I work at office depot and we get people starting to line up around 4am. That's freaking office depot. Fry's has them WAY earlier than that. I like the guy that said he's going after thanksgiving dinner is up :) Any of you guys have concealed carry licenses and don't regularly carry, it'd...

Meh, my magnavox LCD tv has served me well for a while, not a single dead pixel yet either, I'm happy :)

Nevermind. For anyone who searches this topic in the future, it is the power cord. She swapped cords with a friend on my advice and it works fine now. Upon checking dell's site I see a lot of reviews for replacement cords talking about how often they go bad. And that's the conclusion!

Girlfriend's computer this morning I noticed only had 2% battery charge left, even though it was plugged in all night. She leaves the computer on 24/7 and plugged in to the wall socket at all times... has anyone seen this before? I'm figuring it's one of 3 things, power cord, battery, or...

The signature series ran higher core voltages too. Sort of like I took my plain jane 7900gt from evga that wouldn't clock much higher than like 560mhz from it's stock 550, volt modded it to 1.4v , and clocked it up to 640 with almost no effort. Ran artifact free in ATItool's artifact test for...

There were 180,000 user accounts on the site. They're only gonna be going after the ones that contributed to the pre-releases, and maybe people who donated via paypal, which is not a smart thing to do. The rest of us will be fine. Just like when pirate bay got raided.

Sorry for the delay... checked at work today, the price is indeed $499 with no rebates.

To all who were interested, thanks for your interest. Someone offered to buy the whole lot from me in one buy (didn't even lowball me :p) so that's the route I'm going. Sorry to let you all down, it's just far easier this way.

Thanks.. Will let you know (and post in here as well) probly tomorrow or friday tomorrow if I sell the DS3.

Well, all details aside, I NEED money ASAP, so I'm gonna sell this e4300 machine I had that was just sitting folding. Heatware feedback here: http://www.heatware.com/eval.php?id=45088 Ebay feedback here...

I bought this a week ago and it's not currently in any ads, but a LOT of stores in my area still have it, and tonight at work (I work at an office depot) I checked inventory at a bunch of Houston stores and the price is still $549 bucks. Tomorrow starts a sale that goes for the next 3 days I...

Howdy folks... title is pretty self explanatory. I've got Heatware and EBAY feedbacks in the links. First up is an Asus P5B Deluxe/Wi-fi board. I bought this open-box from newegg so like normal, it comes with the board ONLY. No backplate, no wifi antenna (though the little part that...

Sorry to hear :(

Are those ATItool numbers accurate? 1100+ on core? Wtf is cooling the core???

Lot of stuff that plugs into PCI slots doesn't need driver installation past what winXP does on its own. This is where the device manager becomes your friend again

April 22 I believe is the date for the cuts.

Ugh... lets hope this stays this way a bit longer, just bought a new shotgun, don't have 800 bucks in the checking account anymore right now :(

Check the very beginning of the log when the thing started running, make sure you didn't misspell your username. May sound silly, but even with all the typing I've done in my life, I spelled mine wlatherone one time... hell, had it turn in 4 WU's even before I noticed it. Link to my...

Everything looks good as far as the transfer, same as my SMP machine always looks. Wait a few hours and check stanford or hardfolding and see if you're on there. If not, still don't worry, I've had a few of them take WAY more than three hours to show up for some reason. Never sure why it...

Heh, well I didn't start the folding thing till this past august, so I've not yet dealt with a houston summer... but currently all my machines are in my house, because the neighborhood I live in isn't the greatest and I don't want my stuff in the garage :p But even right now, this ROOM is like...

This in a folding-only machine I guess? :p I thought about putting mine out there as well, but I'm in houston, and it gets hot as all hell in our garage too... gotta think of something else soon, cuz it's starting to heat up, and this room is already hot..

Mine's been inside the case since installation. The CPU sensor it comes with is just kinda hanging inside the case, acting more as a case temp really :p If you think about it, it's not raising ambient temps anymore than air cooling would have had them. The air that's blowing through the...

Yeah I just have my CPU temp sensor with this kit acting as a case temp kit because it was worthless as an actual cpu temperature reader. But the tank temperature sensor seems accurate at least, for measuring water temp (always about 5-6c below the cpu temp which makes sense).

Ouch.. are those cpu temps, or "tank" temps according to the little LCD screen? I only ask because, I put the one I bought on a C2D e4300 @ 3ghz (at like 1.41vcore from what I remember) and running the SMP folding client even, it never has gone over about 37 degrees celsius unless the room...

:p :p :p

Exactly

oooh I accidentally drove to kingwood once :p

Same, except I go to UHD, transferred there from the central campus this past fall.

Nah I went to lamar consolidated with all the ghetto kids :p

Well, I've gotten obsessive with this like I do everything else. Ordered a chipset block and another radiator (black ice micro, 2x80mm since the little CompUSA case this went into has 2 80mm exit fans on back). Curious to see how well the pump supports an upright radiator... might end up...

No crap? I'm in Richmond, pecan grove area...no wonder your thread title was Howdy :D

He sure did ramp up like a madman, he was on a fast track to passing me in ranking, then he disappeared. I can't even find him in the member lists anymore on the hardfolding site... anyone know where he went?? He was a "defcon 1" on my threat list then the next morning he was a 2, then the...

It might help if anyone wanting to be nominated posts pics of themselves in a dress. You know, so the members can decide ;)

I nominate [BRO]Alaskan, who's SMP linux for noobs thread is what I used to get my C2D box running the linux smp client :D

Just mounting hardware differences.

Also fan connector... outer edge in the second pic, inner edge/corner in the pic before that one. Definitely two different cards, so i don't know exactly what they're tryin to feed us here ;)

I bit... been wanting to get another big HDD, down to 694mb free on this machine! Had no choice :p

I supposed the air pocket thing could be it as well, but like I said, I've known several people who have had cooling issues with the removal of a thermostat, all of which occurred in low speed (traffic-like) conditions. An air pocket's problems shouldn't be discriminating in their choices of...

The reducers are for exactly what he's saying they're for. Seen them used many times as well. As for the question at the end of your post, it's a relatively simple answer that most people sort of overthink I guess you could say. A normal car (not counting any 8 second strip cars)'s radiator...

Wrong. A car most certainly WILL overheat with no thermostat. I've known it to happen to several of my old racing buddies, and not all jsut in their "highly modified performance vehicles." The job of the thermostat is to do two things, one is what you said. The one you're overlooking...
