    How many teenagers have we, in OT?

    *Raises hand I was surprised to find that most of the people here are older than 25, or so.

    Spread spectrum

    I was wondering if spread spectrum needs to be enabled when there's only one computer in my house, and therefore, no other machine to cause interference to. The only reason why I'm asking, is that I just want to see 3700MHz reported, rather than ~3696Mhz. :P Correct me if I'm wrong, but SS...

    "The GTX 680 was supposed to be the GTX 660"

    People, please stop saying this. This is completely unfounded, and almost seems like trolling, at times. nVidia simply switched to a small-die tactic, like AMD's. If you have evidence that proves otherwise, please speak up. (And by "evidence", I don't mean "But, but, but, teh die size!!!")

    Will GPU/high-performance RAM ever use FCBGA packaging?

    Do any of you think that we will eventually see FCBGA being used as the prevalent package for our GPU's RAM? It makes sense to me, considering how much cooling is needed for them, nowadays. (Flip-chip BGA means that the die is exposed, rather than covered-up by plastic)

    At what age do you consider women to have hit their peak attractiveness?

    I would have to say 30-35, for most women. Of course, this doesn't ring true for all, but I'm just speaking generally.

    Where to get the cheapest soy protein isolate?

    I'm currently using EAS soy protein, which I can get a 590G canister of (280G Protein) for $9.88 at Wal-Mart. (I haven't spotted any crazies there, yet. But, you always roll the dice when you enter. D:) Does anyone know of a cheaper alternative than this?

    YAMCT - Yet another morning crew thread.

    Cleanup crew, report! So what is on the agenda today of those of your who are on ATOT this early? I am probably going down to White Marsh to help my grandma get rid of some brush around her yard.

    A highly recommended blog: NwAvGuy

    http://nwavguy.blogspot.com/ The blog is run by an Electrical Engineer who tests and designs audio equipment such as MP3 players, USB DACs, headphone amps, etc in an objective fashion, IE: He tunes his design with an audio analyser, rather than by-ear. (He hasn't designed an MP3 player, but he...

    Is MIPS dying?

    Outside of routers and switches, I don't think I've seen a MIPS CPU in a long time. Do you guys think they will all eventually be replaced with ARM CPUs?

    A question regarding downloading PC games

    London schools to ban making best friends

    Is it worth it to CF a 4850?

    I currently have a 512-MB 4850, and I'm thinking of picking up another one for $35, but I was wondering if I'd be hitting a VRAM wall at 1440*900. Would it be worth it, or would the performance difference be negligible?

    Why won't they just let this die? (Yet another American Pie film)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GY4zADtqNXY IMO, they should have stopped making the American Pie films after the third one. I guess the cash cow hasn't been completely milked dry, yet. :(

    Why not put the ROPs on the monitor?

    I woke up this morning and had a brainstorm. Why not put the ROPs on the monitor? You always hear about graphics cards not having enough ROPs, and based on my very basic understanding of them, you don't need as many ROPs at lower resolutions. So, why not put them on the monitor so you only have...

    Samsung Fascinate Recommended ROMs

    I recently put CM7.1 on my fascinate, and it corrupts my memory card about two times a day, requiring me to reformat it most of the time. Can someone recommend me a good custom firmware that isn't buggy? If not, I'm going back to stock. Furthermore, is it possible to allocate more of the...

    Neat old board I discovered today

    http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.asp?Model=939Dual-VSTA The Asrock 939Dual-VSTA is a Socket 939 motherboard, and has both an AGP and PCI-E slot. Which is kind of neat, but isn't unheard of. What really makes this board interesting to me is that top expansion slot, to which you can attach a card...

    What's the "best" display in the $130-140 range?

    Minimum Requirements: 1920*1080, 60Hz refresh rate, DVI input (LED lighting would be preferred, but it's not a requirement) I'll be using it for general computer use and gaming. (Higher resolution is more important to me than faster pixel response times) Are these any good? Which one is the...

    Post your 2xxxk 4GHz voltages

    The title pretty much explains the thread. Post the required voltage for you to reach 4GHz with your 2500k/2550k/2600k/2700k. My chip: 2500k, 1.2v on an MSI P67A-G43. (1.175v, 1.185v turned out to be unstable)

    Yet another Goodwill finds thread

    A Few days ago, someone from my church gave me a set of Optimus STS-200 speakers that I didn't have a proper amp for. The day after I had received them, I went to Goodwill and found a Kenwood KR-V7070 for $12. It had a big dent in it, but I smoothed it out a bit with my hammer. (Clarkson style)...

    Will there be standalone Windows Phone PMPs?

    I was disappointed to hear that Microsoft was discontinuing the Zune players, and I am wondering if anyone will step up to the plate and make a phone-less Zune replacement. Personally, I don't think that anyone will, but I wanted to hear what AT thought about it.
