wow lol that pretty much sums up the article.

Less tech savvy people will ask you to teach them how to use it. Which I find will be annoying o_o.

AWESOMEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

You can use a PWM fan splitter. http://www.svc.com/fc444pwm-12bks.html

I have no problems with it on Windows 7 Professional. Might wanna try running it as administrator and/or compatibility settings if it doesn't work.

Only way to know which is the best is to overclock each one individually. Running it without thermal paste is a bad idea as cpus get hot pretty quick, especially the i7.

The higher the better for large files. If 256K is the limit then I would do 256K.

Have you updated to the latest chipset drivers? I had an issue with my ASUS drivers working with Windows 7 and would lockup for 20 secs like yours would randomly then become responsive again. I updated to newer chipset drivers and that seemed to fix the issues.

How much RAM does your system have? The thing I would worry about with the pagefile on the SSD is probably fragmentation that could occur if you let the pagefile be system managed. Maybe you could set a set limit for the pagefile size and prevent fragmentation on the SSD. Otherwise, I think the...

For RAID, you will need at least two drives for RAID 0 or RAID 1. Other RAID varieties required more drives. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID Its pretty easy to setup the RAID array. All you have to do is start up the RAID utility from the motherboard after POST and select the drives that...

The world won't end. Life would be like the 1970s probably.

I suggest a memtest.

im in.

Maybe some of the numbers are from people installing windows 7 and downloading firefox again. So its not really any new user numbers probably.

Also if you want to get some pickup in the acceleration/hp of your car, look to ram air ducting. I did a DIY on my car with some cheap dryer ducting and attached it to open sections on my front bumper that leads to a cone type filter. The concept is, the faster you go, the more air gets rammed...

Colder air is harder to be combusted because of the lower temperature and the greater need for energy to burn fuel. Air that is hotter has more energy in it so fuel is combusted easier. Even if you cool the incoming air, the effect would be small or negligible because the air will either get...

Usually a heatsink with a backplate is screwed down from inside the case. Its best to unscrew it while the case is laying on its side. Once you remove the heatsink, you can remove the motherboard and the backplate. When you install a heatsink on the motherboard, I find it easier to install the...

Could it play crysis?

As long as there hasn't been physical modifications (heat spreader removal or lapping) and still retains its original serial numbers/model numbers etc., it should be fine. Even if it was overclocked before there shouldn't be anything wrong with the CPU (if it works, it works). I've had CPUs...

bake it!

Do selective amputations on his body, cook the meat, and force feed it to him.

If content has little right to be used, then why is there distribution of media?

I knew someone who used to unload packages at UPS. Plenty of drop kicking and tossing of boxes for fun.

RAM can be run with a divider to the FSB so you can increase or decrease RAM speed relative to the FSB.

CPU voltage is tied to stability and what current the CPU needs to be operational. The increase of the FSB may cause an increase in voltage requirements for the CPU to remain operational as more speed requires more resources to run. CPU speed is tied to the multiplication of the FSB and the...

Should be 600GB

Vista SP2 is really buggy IMO. I had issues where it would get past the loading screen and blank out before the welcome screen. In my experience, I had to revert back to SP1.

First check the power switch cable for the case and see if it is hooked up properly to the motherboard. The power supply would be the first component to check (also make sure you have the right voltage setting on the back switch for where you live: 115V for AC and 240V for DC). Try swapping...

He should ditch his 80GB and just use the 1TB and partition it.

When there is fragmentation on the disk drive, the whole drive is affected if its a single partition--it isn't faster. Performance is reduced because files and data will be scattered across the whole drive and makes seeking/reading longer in a single partition, so fragmentation degrades the...

Partitions are good actually. If anything happens to your windows partition, you still have your data safe on a separate partition. You can reformat without losing data--this has saved me countless times when windows became corrupted and irrecoverable.

Most people are using realtemp or coretemp to monitor cpu temps. Although it doesn't have cpu temp monitoring, crystalcpuid is another handy tool that makes looking at system information easy.

Two home premiums that are going on my desktop and laptop. Didn't see the need for the professional features.

I would go for the one with the lower VID anyways. The lower one might have a better chance of stability using lower voltages.

Ditto. I would love to have that case.
