Hey all, Haven't been on here in a while, been cracking on with uni. Just a question about building a NAS from an old Q8300 Quad Core. I might need to grab some more RAM for it - i'm sure I can find some DDR2 pretty cheap. -- Not as fancy as TTL's Monster :P We've got an old Acer PC...

Hey guys, Anyone had much experience in creating a console-esque pc? I'm in a situation where i had to sell my pc to go travelling, but i've now been allowed free reign of the old pc we had sitting around. So i've got a q8300 and an old acer board (from a standard pc world pc) with a 5450...

Not to sure if this is in the right thread, but i guess it is GPU related ;p So I basically want to get into some litecoin mining (Sorry guys i'm out of the Folding game for the moment) I'm considering going with 2 280x's which should give me over 1000 khashes. Two questions: 1)I've...

Evening all, Had some god awful experience with the Home Hub, all of them i've had the 1st 2nd and 3rd. All are awful and i can't stand this BT Fon rubbish which we can't switch off without a headache from the technical team from the sounds of things. I need something that my family can use...

Hey guys, Stop folding for a weekend when i went home but back into it now. Are they any optimisations I can do for my 2600k. I've been doing a bit of reading around this BigAdv WU's but from what i've read they don't work on HTed 4 cores. Just wondering if there is anything else i can...

Don't know how many of you use DAW's such as Ableton but I have noticed since moving to PC my CPU usage being rather high Also it would seem that there is a hell of a lot of latency. Here is just a screen grab of a simple little project with an instrument rack with a few bits in, which...

Hi guys I've recently finished my little prodigy build and was wondering if anyone had any experience with the Corsair k65 mechanical keyboard. It'll be my first mechanical keyboard and from my research the reds seem to fit me quite well, as they're easy to press - and i'm used to the mac...

Hi guys, not sure how many of you are involved in the coding and developing world or as a hobby, but i've got a whole summer free pretty much and was wondering if anyone could suggest some languages to learn. Nothing overly specific, i've recently bought this c++ book -...

Just wondering what the general feeling on Hybrid Drives is? I'm looking at getting a 500gb one or something more, rather than an SSD and then a HDD Cheers :)

Hey guys i'm doing some moving around, and my H100i will be going into a new Uni build thats currently in the planning process, but i was wonding if http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Components/Fans+%26+Cooling/Air/Cooler+Master+Hyper+TX3+EVO+Quiet+CPU+Cooler+?productId=47249 this would be...

This is my second build, the first one being a bit of a disaster with parts i don't even remember ;) This is my pride and joy, which i constantly keep changing and tweaking. I've changed everything except the CPU and RAM since i got all the parts in the beginning (including the case) Full...

Hi Guys, i've been thinking about moving to Intel from my AMD chip Which is great, buuuuttttt....Intel seems to have more power and the Haswell things looks pretty awesome, and AMD seems to be hinting at something more powerful but not for some time... Lots of room for upgrade with insanely...

Hey guys i've got a 500gb PATA drive from a Maxtor external drive that died. So i took it apart and found the drive in there that uses a molex for power and the IDE connector (i think) the one with lots of pins... Has anyone found a good way to make this usable without putting into an...

Hi guys I've just decided to get in on this, i'm on my PC waaayyy too much just surfing so i'm sure i can lend a hand :) i'll probably be under Xenophole only running on my Mac (CPU) atm, but will get the pc going when i can :)
