So as it seems that 4K is getting popular these days, but some people who have older computers may have some trouble playing 4K videos. Especially 10bit HEVC (x265) format. But the support for hardware decoding of HEVC 10 bit videos has been added few years ago. First of all lets see whether this hardware decoding is better than normal software(CPU) decoding compared with power. We won't be playing a game while watching a movie of course, at least not with a single monitor setup. So we can stop worrying about GPU usage going for 100% while watching a movie.

In other words, today’s malicious programs tend to be written in order to further provide profit to their authors in one form or another. Here are just a few illustrations: the different variants of ransomware encrypt one’s files and employ smart extortion techniques to exchange the data for Bitcoins; rogue security tools report imaginary viruses on a PC and insist on the victim purchasing the worthless license so that the purportedly detected items can be eradicated; adware extensions forcibly change users’ web browsing defaults in order to serve ads and get paid for this by the interested parties. It’s all about money. In this highly mercantile business framework, pests like the ...

There are more than 2000 million desktop computers today.But not all of them take the full advantage of their powerful PC.They waste them while doing various kind of work.They do not think that their processor can do a lot more than that, and of course they don't have so much work to process. Now you can contribute your free capacity for projects such as FightAIDs ,Mapping Cancer Markers etc. These projects are very important for the human kind. There are nearly 2.3 million PCs joined this grid.The technological sponsor is the IBM company.There are over 650,000 volunteers and 21 projects running using this grid. If we consider about the power of this grid,te work done using this grid a year would take more than 20,000 years to complete in a normal way.So it's time to think about the humanity.Contri...
