    How's the Crucial MX100?

    Got my 512gb MX100 in. Cloned from my old Patriot Pyro 120gb, which replaced a Torqx that died on me. Cloned with Acronis 2014 copy and was back at my desktop in 10 minutes. I won't lie, can't notice the speed difference whatsoever, but I was buying for the space anyway. Great deal for this...

    how would you adapt a slow cooker recipe for the stove?

    If you have a dutch oven I'd put it in that and braise it in the oven for some temp/time ratio. Lower temp and longer time will simulate a slow cooker better. Just not as energy efficient as the slow cooker.

    How to battle running cramps?

    Magnesium (chelated). IE not magnesium oxide. Magnesium glycinate, magnesium citrate work. Fixed it for me.

    Star Citizen: Chris Robert`s new space sim (the Wing Commander guy)

    The way I see it is the ship is basically the ROI for the people funding the game. With a typical financing scheme he would have to pay an interest rate on the loan to the investors, or a fee to the publishers. The ship is simply a way to incentivize this method of fund raising. Instead of...

    Worth fixing Corsair TX 650

    I have a TX 650 that is from (I think 2008 or 2009). The fan has stopped working. Is it worth taking apart and fixing, or should I just get a new PSU? It is worth noting that 650W is way overkill for my system. I'm just running a 3570k and a 7850. Do I gain efficiency going to a more...

    Looking for low DPI 5 button mouse

    My last microsoft explorer mouse has died. I had the one in the picture below. I'm looking for something 400ish DPI or adjustable to that range. 5 buttons only. No rubberized surface. I'd prefer one that doesn't correct my input, but I don't do much FPS gaming, so that's not a requirement...

    Does anyone still get the AMD 7xxx bug where your monitor doesn't wake up from sleep?

    This has come back for me in the recent drivers. It's not even sleep for me. If I set the monitors to turn off but not sleep, I still have to hard reset because they won't power back up. It wouldn't be too annoying, except one of my monitor's power buttons is broken, so I have to poke in there...

    What do you dislike about your car?

    04 G35 Coupe The seat belt holder mechanism thing that allows people to get in the back seat. Stops the seat belt retracting and I have to stuff it back there manually. Annoying.

    Iron Man 3: Currently 78% at RT.com (Post reviews here!)

    I did not like this movie at all. Way too many plot holes in general and inconsistencies from the first two movies.

    SIM City 5 - Actual Strategy Discussion

    This is what pisses me off more than anything about this game. The more I played and develop regions, the worse and worse cities did due to traffic. I stopped playing for this reason. I have no desire to watch queues of cars get stuck and destroy my infrastructure. What a waste of money.

    SIM City 5 - Actual Strategy Discussion

    This means either you built it on top of a polluted water table, or your treatment plant lacks sufficient capacity to deal with all the sewage, at which point it dumps raw sewage. If it's working properly it will dump clean water.

    SIM City 5 - Actual Strategy Discussion

    Yes, you do need enough room to educate everyone, but university's provide full coverage since sims can use mass transit to get to them. That being said, running overnight it's also entirely possible you had zombies or something else eat/destroy your population. My cities are running fine with...

    SIM City 5 - Actual Strategy Discussion

    So it seems that sims do not progress through the grades in education. You can have full education/attendance with only a university. You can save some money on additional schools by deleting them after you have a university. The only thing I am not sure about is if the passive benefits of...

    Civilization V or Civilization IV?

    I agree with others that IV is technically better. V is also very easy. In IV the highest I could beat was immortal and deity absolutely kicked my ass. In V deity is not really hard if you make it past the first 50 turns. That being said, combat in IV is quite boring. You'll have a giant stack...

    Overclocking a 3570k with odd thermals

    If I remember right from reading I did a while ago, the temperature sensors are not very accurate at low temps. Load the processor and see if you get a delta. You likely still will as many peolpe have found with IB CPUs, but this should not be an issue. You may have gotten some air bubbles...

    StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm

    Possible the SC2 campaign is some attempt to distance themselves from the Tyranids from Warhammer 40k. Zerg are a pretty clear copy of the Tyranids and I think I remember Blizzard catching some flak about it in the past.

    SIM City 5 - Actual Strategy Discussion

    Red, some of that could be another bug I've found with trade depots. Sometimes when mine buys material, I will get 1 unit of delivery, but receive a charge for multiple deliveries. Again, not sure what causes this, but it bankrupted one of my cities due to poor timing after placing an expensive...

    SIM City 5 - Actual Strategy Discussion

    In the event you aren't aware, there is currently a bug where recycling plants will stop working. This might be causing your backup, check to make sure they are producing. You have to demolish and rebuild it to fix this. Usually demolishing one will fix all that are stuck. I haven't seen what...

    SIM City 5 - Actual Strategy Discussion

    Water will still be contaminated if you build those two next to areas with ground pollution. All the treatment facility does is clear up the sewage produced so that it is dumped as clean water (unless it is over capacity). It won't clear up existing ground pollution.

    SIM City 5 - Actual Strategy Discussion

    Yeah, I have an avenue grid with a lot of high rises, but I think I am using too much space with parks getting high land value. My city is sitting around 70k right now and most of the rich people are complaining about a lack of parks (the high land value area is patchy still). I guess if I use...

    SIM City 5 - Actual Strategy Discussion

    For those hitting 200k+ pop, are you using parks for land value. I do this but I find it takes up a lot of room for my zoning. If I don't do it, do builings eventually get to higher density anyway? My citizens seem to always be unhappy without parks.

    Intel i7 2600k - do I have a lemon?

    This means there is error correction going on. The processor is not unstable enough to cause a crash, but it's not getting accurate results either. The loss in speed is due to the resources being used to error correct.

    Catalyst 13.1 Out Now (New 13.2 Beta Links 3,4&5)

    I have gotten this. I also get weird issues on jigzone.com with the new drivers, but only in Firefox. When I drag the pieces around they leave a trail of bits. Hard to do a puzzle like that. Seems fine otherwise, though.

    Green drive vs RED drive vs Cheaper Seagate 7200rpm for use 24/7 WHS server/Flexraid?

    I got 2 of these 7200.14's from the black friday deals too. One was DOA, but Amazon shipped another no problem. Both had 2 year warranty too. The one from Amazon was made in Thailand and the one from Newegg was made in China.

    Delidded my i7-3770K, loaded temperatures drop by 20°C at 4.7GHz

    Just a matter of curiosity. When people are referring to safe voltages, is this before vdroop or after? I'm curious how much more I could put my processor through while still being in a "safe" range.

    Delidded my i7-3770K, loaded temperatures drop by 20°C at 4.7GHz

    Remember of course that the IHS is removed here. I doubt you want to use the same mounting pressure, especially given the IHS doesn't even seem to sit on the die.

    Why isn't there an SI time unit that isn't based on historical things?

    On another note, the year 0 also doesn't exist. It goes 1 BC to 1 AD. This is why the new millenium technically started in 2001, not 2000.

    Half-Life 3 after 2013, to be open world?

    Any Significant Performance Gain From DDR2 To DDR3 With Old C2D CPU ?

    Oh hey, I guess I should have looked at that. I forgot about those hybrid boards. Either way, even the extra 2 gigs of ram probably isn't going to give what you are looking for. Your video card is going to be doing the bottlenecking.

    Any Significant Performance Gain From DDR2 To DDR3 With Old C2D CPU ?

    Well, if you managed to hammer the DDR3 in, I'm not sure it would boot any more. Kidding aside, you can't use DDR3 in a DDR2 board.

    [H] ASUS GeForce GTX 660 DirectCU II Video Card Review

    Just as reference, I bought a MSI twin forzr for $240 at launch. I don't know what you consider a good cooler, but it runs up to 1200mhz if I want to up the voltage.

    4th week in, temps are same as week 3. That is to say, the same as before the mod. Hoping it is stabilized here. I'll check again next week.
