[url]http://goo.gl/XqSZ3[/url][/QUOTE]
yeah, pretty good
motherboard's a bit shit though, pointless having a 2500K when you can't overclock
if you take that into account and get an i5 2400 build instead, it might be cheaper
[QUOTE=Big Ben;32413993]Shit, I forgot to mention, it'll be in there for 2 hours. Will it still be okay?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, but anything more than 2 and you'll come back to a puddle!

Try pinging the website in command prompt
If it responds get the ip which would be something like this
This format

Then enter that number into your browser

Best mouse for gaming?
Wireless isn't necessary or really even wanted, USB is fine.
I want something where the buttons will actually still work after a few years, the ones on my current mouse are getting spongy and won't always register properly.
No stupid fucking lights either.

I'd recommend the [URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826104318&Tpk=Logitech G500"]Logitech G500[/URL]. It's the mouse I use. It's a laser mouse, so it doesn't spazz out if you move it too quickly like optical mice always seem to do. It allows you to adjust its DPI setting on the fly between up to 5 different settings and has a little weight cartridge and little weights that you can insert into the underside of the mouse if you wish to do so.
The only real complaints I've seen is that the paint starts to wear a bit after a while.

Basically, anything by Logitech. I have an MX518. Great buy.

it's very cheap and has "Lifetime Limited Warranty" so you can probably get it returned if it dies
And why isn't my second 6870 showing up?

Anyone know why I can't move a 6.11 mkv file from my PC to a 320gb portable HDD through USB 2.0?

Hopefully that combo is still good this Saturday

Shit I was just reading those reviews and they dont too promising on that motherboard
consumer reviews are made by idiots, and in general people will loudly complain but only praise silently
asus is one of the top mobo manufacturers, people just expect products to be perfect with a 0% failure rate then get angry when theirs is DoA instead of just RMAing
the combo should still be there, it's been around ages
[QUOTE=Raijin;32423641]Anyone know why I can't move a 6.11 mkv file from my PC to a 320gb portable HDD through USB 2.0?[/QUOTE]Fat32 doesn't allow for files larger then 4GB in size. Format it to NTFS or zip the file into 2 or more parts lwss than 4 GB each.
[editline]22nd September 2011[/editline]
note: some devices (TV, consoles maybe) won't read NTFS. If it's just for PC use, NTFS is the way to go. Macs can't write to NTFS by default though.
