Bit late to the water cooling discussion. But at work we have the coolest liquid cooling system for our newest HPC system. Each motherboard is encased in a watertight tank and each tank is connected to the next one up in the rack. A non conductive fluid is pumped in at the top of the rack and taken off at the bottom and cooled completely passively in a standard radiator (Literally just a central heating radiator like in your house) The only power required for cooling is for the pump, one radiator cools 2 full 8ft racks.
Its pretty impressive how much power is saved just by having no fans, and it means the system can be at the back of an office as its completely silent - as well as actually heating the room for free in winter.

Check if it's a DNS type of blocking by seeing if you can use the Google DNS.
Just curious but what's the point of a switch when it can't get me internet access.
From Modem>Router>Switch>PC.

A switch is basically for connecting computers together in a LAN, if you only need to hook up one computer a dedicated switch isn't necessary, but you need one in any reasonably sized network

I already use Google DNS.
[QUOTE=Skanic;44962088]Just curious but what's the point of a switch when it can't get me internet access.
From Modem>Router>Switch>PC.[/QUOTE]Routers vs switches:
Switches are for connecting devices together on the network like routers, PCs, other switches and any other network devices. Its sole purpose really is to direct network traffic to its appropriate physical destination, as they only pay attention to MAC addresses.
Routers are for connecting actual networks together (ie. your LAN to your ISP's network) and are intelligent enough to perform other activities like firewalling and NAT, but they aren't really concerned where the traffic has to go once it reaches the correct network, which is the switch's job. The router just tells the switch to deliver it to a certain MAC address and switches actually have their own protocols to figure out what switch that MAC is on.
Most consumer grade wireless routers are actually a router, switch and wireless AP combo in one package. This also becomes more muddled when talking about enterprise equipment as enterprise switches can actually be pretty advanced. But that's the gist of it.

Use Tor.
Played some watch_dogs.
I don't know what people see in it.
The car handling feels like your car is butter with a v8 engine on a plate of ice.
And the movements of the player feel like a sloth that has smoked too much weed.

Whenever I am driving, I am constantly crashing into everything and kill everyone. I'm putting fucking hitler to shame.

When I complained about the player movement in the Watch_Dogs thread they said it was perfectly fine and it was probably my computers performance that was causing it. (It wasn't)
So I've been doing some of my studies on the Vaio PCG-709k, and so far if I were to be in 2004-2005ish at the age of 18 then I obviously don't see the point of upgrading, really.
I'm not gonna stick with it though, if it were the same to this day, boy will that machine be spiced up to hell and back.
I feel older than I really am just saying this, but you get the point, right?

Do you guys know those moments when you just sit in front of your computer and have no idea what to do, bored with everything it can offer, but also not willing to stand up to do something different?
I'm havin' that right now and it's really pissing me off.
Suggest shit to do pls.

Also having that problem. Found myself opening games or websites and closing them after minutes.
Then that question "what am I doing with my life" keeps floating around in my head and I get real depressed. :c
whenever I have those moments, I just start up Titanfall and have some mindless fun

you're exaggerating the driving there, right? there's not much weight behind driving in the game, nor is it realistic, but it isn't that bad? :v:
I'm actually serious. I don't know how it's with a Controller, but with KB and Mouse it's pretty hard and sluggish.
I might try to plug in the Xbox Controller if it's supported, and see if it works better with it.
that reminds me of handling in ps2 era driving games
aka fucking terrible
well idk i guess the fact that i'd reload the save whenever i'd hurt a civilian helped me drive better
