    Bought New Xbox One S (Was unit used?)

    Thanks for the insight, I checked the serial number on the box and the units serial number sticker on the back and they matched. I also just figured out how to check the serial number in the console settings. I bought the unit for my nephew and the last console I owned was the original Xbox...LOL

    Bought New Xbox One S (Was unit used?)

    I bought a new Xbox One S during the Black Friday sale from Walmart Online and just picked it up. Upon starting it and letting the Xbox update the system and setting up my email and all the normal Microsoft startup requirements, I noticed something weird. As I was going to put my included Halo...

    240v pc anyone else

    I've used my Corsair AX1200 like that for a few years and other PSU's. Your efficiency should go up a few percentage points depending on load. I forget the specific value for that PSU but they were better.

    Unlocking max turbo bins of Xeons on X99?1

    I was pretty set on Ryzen and considering upgrading either now or waiting until Naples came out. Now I'm thinking this might be cheaper and better performance for heavy workloads/multitasking.

    UPS Battery Life?

    Anyone have some decent experience with this software. I downloaded the demo and it seems to be pretty decent for image stabilization. The software looks to go for $299 but for presidents day it's only $69.99 so I'm thinking about purchasing it if there's nothing better for the price. I tried my...

    Generic Toner Recommendations

    My warranty is likely no longer good since I believe my printer is more than a year old. Out of curiosity I looked up the price of a new fuser for the printer and it's roughly $140. Replacing the fuser doesn't really scare me as I really haven't ever failed fixing anything. I've rebuilt...

    Cell Phone Video Recording Length Issues

    I just purchased a Moto X Pure (32GB model with U1 PNY 128 GB microsd) and need to use it to record long videos. I tried the 4k option and I only get about 10 minutes and the video size is 3.79 GB roughly before it ends recording and states "video recording size reached, stopped recording." I...

    Micro SD to Hard Drive Copy Automatic

    Planning to go on a back packing trip that I'd like to document. I'm taking my Mobius HD camera and will be recording in 1080p for those 7 days. I figure every day I'll probably have 12 hrs of record time which means I'll be recording about 100 GB's a day. I have a custom battery setup I made...

    Alphacool Watercooling Setup 1200W + Heat

I'll be purchasing 4 of the Alphacool GPU water-cooling blocks. As far as pumps go and resevoirs, I'm thinking of going with the kit below. Do you think a...

    Anker 20,000mAh Portable Charger $40 Free Shipping Amazon

    The battery extender I linked comes with either Samsung, LG, or Sony. I like Panasonic 18650's the best but they come at a premium. This unit has an 18 month warranty and should last you well over 500 cycles. Typically a quality 18650 will last 500-2000 cycles if treated right and will have...

    how long should UPS batteries last?

    I wish nickel Iron battery packs were cheaper and more available. This technology has been around for over a century and the batteries last decades if done right. The downside is energy density is typically less and they are hard to find.

    The US Owes The World $4 Trillion For Trashing The Climate

    There's a lot of hole here and I'll just throw some facts here. I've written a few technical papers here and these are some samples on a rough draft I had. Did you now in the 50's-60's the scientific community believed the world was cooling and considered dumping dark carbon material so the...

    Do "Redmere" HDMI cables introduce input lag?

    I run the monoprice Redmere cables in my home theater setup with my LG OLED tv. I like them because they are extremely thin and make cable management a breeze.

    Seasinic X 850 dual pci-e cable, safe to use?

    I can speak on this no doubt. The dual 6+2 plug design while works for most people does fail. I know this for a fact as I'm melted the insulation off the wires and they shorted on a 7950 setup I had. This was on a Seasonic X Series 850 watt. I've also had this same thing happen to a XFX 850...

    The US Owes The World $4 Trillion For Trashing The Climate

    I'm a biochemist and the first thing people need to realize is nature and chemical reactions are virtually never static. Things change and this has been going on for centuries. If or when a species dies and theirs a void, another species evolves or adapts and fill the niche. There are so many...

    The US Owes The World $4 Trillion For Trashing The Climate

    The world can thank the USA then for all the innovation that came in the 19-20th century. Does this mean since there's more Carbon Dioxide in the air we can charge money since photosynthesis depends on Carbon Dioxide. While we are at it, we should charge the world a tax because of the supposed...

    MalwareBytes Pro Lifetime Licenses $12, 2 For $22

    I'd buy one for sure if you have a receipt or a picture of the key on the normal envelope the disc comes in. This way if I have activation issues later on in the following years I can use the pic as proof of ownership.

    Recertified 960GB M500 from Crucual.com

    FYI I had my crucial M500 960GB unit die on me this past week. It refused to be seen in the Bios. Past 4 months at least 5 times the pc wouldn't see the SSD drive. I'd have to pull the PSU power cord and hold the power button down on the chassis to drain all power. Then upon power up it would...

    MalwareBytes Pro Lifetime Licenses $12, 2 For $22

    I maybe interested in this but have a few questions. Are these the older keys that use a USER ID and then a serial key? Also did you purchase these from an approved source. Reason being is there are many key generators that use the same key that apparently Malwarebytes will be blacklisting at...

    The EPA Accidentally Turned This River Toxic And Orange

    Whether or not the EPA conspired to actually screw this up, who knows for sure. The fact remains they messed up big time. It's funny how if this was a private company the EPA would be all over their asses. The EPA deep down wanted this to become a Superfund Site, and it will probably become...
