Thanks Rob! My first impression is that there's a lot of potential with Google+ if only because people like fresh starts and at least the illusion of control over their public persona. It'll be interesting to see how quickly they can roll out the service to a wider availability, this will be...

Invite me.

O.K. I'm still a bit upset about Future Shop even being mentioned here, but time for honest disclosure: With the configuration above, you're giving up some processing power at stock speeds and 2 GB of RAM. I mention this because disclosure is important, it's all in what they don't tell you...

I refuse to let anyone on a computer forum buy one from Future Shop. I'm warning you, I'm fairly passionate about this, and anyone who disagrees with me is an enemy. Corsair TX650 V2 650W ATX 12V Single Rail 53A 24PIN ATX Power Supply Active PFC 80PLUS Bronze $84.99 Coolermaster CM 690...

Those OC results are surprising, but in fairness the review appeared in March 2009, well before either thread you linked to. If Rob still has the board I hope he can flash the BIOS and try a suicide OC run! :D

Nice work there, glamourous professional hardware reviewer! Even when you're carousing in Taiwan, Frankfurt and Vegas, I know hardware will be foremost. When they start sending petite Asian soap and scrub twins up to your suite, remember the little people! :D About the review: I'm sorta...

I like working on old machines because it's every bit as much challenge getting the most performance out of them as the latest, most powerful ones. There has to be a cut off point though, and sure, when the whole shebang is worth less than $100-$200 bucks...

That's what the people who say stuff are saying. Not sure why all the secrecy and changing stories, the idea for a 240mm closed loop was obvious since the H50 came out and is starting to lose its excitement.

Project cancelled, see OP for details and links.

I'm loyal to XFX but MSI Graphics gets you into their OC event: http://www.3dmark.com/competitions/LOC2011/

Somehow missed this first time around, but it's just as awesome 6 months later. More kudos to corporate angels Crucial, Thermaltake, Western Digital, and OCZ and special thanks to Tech-Daddy for taking the time to make us all look good!

Try to gently explain that the system you built is what people in the know are building today (well, with dual 6850's :D), then build him a system that's 15% more powerful for 3X the price and sell the one you built for him to a non-idiot. Sometimes nothing can be done, but the thread title is...

Asetek Announces Availability and Preorder Dates for 240mm Super Cooler *cancelled* AFAIK this will be the largest surface area rad on a commercially available closed loop cooler. Dying to see a review of this...

Well you have to choose USPS in the shipping and keep orders (excl. shipping) under $20 to be sure. USPS goes to Canada Post and they won't tack on ridiculous charges at the border. Good rule for any cross-border online shopping is to only ship with USPS. If there's no alternative, walk away...

+1 for monoprice.com, only place I've bought any cables in over 3 years.

If I had known there wasn't going to be a Rhino candidate on my ballot I would have coughed up the $1000 and ran. Actually I should have run for the NDP, looks like they could have elected a dead squirrel in Quebec. "You have nothing to lose but your crayons!"

Ni-ice. Lamborghinis are tiny inside, but I don't completely dislike the interior. It says "bare essentials".

I'm pretty much eunoia, eunoia666 or pastorofmuppets everywhere.

LOL, first thought that went through my mind as well. What will the naysayers chime in with this time? Portal 2 only gets 5/10 stars because the first one was way better, i.e. free. :D
