Hello, a friend of mine wants to build an HTPC but doesn't want to get a GPU unless it is necessary. He want's to go with an AMD build to save some cash and not go too crazy. I'm a Network Admin and typically understand this stuff fairly well. But I haven't built a PC from scratch in about 7...

I know one thing this update has about made my laptop unusable twice. It keeps trying to install then fails and wants to reboot\ boot loop. I just system restore before the update. I need to see if there is a setting to turn off the automatic reboot \ install update feature. Being in the middle...

FWIW i've had my h50 for about 3 years now with no problems. I'd go h100 vs h50 these days though.

At first I hated win 8. But the more I use it the more i am beginning to like it. It does have some cool features.

Arg sooo tempting arg! I'm afraid if i buy it I will charge up the other parts to build a new media server that I've been wanting to build.

Saw this a few weeks ago. Pretty cool!

Um... Why buy out of date hardware ? Save for the 600 series of GPU's.

LOL!

This thread does not deliver! ;) Not bad man!

People buy desktops for themselves ? Build one and have it your way. Dell is no Burger King.

I live an hour west of KC in Topeka, KS. I have co-workers and friends that live in those areas and they said they having meetings at the local schools trying to get more people to sign up. I don't understand why more people are not signing up too. The Open Door area on the KS side is densely...

By far the coolest desks I've seen EVER!

BB was originally a music store. Sure they sell appliances but I've never bought any from the store. I typically have gone there to buy media, music, or electronics. They are handy to go to when i'm working on a person's old computer that needs a ram upgrade and want it back asap. Or if i need...

Oh wow! An A\D and DNS doesn't need much. I've been looking at getting a HP Proliant server lately. Newegg keeps having a sale on this i5 one with WHS for 399.00. It's very tempting to just buy it and throw VMware's ESXi on it. And to the other poster. Yes I've been thinking about getting a...

Great Job as Always! You amazed me with the L3P desk build but this... WOW!

Sounds like an awesome idea. That way when you spill your Coke on it you fry your power supply and possibly the laptop.

I liked XBMC when it was on the original Xbox. I haven't used it since.

I haven't had cable in almost 2 years. I ditched it for my antenna. I don't miss it. I use tehcake for my tv shows and I can watch espn on xbox live. I've been debating on apple tv and hacking it or building a htpc as well. I've never heard of the Crackle.com it looks legit! I tried out Hulu...

Ha i'm even signed up for this. We'll my old xbox was I think i updated my info to the new slim. I didn't hear a word.

I do already. I just want some more experience with server based os's.

Fair Enuff! I mean I don't intend to make it a SQL box or anything crazy like that. Just media hosting. Maybe some basic web hosting.

How well are these atom processors working for server roles? I've been wanting to bulid a server lately for learning purposes as well and media purposes.

IBM Media PC of some sorts running win 95 had a remote, zip drive ect Pentium 166 MMX I really don't remember much more about it other than I think my parents paid close to 5k for it.

8800 GT SLI Now 460SE

I don't forsee Win8 having very good sales. I've been saying its ME 2.0 since it came out.

Yes. There's ton's of other city's/townships within "KC" I don't know what he was trying to prove. :o

Both setups are very nice guys!

Pretty darn cool! I think i know what my next project is. Marcdaddy i love your setup! What exact Silverstone case model is that? Also what brand of tv stand is that I like it!

I haven't had any issues with my H50 but it was made by Asetek as mentioned above. ;)

So if i type in Sandusky.xxx will it take me to Penn State ?

They make these things call Maps at mall entrances that you look at then walk to the desired store. People have been doing it for years. Crazy right ?:eek: Disconnect a lil people.

I refuse to use twitter or myspace. I totally agree with the social media and kids thing though. I've ponder'ed from time to time removing myself from social media. Although i did just make a page for my side business of PC Repair / Virus Removal. I could always go oldschool and just make a...

I have that controller. It's not bad, I had one of my fan leads stop reporting though. You can still control it though. I need to buy another controller.

I thought mine got bad but wow! I have screens on the front of my rig but the intake for the corsair unit could use one. I try to blow mine out bi-monthly. Why spend all that money just to neglect it ? :confused:

I Lol'd!

Ahhh the good ol days. Don't forget Camelot Music. FYE is still kickin but they hardly have anything worth buying. I admit i can't remember the last cd i've bought since i got my Droid and can put upto 16gigs worth of music on it and plug it into my aftermarket cd player. Back to the...

I guess i'm just upset because Netflix's ablility to get new release's available to streaming. I can watch Aurthur w/ Russell Brand right now for 3.99 or wait a bazillion years on Netflix and maybe they will offer it for streaming. I mean ya your going to pay more with amazon, walmart, apple...

Interesting! I wouldn't use this either unless the movie is unavailable at redbox or its a new release. http://www.walmart.com/cp/1084447?povid=cat14503-env172199-module072611-lLinkMMVUDU Link for Walmart's streaming. Looks interesting to say the least.

I'm torn between cancelling and just keeping streaming. I just wish they'd get the newer movies on there quicker. They don't have near as much on the stream as they do for the rental.

Why can't we make our own missles and equipment in the good ol' U.S. of A ? Who care's if it cost more. We just print more money when we run out anyways... Stimulate our own economy vs the Chinese who fvck us every way they can.
