    Did my Enermax Liberty die?

    My Enermax Liberty 620 died spectacularly two nights ago. I was playing a round of BF2142, and halfway during the round, I heard through my headphones very loud *zzzzzzzt* *zzzt* *ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZTTTTTTTT* Then, some fireworks from the direction of my computer an total shutdown...

    IT Resume Thread

    As a general guideline (and the fact that I just updated my resume) all resumes should really be focused more on accomplishments rather than just job descriptions. That will catch the eyes of recruiters/HR/managers rather than saying "call center support" you can state "Created a pre-sales help...

    where/how did you get your MCSE?

    I got mine in a box of Cracker Jack. :) Seriously, I got my NT 4.0 MCSE (yes, it was that long ago) by actually working with the OS and sharpening my skills. Yes, the books are good to help you get by with the wording of the questions on the exam, but nothing beats real experience. The...

    best case with best air flow?

    I'm another fan of the Centurion 5 by Cooler Master. I have built 3 computers with that case, and it is pretty solid. Has 120mm in the rear and an 80 in the front. You can add 120s with no problems. Front is all mesh, so you could use negative pressure to draw air in the front.

    New build wont boot.. help plz

    Doubt it's XP. Could be the NVIDIA video drivers bluescreening on you (and rebooting after the minidump). What do the event logs state? I would boot into safe mode and remove all the NVIDIA drivers, then reinstall. Make sure that you change the settings in the system control panel ->...

    Coolermaster Stacker 830 side-panel 4 rack

    Yeah, I got them from tiger direct (http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1456372&CatId=802). I really don't like the LED fans all that much, and with the green 9500 that I have, the blue would have clashed. :) Although, I did see these green plasma disks...

    Coolermaster Stacker 830 side-panel 4 rack

    I bought the ULTRA 120mm fans (non-LED) and they seem to do the trick. To attach another fan to the front of the case, the official way would be to buy another 4 in 3 cage and attach it to that. Otherwise, you'll have to wing it. :)

    Quad SLI Performance Decrease

    Well, the reformat happened *before* all the problems. :) Anyway, for BF2, all I did was clear the cached textures and it seemed to have cleared it (maybe even 1.4). I'm going to check the other games and see what the story is. Possibly all the driver option changes didn't work properly...

    It's very easy. One clip and it's out.

    Quad SLI Performance Decrease

    Well, beats the crap out of me. :) I played BF2 for an hour and a half (1.4). FRAPS showed my FPS between 85 and 101 with all the bells and whistles. Maybe it was 1.3...now to check the other games as well.

    Quad SLI Performance Decrease

    I have 4 120mm fans blowing directly on the MB (two right above the video cards. Throttle threshold is 122 degrees C, and I'm not reaching by a long shot in any of the games. As for resources, I recently re-installed the OS, etc. Virus and spyware free. :) I'll see if I can log the temps...
