I believe there is. However I always think of RAM as those cards we use to expand our system memory.
Probably unbelievable to many of you is this question could be asked on the CPA exam. Just ran across it in one of my manuals. BTW I got it right through elimination. In another question they referred to it as primary memory.

That was pretty confusing but if you refer to the two levels of on-die cache memory found in modern cpu's... then yes.

Understanding the definition of Random Access Memory versus Read Only Memory would have had the answer to you before you posed the question.... :D :neener: :bolt:

Someone missed the joke.

All goes all along with Gyrene's "joke" (except maybe I'll/I'm/cables), heck he even referenced the "DVI vrs VGA" thread. :P

Slight hijack here, but since you guys mentioned hdmi cables I have a question.
Ive got an hd tv hooked up to an hd dvr, connected via a really short plain jane hdmi cable. Would I get any noticeable picture quality increase if I use a high end cable, such as monster?
I have limited knowledge here, but from what I understand I would only see a difference if it was a longer cable. Any truth to this?
-
Depending on the distance there would only be a nominal difference in fidelity thus creating a nominal difference in quality...if you're running 1080p on a 47in+ screen you would notice it more than someone running 780p on a 32in screen.

No.

Thanks for the reply. The tv in question is running 1080p, and its a 70 inch. The cable is really short, just long enough to reach each other without stretching.
Think I will see if I have a buddy with a top end cable to see if there is really any noticable difference, before I buy one.

So is HDMI better then VGI or VGA?
Sorry is this is considered a hijack/
-
Depends on what type of application you're talking about curry.
For hidef video it's better than RCA, coax or composite...for computer applications I guess it's a wash.

Yes, but it is no better than DVI from what I understand, IF you use the right type of DVI cable.
-

HDMI has no better picture quality than DVI. The only difference is HDMI has audio, which is rarely used in Home Theater.

Audio is rarely used in Home Theater? :headscratch: So I have speakers hooked up for no reason? :headscratch: I think we quit watching silent movies back in the late 1930s.

HDMI and DVI transfer the exact same information... with the exception of audio, which DVI won't handle. Oh yeah.. and the connector is different.
I spent $40 at monoprice.com a few months ago and got two 6 foot HDMI to HDMI cables, two 6 foot DVI to HDMI cables, a charging base for my WII controllers, a component cable for my WII, and three LCD screen cleaning kits.
My HD TV only has one HDMI input.. but it has two DVI inputs, two component inputs, one VGA input, and one composite input (all with their own separate audio inputs). I use one of the DVI adapter cables for my blueray player to use one of the TV's DVI inputs. It works great!
I also recently obtained a sweet computer monitor (24" HP Hdmi in one of those $8 random grab bag deals).. but my video card doesn't have an HDMI output... luckily that extra DVI adapter cable worked perfect for that as well!

What he means is "Audio is rarely played by the wide screen TV itself in a home theatre setting". (Audio is usually sent to a different device, like a 5/1 reciever, etc., so it's of little importance whether the cable carrying video information can or cannot carry audio, too.)
