I just went to update my text document keeping track of money towards my new rig. I looked in my wallet and discovered four dollars. I had more than 100 dollars in there. My wallet's been in my room since my birthday in january. What the fuck. I was just getting happy i was within double digits of my goal(~$70)and now I need $176. I'm gonna fucking lose it. :saddowns:

So I finally got around to grabbing an old machine from our garbage pile. It's a GX270. I have a spare adaptec 4 port SATA card in there with four 2.5" drives wired up, then I have a 250gb and a 10gb drive on the IDE. I'd run another two 40gb's on the other IDE channel but it wouldn't show up for some reason. I just need to install Windows 7 and get flexraid on here to test it.

Coke Zero is just less shit than diet coke.
[QUOTE=Brt5470;36331616] lol no. Coke Zero is just less shit than diet coke.[/QUOTE] Original and Zero taste exactly the same to me, but diet has an awful after taste.
So, now that there's the CTRL key problem my computer wants to put [B]¨[/B] character when I start to type. I don't know if I'm accidentally pressing that key, though. It's so close to Enter.
So I'm getting a 256gb M4 (or the 128gb version if the 15+ in stock suddenly vanish next week) for some non-Steam games like BF3, D3, WoW, etc. but I also want to get a another ssd for a boot drive and for all my music. What would be a good cheap ssd to get?

shit, found it.

[QUOTE=FlubberNugget;36332830]Force series III 60GB perhaps?

Plus I already have two 120gb Force GTs in my laptop, Corsair makes good stuff.

Had an arguement with a coworker about ATI vs Nvidia. He told me that the latest ATI cards have higher benchmarks than the latest Nvidia cards. [img]http://puu.sh/AZuE[/img] sure they do... [editline]15th June 2012[/editline] another bit of content, other coworker says that his 550ti runs everything that he throws at it at ultra. his screen res is 1024x768
Decided on what I want for a graduation present. [url=http://elitekeyboards.com/products.php?sub=leopold,tenkeyless&pid=fc200rcawn]This[/url] and some AV-30/40's.
Two XFX 6870s. Both are three months old. I have all the original packaging and whatnots. Both for $190, free shipping if within the US, or separate at $100 each. Save $10 with the combo~ PM me if interested.

If you have the PCIe connectors, yeah probably

I don't need to sell them right away. I'm just putting them out there.
[QUOTE=TonyTheBean;36333127]another bit of content, other coworker says that his 550ti runs everything that he throws at it at ultra. his screen res is 1024x768[/QUOTE] So I guess he's an idiot for using an old screen? I'm not sure I see the problem.
[QUOTE=Makol;36334380]I don't need to sell them right away. I'm just putting them out there.[/QUOTE] Well if i happen to sell my old laptop in the next week i'll buy them (or one) off of you.
okee dokey
Fuck yes! Newegg stocks Bitfenix cases now!

[QUOTE=HolyCrapAWalrus;36334547]Fuck yes! Newegg stocks Bitfenix cases now![/QUOTE] i just bought a fucking case three days ago :saddowns:
[QUOTE=HolyCrapAWalrus;36334547]Fuck yes! Newegg stocks Bitfenix cases now![/QUOTE] They have for almost a month now lol.
They haven't had cases afaik, only other stuff like the cable extensions, when I checked monday that's all I saw [editline]14th June 2012[/editline] Wait no they had the prodigy on their Newegg page but that was it
[QUOTE=Makol;36334147][URL]http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/301[/URL] should be ok?[/QUOTE] I'm not sure I have the extra PCI-E cables. Is there a way to get more? At this point, that's the only thing stopping me. Hell, I may bite the bullet and get a modular 700W PSU if there isn't a way.
The only thing you could get are molex adapters, but I find them sketchy as fuck
