME COMPRESSION TOOLS [2023]

It’s been a while since i’ve posted any benchmarks, so filling the gap to satisfy your nerd cravings. Today we’ll cover the most extreme compression utilities and find out which one is the best. If [Winrar] and [7-Zip] don’t need any introduction, here’s a list of things that are obviously little known to most people: [WinRK] ► lost compression gem [Cmix] ► 32Gb RAM is recommended [Bsc] ► CUDA enabled compressor [Paq8px] ► highly-advanced command line achiever [Zpaq] ► another highly-advanced command line achiever File D3DX9_40.

Operating system: Windows 7 x64 SP2+ ESU CPUs: Ryzen 9 5950X 16c/32t [Zen 3] and Intel Xeon E5-2696v4 22c/44t [Broadwell] Audio card: ESI Maya 4 EX PCIe Software: Renoise 3.4.2 Settings: ASIO/48Khz/~5ms CPU overload protection: 98% Benchmark file was created by [Cactoos] of Renoise community.
DELL PRECISION 7510 VS 7520 ▀ PERFORMANCE COMPARISON

DELL PRECISION 7510 VS 7520 ▀ PERFORMANCE COMPARISON

It’s been a while since i’ve posted useless table comparisions. So here is one! Recently i bought second-hand Dell Precision 7520 in very good condition. Purchased it as an emergency backup for future use. Neat laptops will be hard to find in my country due to tech sanctions. 7510 model is based around Sky Lake architecture [E3-1545Mv5] . 7520 model is based around Kaby Lake architecture [E3-1535Mv6] . Differences between E3-1545Mv5 and E3-1535Mv6 are marginal, but they exist.

XEON E5-2680V4 14C/28T VS E5-2696V4 22C/44T ▀ WINDOWS 7 PERFORMANCE COMPARISON

UPDATED ON: 2022-08-13 ▒ PREFACE WORDS As you remember, my [previous daily driver was Ryzen 9590x 16c/32t] . After some fun with it I’ve decided to drop it in favor to retro stuff. Intel Xeon CPU based around Broadwell tech: [E5-2696v4 22c/44t] became the chip of the choice. It is OEM version of top of the line [Xeon E5-2699v4] . It is a bit slower, around marginal 3-4%, but costs significantly less than 2699v4.
PALIT GEFORCE 1650 TI ▀ FASTEST PASSIVELY COOLED GPU

PALIT GEFORCE 1650 TI ▀ FASTEST PASSIVELY COOLED GPU

[GeForce 1650Ti] is the fastest passively cooled GPU avaialable on market. It was made by Palit company and carries KalmX branding. Recently, i finished my Blender investigations and that is why i don’t need [Radeon 6900xt] power anymore. So, i decided to switch to something without fan with decent performance. KalmX design solely relies on massive radiator. Despite the fact that device doesn’t have any fans it provides pretty good performance.

AMD FX 8370 8-CORE CPU UNDER THE WING OF WINDOWS 2000

▒ SOME PREFACE WORDS …. Is it really possible? Read on to find out. Windows 200 is known for very fast performance, even compared to Windows XP and famous for absence of preinstalled bloatware. However, lack of drivers and software cripple system a bit. I was curious about ability to use this old operating system in 2022, maybe not as daily driver, but as a backup machine for secondary tasks.

It’s been a while since I’ve published something related to benchmarking. So here we go then: a quick Aida64 post in which you can observe results of little RAM overclock and how it is influence overall computer performance. I’ve come to conclusion that table representation will be more transparent rather than screenshots of the benchmark software. ► HARDWARE CONFIGURATIONS BENCHMARK TOOL: Aida64 v6.33.5700 [2021] MOTHERBOARD: Gigabyte X570 Aorus Ultra [Bios: F34] LOW-END PROFILE: Ryzen 3 3100 4-Core HI-END PROFILE: Ryzen 9 9590X 16-Core
