    5870 beeps solid under load

    I just got home from work an hour ago and troubleshot: each card individually, temps were fine, installed the new 10.4 drivers, but still got the audible alarm under test then i figured it out... it was an older UPS in alarm, which the PC was plugged in to (alone). I was likely pulling too...

    5870 beeps solid under load

    WHich 2TB is more reliable: Seagate LP or WD Green?

    I'm using 6 of the Seagate ST32000542AS (firmware CC32) in a RAID6 in a NAS. Of course, I read plenty of ugly reviews between the WD green and this LP, finally went with the Seagate after reading simply about the head parking after brief no access. I have a 1TB green in an external...

    Recommendations on a good UPS for a WHS server

    I got the Cyberpower 1500AVR from newegg for my new QNAP TS-639 setup. It read over an hour of battery runtime with the 6 bay NAS alone, which is more than acceptable. This morning I added my workstation and displays, with the modem/router as well (for a bit more realistic use). I like the...

    Tribes: Vengance open beta :)

    Not being a huge T1 or T2 fan, I enjoyed the little MP open beta. Also, I didn't see how it was "UT2k4 with jetpacks" To me, it seemed more like "T2 with a grapple" (and worse gameplay). Maybe since I'm not a big FPS guy, and never played a huge amount of T2, I couldn't see the subtle...
