    What DPI do you run your mouse for everyday usage?

    1080p - 1200 DPI, anything over 2500+ on the same resolution is really only useful for gaming. I drop the DPI down a lot (400-600) when using Photoshop or something. faster than changing Window's sensitivity!

    Z10PE-D8 woes

    whoops! thanks, Raja. i'm using CT16G4RFD4213 for memory, no mixed kits. it worked before as well on the last board i had before i RMA'd it. i have only been testing with 1 cpu (E5-2620v3) and 1 stick of memory for the sake of keeping things simple. using a spare 660gtx for now for vga. (i've...

    Z10PE-D8 woes

    i've tried watching for it, but when it power cycles it changes very quickly. while booting, it sits at 04 for a few seconds, then 19, i can see it flash into something in the 20s then it shuts off and starts back up, repeating the previous action edit 1/21: i've also run prime95 and memtest...

    All-In-One: XenServer 6.2 vs. ESXi 5.5

    in regards to 'repairing the SR', you're looking for the 'xe pbd-plug` command. as far as shutdown goes, this can be done with rc.d. edit:: also, i believe you can prioritize vm startup using vApp tags or start sequence in boot options in the VM properties menu in XenCenter.

    Samsung 830, B versus D model

    yes sir it is a good deal and M4s have been some of the most reliable SSDs on the market. i just bought a bunch of 830s, but I have used several M4s in the past. whichever you decide to go with you will not be disappointed.

    Raid 0 SSD vs single SSD for Battlefield 3 or other games?

    honestly bf3 doesn't benefit as much as you think from SSDs. the majority of the time spent loading the level is actually stuff being streamed down from the server. having it on an SSD will speed it up, but there is a limit to how much it will help due to how the game is just designed.

    [H]ot Newegg Samsung 830 128GB $119.99 shipped

    had a $10 gift code to newegg for a while now, picked up the samsung for $109. was going to get another M4, but figured i'll give samsung a try this time. samsung's 830s have had a pretty good track record in terms of reliability, figured i'd give them a shot this time since the price was right.

    How to make 4 drives appear as one?

    check to see if your motherboard has an on board raid controller. a lot do these days. you can usually check by reading the manual or checking in the bios. or you could always do it from within windows i suppose.

    first thing i did was rip out the 3x80mm fans and drop in some panaflos. shame you have to get rid of it, it's not a bad case :p only problem for me so far is i need to dremel out a slot in the airduct for my power cables since they come in at an awkward angle (SSI CEB board). but that will only...

    What is the best data recovery place?

    if you can find anybody who has an AccessData workstation, they might be able to help you out.. as far as blind recoveries go you could always use photorec or something. it's just going to be really messy if you go that route

    SSD noob,need help choosing a drive

    +1 to M4.. i have 3 of them, all from different batches updated to 0009 firmware. not a single issue so far. crucial has also been improving performance by quite a bit in their latest firmware revisions (0002 -> 0009 boosting by 20%~ i believe), could it get even better? time will tell..

    tired of this, give me a real solution [wireless]

    i've already looked at the possibilty of running a cable, unfortunately the way the house is built it would be pretty damn difficult. :( what is the throughput of powerline networking these days? and any suggested equipment? the idea has popped into my mind, but i know nothing about it.

    okay, here is my problem. my cable feed + modem is downstairs, i live upstairs in my house. i had a router downstairs and was doing a plain old 802.11g bridge into a switch upstairs. i was using ubiquiti hardware for that, and it was pretty reliable (mostly). i eventually upgraded everything...

    Home Networking Options

    last i checked a 100ft cat6 cable was only like $2-3 more expensive than a cat5e cable. a 1000ft spool of cat6 is only $110 at monoprice. 1000ft spool of cat5e is $80~. honestly, i would spend the extra money and just go with cat6. even if you won't utilize it now, you won't have to upgrade for...

    Home Networking Options

    i'd like to see you push 10gig over cat5e. you should run cat6 instead of cat5e. the price of cat6 has really come down (esp if you buy on monoprice, spool prices are stupid cheap) to the point where it makes no sense to not run cat6.
