The 7770 might fit, but it's hard to tell. That GTX 650 definitely won't fit. It looks like the GTX 650 Ti reference design might have, but nobody seems to make that. Here's the clearance on the card/CPU heatsink:

I thought no one had replied, but it turned out the emails were just going to some random account. So, the AMD HD 7750 will be able to putter along through video games at an okay resolution? I'm okay with an HDMI/DVI adapter to get 2x DVI. (I loaded something up yesterday, and the 3450 seemed...

I need a graphics card that will fit into a relatively tight space. It can be full height, but the length is pretty short. It also can't take two slots, and I need it to run two DVI ports. The power supply doesn't have a graphics card power adapter, but I think I can get a sata power to PCIe...

Well, he's using WD 2TB Green drives. If he were using a system that supported staggered spinup, then you will have a maximum draw of ~7.2W per drive during heavy usage. For 70 drives that's, only 504W. Add in another 200W for CPU, motherboard, etc, and a reasonable 80% efficient power...

Really? A brightly painted cardboard box immediately makes you think someone is trying to blow you up? Maybe you need to relax a little.

First of all, you are wrong. Sovereign immunity applies to federal and state organizations, not to local governments. So suing the state highway patrol is a completely different matter from suing your local police department (which is what the article is about). Second, Blown 89 posted a...

I'd be a lot more worried about the toxic fumes produced by burning lithium, as well as the fire in the cabin. And if someone were dumb enough to throw water on it, the exploding lithium shrapnel.

No. UnrealIRCD runs on many OS's, including Windows. I've run an Unreal IRC server on my Windows system.

Well, the original Z-drive was $1000 in its lowest 256GB configuration. That doesn't bode well for a consumer version. What I'd really like to see is an affordable 64GB version with better transfer rates and upgradeability than a SATA SSD. For low density MLC chips, it seems like you'd be...

Microwaves picked up by small metal wires can create quite a bit of electrical voltage which would fry the electronics. (Yeah, I know you're kidding, but it's worth mentioning.)

I'll be sticking with Firefox for the foreseeable future due to all of the extensions I use. But if I didn't use so many extensions, I'd quickly switch to Chrome. The thing that annoys me most about Firefox is having the whole browser freeze while it loads a tab in the background. Once...

Arrington said they were going to demo Windows 7 on it, so I can't imagine it'd be that hard.

The older Atom doesn't "contribute to the shitty battery life", it's the chipset it was originally paired with that consumed 15W all by itself. The original Atom on a newer chipset is just fine. The reason to go with the Atom was options. Arrington said they were going to demo full...

Ditto. Google's servers are heavily distributed, so it may take a while for the changes to propagate. Or they may just be testing the new page with some people.

The link doesn't appear to be working anymore, but I can't seem repairing most electronics. If the warranty will cover it, then great. But usually it seems like repair costs on small electronics (cameras, cell phones, etc) cost only a little less than getting a whole new device.
