    Absolute smallest case that will fit low-profile GPU

    I have a GT630 with the same cooler as almalino, and it really is a pretty big chunk of aluminum. the card itself is tiny (it's an PCI-e 8X card, so half length connector), and it's rated at only 25w, so i'm guessing if you could find something similar, and a good PCI-e riser, you could even...

    Out of the loop intel wise

    My last intel build was a core 2 duo e4300, last night i built a s1155 mITX machine, it's all pretty straightforward.

    Need some build help

    If you're going with a discrete GPU, you're better off with a x4 760k then the A10, cheaper, and you wont be paying for a GPU bit you wont be using. And actually, you might want to consider going for a haswell i3 instead of the AMD chip, i cant speak for all cases, but even a lowly haswell...

    How much can a cheiftec BT-02B PSU handle?

    I just found a better plan: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/mini-itx-gaming-radeon-hd-7750,3369.html Mostly this, but with a different mobo, no 3.5" hdd or optical drive, and a slower GPU. It'll be smaller then the BT-02 based build.

    How much can a cheiftec BT-02B PSU handle?

    Hi guys I'm contemplating a cheap but small linux box, with just one main purpose (run kerbal space program), which means some amount of CPU grunt (KSP is single threaded, so i'm going for a cheapo dualcore haswell), and a half-decent video card. So my proposed specs would be: Intel...

    netbook or android tablet

    the main question is, what do you want to do on the go? I have a 7" android tab, and i only use it as a big screen video player on the go. Anything bigger would be seriously uncomfortable to hold in public transport. Typing also isnt exactly stellar on a touch-screen. I am thinking of doing...

    Portable mp3/video player that isnt an ipod touch

    The specs on the cowon looks impressive, but at the price of a 8gb D3, i am only 40 euros (just over 10%) away from a galaxy tab wifi, which i am also cautiously considering, it would be far superior for video purposes, and also be usefull at home

    Portable mp3/video player that isnt an ipod touch

    Hi guys, Yesterday my ipod touch once again proved to me that trying to use one of those damned i-devices without itunes is asking for trouble, and given that i run linux (and hate itunes with a passion), managing my ipod is a huge chore, On top of that, 8 gigs is becomming a bit cramped...

    Programming in Android?

    yeah, install eclipse and the android SDK, do the hello world example and try to understand what is going on with activities and such, next, start screwing around with different layouts and buttons and such to make a simple app

    New Phenom II

    yeah, even on my old x2 7750, overclocking the NB/L3 made a nice difference

    Raid O total

    methinks he is just confusing raid 1 and 0, i did too, untill i read the following line somewhere: "The 0 in Raid 0 stands for the amount of data you have left when one drive dies"

    Getting a Xbox 360...advice for good older cheaper games?

    Project Gotham Racing 3 + 4 Forza 3 Fable 2 (despite everyone being once again let down by molyneuxs hype, it is good) Star wars TFU Ninja Gaiden II (this is hard) and on XBLA, pick up Geometry wars, it will blow your mind
