Happy b'day man, at least yours got noticed ;) edit: I am joking of course, I'm old enough that I don't mind not being reminded of the fact that I'm an old bastard.

The Prius doesn't cause more environmental damage than a Hummer. That's a misnomer, the manufacture of a Prius causes more environmental damage than the Hummer does during the lifetime of the Hummer's operation but notice that no mention is made of any of the damage to the environment caused by...

So, I take it that you've seen the light...especially after reading about the flow chamber and seeing the testing done with the Swiftech heatsink where he concludes that the higher the fin count, the higher the wind resistance.

I know I'm right. I'd hate taking your money...you probably work for the government so you need it worse than I do ;) The fact of the matter is when you stack thin plates in a high density it creates wind resistance and you have to have a higher velocity fan to overcome that resistance. This is...

There's a difference between the moving stator in a turbine and the fixed horizontal fins of a HSF. You might take exception with his statement but it is nonetheless true. The higher the fin count and the higher the fin density the lower the flow due to resistance to air flow. A moving stator...

Hey, a dress made from white wine that has to be kept wet? Put that on the right woman (Petra maybe) and I'm in! :D

I'm glad to be of service :)

Adding blocks with the same sized barbs has far less impact on your loop than adding blocks with smaller barbs. I fully grok why Rob didn't bother because realistically you won't see an increase in the ram's clocks by adding in the water cooling. It appeals to the silence freaks for obvious...

It looks to me like they used an old school Exos with native 1/4" tubing (I had one and recognize that blue tubing which is not used on the new version) which is designed for low flow. The Corsair setup uses a Liang DDC which is native to 3/8" and has much higher flow than that old Koolance has...

The reduction in flow is going to be horrendous. 1/4" is a little less than 1/2 the area as 3/8" so that's a huge decrease in flow arear. Add the thickness of all the fittings and you've got a major obstruction! Now, if OCZ wants these to be readily plumbed into a loop, they need to include a...

Use Norton Ghost or another drive image copying program and it'll work like a champ. Just make certain to use the USB drivers option with Ghost if that's the program that you settle on.

Let me know what they run, I'm kind of interested in doing it myself :) I'm glad you like yours, I love mine to death.

I've got to ask...who is he?

The game is running the resolution at a rate (whether it's the resolution or refresh rate, I dunno) that your monitor doesn't support. You need to hook it up to another monitor and set the resolution to the rate your monitor supports then hook your LCD up and gogo GTA.

Running two in series would be enough though.

Well, my mobo for some odd ass reason has decided to not release the power on signal to my PSU, now to shut down it'll do the "Windblows is shutting down" screen then BSOD and I have to shut the PSU off to kill it. Reboots are no problem since the PSU never powers off but shutdown is totally...

Generally I'd say no and you'd kick yourself if you wiped and reloaded to see that it was still happening.

Sounds like a motherboard problem.

Glad to hear that you got your data saved. The Vantec USB to SATA/IDE converter has become a trusted and necessary piece of test equipment in my arsenal. I think it'll do the same in yours.

So, I'm alone then...bummer, I was hoping for company ;)
