<< Deep Blue you are an Idiot, but I digress in hopes that that statement you made is just your attempt at eloquently voicing your opinion from the upbringing of a segregated majority community. Your statements ostracize and highlight an ENTIRE PEOPLE -without regard for any individual, that is...

<< dont forget, peltiers and watercoolers etc are recyclable as well, after this CPU becomes obsolete, you can just use it on the next one or sell it. >> Yes but the cost of purchasing a peltier itself would be less than the total cost of operating it after a certain amount of time.

Right on man. Great post. People need to accept the fact that underachievement in the black and hispanic communities has nothing to do with racism. It has everything to do with the hispanic and black culture. Neither culture values education. Look at Asians. They are a minority yet they are much...

No one on Anandtech is going to win. If one of you did win and you posted saying you won no one would believe you anyways. Now to speculate about the prize money. I believe if you get the lump sum straight up you get half of the money. So obviously the best thing to do after that is invest it...

<< Fuzzy math. You want to divide 39 by .0064 ..not 0.64. 0.64 would be 64 cents, not .64 cents. Big difference. That means it takes 6093.75 hours to make up the difference. That's 253 days. Using your math, the peltier uses $461 worth of electricity in one month! That's four times what...

<< Rand, Thank you for saying that! I thought I saw a straw man being set up to knock down at the beginning of this thread! I am one of those people who saved money overclocking. I specifically set out to do that when I researched and built my PC. I was on a limited budget and wanted to...

<< << In conclusion I really don't see the point of overclocking in an economic sense. >> For the most part yes. There are exceptions to the rule like (IE cpus like the old 300a, which were almost guaranteed overclocks). I used to overclock all of my old systems, my last 4 cpus were...

Most people are not intelligent. Thus most movies will not be intellectual. What is it that you guys don't understand about this? If you want to see movies that are more intellectual and go to an art house. Guess what group of people goes to the movies the most? Teenagers. Do you think that...

I would say that you would take the item in to a professional appraiser that deals in the type of item you want authenticated.

<< Well I see you've done your homework young man. One thing you forgot to mention is that overclocking can sometimes cause stability problems which is OK if you're just some kid playing games but not if you're using you're computer to make money with. >> Yes, that is an important factor yet...

<< regular overclocking saves money, extreme overclocking is a hobby which ususally costs more than a regular system would of, but it's their hobby. I have a duron 800@1000...just a $20 heatsink/fan on it. If you add a peltier and water cooling, that's easily over a hundred dollars, and your...

<< you are thinking too much >> That is the funniest thing I have heard in awhile. LOL, so I should quit thinking eh?

<< I bought a duron 600 and can run it at 900+ with just the retail heat sink/fan. >> That's cool you probably saved some money. I am talking about the overclocking that I hear a lot of people do which requires extra fans/pelitiers/waterblocks though.

I have talked to people on madonion.com, hardforums.com and seen web sites such as this one that claim that you can save money by overclocking. The site pcstats.com says: << Let's be honest, we all want more than what we paid for. Overclocking is the most common method of getting more for your...
