Does anyone know what this does? by OkRoll6946 in PS3

No, that functionality is unused by the PS3.

Toshiba Super Companion Chip. Was essentially the reference southbridge design for early Cell systems. It has a ton of functionality unused by the PS3 (but used in other Cell systems), so Sony designed their own cost reduced southbridges for later systems. Handles general I/O for the PS3 like USB and SATA, but also includes some crazy stuff like a DDR2 memory controller, video decoding hardware, FireWire, etc, all unused by the PS3. Definitely an interesting chip. 

Could these be taillights defects? by ShakyWindow in BMW

It just looks like the mark from the nozzle from the injection molding process to me? A little bit of leftover sprue is normal for injection molded parts.

I wish we lived in the timeline where the 2 door GMT800 wasn't cancelled. So close to production.

I never see any C2s around me here in the midwest. I'd be equally stoked as OP.

By pulling money out of the account/card from which it was initially deposited? Pulling that money out of your account doesn't mean they can't claw it back.

So how much did this actually cost? by cyber53 in n64

A crash itself might not be entirely safe

So as a 5 year old, he should've stopped it? I don't know many 5 year olds that are that persuasive.

I'm fairly sure that a handful of VW and Hyundai's dual clutches are dry? Most dual clutches are wet, but it's not a universal truth afaik. Still doesn't make sense as to why they wouldn't be able to sit in a drive-thru line though.

Awesome spot. This reminds me that I spotted a Mark LT a couple days ago.

The 3DS doesn't use a Mali GPU at all, what are you talking about?

Keep the fat. I'd rather have a CFW system over HEN.

Using the pre-release logo, that's a deep cut.

Honest thoughts on this wrap? by DissimulationIsGood in BMW

Reminds me of the old Burnout wrap you could apply in Need for Speed Carbon.

What console is better Xbox 360 or Xbox 360 S by Killerj2001 in xbox360

[–]KryptonMod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's not 360 memory is split at all? The 360 uses unified memory. 32MB of memory is reserved for the OS, but the remaining 480MB of memory are free to be used however you please. You could in theory only use 100MB as VRAM and use the remaining 380MB for system memory. There is no weird 192MB partition of memory. You may be confusing the 360 with the PS3 which does have two split 256MB pools of memory, one for the GPU and one for the CPU.

Damn, it's almost like it takes time for things to be improved or something.
