    New Dual Xeon Build

    The time has come to move on to something different. My X99 machine is being moved from my computer shop to my home. And it is being replaced with a dual Xeon machine. It is still a work in progress as I just got it up and running on Friday and haven't had much time to do anything with it. At...

    Possible First Time Water Cooling

    It has been mentioned a few times that I should put the new rig under water. I would be interested as it definitely looks awesome as well as the noise and performance gains. However I never have done anything like this at all yet. Would one of those high end all-in-one kits be a good starting...

    Two Internet Connections Finally

    In an effort to get more upload I finally got my second internet connection today at the shop. It took some time to get them to do it, as typically they don't run 2 seperate connections, but an engineer finally came out and approved it and provided a spot for me to hook into. Fastest available...

    Gigabyte GTX 980 G1 Gaming Too Thick

    Not to happy with these cards as they are too damn thick. Its impossible to put them in 3-way or 4-way with my Rampage V Extreme as they are sandwiched so tight that the first fans on cards 1 and 2 can not spin. I have to rig it up with fexible cables as that allows me to pull them apart, but...

    Spider Photos

    Found a spider I have never seen before at the shop today, so I had to get a few pics of him/her. Those would be the best two I took out of about 200. Hard to do with it non-stop moving.

    The New Computer Shop

    I haven't posted on here for several months since I moved from doing business out of my home into an actual store front back in May. Too bad I mostly deal with older stuff as that is what needs repairs. My desk has downgraded to a smaller table as I needed the large countertop for work space...

    Dusty Computers

    Some of these computer I receive to work on require a few pictures to be taken for the fun of it. Amazing how dusty some are inside, probably never cleaned out a single time.

    Folding @ Home Power Draw

    Just wanted to see what kind of wattage was coming from the wall during my folding @ home adventures. Less then gaming at least but still quite high.

    Folding @ Home Signature

    Funny thing is I just started on Sunday so it has been three days now. Yet it says my average is only 105K day yet i have 738,910 so far. Well averaging 738,910 over three days comes out to 246,303. Something does not seem right there.

    800D Case Shipping

    What is the best way to ship a case without having the original box? Not exactly an easy task to find one of the correct dimensions for the 800D and have it not be totaled during transit.
