    Android Car Audio help

    I recently switched from an iPhone 5 to a Note 4. Apple products worked great with my Kenwood receiver but it only supports Android phones that support mass storage mode. Since the Note 4 does not support this mode I cannot get it to integrate with my receiver built in 2010. I tried using the...

    Who has the best camera?

    My wife and I are moving the family's fleet of phones and tables away from Apple this year, and all that is left is the phones. I know the 6 launch is next week, but which phone in your opinion has the best camera? My wife cares nothing of OS just the best camera. Right now she has her...

    Shutting down for a while.

    I've been making 140 to 190k a week for a number of years for the H folding team, but due to about 4 years of financial hardship I need to start shutting down PCs when not in use. Cutting them off will save me $20 to $30 a month. I know that EVGA is once again creeping up on us but I need to...

    GPU just took a dump. Where is the folding value at right now?

    I had a 660 ti for gaming and folding. It decided that it had enough folding the other night. What are the strongest performers in the $200 to $300 range? I may be able to swing a little more but I don't know yet.

    Asus P8Z77-I Delux Cooling issues

    I have a P8Z77-I mobo in a computer I just built for my wife. I have been having issues with the processor running real hot. Due to the VRM riser on the side edge of the board I had issues getting various heatsinks to mount to this thing. Many of them bump this little riser board and make it...

    FaH failed units.

    Months agao I had to shut down my GPU folding because of failed units. I have been looking around (not that hard just in Stanford's Folding Forums,) and none of what I have found has fixed my issues. No matter what I do the unit always comes back failed. I am folding with a 560. If anyone...

    Korean 27" IPS ebay monitor. Any reviews out there?

    I'm looking for a new display. Right now I have a nice 22" display but I just want to go bigger. There are a couple options out there but not many for some reason everything is made at 1080p. The 30" screens are just too much money for me, and the 27" HP IPS is compelling but still almost...

    MPT to GUID conversion question.

    I have a UFEI bios, and Win 7 64bit, but I cloned a drive with MPT so I can't get more than 2T out of my new drive. Is there an easy solution to this? Or do I need to image the drive and convert the drive to GUID (which I don't want to do unless I have to)?

    Seagate GoFlex 3T

    I bought a couple Seagate Goflex Home 3T USB 3.0 drives at Costco for $150 (well actually I got the first one for $130 before the flooding) for my NAS. My network wasn't fast enough to even get full performance out of even one and I don't need 3T for my BluRay rips. Anway to make a long story...

    Vitrual Box questions.

    I currently fold with a 2500k and a 560ti. From what I understand Linux gives a few extra points. So would it do me any good to set up a Virtual Box and get it folding? Or would the OS on OS action slow things down too much? If this is a viable option how much ram should I give the VB? I...

    HD Bitrate questions.

    I have a router with a built in FTP/Media server. It works ok. The bandwidth that it puts out is pretty piss poor, but for what is just an added feature it works for me most of the time. Anyway, I get about 2 to 3 MB/sec (bytes not bits) speed from it depending on device. Is this enough to...

    FaH radeon 7000 series PPD?

    Ok I know they just hit Newegg today, but anyone have the PPD for these? I have a 560 ti but I would hate to put down $550 to $570 and not get a healthy PPD increase.

    Reduction in PPD?

    Anyone else seen a reduction in PPD lately. I run a SMP client, a GPU clinet, and a PS3 and normally I pull 200k a week. But last two weeks I have been in steady decline. I am down to about 160k for last week and if this week keeps up I will only hit 120k for the week.

    SMP project 11020 slow everywhere else?

    This project is royaly screwing my ppd. Frames are taking a little over 30 min. Usually my SMP client averages 13K to 17K ppd. Right now I'm getting an estimated 475ppd from that clinet. I am running a i5 2500K @ 4.5Ghz with 16GB ram. I am running a GPU client with an 560ti but that...

    Bad Luck

    I recently added a 560 ti and man have I had a streak of bad luck. First I keep getting bad SMP units, I've gotten 4 this week while at work so all day long until I get home my PPD has tanked. After that the stupid windows updates this week have caused my comp to reboot in the middle of the...

    Happy Father's Day for me.

    First year with a child. Had some extra coin and decided to treat myself to a 560 TI that I found on Newegg with a $40 mir. Didn't really need a new card, my 4890 still plays stuff just fine, but I wanted some more PPD and this should tide me over until die shrinks happen and I can get an Ivy...

    i5 2500k ppd?

    I just put down for a new mobo and a 2500k. I'm hoping for 5Ghz but if I only get 4.5 I won't cry a bit. I only got the 2500k cause I want to wait for Ivy Bridge before buying a i7. This is my gaming rig. Which mostly gets use on the weekends, cause I work 50 hours a week. What are my...

    PS3 folding performance disapointing.

    I got a PS3 and I must say the amount of points you get out of it is a disapointment. I figured that between the graphics chip and the Cell there would be some good performance there. I didn't buy it to fold so it isn't like a wash or anything.

    Stability issues, help if you can.

    Normally if I start having issues like what I'm having now I would just say "oh well upgrade time." However, I'm on a limited budget (unemployed, and that runs out soon.) So I'm just asking some questions here to limit the financial damage. Here is the system: C2Q E8300 @ 2.7G 4GB ram...

    Power DVD What a POS

    I got Power DVD free with my BD player and I must say what a big piece of ass it was. The version they gave me was 8. It wouldn't play most movies unless run in admin mode which is a horrible PITA when you are controlling the HTPC over wifi and and of the admin prompts lock out Mobile Mouse...

    Time to build a HTPC / Foling rig for the living room.

    I have been wanting a blue-ray player for a little while. I also wanted to get into the top 500 around here. So my plan was to make a HTPC / Folder and a File Server / Folder. Due to the fact that I would like to wait for WHS v2 to come out the HTPC had to come first. I went to a small local...

    GTX 460 questions. Please share your general knowlege, FAH and game related.

    Here I have a C2D rig here that I have been running for years, it has a radeon 4890 in it. I have a mild overclock on the GPU nothing major. From what I have been looking at in terms of games the GTX 460 768MB is about even with or possible 5% faster. Now with FAH this is a no brainer the 460...
