I cut my meat up one piece at a time, and when I am eating it, I usually have a monologue that finishes with "ignorance is bliss".

As equally as it is about cooling for computers, not for humans.
In any case, a "split AC" system is probably what is otherwise known as a packaged terminal air conditioner. In Australia, we generally use the term "split system AC", in order to differentiate between it fully ducted or unitary...
It ought to be an option in your BIOS, such as 'HDD Boot Sequence" or something similar. How to navigate through your BIOS, though, depends on the brand/etc of your motherboard.
The i7 930 should be out soon.
In Australia smaller sellers have already broken the release date (which is today from where I type this).
I plan to get one when I get a new system in a month or so.
I think most reviewers did their reviews for the original (non "A") boards without USB 3 or SATA 6gbps. So now they couldn't be bothered to do it for the new variants.
Yeah, but who knows what the reliability of the average SSD, or in this case a "mainstream" Intel SSD, compared to an average HDD.
If SSD's are an order of magnitude more reliable, than even I will RAID away (in the future when they are better value for money). If they are about the same or...
Also it would appear that the GA-X58A-UD5 has been quietly release within the past week or so too. http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ProductID=3304
Actually, now I don't know if they plan to make the X58A-UD4P, as their news release doesn't mention it.

At least the UD5 has 2 ethernet ports - which I will probably only ever use 1, and 2 more SATA 3Gbps ports though...
I am planning on upgrading my system in a few months, and was deciding between S1156 and S1366.
I want to go with a S1366 i7, as it will cost and extra ~$160 AUD for the processor, RAM, and MOBO over S1156.
I will try to wait for the i7 930, as that will be the same clock speed as and i7...
Actually the plasma in plasma tv's is a mixture of 2 "gases", neon and xenon, except that plasmas are not gases they are plasmas; the 4th state of matter (and universally most predominant). When a gas gets heated enough to separate its electrons from it, it then ceases being a gas and becomes a...
Pluto, the dwarf planet, does not travel perfectly parallel with the otehr "real" planets.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pluto#Orbit
Also, if the planets where travelling every which-way, eventually they would neutralize (I think), after trillions of years, or when the sun explodes/engulfs...
My physics teacher said it would be instantaneous.
However, wiki says otherwise;
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_wave
(The waves will spread out through the Universe at the speed of light, never stopping or slowing down.)
I have a Scythe Ninja with one of these on it;

I could ghetto attatch a delta 220cfm fan on it if I wanted too...
I'm not sure if you can control all processes as even Windows Task Manager won't allow me to set the affinities of certain tasks - mainly Windows backgound tasks like svchost.
One copy of svchost running takes 17-21 megs of RAM and has 75 threads.
If the task manager can't do it then I...
Well the start affinity program I can't seem to get working.
The THG one I can, but it only allows you to change applications, not background tasks. However it does allow you to save profiles, but I am yet to use that function.
Windows task manager does allow you to change the affinity of...
I'll search that out and compare it.
Yeah its linked to in that other thread.
Bingo, thanks.
There is a couple listed in page 2 of that other thread, I don't know if they are still online. I will have to try them out.
What I mean is a small program that can be run in the background that either starts at boot or is manually loaded that remembers what affinities you want assigned to what program, so you can dump most or all processes to one core.
I remember a topic where some dude dumped all windows and background tasks to one core of a dual core system and ran a single threaded game on its own. He attained gains of up to 15% or 20% IIRC.
I, for the life of me cannot find that topic, but someone linked a program that sets and most...
I have a mass of 70Kg, which translates to 686 Newtons (if my physics memory has not failed me; F=MA and in the case of weight F=Mg).
So at 3g obviously this is 2058 Newtons, or equivalent to carrying another 140Kg on me.
That is the same as someone with a mass of 154lbs carrying an extra...
Wasn't it some kind of metallic alloy that was super cooled to form the crystal structure some fancy way.
They said they have to find suitable alloy mixes that allow for this to happen, the only one thus fr was like >50% platinum IIRC.
Here I was thinking that this phenomenon was just an Australian thing.
Now I am glad and worried at the same time to see it happens in America too.
I figured it was the computer stores - over here we don't have any large chains (yet), small chains and single stores always seem to have the...
That or the heatsink became unstuck somehow.
That seems unlikely, but 112 celcius? Sheesh.
As for heatsink and fan, I'd say get either a XP90c or XP120 with a high CFM fan. I use this http://www.thermaltake.com/dcfans/led/bluesmart.htm on my XP120 with the speed controller. It can keep...
I bent the pins on one of my socket 478 cpu's (either the northwood or prescott, can't remember) and bent them back mostly straight. Then very carefully put the CPU in the socket and the socket straightened them out perfectly.
I am going to use some AS5 (is that sticky or not?) to attatch a thermal probe to the side of my CPU's inbuilt heatspreader, the A64's have one don't they?
Yeah I say an article that had it underneath, taped to the bottom.
That's good and all but they had to dremel out a line in the soket on the motherboard. To hell with that.
Do you think this will be accurate? I have never installed a CPU before, but I will soon, I was wondering if I would be able to attacth a temp probe to the side of the CPU (The side of the heat spreader with tape holding it), this should not affect cooling or anything.
Would this give...
