tstddj's computer geek puzzle giveaway [now with solutions]

you put the wrong answer for question 3 btw.

What is the format for #4?

Nameofcompany, nameofaccelerator?

Or without the comma?

grrr cant get #11

Already have the game... Thanks anyways!

For all who cant get 11 -> it was worst because of NetBurst architecture, first models were socket 423, later 478 and at end lga-775. Late models were also known for way too much heat.

4 is impossible...

Oh, THANK YOU for making it contributor, i'll only contribute once i win something here, i spent alot of time trying to do this, you know?

Any clue for #7? only one im missing and im ashamed to say i dont have a clue.

i knew 12 of the 15 questions off the top of my head, though for some of them (like #9) i had to guess a few times to get your version of the name. #7 was my favorite because i still remember wondering if i should buy one of those instead of intel. also, for #11 i'm pretty sure it was always marketed with the arabic numeral not the roman numeral.

Great quiz, and I love how you worded you first post ;)

mfw I already had the game

I have problems with Q4.I'm sure I have the right name

You should note that it's contributors only.

hmmm, only number 6 left...

Nice puzzle/quiz, Already own the game unfortunately :o(

9 then, hmm just how should it be written...

Got it...

I've done all apart from 4 and I'm not really sure what it is, I've tried things in the right format and it didn't work

nice one, but already have. Thanks, it was fun.

Technically the card in question 4 wasn't the first 3D accelerator. Sure it was the best, or if you contrast that with "2D/3D accelerator' that may be right, but there were others before it.

Anyway a quiz that's up my alley but I'm not going to answer it. Just 'cause.

Damnit, completed the puzzle and now the giveaway is only for contributors. :P

Interesting way of doing a giveaway, tough. :)

What a bullshit question that number 7 is!

There is no excuse for not solving this with all those hints!

Thanks for giveaway

Thanks, sweet puzzle.
I didn't enter the giveaway I just wanted to do the puzzle.
I love the questions, these are questions that people should know really unless they are new to the computer world..

Thanks
