I just purchased an Ergochair 2 and the seat height doesn't get low enough for me. I wish I could make it an inch or two lower. Do you think piston replacement would allow it to sit lower than the one the chair comes with?

Is there a place I can find the update notes? At work, don't wanna have to watch the whole video to get the gist of it.

So, they put a massive notch on it and still have a thick bezel at the bottom. Why have a notch if you're still going to have fairly thick bezels? Kinda defeats the purpose. Bad design.

I wonder if Amazon is just doing this to see what the reaction is, or just to draw attention?

I have no fucking clue man. If you look up 'authentic' on thesaurus.com the first synonym listed is 'accurate.' Do they really think there is a meaningful difference by using that terminology? Even legally?

Email is still the best form of communication for anything "official" or anything that is very wordy. However it is cumbersome for having a conversation. Many companies such as the one I work for use an internal instant messaging service such as XMPP/Jabber for quick correspondence.

I'd say the internet resembles an imperfect wire-frame sphere. Considering it is physically made from a series of wires, cables, etc. that wrap around the entire planet.

David Coverdale. Is that you?

$100-200 range. Just the minimum to do 1080p BF4 at High/Ultra settings.

[H]owdy [H]ard ones, I am blessed enough to have a job where I can do quite a bit of gaming in the office with my co-workers, especially over long weekend shifts. Since someone always needs to be here manning the data center it's sort of a 24/7 lan-party, if there isn't work to be done...

This looks like it's the SR-71 which is on display near my house at the Udvar Hazy center... http://airandspace.si.edu/visit/udvar-hazy-center/

Greatly reminds me of UT2003/2004... However, I could always go back and play those games... What does this have that those games don't have besides moderatelyimproved graphics?

Why does new gameplay footage always have to be uploaded in such awfully compressed quality?

Does anyone know of a way to see video memory usage by process?

You're fired if you do that in my company.

Did some looking, that seems like a promising solution... However, how do you connect to the sensortag from a PC? Do you use any old USB 4.0 LE adapter? What about software? How easy will it be to monitor/log the information?

Does anyone know of a cheap solution to ambient air temperature monitoring/logging? I'm looking for a device with a PC interface (may external LCD as well) which can accept multiple sensor probes to monitor ambient indoor room temperature, as well as outdoor temperature. I'd like to be able...

Hahaha, this looks ridiculously cool. It's like the parts are just bursting out of the tiny chassis. Anyone have examples of other mods like this?

Yeah, XBMC is great, however I'm building this for my roommate. I don't think it will work for him, however I'll have him check it out.

So you think I'll need a discrete graphics card for this thing? How far could I get just using the onboard?

How do I delete this? haha.

I've aquired a Supermicro X7SPA-H based system which has an integrated Intel Atom D510 and 2GB of DDR2 667. What is the extent of the performance for this thing? Could I build a simple HTPC with it? I'm trying to build one for my roommate to play movies through VLC, watch netflix, possibly...

You seriously need to turn that "Oreck XL airfilter thing" into a badass retro HTPC case mod.

No, the "Capty" will not be too happy about that. Darn right ashamed. In fact, you're fired from the team.

I'm getting really excited about this game too... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DON'T BE CONSOLIZED!!!!!!!!!!!

Good suggestions. Although I've had several SLI and crossfire systems over past generations, I've always been apprehensive before purchasing; especially with more than just two cards. Since I'm building this system for a friend I'm even more apprehensive about any issues. I want everything...

Thank you for the suggestions. Definitely going to stay in the wait and see mode.

I'm building a new system for a friend and we've budgeted roughly $700-$800 to spend on graphics cards. We're looking for the most performance and longevity for the money, he wants this system to last him at least a few years. He wants to be able to run games at max right now, but understands...

Definitely a good suggestion. Wondering if I can find one cheaper than $400 though...

[H]ello [H]ard|onites, I am planning on building a NAS/Home File server. I will be building it out of many salvaged parts. One thing I need is a chassis (tower or rackmount, doesn't matter) that can fit an Extended ATX dual-socket server motherboard such as a SuperMicro X7DBN or X8DTI-F...

Do want!

Reference cards typically use a blower/centrifugal fan that intakes air from inside the chassis, pushes it over the GPU heat-sink and then exhausts it out the back of the chassis. However, it looks like the reference GTX 460 used a common axial fan mounted in the middle of the heat-sink...

I noticed the most similar card they still have on newegg is a newer version than the three cards I've dealt with. A few of the specs are different, such as a higher overclock, 192bit memory interface, etc. Although, it looks like it still has the same shitastical heat-sink-fan setup...

In my opinion they should have used fans able to survive however many RPMs 100% is, I don't really think it's asking for much. For example, standard run of the mill 80mm chassis fans are inexpensive, and usually last quite a long time. I'm not saying they should've specifically used 80mm...

Yep, I've already flashed that BIOS on all three cards I've had. That's actually something I did on the first card after having stability issues, but the artifacts/BSODs persisted. The card was just a dud so I eventually RMA'd it. The other two cards didn't have such severe stability...

I'll take your word for it if I end up buying another AMD/ATi card, however it seems Kepler is king right now...

Good point about the temperatures, however the temps weren't bad once I "fixed" the heat-sinks/fan/thermal compound. My biggest complaint of these cards is the failure rate, all three cards had the fans die, two had stability issues. The cooling solution was just complete garbage among other...

I understand that this is a pretty subjective/opinionated query... I'm wondering what you guys think; which company makes graphics cards that are the most stable, highest build quality, properly cooled, no gimmicks, etc.? I'm not exactly looking for a specific card, just who makes the...

I really prefer if all data storage is sold/reported properly in binary format, even if it means HDDs will cost slightly more. I bet any manufacturer who started selling drives with actual binary capacities would start to see more enthusiast sales of those drives; of course to the mainstream it...
