I bet some USPS guy is going to steal my package, I ordered like $300 in motherboards with untracked mail. Not sure if paranoid or legitimate concerns.

[editline]12th May 2012[/editline]
you should be more concerned about him dropping it or something
i swear to god i could bitch about USPS all day
sometimes I'm an idiot though
I scheduled my package for pickup tomorrow so I can just drive down and get my iPhone whenever
then I realized tomorrow is Saturday and by the time I'd wake up the mail would be delivered anyway
:I
though did I mention i spent $10 extra for express mail and it spent the entire day in Tempe doing fuck knows what??? my first class packages (the digitizer and tools) arrived at the SAME FUCKING TIME and the shipping was FREE

I don't trust USPS with anything usually.
Yeah.. USPS + ASUS Sabertooth 990FX probably isnt a good combination at all.

Is there any benefit to running a SSD other then quick load times that you won't really notice..
I think I'll wait for OCZ's TLC that is supposedly coming soon at half the cost of current SSD's.
Hey, it's not for me, but I know for a fact that there are people out there that would blow $200 on an SSD.
The reason I pointed it out is because Intel SSD's have the lowest failure rates and are generally overpriced because of this, so it's rare to see one go under $1/1GB.

I'd buy an SSD just so I could load GTAIV in it. Fucking 15 GB of content...
But yeah, the only real difference is less heat than HDD, faster boot/load time, and if you want a completely silent computer they make no noise.
I dream of the day when someone makes a breakthrough in heatsink tech and we're finally allowed to have passive-cooled, SSD-storage, completely silent, no-moving-parts gaming PCs.
The closest you can get to that right now is a custom loop, but that costs you an arm and a leg
IBM needs to hurry up with Racetrack.

You don't need racetrack. Nothing we have will be able to take advantage of that speed. Not even Power7 would make use of all the bandwidth it would provide, and if THE most powerful processor ever made won't take advantage of it, what hopes does your groddy commodity x86 processor have?

It would still be a ton faster then my hard drive.

You mean like an SSD would be?
Why do they need to hurry up when we already have things that work perfectly fine for commodity?
Because I want.

Apparently, USPS banned the the export of anything that contains a Li-ion battery. Motherfuckers.

Quantum processing is absolute [b]USELESS[/b] for everything other than encryption breaking. So no, it would be awful.

Why is that?
It is mainly applicable to very specific problems, mainly involving solving things with many possible solutions but only few main desired ones, just due to the properties of matter being exploited.
