Nobody has ever attempted to tell me whether it's a fruitless exercise. The discussion brought to mind something I try and do with LinX. Better than that, OCCT seems to do a good job at trapping the errors and recognizing them in real-time, so a revisit to the BIOS screens is merely preceded by the "Shutting down" Windows screen. So just getting such guidelines for wading into the trial-and-error of it relieves the BSOD panic attacks. Eventually, someone publishes a graph for a particular processor plotting VCORE against speed settings, some showing a curve for the top-end binned processors and another curve for the "potatoes". That might be true if one goes into the enterprise half-blind to full information about the CPU, but "those people" are good guinea-pigs. I think there is still an extant opinion that enthusiasts will invariably have BSOD experiences with their over-clocking adventures. The developer - I think he's French - has done a nice job with that testing suite. I had discovered that the OCCT:CPU tests can uncover errors in an hour that wouldn't show through ten iterations of IBT or LinX. Running Prime95 for 24 hours is a huge inconvenience, even if one is replacing a machine still in service and doing it at a leisurely pace. But as i also volunteered from my own experience, it's still an addiction of sorts. Ĭlick to expand.Thanks for sharing your experience with it.Īs some of our veteran colleagues here suggest, over-clocking is becoming less and less "necessary" given the performance just from recent-generation Intel CPUs. This time, I noticed the test durations are limited to 1 hour unless you "subscribe" to it for a year, so I did that. I don't remember ever purchasing OCCT, but I was using it as much as LinX, IBT or PRime95. OCCT has built-in a LinPack test and memory tests, with settings for "data set", "Mode" (normal or extreme) and Load type (variable or steady) - as well as the instruction-set choices. Somehow the the earlier chip, I'd missed the opportunity to use the "Negative AVX Offset" feature, so this go-around taught me some "new stuff". I'd also observed over recent years the value of the OCCT:CPU tests, which can be chosen for "SSE", "AVX" and "AVX2". I've seen custom Prime-95 setups that can detect errors within an hour that could otherwise be missed. I'm always looking for reliable short-cuts to stress-testing, and this month was a special case. ![]() But upgrading from the Skylake to a Kaby was still fun. Looking at the wallet-damage, I could've been up and running for the mere price of Fed-Ex RMA and a two/three-week wait - about $88-worth. I probably wouldn't be poking around these tech forums so much over the past month, but for my vape-pen USB disaster.

Similarly in Macworld’s Call of Duty 4 test, the high-end unit more than doubled the low-end unit’s frame rate, but this time matched the midlevel unit’s frame rate–even though the high-end 15-incher has twice as much video RAM as the the midlevel version. In Macworld’s Quake 4 test, however, the high-end version’s frame rate was more than twice that of the low-end version, and more than 10 percent better than the midlevel 2.66GHz version’s. Overall, the three versions of the 15-inch MacBook Pro produced fairly similar overall performance, as the 2.83GHz unit outpaced the 2.53GHz unit by just 9.7 percent.

The Collective Impact Scholarship Fund builds on Penn State Lehigh Valley’s long history of collaborating on transfer credit policies for specific academic degree programs, Richardson said, while also starting a new trend for institutions in the region to jointly prioritize student access and successful progress to degree completion. On average, a scholarship in the $2,000 to $5,000 range can make the difference for a first-time, full-time student entering college, Richardson said. Other such degree programs include arts administration, which affords local students internship opportunities in the region’s premiere arts organizations, Hove said, and project and supply chain management, which is the fastest-growing industry in the Lehigh Valley.įifty-seven percent of Penn State Lehigh Valley students and 42 percent of LCCC students receive financial aid. Penn State offers several degree programs that address the needs of the Lehigh Valley job market, including biobehavioral health, and health policy and administration, which caters to the Lehigh Valley’s highly-ranked health care providers and the growing patient population.

The two schools will host a special fundraiser event to benefit the scholarship fund at the Philadelphia Flyers exhibition hockey game at the PPL Center in Allentown on Sept. “As education leaders, we made a strategic decision to work across institutions to address the aspects of the affordability and academic progress problem.” “We have so many academically talented students at both of our institutions who are struggling to start and complete their degree due to financial challenges,” Richardson said. Richardson said these students are capable of earning a degree, contributing significantly to the workforce, and impacting the growth of the Lehigh Valley economy, but the cost of higher education is prohibitive. Richardson, chancellor of Penn State Lehigh Valley. Nearly 25 percent of the students at Penn State Lehigh Valley live below 150 percent of the federal poverty level, and 18 percent of its students work more than 30 hours per week, according to Tina Q. “We view ourselves as picking up the high school pipeline, training Lehigh Valley graduates, and getting them ready to enter the Lehigh Valley workforce,” Hove said. All of the school’s degree programs incorporate an internship, and 96 students in 2016-17 completed an internship, most with businesses and nonprofits in the region.

We will discuss each of the key factors below to give you some groundwork to build from when considering what to use on your build. Sizes can range from quite small varieties around 10mm in diameter to very large 50mm disks. Piezoelectric elements (piezos) come in various shapes and sizes: encased vs. In this sense, a guitar with a piezo pickup is really still an acoustic instrument – the acoustic vibrations are just being amplified, in a similar manner to playing into a microphone. A piezo, on the other hand, has nothing to do with magnets: it picks up vibrations only. These fluctuations are increased by an amplifier and reproduced as the familiar electric guitar sound. Magnetic pickups pick up sound when their magnetic fields are caused to fluctuate by the vibration of steel strings near them. It is worth pointing out here the difference between a magnetic pickup (like those in electric guitars) and piezos. There are other types of piezos beyond the metal/ceramic disk we have described, but since that is the most common kind available (and the kind we carry in our shop), it is what we will be discussing here. The end result is that we hear our instrument in an amplified form. These fluctuations in the current through the piezo are picked up by an amplifier, increased and reproduced on a larger speaker. When the piezo is affected by vibration (such as the vibrations of a guitar sound board when strummed), those vibrations cause the metal and ceramic to interact in such a way that the current is modified. Basically, the amplifier sends a small current through the piezo element (though not enough current to cause the piezo to MAKE sound). Many devices, from smoke alarms to alarm clocks to children’s toys, use piezos as a sort of miniature speaker to produce sound.įortunately for CBG builders, the piezo can also be used in a different way: to pick up sound vibrations, which can then be amplified by other circuits such as those in a guitar amplifier. Using piezos to create sound, rather than detect sound, is the most common usage of them in manufacturing. When excited with an appropriate electric current, the interaction between the metal and the ceramic can cause sound to be produced. Wire leads are soldered to these disks (one to the metal part, one to the ceramic part). We will also briefly discuss the topic of wiring in a otentiometer.īe sure to check out our web store for a nice selection of piezos, jacks and other components at great prices!Ī standard piezo consists of a thin metal disk (usually brass, sometimes stainless steel), with a very thin wafer of ceramic glued to it. We will cover the basics of what piezo to use, where you can put it, how to mount it, and how to wire it to a jack. This two-part article is meant to be a basic “here’s what you need to get started” approach to helping people install a piezo pickup into their Cigar Box Guitar build. Add in concepts such as insulation methods, multiple piezos, volume potentiometers and wiring schematics, and the waters tend to get pretty muddy pretty fast. Some folks say that they should be built into the bridge, others attach them to the exterior of the bridge some mount them inside the box lid, others attach them to the outside of the lid. ![]() Everyone seems to have a different idea of how to use them. When using the magnetic output jack in isolation, the piezo battery is bypassed completely, acting as a failsafe (in this scenario, the magnetic pickups still work even if the piezo battery has run out of juice).A lot of new Cigar Box Guitar (CBG) builders (and more than a few veterans) tend to get a bit uneasy when the topic of piezo pickups comes up. Alternatively, players can plug into the jacks separately, so the guitar can run magnetic pickups into an amp and run the piezo through an acoustic amp or DI into the soundboard. ![]() ![]() Players can plug into the “Mix/Piezo” jack and use the individual volume controls to blend the 58/15 “S” pickups with the piezo’s acoustic tones. The instrument is designed with two discrete volume controls (magnetics and piezo) and output jacks (mix/piezo and magnetics). The 58/15 “S” pickups deliver clarity and balance that sound big and musical in a hollowbody platform.īoasting an LR Baggs/PRS Piezo system, the SE Hollowbody II Piezo provides musicians with the versatility of wielding both acoustic and electric tones in one instrument. Constructed with a maple back and top with mahogany sides, the SE Hollowbody II Piezo offers a light shimmer and snap in an attractive package. The SE Hollowbody II Piezo combines the balanced, clear, resonant tone of a hollowbody instrument with the power and stability of a solid-body electric guitar. |
