    The "I love my printer" thread

    Epson Stylus Photo R1800 A3+ printer. Love it, bit expensive when I first bought it. But it was a need, not a want so not bothered. Great print quality and lots of options, printing via firewire is really fast...

    Watercooler Virgin :P

    I don't mind have the pump/reservoir outside of the case. However if having everything inside the case is more efficient and has better potential - then I'm all up for that and any DIY or work that it may entail :) I'm not pigeon-holeing any situation, I'm open to suggestions and definately...

    Watercooler Virgin :P

    Wow, thanks for the post! I'm probably looking to spend at most £250 to get something decent and quiet. I can of course always be persuaded to spend more (or less) if it is really neccesary - as this is my first foray, I'm not so clued up as to what is a decent budget for a w/c outfit :) A...

    Watercooler Virgin :P

    Hey guys, I've been a good guy and saved, now I'm waiting for the Q6600 price drop coming up soon till I purchase ;) I've been reading up on overclocking the Q6600, and it seems in all cases that air-cooling will only get you so far. I'm not after bleeding the thing to death, but a good...

    I don't understand your comment on the 2407 A04 scaling problems? I don't have any problems scaling, so do enlighten me.

    in terms of futureproofing with a monitor, what should i do?

    I think it should serve you very well in theory. In terms of future proofing, it has a good check on that. Most important for Blu-ray/HD is having a connection that is HDCP compatible. Which it has in the DVi port. This port is a pure digital connection, the only difference to HDMI is that it...

    My Precious is running too hot!

    I have a 15" G4 powerbook, and it got extremely hot at one point. Too hot to touch, literally. So I thought I would suggest this product (MBP version): http://www.powersupportusa.com/products/me.php?category=pb This is such a great product, that a Japanese friend of mine got for me. It...

    Computer Desks

    Meh - I saw some Jerker desks a few weeks ago at the UK Ikea store in Wembley and I was suitably un-impressed. Damned ugly if you ask me, and I personally wouldn't recommend one. Plenty of stock there, however the Galant was down to the last few parts. My brother went on a seperate trip a few...

    2407WFP PS3 Set up question

    Thanks for the info. Good point about the speaker set up with dual or more optical inputs - hadn't thought of that. I think that has kind of helped it be a little clearer. I'd rather purchase everything at once (cables etc) so I'll be on the look out for a HDMI to DVI cable (and maybe a DVI...
