HOT: Crucial M4 128GB - $90 shipped @ buy.com; WARM: $100 shipped @ newegg

Thanks for the deal. I have one of these in my work computer and it works like a charm. I'm in for 1, finally replacing my Vertex 3. Maybe I'll actually be able to put my computer to sleep.

Who uses an unusual kb/m config?

Same here. If I need to, I change the in game settings to match what's on my N52. That way everything I do is the same in every game. I use razor mouse though, like the flat feel of it. Had to exchange my mouse at work for a razor as well, things were just to slow on the stock dell one they gave us.

Q6600 to 2500K for BF3?

Yep yep, I'm well beyond that point. Was still having issues until I found some evidence leading to my post. Anyways, it's OT at this point.

ASRock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3 - Who has it?

Installed one last night too. Didn't have any issues. The processor was normal from what I remember. I don't think there are pins for the internal speaker. I didn't even see one in the box. Haven't used Dr. Debug. One thing I noticed as others have said, it's not really full ATX and the...

ASRock Extreme3 Gen3 Problem (or a memory problem maybe)

Before you do anything make sure your power connections are secure. The 24 pin-ATX supply being on the edge of the board is more difficult then usual because of the middle of the board doesn't have a screw to be connected to an ATX case on the right side of the board. Hope that makes sense. But...

Q6600 to 2500K for BF3?

I've been messing around with sleeping on Z68 and P67 systems. Seems like unless you make sure that you either leave an application open and sleep it or wait a minute or two after closing an application, sleep can cause BSOD. Firefox seems to take a minute to shutdown and if I sleep it too...

OCZ Solid 3 120GB 2.5IN SATA3 SandForce SF-2281 @ NCIX - $135 - $20 rebate = $114

Yeah... the new firmware ain't all that. Makes the Urethra idea even more tantalizing. When 2.15 came out, I did secure erase, cleared cmos (battery out for 1/2 a day), reinstalled windows... it doesn't go 24hrs without crashing. If FW was stable, then the deal would be descent.

SandForce Identifies Firmware Bug Causing BSOD Issue, Fix Available Today

FW's progressively got worse for me. I'm on 2.15 now and haven't notice anything yet but it's only been 1 day. 2.13 was 2-5 BSOD's/day at least sometimes more. It was unusable. I'm going into this FW as the notes seem to speak directly to the issues I was seeing.

I'm about to unlock the IS-7 too. Don't know if I'm going to buy it either... probably going to run up the German heavy line. I hear the T29 is the best tank for the US line and I have that already and thinking of maybe taking it up to T32. But I don't know if I want to chase the American line...

I wrecked 2 59's with my T54, both were at 100% I ended up ~35%. They were discent players too, just bounced too many shots and missed me a few times. I didn't miss a single shot and nailed a soft spot on all but 1 shot. I'm willing to bet that I was the only with stabilizer, vents and...

The only time I use auto aim is when I'm focusing on multiple tanks and trying to find ground that is advantageous to me. I use it only to get squared on a tank I'm about to shoot. Before I shoot, I always fine tune my aim by switching to manual. But it does allow me to swing the turret...

Don't scope to kill them... just start tracking them with the sights and when you catch up to them, fire. And boom, they die. Aiming in will only cost you time and inaccuracy because your moving with no reference and your likely to hit a teammate.

2600k High Temps/Corsair H60

So the fans are supposed to air out of the case, right? I've seen some pictures of systems where the fans appear to be blowing air into the case. Seems like that would blow hot air off the radiator and into the rest of the case causing temps to rise even more. I want to RMA and buy the H100 when...

2600k High Temps/Corsair H60

I did go back and flipped the radiator back around like I used to have it. It made very little difference. So far the biggest differences have come from making changes in voltages: Vcore from 1.4v to 1.325v PLL overvoltage from disabled to enabled PLL from 1.832v to 1.759v VTT from 1.05v to...

Lowered the PLL to 1.709, lowered the multi to 45 still hitting 85+ with small fft's. I had the radiator mounted like yours and the same thing was happening so I flipped it. Pump says it's running at 4420-4450 RPM, which according to a corsair mod on their forums is correct.

I don't know, I had a blast with the T-43 and the T-44 (in beta and now). Support the heavies on your team, your right they aren't dog fighters but they are more maneuverable and can get you into better shooting positions.
