    Received the Core i7-860, but I couldn't get it to 5.0ghz on air. Total ripoff. Just kidding! Good sale, good communication!

    I'm going to do some testing with the fan for the other card turned down to 50%, i probably won't post anymore screenies, but I'll post the temp results.

    Modding an H60 for my 6870 MSI

    I used them all up trying to perfect the positioning. After adding all other ramsinks, the loctite444, and adjusting the zipties slightly: Temps at idle: Temps at "load", BFBC2 @ 1920x1200 @ 16xAF 16xSSAA(i think read below), Vsync was turned on by accident (and I meant to write 60-63deg max...

    Modding an H60 for my 6870 MSI

    Excuse my poor pics and poor hosting choice! The system all together (minus that ramsink that decided to fall off due to my poor usage of thermal adhesive): A close up inside the case, blurry: The card overhead, showing my ghetto zipties: A side view, notice how clean I am with those...

    Modding an H60 for my 6870 MSI

    I'll probably throw some on to reinforce the zipties, I have Loctite 444 which states "for printed circuit board assembly", and has a thermal conductivity of only 0.11 so i'll minimize the use of it...

    Yet another article to discuss piracy. I tip my hat to Team Meat.

    Piracy won't matter nearly as much years to come as every major release will be "on the cloud" or "always connected". Basically every company will be "big brother" and they will be watching. Hackers/Piraters will have to get much better than a simple CD Key Gen or a Crack... They'll have to...

    Nook Color Question

    You should look on the XNA forums about setting up a Dual Boot, or having a rooted/non-stock OS on a fast SD Card. Rooted, OC'd stock is probably the best for no-hassle usage.

    MSI N580GTX Lightning XE 3GB Video Card Review @ [H]

    I'd like to see The Witcher 2 added as a benchmark (though there are issues with both nvidia and ati cards atm). Its an extremely beautiful game on a unique engine and I think would provide some great insight into the more modern features/performance of GPU's.

    Just got the Nook Color. In one word...Awesome

    it does not have on included jordan. The usb plugs into the bottom, so there is a good chance that someone has/will make one. There is a pretty large community of modders on this device specifically, and it has proven extremely useful as a PDF viewer (wiring diagrams, technical manuals ). And...

    Just got the Nook Color. In one word...Awesome

    I jumped on the $50 ebay coupon a few days ago, had some trouble with the rooting ( i was getting greedy and trying to dual boot), for the life of me can't get APK to work (my windows refuses to let me install its own drivers, no matter what settings I change / messing with device manager)...

    Build a Triple-Screen Beast for $983

    Apparently the OP built his in early 2010, so many of those parts weren't nearly that cheap... but for someone trying to copy this guy, that is a great $1k rig. And if you don't like 3x screens, replace it with one 22-24in.

    Blizzard Kicked Over 320,000 Hackers from Battle.net

    I looked into it more and you're correct. I've been away for two weeks (away from access to internet at all) and my initial reading of the story made it sound as though it either: A. was 310 no matter what or B. Was BoA and scaled to 310 even on your characters you didn't earn 310 on. That...

    Blizzard Kicked Over 320,000 Hackers from Battle.net

    Actually, mounts in the game have different speed ratings, and before this horse came out you needed to do a significant achievement in game to receive one with the fastest speed rating , "a 310 mount". You either had to do very well in the PvP (Arena) game or very well in the PvE game...

    Rumor: Is Steam Coming to Mac?

    What job does a mac do well that a pc doesn't ? ( note: its 2010, the photoshop argument is a dead one. ) To me, buying a mac with the intentions to game / mod / tweak / whatever is purposely crippling yourself. You are buying a sedan to do a pickup truck's job. Furthermore, the...

    And your wife and I could power the whole city ! zing! just kidding. I could see this tech powering a bluetooth or a music player... anything more than that would probably involve some stupidly large + heavy battery pack. ( stupidly large being anything larger than a D-cell, imo )

    Rumor: Is Steam Coming to Mac?

    I propose that a mac owner ( and solely a mac user ) could ever consider themselves [H]ard. The entire idea of the mac goes against the entire idea of what this site is about. ( modding, tweaking, building, benching, OC'ing, accidently freezing in a barrel of liquid nitrogen-ing ). eh ...

    1M Fewer Music Download Buyers in '09

    That sucks that there is no longer any spark in your life/soul/being that you feel that you don't need/want to experience *any* new music. Even my grandmother comments to me from time to time about stuff she hears that is new/interesting to her.
