![]() Ike is no exception to this when he seeks her out to redeem his reputation which was marred by his own slanderous claims, he mercilessly teases her in front of her friends and family, who are surprisingly won over by this arrogant act. Having left three men at the altar, and engaged again, she is constantly ridiculed (albeit in good humor) by the residents of her small town for never following through with a wedding. Gere, as journalist Ike Graham, sets the story in motion by writing an insulting (and highly misogynistic) article about Roberts' character Maggie Carpenter, the infamous runaway bride he has heard about. On the other hand, despite the similar opposites-attract dynamic between Roberts and Gere in Runaway Bride, their relationship is a little less believable. They balance and bring depth to one another, so their connection feels genuine and seems to build fluidly. Throughout the movie, we see her gradually breaking down his walls with her addictive childlike curiosity and enthusiasm. She represents the fun and kindness which he is sorely in need of he represents the American dream she had never thought could be hers. They gradually meet in the middle, with Vivian undertaking a Pygmalion or My Fair Lady type of transformation. Vivian, meanwhile, is adrift in life, and although she is more open to embodying her emotions, she hasn't allowed herself to have confidence in her dreams. His business practice is largely unethical, and he has difficulty being vulnerable and expressing his emotions even outside of work. At the start of the movie, he is married to his work, with ex-partners inferring that they were closer to his secretary than him. Pretty Woman portrays the emotional journey and enchanting relationship which grows between Vivian Ward (Roberts), a sex worker, and Edward Lewis (Gere), a coldly shrewd business owner. Image via Buena Vista Pictures Distribution Pretty Woman employs better pacing, which makes the romance between the two seem to develop more organically, and also has stronger characterizations and writing, leading to a more fulfilling conclusion. However, these similarities are mostly surface-level and do not serve as magic ingredients for Runaway Bride. Furthermore, both films feature Gere saving Roberts from rude shop assistants, and Roberts knowing more than Gere about how cars work, triggering the first flickers of their romance. Some of the same actors even appear in both movies including Hector Elizondo and Larry Miller, who were both in The Princess Diaries as also directed by Garry Marshall, reinforcing the feeling of a Marshall rom-com universe. The plots both follow a similar line of unlikely and unexpected love, with the lead characters learning along the journey Gere's characters become more tender and vulnerable, whilst Roberts' characters develop more self-belief and ambition. In both films, Richard Gere is the cynical, driven professional Julia Roberts is the free spirit who changes his life. Although Pretty Woman has not always been loved by critics, the rom-com Runaway Bride, which was released almost a decade later in 1999 and also stars Roberts and Gere, was not nearly as beloved by audiences, despite also being directed by the late rom-com great, Garry Marshall. ![]() Considered as being paramount among the classic rom-com genre and even spawning a Broadway musical, it has had a huge cultural impact. ![]() Despite Roberts' character Vivian's eventual departure from the profession (which is simplistically and perhaps narrow-mindedly presented as being a better life choice for her), the film does not shame her for being a prostitute per se. It must also be noted that for the most part, it features a mostly open-minded and accepting presentation of sex work for its time. Although the premise of a wealthy entrepreneur falling for an escort is famously unrealistic, the chemistry between the leads is unforgettable, with slick comedy keeping the film moving, and fantastic acting. Pretty Woman is the iconic 1990 rom-com starring Julia Roberts and Richard Gere as romantic love interests.

This should enable more people to upgrade to 13th-gen processors without needing to change other components. Raptor Lake CPUs support DDR4 and DDR5 RAM, plus either current Intel 600 motherboards or the new 700 Series. Key features consistent across the range include a range of compatibility. The company says you can expect up to 15% better single-threaded performance and up to 41% better multi-core performance compared to Alder Lake in desktops, but that might not necessarily translate to real-world usage. That means a combination of performance and power efficiency cores, with the latter enabling sustained high-level performance. Intel is sticking with the x86 hybrid architecture it introduced with Alder Lake across all Rocket Lake CPUs. Genuine upgrades compared to the regular Core i9-13900K will be minor, but some tasks will see a small boost to performance. AMD’s top-spec Ryzen 7000 Series CPU can’t go higher than 5.85GHz. It’s the first to hit a single core clock speed of 6GHz at stock (without overclocking), so represents a significant step for Intel. Undoubtedly the big news here is the Core i9-13900KS, which breaks new ground among x86 processors designed for consumers. However, that does make them slightly cheaper. Remember, ‘KF’ branded chips are identical to their ‘K’ counterparts, aside from the missing integrated graphics – that’s UHD Graphics 770 in this case. Core i5-13500KF – 14 cores (6 performance, 8 efficiency), 20 threads, max clock speed 5.1GHz, 24Mb 元 cache, up to 16 PCIe 5.0 Lanes.Core i5-13500K – 14 cores (6 performance, 8 efficiency), 20 threads, max clock speed 5.1GHz, 24Mb 元 cache, up to 16 PCIe 5.0 Lanes.Core i7-13700KF – 16 cores (8 performance, 8 efficiency), 24 threads, max clock speed 5.4GHz, 30Mb 元 cache, up to 16 PCIe 5.0 Lanes.Core i7-13700K – 16 cores (8 performance, 8 efficiency), 24 threads, max clock speed 5.4GHz, 30Mb 元 cache, up to 16 PCIe 5.0 Lanes.Core i9-13900KF – 24 cores (8 performance, 16 efficiency), 32 threads, max clock speed 5.8GHz, 36Mb 元 cache, up to 16 PCIe 5.0 Lanes.Core i9-13900K – 24 cores (8 performance, 16 efficiency), 32 threads, max clock speed 5.8GHz, 36Mb 元 cache, up to 16 PCIe 5.0 Lanes.Core i9-13900KS – 24 cores, (8 performance, 16 efficiency), 32 threads, max clock speed 6.0GHz, 36Mb 元 cache, up to 16 PCIe 5.0 Lanes. ![]() Review InstallationsĪll Java version get installed here: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines lets take a look. ?

If you’re not a fan of HWMonitor, or the system monitoring software simply isn’t working out for you, be sure to check out our article on the Best System Monitoring Tools for your PC. ![]() If this is the case, I’d highly recommend returning the laptop and choosing something else. Unfortunately some laptops aren’t designed properly to handle heavy loads for extended periods of times and may cross into the 100☌ level. Laptop CPUs are designed to run a little warmer, so a good rule of thumb on those is to keep temperatures under 95☌. While each CPU and GPU has its own maximum temperatures, a good rule of thumb is to keep desktop CPUs under 70☌ and desktop GPUs under 100☌. HWMonitor has a clean, easy to use interface and will provide real time information such as utilization, temperature, clock speed, and power usage of the onboard components. One of the best free tools to monitor PC component temperatures is HWMonitor. ![]() While some applications such as AIDA64 or Intel XTU will come with the ability to measure component temperatures, some of the other benchmarks don’t have this ability, which is why it’s important to have some sort of system monitoring software to ensure that your first run of Prime95 or Furmark isn’t burning up your brand new components. Without further ado, let’s take a look.īefore stress testing the system, the most important thing to have is some sort of way to measure temperatures of the components in your system. To help you test your system, today we’ll be sharing the best tools we use here at Gear Primer for stress testing everything in a PC new or old. Sometimes it’s difficult to detect small issues with newly installed RAM or how compatible a new motherboard is with the rest of your components until you load it up and ensure it’s capable of running 100% stable even during periods of heavy load. If temperatures are far below thresholds, then overclocking may be an option to improve system performance.įor older systems, it’s always recommended to stress test after any sort of PC upgrades as well. For those who want additional performance by overclocking, performing stress testing will also help give you an idea of how much thermal headroom is available as well. In order to ensure that there’s no hidden problems, the most important thing to do after buying or building a new PC is to stress test the machine for at least 6 hours to ensure the CPU, RAM and GPU are completely stable. You power on your new PC and it seems to be working fine, but you want to make sure it’ll also be perfectly fine when the system has Battlefield loaded at the highest settings while streaming to Twitch for hours on hours. You’ve gone the whole nine yards making sure the entire system is cable managed to a tee, your bright RGB LEDs are installed in just the right spots, and there’s plenty of airflow flowing through the entire system. So you just spent days on days researching, purchasing, and/or building the perfect new gaming or workstation PC. 'The beauty of boho is its free spirit and eclectic look!

What is 7.1 audio?ħ.1 is similar to the 5.1 configuration, with the addition of two extra speakers placed on the viewer’s sides. This is an excellent option for people who want to enhance the audio experience of their home theater without the hassles of an overcomplicated setup. What is 5.1 audio?ĥ.1 is a standard configuration and requires five speakers: left, right, centre, left rear surround, right rear surround, and one subwoofer. ![]() In my experience, one subwoofer is enough to meet the demands of most home theaters, but if you feel lower frequencies are overshadowed, you can always place one on the opposite side of the room for an enveloping bass effect. The second number is the number of subwoofers: you can have one, two, or even more if your home theater requires it. The first number in the sequence refers to the number of speakers, for example, a 2.1 system is a surround system with two speakers, one on the left and one on the right. Understanding these numbers and what they mean is crucial if you want to understand how surround systems work and find the best solution for your home theater. If you started doing some research on building your surround system, you probably came across numbers like 2.1, 5.1, 7.1, 9.1, and more. It’s a crucial tool when creating a surround sound system, as it connects all your speakers to the audio source.Ī subwoofer reproduces the lower frequencies that speakers cannot reproduce faithfully: it’s a great addition to a surround sound system, especially if you want to emphasise the energy of low-frequency sounds, like explosions or heavy-bass music. ![]() ![]() This will upgrade your home theater’s audio quality, but you won’t feel immersed in sound.Ī receiver is a device that connects multiple speakers to your TV or playback device. You can start building your surround sound with a basic stereo setup: two speakers placed on each side of your TV, powered by a receiver. What you need to create a surround sound system at home are speakers, a receiver, and a subwoofer. Internal TV speakers and soundbars can create a limited sound spatiality, but if you want to get optimal results, you’ll need to have dedicated speakers for each channel and place them where the sound should come from. To achieve a cinematic experience, sounds should come from where the sound source is in the movie: a car coming from the left side should be heard from that side, a gunshot from the right side, and so on. In a surround sound system, each channel is dedicated to specific sounds: the central channel to dialogue, the left and right channels to the soundtrack and sound effects, and the subwoofer to lower frequencies. Surround sound in movie theaters replicates the way we experience audio in real life by placing speakers in all directions and having them reproduce certain sounds to immerse the listener in a realistic soundscape. I’ve had the chance to collaborate with many companies developing ground-breaking audio technologies, which means I know what the best surround systems in the market these days can deliver to viewers. I’ve worked in music and sound design for over a decade, and over time I developed an interest in audio technologies for home theaters.
