    My Areca 1210 Review

    Finally got some time this weekend to post the results of my Areca 1210 array testing. The objective of my analysis was not to determine if RAID0 is better than JBOD or anything else for that matter, it was really just to determine if the Areca performed as expected and to compare it to...

    Air Flow vs. Water Flow (is more always better?)

    I ran a simple experiment on my dual pump system, comparing delta-temperatures (air to CPU) at idle and load in four different configurations: Quiet (pumps and fans both undervolted to ~ 7V) More Air Flow (pumps undervolted but fans running at full speed) More Water Flow (fans undervolted...

    IPv6 and Vista

    I see that IPv6 is integrated into Vista. Is there any benefit to using an IPv6 router for a home network of Vista PC's and using 6to4 over the WAN? I'm considering this...

    Portrait Mode - Tearing while rapid scrolling... Normal?

    Hi have a 2007FP and in portrait mode using nVrotate on my 7900GS, and scrolling a long full-screen web page (like a long [H] thread) I notice tearing of the image while scolling quickly. BTW, It's actually more noticable on a lighter background forum than say [H] which has a darker background...

    Samsung introduces 30-inch LED-based monitor

    One can only wonder at the cost. It's also not clear what the resolution is, but I would assume 2560x1600 like the other 30" panels. Also, how do they get 2ms response times and 170-degree viewing angles!? Source

    Dell 3007WFP history in Canada...

    Hi, I'm interested in getting a Dell 3007WFP... ideally a 3007WFP-HC. I'm in Canada as you might have guessed, and I'm wondering what the pricing history is like for the 3007WFP... perhaps someone who has been monitoring this model in Canada can answer some of the following questions...

    Gaming performance at 1920x1200?

    How is the gaming performance at 1920x1200? I assume you need an 8800 series card to even consider gaming at this resolution with all the eye-candy and some AA? I'm primarily playing BF2/BF2142 and RS6 Vegas right now but will want to play Crysis when it comes out. Am I going to be...

    What dual monitor combo 1920x1200 plus a 1600x1200

    I wouldn't mind getting a pair of monitors... one being a 1920x1200 and the other a 1600x1200 Ideally, both would be identical except for the size/res... what I mean is made by the same manufacturer, same specs, same type of panel, same dot pitch, etc. Any suggestions? What about...

    Project Waku - Stacker 830, Dual DDC's, Dual GT's...

    Hi, as many who frequent this forum already know, I've been working on a watercooling rig for the last couple of months. And as everyone knows, it's a massive investment of time to do the research, source the parts, wait for them to arrive, and then put it all together. Due to the great...

    Running two DDC Ultra's in series...

    Hi, I know this may be way overkill, but I've ordered a second DDC Ultra as a backup in case I have reliability issues with my first pump, and I got to thinking... why not run them both in the loop? My question: If you run two pumps and they don't flow "exactly" the same, does this cause...

    Intel Straps and Memory Overclocking... Yikes!

    Can someone possibly explain this in terms an AMD guy can understand? http://www.bleedinedge.com/forum/showthread.php?t=22297 Is this relevant? Is this saying you cannot use a memory overclock divider (i.e. 4:5) AND a high FSB speed at the same time? Sheesh. :confused:

    Noob to Intel Memory Overclocking... Please Help...

    Hi, I understand AMD overclocking well but I'm confused about Intel Overclocking and therefore RAM selection for a new Conroe build. Help me out here by correcting or filling in the blanks... On an E6600 Conroe we have: Base bus speed = 266MHz FSB = 266x4 =1067MHz CPU = 266x9 =...

    Fittings supplied with rads/pumps from Performance-PCs?

    Hi, for all of you who ordered rads or pumps from www.performance-pcs.com, you know when you buy, you can select a fitting size (either 1/2" or 3/8") from the drop down box. What fittings do you get if you select 1/2"? Are they perfect seal style fittings or barbed high-flow type fittings...

    Mounting MCW60 on 7800GTX (can you do it sideways)?

    I see the most common mounting option for the MCW60 on a 7800GTX is to mount it with the in/outlets pointing up (perpendicular to the card)... Is it possible to mount the block parallel to the card so the in/outlets exit towards the rear-end of the card? I have clearance issues above my...

    140mm fans?

    Hi, I'm moving to a Cooler Master Stacker 830 case for my water cooling rig which supports 140mm fans. I'm trying to track down a good place to buy 140mm fans that are silent and allow a wide range of operating voltages to control them from my Aquaero fan controller. I've done a bit of...

    1/2" Fittings... which type are best?

    Hi, I'm going with 1/2" fittings on my rig but 7/16" tubing. In general, are push on fittings better (I'm sure that's not an option in my case with odd size tubing), barbs (like on the swifttech blocks), or something else? What about clamps. I would rather be safe than sorry even...

    Which tube size & pump: DDC Ultra or D5/MCP655?

    Hi, I've got a good overclock now on air but at full loads the fan noise is killing me. I'm fairly certain I am going to use a Stacker 830 case as my platforrm and attach a pair of 240 stealth rads to the side fan arrangement which will support 4 140mm fans. I am going to use an Aquaero...
