The air will work its way out eventually, but it goes a lot faster if the res is at the highest point in the loop.

Dang Rage. I remember when you started the build of the first server (page 1). Except I followed that build on that other forum (Ph... you know). Can't wait to see the new build finished.

I just built a new rig for my brother with the Lian Li PC-K7B and it's remarkably quiet. Great case to work on, too.

Most cases are 6-32. Lian Li uses 3mm metric threads (don't remember the pitch off the top of my head)

Bump for the DL380. Great servers.

Nice wallpaper! I'm actually wearing that TWLOHA shirt as I post this :D

Lego's are great insulators - they're plastic and hollow, so they won't conduct heat at all. You'll have to put some case fans in your design, but if you do that right, I don't think you'll have any cooling problems. Just engineer the airflow well.

Theoretically, you could have your web server check the client header in the HTTP request, and only allow the flash player access based on that - but any decent power user will be able to spoof an HTTP header with minimal effort. I can't think of a good way to encrypt the XML file and then have...

So, my uncle posed an interesting question to me today, which had me completely puzzled. I had never thought of how multi-processor systems work at the electrical level - how they get data from the bus and put it back onto the bus. Basically, how does each core know when to pick up data from...

And aluminum conducts heat faster, right? I was under the impression that since the aluminum plate is for transferring heat, not dissipating it, so you would be more worried about conductivity than specific heat.

Why don't you just go read the meter that's on the back of your house every day? You're basically asking for the same data the power company uses to bill you, and that's how they do it.

I've seen normal camo done, but I don't think I've ever seen digital. That might look pretty cool, depending on what colors you used.

QFT. I don't really like it. Lian-Li was one of the last companies with completely clean case designs. Give us the old school ATC designed CM cases. Not even the new Silverstone stuff holds up to that.

I'm in need of a black floppy cable (to split into 10-pin segments for things like internal USB, serial, etc) and I couldn't find any lying around. Does anyone have one? I think Asus and Abit package them with motherboards. (Please note that I am not looking for a rounded cable. Just a nice...

My productivity would probably increase if they blocked facebook. Although I might just spend the time on [H] instead.
