A+++ thread. Would read again.

Been watching this develop all day... hilarious twists when the DB changes his twitter handle to avoid the raging masses, and some kid scoops it up for the lulz, as it were. Best part: the old twitter account is still scrolling in realtime on the Ocean Mktg blog, which of course has started...

Best use of combat pay I've seen in awhile. Get some!

Dependable components, reliable company. Always wanted a Gigabyte board but never [H]ad the opportunity. Thanks!

Somebody needs to verify that the Corsair HS1 Gaming Headset will work/play in Crysis during a rainstorm, at night, in North Carolina, with a kid crying in the other room. That Somebody is me.

yep u are right. Its a 64. The XP was in a previous rig. Disregard :D

Still running an Athalon XP on an AV8 socket939 board, frankenstein rig as my part-time file server. That chip is still rock-stable at stock speeds, and well worth the double* OEM pricetag. * Burned up the first one I bought within hours of purchase, and it is a rearview mirror/keychain...

Very nice, very clean. Insane Bonus points for the 25mm round.

I really think Haste deserves a special forum title for this one, like "Masterbaker" or somethin... Always a good laugh when I visit this thread and see who has recently whipped up a batch of toasty oven pcb goodness. Also, post up your oven specs, guys, seriously (and if ur oven can play...

I felt a great disturbance in XBOX Live, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

Skynet.

Truth. ...From someone who has earned your right to express your opinions.

There's more OPSEC violation on Facebook today than I ever had on my haji flash drive in '04.

"Especially in higher tiers a lot of the cars are behaving like fork lifts. This is completely unrealistic..." haha u got NOS in that jdm forklift? EA has a long history of poor performance.

You are correct, sir. http://licgweb.doacs.state.fl.us/weapons/index.html

It's clear to me from the tape that the security guard was taking a dump when this robbery occurred.

<cackle> :p

Once a few years ago I went into a RadioShack to find a cellphone adapter I could order online for $7 shipped... didnt want to wait 10 days for shipping because the battery was dying. The kid behind the counter tried to sell me his own personal used phone charger (same phone as mine) for $20...

On 02-22-09 a District 2 patrol unit recovered a Mossburg 12-gauge shotgun concealed within a Super Soaker (water gun). The water gun was taken apart and altered allowing the shotgun to be encased within the water gun, and to remain fully functional.

Steve, I wonder if your question would get more definitive answers if people would identify their region or area when responding to this thread. i.e. "I live in eastern Michigan and have only had one cracked disc in my last 50+ Netflix BR rentals." Personally, I only do DVD's and from...

Guys, can you please start posting specs on your ovens? I'm not sure if my current machine will bake Crysis... Also, if I pop my old stupid compaq desktop from 2001 in there at 385f, will it stop being a piece of sh*t after 10 minutes? Thanks. (Kudos to the OP for a great 1st hand...

Can this be true? http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/news/2009/04/theyre-gone-after-outcry-time-warner-uncaps-the-tubes.ars Looks like we won, for now... TWC must have heard from many other customers like me.

Well, i'm scheduled to be hit with TWC's practice money grab in NC this summer, so i decided to conduct a Customer Service experiment: On Fri, Apr 3, 2009 at 2:17 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: So i said:

Sorry for the necropost, guys. Today's news item gave me a bit of nostalgia... :)

Just installed my Kuma with stock HSF on a M4A78 Pro and getting 49c - 51c at idle in BIOS. It's been 5 years since my last build (A64 3500+ on an AV8), so there's a chance I've installed the heatsink wrong. Gonna reapply AS5 and try again. Any advice in the meantime? Edit: Reinstalled stock...

That thing is killer! Great job. :D :D :D

500+ views lawl. 1. Wasn't drunk. 2. Live 3 min. walk away. 3. Pure comedic value. (I run AMD but that is irrelevant) 4. It's not about attention, its about putting a smile on YOUR face. Good day. /resume hyperthread'n :)

The incisive "Mal debrief" by Squire reminded me of something I read earlier in the year... http://www.filerush.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=941&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

Wasn't gonna post until I saw XOR's little cutie... I'm 28 with a 2yr old daughter and she loves to watch me play Prince of Persia, DC, BF:V, whatever. Only recently she has started to get very concerned each time I "die" (more often than I should :rolleyes: ), so I may have to curb her...

1. Once upon a time Tom's Hardware was a legit source of information on building myself a computer for at least $1500 less than retail so my wife would'nt get all mad and stop cooking for me and stuff. Then Tom went down the road to stupidville. Now, today, in my opinion HardOCP is perhaps the...

cornelious0_0 Thanks for taking the time to answer, you have set my mind at ease... just in time for HL2 ;)

So this thread re: 6800 series GPU temps says I'm ok... Are they full of tripe? http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/archive/index.php/t-31346.html I would trust you guys more than them.

I found the flash video on Zalman's website to be quite helpful in installing mine. I used the AV8 backplate from Abit, only odd thing was I had to flip it upside down to get the 'nipples' (only one set, retail) to screw in securely. May have to remove and reinstall mine today tho, as I am...

Guys, Thanks for this thread, and keep up the good info; my question: What is a good/standard operating temp for my Gainward GeForce 6800 (vanilla, non-GT/Ultra ...no OC)? I am running about 66c to 71c in CS:S max settings with stock cooling (replaced the white goop with AS5 and saw a 4c...
