CIPWTTKT&GC v0X12 (v18): Makol can't Computer Very Good - Hardware & Software

No.

Why corsair? Intel is far better in reliability.

[QUOTE=MC3craze;35304568]Why corsair? Intel is far better in reliability.[/QUOTE] Because free.

[QUOTE=Makol;35304578]Because free.[/QUOTE] I wouldn't install anything important on it.

I already have one an it's perfectly fine. [editline]26th March 2012[/editline] don't be a butt

[QUOTE=wingless;35304290]I honestly do not like Android for tablets. Every time I go to use it, I just keep thinking how I could manage the extra space better with Windows and how I could do this and this so much better with Windows. Hell, apart from Windows 8, I'm corrupted. I prefer Windows Phone 7 to every other Mobile OS and Windows to any other OS (Except Server, HP-UX forever).[/QUOTE] [IMG]http://puu.sh/murK[/IMG] I actually really like Holo, its clean, tidy and neutral.

That's a long breakup period. My condolences.

[QUOTE=Makol;35304502][B]I just told friend who was giving me one, maybe two, GTX 680s, to just give me one GTX 680 with 4gb of memory instead.[/B] He said I have to wait until the end of June but I am ok with that. [editline]26th March 2012[/editline] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/zbKix.jpg[/IMG] eeeeeeeeee[/QUOTE] Where can I get awesome friends like that?

Idk. I've known him for a few years and he literally gives parts away. Back in the 5000 series he ordered a few 5870s and two 5970s, he didn't like them and gave them away or sold them for half price on ebay. Knowing him he'll just make me pay half the retail price and shipping.

[QUOTE=Protocol7;35304666]That's a long breakup period. My condolences.[/QUOTE] Its 2 weeks actually, its because it was taken in week view :p [editline]26th March 2012[/editline] Oh yeah, my tablet has a PCIe slot inside, SSD yay or nay?

[QUOTE=inconspicious;35304644][t]http://puu.sh/murK[/t] I actually really like Holo, its clean, tidy and neutral.[/QUOTE] I also love the look of the ASUS apps [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8403469/Screenshot_2012-03-26-14-56-23.png[/img] Also funnily enough the Transformer supports many shortcuts, even Alt+Tab :v:

By day end I managed to finish five of [url=http://www.raptorphotonics.com/product/hawk-analogue-5]these[/url], managed to finish heat testing two at -40c and 70c, no problems so far. Planning on finishing testing, then constructing a few of [url=http://www.raptorphotonics.com/product/hawk-digital-23]these[/url] tommorow, gotta improve on my UT2K4 skills, tho :zoid: Oh, and I was put in charge of the storage room for a few hours today, there is £4m worth of sensor equipment in there, scary :v:

Whoops, I closed the lid too hard and it's now rebooting. [I]Makol, it's your fault[/I]

Speaking of 680s, is there any data on the SLI scaling?

I've just got a Xoom. It's a tough little bugger. It's hefty but it's got some serious metal housing its innards, so I use it as a weapon once in awhile. Most people run when they see the thing being tossed their way.

Still, it works!

I love the big "Made in China" sticker. Not like mine isn't too, but it's funny.

I really can't fault the hardware though, 1.2Ghz dual core T20 processor.

Yeah, the backplate is like 1mm thick aluminum. Doesn't sound like a lot but it hasn't shown any signs of dents, scratches, or the works.

built my new pc today (which was also my first build), went actually pretty well. haven't got any progress shots but took a few as things were installed [img]http://www.leet.cc/203.png[/img] [img]http://www.leet.cc/252.png[/img] [img]http://www.leet.cc/251.png[/img] cable management as you probably guessed isn't done, but it boots up fine! installing windows tomorrow so i'll sort the cables out, but yeah it was easier than i expected

Nice job with the photos as well. I hate seeing people take pictures of their computers in pitch-black basements.

[QUOTE=MC3craze;35304940]Speaking of 680s, is there any data on the SLI scaling?[/QUOTE] Keep in mind, the SLI numbers are also from like 3 day old drivers. And already they are impressive.

As soon as I get paid I'm ordering one (maybe two.)

Well I just confirmed all the noise from my PC was the rear exhaust fan. Just put in the GELID fan and it's much much quieter. All I can hear are my GPU fans which aren't very loud at idle. Projects for tomorrow is to find out what's making my AMD rig (brother's PC) so fucking loud and put Killowatt's rig together. My brother's PC sounds like a fucking jet engine. I can hear it in every room of the house when it's idle, at load it's even worse.
