    i5 2500K OC'd to 4.6Ghz, Hyper 212+ Push Pull, High Temperatures

    Possibly. I'm no aerodynamics guru or anything, but maybe the slower speed fan wasn't pulling the hot air out of the HSF fast enough and letting it linger?

    i5 2500K OC'd to 4.6Ghz, Hyper 212+ Push Pull, High Temperatures

    Either a bad chip or the mount is still not right. I have a 212+ in P/P with the HSF fan pulling and an Antec Tricool at medium pushing. 45 minutes of P95 Max Heat running 4.7Ghz and the cores are sitting at 65/71/69/68. Last idle was 37/38/35/37. Unrelated, but I think I got a gem of a 2500k...

    MC 2500k $60 off combo price with certain Z68 Gen3 MB

    Damn it, closest MC is 2.5 hours away. Although the bundle I just put together is $100 cheaper than Newegg. Decisions, decisions...

    Did I waste money on a soundcard?

    It's not just the 555s. I have a pair of 518's and the cracks developed on both sides after not even 1 month. The 518s were bought to replace my 555's that completely cracked. Great headphones but abysmal structural design.

    HT Omega Striker, Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro, or USB Creative X-Fi Surround?

    Yeah, I just picked up an STX to go with my Sennheiser 518s and all I can say is wow. Is this what I've been missing my whole life? I'm listening to MP3's that are medium quality and astounded at all the nuances and detail in the audio. I can't believe they're the same songs. Cannot recommend it...

    10 Years Ago Today

    Oh God, I remember buying my Vantec 6035D all copper HSF and being all giddy about putting it on my AMD K6-2 550. Christ.

    Driver San Francisco Review: A Beautiful Dream

    I'm a sucker for any game that has a 68-70 Charger in it. Damn it.

    Looking for good headphones

    By design, I meant the fact that they continually have the problem with cracking. They are extremely comfortable once the headband is broken in (minor "clamping" sensation when brand new), and the sound I feel is superb. The cracking is the only downfall of them. Basically this: Turned...

    Looking for good headphones

    I love my Sennheisers, but I hate that the design is horrible and they are doing nothing to fix it. Had a pair of 555s, now on a pair of 518s. Had the 555's for a little over a year, and I've had the 518's for less than 2 months, and there's already a crack developing where the drivers connect...

    Logitech G27 Racing Wheel $204.00

    I wish they'd make a good wheel compatible with Xbox. It's either drop $500 on a Fanatec or a crappy $100 wheel. That aside, this is pretty tempting.

    Visio VSB200 Soundbar - Refurbished - $55 FS - TigerDirect via eBay

    In for one for my mom's TV. Sound is awful with the integrated speakers.

    DICE Explains Differences Between BF3 PC and Console

    My biggest problem is the developers intentionally withholding content from the paid version of the game with in order to release it as paid DLC. DLC content within a week of the release date? Yeah, that's not shady at all.
