most accurate gps watch?




rick


i need a gps watch that can measure distance and instantaneous pace very accurately. i have been looking at the Nike+ and the garmin 610, and even just the iPhone Nike app, but they all have mixed reviews. p.s. The running wil be don completely on the road, with not really any trees and no bridges.


Answer
The reason you are going to get mixed reviews is because that is as far as GPS technology has advanced, you won't get instantaneous pace or distance. To get instantaneous pace or distance the watch would have to be connected directly to the satellite. As things stand now and intermittent signal is sent out which can be impacted by weather, other signals or structures and objects between the watch and the satellite. The only difference between watches if there is one (I haven't researched it) is how often the signal is sent out. I can't imagine one watch having any great advantage over another because the same technology is available to all manufacturers.

My computer is running the way it shouldn't be?

Hello all.
So for awhile now my computers been acting quite differently. I have a decent computer overall. My problem is, I cannot run games well at all, and for a lot of games I have better specs for the recommended specs. I usually run the games I play on the lowest quality because i'll get massive lag, examples, World of Warcraft, Skyrim, League of Legends, even minecraft, I have to run all these on low.
I have a AMD anthlon II X4 650 Proccesor (4 Cpus), 3.2ghz, 8 gigs of a ram, and a Nvidia GeFore GT 610. And I can only run games on low.
Also keep in mind that I am up to date on Direct x, flash, java, and all other stuff. I keep my computer up to date with that stuff. I'm also up to date on drivers.
Now what also is confusing the hell out of me, is my inability to watch live streams. On any site, such as Twitch, Own3d and more, the live streams will not load. It really should be working. Chat roulette and Omegle also will not load other peoples camera.
I've virus scanned and got nothing. If anyone has suggestions please tell me, i'm honestly willing to do anything, if you want more info let me know.
Chase: I got it last year, so not that old. My old computer with 2.5g of ram and a ATI Raedeon HD 4300/4500 Series graphic card runs the same as the one I run now, and can run livestreams and all the other stuff.



Answer
Try running a memtest86 see if your memory is working. Also run furmark to see if your video card may be failing. Also if you have any overclocking software make sure that you are not inadvertently underclocking your video card. Lastly make sure that if your video card has 4-pin plug make sure its plugged in to your power supply.
