    How powerful does your PC need to be to run MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries

    Yeah considering they already delayed the launch lack of simple detection and bindings is a worry. I haven't been able to get my x52 to work but I haven't had a lot of time to look at it. Just logged in yesterday and saw the new settings for joysticks were enabled. Seems to default to...

    AMD Predicted to go Bankrupt by 2020

    This is on the bottom of the Content page when I look at it. All circa 2014 if that helps track it.

    How long will an AIO last?

    I have an original H100 (not the i series) that I purchased in 2011. It's not causing me any issues and it runs pretty much 24/7 on my stock ivy 3770k. I had it overclocked @4.2 for a couple of years but then for the games I play it made no real world difference so decided running cooler and...

    Project Cars Monthly Challenge - July

    At least this way I can blame my setup instead of my average driving ;) Bathurst time above Also Warchild have a crack at this for a default setup challenge. I gave it about five or ten laps till I lost a wheel.. Oulton Park Island. Maclaren 12C GT3 I'm pretty sure it's not a DLC car and...

    A thankyou

    I've gone the same route - my old setup & top exhaust = happy cat.

    USB Header Adapter

    No worries so you're using the GRID as a fan controller so the USB splitter or an add in card like the one mentioned before makes sense. A fan speed reducer is typically a small cable that takes the fans down from 12v to 7v. They're what I use and are something like this:

    Post A Picture of Your Last Purchase

    That looks Classy AF. Just bought one of these as my cable tidying skills are being shown up horribly since I moved to a more compact chassis. I know it's older tech but running a Z77 motherboard I thought I should get one while they're still available. I'm going to try to find a way to hide...

    Stereo to Mono

    Yeah you can buy a stereo to mono adaptor jack. It's basically just a mono 3.5mm plug. They're about two dollars (well last time I bought one) You'd probably need to get a dual 3.5 to single 3.5 adaptor and then put the mono plug in line unless you can find a dual to single mono Something like...

    Star Wars Case theme Ideas - Please help

    I have a white Carbide 500R which I always wanted to put a Biker Scout helmet on the side. Just didn't get around to it so all I have is a First Order trooper inside guarding the HDD caddy. I can't find the original artwork but something like this on the back side and maybe an imperial logo...

    Headphone warning

    Just a word of warning to anyone that keeps their headphones on a stand or over the edge of their desk near a window. I sit mine over the side panel of my desk. Always check your ear cups before putting them on your head. I put mine on last night and something crawled in my ear. I ripped the...

    Phanteks Eclipse P400 Review

    Just came out in Aus at $99/$109/$119 depending on the version. Interestingly in the specs they specifically stay away from any mention of liquid cooling options up top. They only refer to front and rear options. The fan locations are listed separately and include the roof. Still looks...

    FML Thread
