Recommendations for new mobo using AMD processor

I am still successfully using my current computer built in 2008 with a K9A2 Platinum mobo. It has been a remarkably reliable mobo with literally no major problems over the years and the mobo has been easily expandable to whatever desktop hardware I have used with it. So I have been very impressed with MSI hardware technology.
But its time for a new modern mobo and computer system for me which will be a bit faster than what I am currently using. Considering how reliable the K9A2 platinum has been I am looking at buying a modern MSI mobo using one of the latest and best AMD processors. I am not a gamer, or even an overclocker, but I do want a flexible and reliable system to use. I am a programmer so that things like compilation/link/build speed and program number-crunching execution speed are important for me and of course absolutely good reliability.
I have been away from the latest computer hardware arena for a number of years, except to buy an occasional add-on for my current system, so I have to educate myself on the latest and greatest being offered, as well as new terminology. I have the money to spend for the best technologies in desktop use, and I enjoy putting together a top-flight system for what my own use case as a programmer. My computer will end up be multi-boot ( I use BIBM ) running mainly Windows 7 and/or Windows 8, as well as a smattering of Linux distros ( Suse, Fedora, Ubuntu mainly ).
I already have a top-end Lian-Li full-tower chassis, a PC-79, that can house most any type mobo, and has room to spare for almost anything I want to do with my new system.
Recommendations or suggestions about the latest MSI mobos using AMD CPUs would be welcome. With all the new technology out there it is hard to know what works well, is reliable, and is extensible for any new hardware, especially faster CPUs, in the future.

FM2+ CPU development is at the forefront. They are APUs and are meant as a unique processing unit that can perform better in terms of integrated Graphics than anything that Intel has to offer. Their current CPU performance is not competitive. So if you want raw CPU power, then the FX8 series is the better option.
Here are the benchmark tests as performed by chip.de who apply a consistent test for most current CPU/APU. http://www.chip.de/bestenlisten/Bestenliste-Desktop-Prozessoren--index/detail/id/693/
Benchmarks: PCMark 7 (1.0.4), Excel 2010 SP1-Monte-Carlo-Simulation, Cinebench RR11.5, 64Bit, WinRAR 4.01, 64Bit, TrueCrypt 7.1 AES-Twofish-Serpent, HandBrake 0.9.5,
A10-7850K (FM2+) 3381points 12.5 seconds 3.6 points 2.3MB/sec 155MB/sec 21.5fps
FX8350 (AM3+) 3243points 5.4 seconds 7.0 points 4.6MB/sec 259MB/sec 35.2fps
Benchmarks: CyberLink MediaEspresso 6.5, PovRay 3.7 RC3, 1.280x1024 no AA, Blender 2.49b,
A10-7850K (FM2+) 4.120sec 759 Pixel/s 72 secs
FX8350 (AM3+) 2.418sec 1 429 Pixel/s 55 secs
No socket or chipset will be out there forever. Just look at the frequent changes Intel makes and how AMD has been doing the same. So one has to make a decision on the best compromise available at the time and commit.
I can see the AM3+/AM3 CPUs are faster than the FM2+/FM2 APUs. Seems strange then that AMD would stop improving the AM3 line and go entirely with the FM2 line for the future. I understand graphics are big for gamers but still there are serious programmers/workers who want speed and also want to save a little money by buying AMD instead of Intel. I admit it looks like the higher end Intel CPUs are the speed champions, and I can certainly afford them if I want, but I have always gone for the friendlier AMD processors and mobos. Maybe I am just foolish since, unlike many who buy AMD for its overclocking ability, I am just looking for speed and reliability.
Thanks for all the information !

Looking for newer Mobo, like the MS-7345 Platinum P-35.

Hello,
I'm thinking about upgrading my P-35 MS-7345. I really like the MSI brand. I'm going on 5 years, but because of possible GPU issues (like screen ghosting, Non-responding, and timer continues to spin, even when I make a very simple video action, like adding a transition, everything freezes and hangs, to the point of rebooting.
Some people have asked if i updraded Win7 drivers for the MSI boardw hich i'm sure i did. Some asked me to check the board for bad or damaged caps, so I checked both the GPU, and Mobo, but could not see anything. Then someone told me it could be the Power supply...really?
In looking at Video cards, Like the PNY Quadro 600 ($150.00) requires a PCi-E 2.0x16, which I have now, but the higher end cards like the PNY Quadro 2000, ($400.00) and others, reqiuire a PCI-E 3.0x16.
WISHY WASHY~ Don't know if i should wait to get a new mobo, before I buy a new card, becuz it's going to be a while. I don't want to buy the Q600 DDR3 now, to be obsolete and a non-performer compared to the Q2000 DDR5, which would be more faster, then I wonder, i7, more DDR3 memory, and a new Mobo, then use a slower DDR3? Ummmmmm.
To be honest, I like MSI, I bought my new MSI Platinum five years ago, and love it! I'd like to keep it if i could, but technology supercedes practicallity, with the newer atx case with front USB 3.0 (mine is only 2.0....if it's backward compatible, then fine.) I'd like to ahead of the game, but not if i'm going to go BROKE!
With my old build, with the mobo, Intel Quad Q6600,700W Toughpower PSU, memory,hard drives, That set me back about $1200.00.
So..... for someone like me who is not a gamer, does not overclock, wants a minimum of 32GB DDR3, 700W PSU, three SATAII hard drives, does anyone have some Mainboard choices of newer LGA 1155 or 2011 that would either of these work?
This time, I'll need the i7 (or i5) new mobo, new DDR3 memory...up to minimum 16GB, maybe 32GB, and that's that. I'll use what I can,. or give or sell this tower and everything inside to my sister.
I was only looking at these two for specs:
Z77A-G43 DDR3 1600 LGA 1155 ($ 97.00) OR
X79A-GD65 (8D) ATX DDR3 2400 ($ 291.00)
I know the MS-7345 Platinum is off the production, but is there a board out there that's similar to the MS-7345 P-35? {it's just easy to set up.}

If you already looked at X79A-GD65 (8D) and you are going for 16GB ram minimum or 32GB a Socket 2011 Core i7 would be a good choice. If you are just looking for an easy to setup system a X79A-GD45-8D would be of the same socket without any flaws but still somewhat less expensive.

Recommendations for new Printer needed!

Hi!
Like a dolt, I dropped my printer and now it doesn't want to work anymore (imagine that!) I'm overwhelmed by the choices, so I was hoping to get a recommendation for a great all-purpose color ink jet printer for under $200. I do a lot of 8 x 10 prints that I like to frame so image quality is top priority.
Thanks so much in advance!
Amie

Here's a link to the Canon USA page for printers. Note there are several under $200. The ones that have a little red "new" by them use an ink system that's new from Canon.
http://consumer.usa.canon.com/ir/controller?act=ProductCatIndexAct&fcategoryid=103
Here's a quote I copied from one of the individual printer descriptions:
"A system for long-lasting photos.
The Canon ChromaLife100 system combines the PIXMA iP6220D Photo Printer's FINE print head technology and newly developed inks with select Canon photo papers, with results rivaling that of many conventional photos. These beautiful photos will also last up to 100 years when stored in an archival quality photo album."
I think you'd be very happy with a Canon. I understand Epsons are great, but they continue to have a problem with clogging if not treated with great care, and the Canon ink cartridges (one for each color, by the way) are less expensive, too. Canon paper seems a little harder to find, but I've also seen some good buys at Office Depot recently, so I think places are now stocking more since Canon has become such a big contender in the field of consumer grade inkjet printers. (Sorry for the huge runon sentence, but I'm too lazy to edit!)

NEED RECOMMENDATION FOR NEW MP3 PLAYER

I have a Clip+ and a Fuze+, but both are old and the battery will not hold a charge for very long. I've been considering the Clip Sport. I love the interface of my old Fuze+...the way all your music (internal and external drives) all show up on one list. I also saw on Sandisk.com that for the Clip Sport the higest SDHC card recommended for mp3 is 8GB. I can live with that, I guess. Does anyone find it inconvenient to go back and forth from the internal drive to the card when selecting music to play or for making a playlist? I'd really like to get a Clip Zip, but I found an grossly overpriced refurb on ebay. Does anyone know where I can find a reasonably priced Clip Zip? I'll be looking forward to hearing from users RE recommendations for a new player. Thanks in advance.

"I'd really like to get a Clip Zip, but I found an grossly overpriced refurb on ebay." Refurb Clip Zip 4GB players are priced at $30 on Ebay. Yes, new ones are a bit expensive. At less than half the price of a new one though, imo the refurbs are worth the risk, especially if you buy two of them. As for the Clip Sport, it has a limit of 2,000 songs for each of the internal memory and the card memory. I use 256 kbps mp3 for my music. It took around 14GB for me to reach the 2,000 song limit, so I use a 16GB card in my Clip Sport. A 16GB card holds around 14.6GB or so of files. The Sport can't combine songs from internal and card memory into a single playlist. I also have Clip+ and Clip Zip players which I have put Rockbox on. Rockbox is a free alternative firmware (operating system) which is available for the Clip+, Clip Zip, Fuze, and Fuze+, but not the Clip Sport or Clip Jam. Rockbox enables many additional features, and has a huge song database. Some format 128GB micro SDXC card as FAT 32, fill it with songs, and use it in a Rockboxed Clip+ or Rockboxed Clip Zip. The Clip Sport is okay if you don't have a large number of songs you want on the player. Some might buy a 4GB one for example, and use the internal storage for classical music and podcasts, and have a 16GB or 32GB card in it for rock music. If you are okay with 2,000 or fewer songs on a player, then the Clip Sport would be good for you. Yes, you could put around another 1,000 songs in internal memory at 256 kbps if you get an 8GB Sport, but then you couldn't integrate those together in a playlist with songs on the card. Depending on the average length of your songs, you might need a 32GB card to reach the 2,000 song limit, especially if your songs are at 320kbps mp3. Also keep in mind that Sandisk players(except for those that support Rockbox and have Rockbox installed on them) have trouble with cards faster than class 4, so using a Sandisk class 4 micro SDHC card is advise for maximum compatability. Some 32GB cards by other makers might cause problems in Sandisk players even if they are class 4 or slower.

Migration of balances for new ledger using the New GL

Hi everyone,
I have a specific scenario into this customer where we have implemented the SAP version ECC6.0 with the table FAGLFLEXT is active and using just one ledger (0L - standard). We need to create a new ledger for IFRS (e.g: 1L), as the customer didn´t use the splitting document functionality, it was not purchased the migration services.
Now I need to upload the balances in the accounts into new ledger, I understand that for general accounts there is no problem because I can use the transaction FB01L and specifying the new ledger (1L).
My doubt is : How can I to do the upload balances for open items into the AP and AR accounts?
Anybody can help me?
Thanks

Recommendation for new features in next Sun Studio releases

Hello,
I have started using the Sun Studio Express recently and as a feedback to your opening to receive proposals to new features in the next releases of the Sun Studio collection I would want to point some aspects of interest to the programmers in writing good software for embedded systems and not only.
First of all, with regards to the subject of great interest to me in this moment, multicore/multiprocessor parallel programming, I would appreciate the following :
- if the compiler would be extended with new directives to allow the programmer to measure the load of each core and/or processor that is available to him.
- if the compiler would be extended with directives to allow the programmer to get the core ID on which a specific section of code is executed. As en example consider o multithreaded application and in the associated function for each thread read the core ID and function of this value perform specific actions.
- if the compiler would be extended with directives to allow the programmer to get the ID of the processor in the system - supposing a specific system has many multicore processors. (I don't know if this is possible).
- if the compiler would be extended with directives to allow the programmer to specify the core and/or processor on which it wants to be executed a specific process,thread,function,(maybe instruction).
With these macros I think a lot of things can be exercised, one that I think in this moment is the posibility for the programmer to implement his own algorithm of load balancing for the cores and processors of his system.
Another point I would recommend would be that the watch window in the Sun Studio IDE to permit the selection of the format in which the data to be displayed.As an example if I have a U32 variable to be able to select in the watch window the integer ,hexadecimal or binary format in which I would want to be displayed.
Another useful thins that I sought at other IDEs would be a popup window or something similar to select how to see the source code: as a .c file , as an assembler code , or as a mixture of C and assemble.
That's all for the moment, if I see something else I would post another message.
Thank you,
Steve.

These are OS functions, not compiler's. Solaris has a wide selection of ways and tools to assign processes and threads to cpus; processor_bind(2) is a function you can call and pbind(1M) is a tool you can use on a running app. There are more, just google for it.
Another point I would recommend would be that the watch window in the Sun Studio IDE to permit the selection of the format in which the data to be displayed.As an example if I have a U32 variable to be able to select in the watch window the integer ,hexadecimal or binary format in which I would want to be displayed.
Good point. I'll check if there already is an RFE (Request For Enhancement) filed and file one if it's not. Thanks for letting us know!
Another useful thins that I sought at other IDEs would be a popup window or something similar to select how to see the source code: as a .c file , as an assembler code , or as a mixture of C and assemble.
But there is disassembly window already. See screenshot here: http://developers.sun.ru/images/stories/sunstudio/images/sun_studio_dbx.png

Seeking Recommendations for New System

I’m planning to upgrade my son’s Pentium II computer with the following components. Please give constructive comments for improvements, realizing that this is my limit in regard to costs:
MOBO – MSI K7N2 Delta-L or MSI KT6V-LSR or MSI KT4VL
Graphics Card --
RADEON 9600 PRO 128MB DDR AGP 8X W/TV-OUT/DVI or RADEON 9600 256MB DDR WITH CRT/DVI/TV-OUT or RADEON 9800SE 128MB W/TV OUT
CPU – AMD Athlon 2500+ Barton

Well, I can say, don't buy the 256mb vid card cuz its slower than the 128mb cards. And yes I do regret buying the one I have right now instead of a regular 128.
You can read this thread about one user's choice and why.
About the mobo, well... I like Intel chips better and don't have much experience with the amd setups, but I did notice that the deltas are often used in overclocking and have been proven as stable and reliable.
Please keep in mind that these are only opinions.
In reality, whatever you choose in that list will make for a good setup... exept for most 256mb vid cards(the high end ones are better, but not in everyones price range).
Good luck.
(EDIT) Oh and so that you know, 9800 is better than 9600, and rankings go like this:
se -> cheap alternative to the real thing
no ranking (known as non pro) -> the real thing as the were when they came out
pro -> performance version
xt -> super performance version
,and an 9600 xt is almost as good as a 9800 se (actually very close to it)
Ask around in the vid card forum for more input from others.
And the mobo, well like I said, I ain't no pro with the amd setups.

Recommendations for new hard drive

It looks like I will have to replace my hard drive--If I want to get one myself does anyone know of a good brand--I have a Gateway laptop that is 1 1/2 yrs old and it has 120 gb--
Thanks for the advice--

You will need to determine which type of drive you have in your Gateway laptop. It's either an "EIDE" or a "Serial ATA" drive. If your drive is crashed, you will not be able to tell from Control Panel/Hardware/Devices which type it is. Typically, laptop hard drives on newer (less than 3 years old) are fairly cumbersome to remove. It may actually require taking the case apart to get to the drive. You will need the manufacturer and model number. It may say EIDE or SATA on the case of the drive.
If you reply here with the model of the laptop, I can look online for you.
When you determine the form factor of the drive (SATA, EIDE) you should look for either a Western Digital, Maxtor or Segate drive. Here are some links to the drives on the BB website.
Western EIDE
Western Digital SATA
Both are around $80.00 and are 250GB.
Good luck and let me know if I can help you with researching the drive.

WM: I'm looking into a good tiling windows manager that supports dual screens.
Xmonad Awesome ... there are several options, I suggest trying a few of them to see which has a style you like, as well as which of them support duel screens.
Also take a look at screen. It splits your console up into sections, and when combined with dvtm, it makes a good "tiling WM" without needing X. I am not sure how well it handles multi-monitor set ups though, as I have never had the inclination to try it out.
Password Management: I have very complex passwords, that I cannot remember and have been using Keepass for Windows. I know about KeepassX but if there is a cli program, I would prefer it.
it looks like, based on a couple of searches of the AUR and the repos, that pwsafe is the only cli-specific password manager. There are others though that do not specify if they are cli or gui based.
Panel: Something lightweight and doesn't have many icons or any at all.
My vote is for tint2, because it supports transparency from xcompmgr(-dana) + transset-df. It supports system trays and a lack of icons for any iconified programs. (iconified means minimized in Window's terms, fyi)
Video Player: Need support for Xvid/x264 and that's about it
VLC or mplayer. mplayer I know works nicely in framebuffer. I use it that way myself when I just want to watch movies. (Arch boots faster than my DVD player...)
Music Player: Looking for a CLI Version of songbird or something with good library management
MPD. I would go with that one. There is not much to argue for it over xmms, but I liked it better personally.
Browser: I love Firefox, but I'm open to anything as long as it has good documentation.
uzbl is pretty good, but it is still alpha level... links-g & elinks are also pretty nice as cli-centric browsers. (You can always keep a copy of Firefox/Chromium for when you're in the GUI.
Multiprotocol IM CLI based with MSN and AIM support
Pidgin + Fitch. I have never actually used fitch, but I use pidgin a good bit.

I have a newer MacBook Pro with an AMD processor. It is my understanding that Parallels can only be used on Mac's with Intel Processors. Is that true and if so does anyone have recommendations about how to have a windows side to my Mac

Then it either is a pirate clone or you are misinformed.
Apple Computer has never used AMD processors in its products.
However, the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) is a Radeon unit, which is an AMD subsidiary. Parallels, VMWare, VirtualBox will all work fine with the Intel Core i7 or i5 CPU that powers the Mac, and use the AMD Radeon GPU that drives the displays.

SAP BI Dataflow for new GL

Hi Experts. I have seen the following dataflow for the new GL
0FI_GL_10 --> 0FI_GL_10 --> 0FIGL_C10 (for Totals)
0FI_GL_14 --> 0FIGL_O14 (for Line item)
Question1: The DSO 0FIGL_O14 does not feed the cube. Any particular reason for that?
So If I want line item reporting my best solution will be RRI? Correct!!
Question2: SAP recommended dataflow for new GL uses virtual cube 0FIGL_V10. Why do we need it or what reporting needs it satisfies?
Thanks.

U already have GL totals available at 0FIGL_C10 and then no point in loading line items (O14) again to cube.
Yes.. Best approach for line item reports is RRI i.e. from 0FIGL_C10 to O14.
Question2: SAP recommended dataflow for new GL uses virtual cube 0FIGL_V10. Why do we need it or what reporting needs it satisfies?
SAP delivered function module RS_BCT_FIGL_DATA_GET_VC10 pulls data from 0FIGL_C10 to load 0FIGL_V10... Logic for cumulative balances considering carry forward balances from previous year for Balance sheet & P/L reports, is maintained in that function module.
(So, make sure this FM got installed while u installed standard content for GL model
Do the following, to see weather FM got installed.
Goto change mode of virtual provider (ZFIGL_V10). click information icon (blue 'i')
click 'Type/ Namespace'.. Then click 'details' button
If there is no FM, u won't get any data to 0FIGL_V10 and related queries.
And also 0FIGL_V10 uses Financial Statement Version object (0GLACCEXT), which is not available in 0FIGL_C10.
For Balance sheet & P/L reports, 0GLACCEXT is key object, so 0FIGL_VC10 is must.
U should install & load master (attr, hier, text) data for 0GLACCEXT.
