  1. Don't Laugh - Serious Question

    IDontCare, those are very interesting graphs. Thanks! I think this will be a fun project. How low can I go. Heh. And Max, yes, I have seen this type of device before :) I generally dislike fans, especially the stand up kind. Hard to explain, they just annoy me.
  2. Don't Laugh - Serious Question

    Ok, thanks everyone! These are some genuinely excellent comments, and suggestions for me to consider. I will certainly scope out those links as well. I definitely find myself leaning more towards computer efficiency these days, in contrast to all out Power & Speed; this results in a cooler...
  3. Don't Laugh - Serious Question

    Ok, thank you for your informative responses. Perhaps it is my fat ass that is just generating too much heat :\
  4. Don't Laugh - Serious Question

    "Its like will a 50W light bulb heat your room up?" In truth, I am not sure. When the system is overclocked, there is quite a bit of heat being generated out of the vents from the case. I keep the door closed (because I must - Kids sleeping), and I assumed that the heat would make somewhat...
  5. Don't Laugh - Serious Question

    I guess I should add for clarification. The room isn't too large, approximately 120sq ft, and I keep it at 23.3C (~74 Fahrenheit). I assumed that the CPU running at 40-60C, depending on overclock/voltage, would add a fair amount of heat to the room.
  6. Don't Laugh - Serious Question

    First, thanks for your response. Second, is that 0.2C or 2C?
  7. Don't Laugh - Serious Question

    I am getting too hot at night in my office (computer room). I have decided to revert my Core 2500k, which was running at 4700 mhz @ 1.38v, back to stock frequency; I honestly just don't need the extra juice at this time. I was wondering, perhaps at the default 3300mhz, I could even lower the...
  8. GAZA (before & after pictures)

    Why are a bunch of kids talking about something of which, based on the comments, they are pretty uninformed?
  9. Help with my Wife's PC build

    Ah, sorry about putting this thread in the wrong spot.
  10. Help with my Wife's PC build

    Hi (old timer here), Pre-ramble: I am trying to build my wife a work-focused PC. As a Structural Engineer, she will use the machine primarily for AutoCAD work. Unfortunately, I am not very current on PC builds. I built mine 2 years ago, and it was designed around gaming. Stipulations...
  11. Laugh of the day - NK nuke strike on white House

    The UPS comment was great. The real issue with N.Korea, Iran, etc., in the long-run, is preventing access to nuclear material. Even these dimwits could eventually build a missule that works. Our biggest concrrn is the nuclear viability of that missile. If N.Korea shot off a nuke at us, yes...
  12. Help with Server/Workstation Config - (Sorta clueless)

    That is a good point. I will bring up your concerns and see if he understands the warranty and service trade-offs with self-built. Thanks.
  13. Help with building a workstation.

    Ok, thanks again for everything!
  14. Help with building a workstation.

    Makes sense. One last thing (I hope), with respect to the CPU, should be looking at an Intel Xeon processor?
  15. Help with building a workstation.

    Thanks, this is fantastic. I appreciate you taking the time. Also, sorry about the fail-link. This looks very much like what I thought I should get. Really, the motherboard and CPU were throwing me off. I know Asus is a great motherboard maker for enthusiast systems. Do you think it's a good...
  16. Help with building a workstation.

    I helped put together a component list for a pretty good gaming machine for my cousin. He really got into the hands on aspect of building one's own computer. He now wants to build a couple of workstations for his dental office. He asked me for a component list. I really wanna help, but I don't...

  18. Critique my PC Build

    I think I will switch the GPU to the 6950, I was considering it earlier due to its better multi-monitor support. At first I nixed it as I was already over-budget, but I think I can afford it now by using some of the money saving suggestions in this thread. Thanks all, I appreciate the help!
  19. Critique my PC Build

    Hah, it is funny you say that. I swear I have planned on doubling up video cards 100 times, but I never do! I am however almost positive that I want to run 3 monitors at 1080P. I am not sure if that is easier done with SLI cards or 1 super card.
  20. Critique my PC Build

    That's a good point about the PC I connectors. Thanks.
  21. Critique my PC Build

    That is a very nice case, but I have 3 little munchkins that would love to push that reset button, hah! I think I am going with the 560TI, seems like a good balance between price and performance. I can always double up later on if they get to the low 100's. Thanks!
  22. Critique my PC Build

    Quick question: I am pretty certain the 750W power supply is more than sufficient to run my system. I was curious as to whether 650W would also be enough? Please keep in my mind that I may eventually run 3 monitors, which may even require adding another videocard.
  23. Critique my PC Build

    I am going to go read about the ASrock Z68, as I am not familiar with it. Thank you.
  24. Critique my PC Build

    Hello. Yes, I am still around. I read the forums quite a bit, but I don't really post that often. Anyway, on to the build! Key Assumptions: 1. I play games like Starcraft 2 and Half-Life. I also do basic school work, usually while watching movies on my second monitor. I do not need...
  25. Specific question about Z68 virtu/integrated graphics

    Thanks wasd.alltheway. I am actually hoping to get a motherboard without the integrated graphics, but I wanted to make sure I did not overlook any features that I may regret losing.
  26. Specific question about Z68 virtu/integrated graphics

    I was trying to decide between getting a Z68 with or without integrated graphics, not on whether to get a z68 board at all. There are other things included as part of the z68 platform that are relevant to me, but they are common to both configurations. Either way, I believe your answer was...
  27. Specific question about Z68 virtu/integrated graphics

    Hey, I was gonna purchase a Z68 board (Likely the Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD4-B3) Assumptions: 1. I want the Z68 for its built-in token feature (No interest in P67) 2. I will use a powerful discrete GPU that minimizes the need for virtu transcoding benefits (should the need should arise) 3. I do...
  28. Which TV is best used as a monitor?

    That would be awesome, I appreciate it. And congratulations.
  29. Which TV is best used as a monitor?

    oh god, 55" in my face would be so disorienting. It is interesting to hear you are comfortable using 37". Any particular brand/model/etc?
  30. Which TV is best used as a monitor?

    Thanks, those are some great points. And what you said makes total sense. I will still see the same information on screen but it should be scaled larger. I think my decrepit old eyes would appreciate that, hah. My concern with a 27" monitor running an extremely high resolution is that...
  31. Which TV is best used as a monitor?

    Hey, first thanks for the response. Yeah definitely gonna do 1080p, and I was guessing 32" is really as big as one can get until TV resolutions go up. I have 2 monitors and I do like them. But I wanted to do side-by-side spreadsheets and I need something big. I think the biggest good monitor...
  32. Which TV is best used as a monitor?

    Hi there, It sure has been some time since I posted. Forgive me if this is the wrong place, but I think it is appropriate. I want to use a TV as a PC monitor. I am guessing that as long as I dont want to run higher than 19x12 then some of the new 1080P sets should work. But I am going...

  37. Basic question about Memory

    Hi all, I gought a 512MB PC2700 kingston mem module a while back for my Abit IS7 (nForce chipset). I wanted to add another 512MB chip. However I do not want to buy the slower PC2700. I'd rather get PC4000 or something like that. My question is do I have to have the two chips run at the...
