Gorilla Glass : Finding Out The Dangerous Way

“Ainol Novo: Ainol Novo 7 Flame use Chimei Innolux IPS screen gorilla glass with 1280*800 resolution, better than LG IPS Screen.”

I don’t know how we would find out if our Fire has gorilla glass. But, I just experienced dropping my Fire about 2 feet high into a tiled and cemented floor. It dropped face down. I had to say a little prayer before finally picking it up.

But alas! the screen is still intact, no damage at all, and the device is still functioning normally.

Sorry, but I don’t have enough courage to poke the screen with some keys or pound it with a hammer. hehe

I guess that’s confirmation enough that our Ainol Fire and Flame uses gorilla glass!!!

The PhysX Card

Generally, a dedicated PhysX card is not required, but it is a great option. A dedicated PhysX card is a great option if:

1. You have an extra Nvidia card lying around
2. You are playing games with hardware-accelerated PhysX
3. Of course, if you have an extra budget to purchase a dedicated PhysX card
4. Your PSU can support the main card and the PhysX card

 

Here is a good reference of using GTX 650 and GTX 460 as dedicated PhysX cards:
