    Currently rocking a 32GB Vertex with v1.6 firmware. It is (apparently) about to die. Has anybody had any experience with the SMART reporting of SSDs? Are they accurate? I've read a few forum posts where the drive hits 0 and just restarts over at 100%. But I've never been able to get any...

    Currently I have only one GTX460 1GB OCed to 850/2000 (could probably go higher, but meh). When i build my sandy bridge or s2011 rig in the summer/fall I'm probably going to go with another GTX460 1GB as i only play at 1920x1080 and at that res SLIed 460s seem to equal a 580 +/- 5%. and...

    Google Chrome problems

    I've been having some troubles recently with Google Chrome. It seems that when I open multiple windows at the same time (or very close together), it tries to open all of them at once and it ends up crashing ("oops!

    Timeshifting

    If I have a file with a particularly high bitrate and a large file size, whenever I try to skip around (fast forward, rewind), it stops for a second or two and buffers. But most of my files don't do that, just a few of the really HQ ones. What causes these movies to buffer, and what will fix...
