    Rebuilt my 'client' HTPC

    Figured others may have similar circumstances, this may help those that want to know before they spend. My previous box was a full desktop (an old Antec nsk2480, i5 2400, 1050ti, 8GB, 6TB drive space with a 250GB SSD boot drive), that had been updated periodically. Initially it was both...

    New house, wired cat6, new issues.

    Hey guys, I'm somewhat stuck, and looking for a second opinion. I just took possession of my new house last Friday. When I called to move my internet (or cancel it and go with the local competitor), Bell offered to bump my speed from 50 / 5 mbps to 100 / 15, for the same price, with 50% off...

    Current room scale implimentations

    So I've moved this conversation here. In a previous thread I compared the current 'room scale' implimentation (specifically both Vive wands and the unlreleased Oculus Touch) to the Wiimotes on their initial release. I sensed hostility. :) I fully admit that I've only used the Vive wands for...

    WTB: 6800gt reference cooler

    Hey guys, The fans on the cooler died on one of the cards here. Anyone know where I could pick up another? It's an older card, so buying an after market cooler for it seems... excessive.

    Down a quad

    Down a quad for the next week or so, a friend's system bit the dust so I let him borrow one of mine... oh well, it'll give some people a chance to close the gap :D

    Terabyte drives: WD GP or Samsung F1

    I'm wondering if anyone here has first hand experience with either or both drives? I'm going to pick up one or the other in the next week or so and I can't seem to decide, so I'm going to let my fellow forum members do it for me :p The drive will be going into my mythbox to replace the aged...

    OC on a P35-DS3L

    How many people here have experience with this board? I got it as a budget solution for a Q6600. It's fine at stock voltages up to 3Ghz, but doesn't want to stay stable if I push up to or past 3.2, even if I up the voltage. I'm not popping the vcore further than 1.35v currently, as it looks...

    EvilAlchemist...

    I may not be able to stop you from passing me, but I'm going to try and make it as difficult as possible :D If I can ramp up enough to get you off my radar... all the better :) In the meantime, I'm gonna try and catch up to Defex

    Change over

    Well, my points might dip for a few days. I got my q6600, I've been testing her for stability... I have it sitting at 3.4 right now, so the old x2 will get back up and running in the next day or two :) Yay! Quad!

    slow down

    I had to swap some parts around in my own systems to fix up a friend's computer, and now I find a few don't want to behave anymore :eek: So, I'm going to earn a little slower until I can get it sorted. I'll be back. Faster, stronger, better than before. Or barring that, these systems...

    Anyone folding with a Phenom yet?

    Since all my systems are AMD boxes, these procs would be an easy upgrade path for quad-core goodness... just wondering if anyone has anything to share on how fast they fold :D Charlie

    Fedora 7

    Mirrors and torrents, yay! A lot of the mirrors seem jammed, but the torrents are cruising along nicely. I love the release time of year ;) Charlie

    Asus N6200 S-video poll

    Okay, I picked up this card online, thinking it had S-video via the specs. Unfortunately, it's composite. It appears to have the svid pinout on the board, and I just happen to have a few cards around here that can 'donate' the connector. I would prefer not having to ship it away for...

    WTB: Athlon 64 X2 4400+ or higher, S939

    Just like the title says, I'm looking to get a little more life out of my 3500+ system. Opteron works as well, of course :) If it makes much of a difference, I'm in Canada. Looking to spend anywhere from $100 - $150, not sure what a realistic price would be at this point however so I may need...
