  1. WHY DOES NOBODY FUCKING SEED ??!?!?!?!?
  2. I write like a second grader. My little sister who is 6 almost writes as good as me (if not better).
  3. Listening to "Beyond the realms of death" by Judas Priest because there was a guy at school who sang it in a high-pitched opera kind of way. I gotta say, the opera version was alot cooler. The original is also really good, though.
  4. 8:15 - 16:45 (8:15 am - 4:45 pm) is just a too long day for me. Please stop having so much damn time inbetween classes.
  5. Having a laugh over things that I probably shouldnt be laughing so hard about. But when its late, its late.
  6. Fucking Sweet! Toro, motherfucker!
  7. RoRJg0eituc
  8. Im no expert, but Im fairly sure that a 1000 watt will do just fine with that setup.
  9. On the other side of the coin the "I'm gonna play Mario on my Sega, I'm such a geek!" people are also pretty annoying. Both sides are just screaming for attention. Attention whores are some of the worst people on earth. And people that try to impress you....
  10. Cool, I thought you needed HL2. Good thing that its completely free.
  11. Sorry, mate. I just gave it away. Was about to remove the post. My apologies.
  12. So, Ive been reading all this in the thread, and Ive decided to: 1. Get the zalman fan 2. Get the white Alchemy LED 3. Get my card 4. Overclock it 5. ??? 6. Profit My thermal pasting (after many hours of opening my case without breaking it. It was STUCK) seems to be enough. All this is gonna take a while. I havent got the cash for all this, so I shall look for a job. I really want to thank you all for helping me out here. Great advice (as usual). Also, I wish to say that Im sorry for spamming this part of the forum.
  13. If anyone doesnt have HL2, but wants to play black mesa, Ive got a copy on steam which I would be willing to trade or something.
  14. Getting really sick of kids who say: "Im a true gamer!! Fuck CoD! I only play quake and tribes! Real games!! Its like with music, clothes, etc. Why fight the other ones instead of just playing/listening/wearing what you like. Its just so damn stupid. (Most kids I hear just say this so that they wont get hated for what they like). Fucking "have an image and stand by it" generation... (I know this has occured before, but this has gone overboard).
  15. I think amongst those cpu coolers the Zalman or the cooler master. Im gonna have to wait a month to get the cash though. How do I know if the thermal paste is starting to "vanish" ? I am also thinking about installing lights in the computer so that I can see dust etc. Is it complicated ? (I dont trust google, I really dont...) I am also gonna check the Noctua whenever I have the time (To see if its in any local store). Thanks again. You guys sure know your computers..
  16. Celebrating my brother who is turning 21, 22 or 23. And also he took his drivers license today so there is a massive party going on. And because he is leaving for some weeks, I get to use all his stuff! Cooling pad, tv, speakers etc.
  17. F.E.A.R 1 and 2. Great horror nostalgia.
  18. It has for me resulted in me being very antisocial and judgmental against others. Also, very little things can cause me to outright hate a person. Bullying causes alot of psychological stuff.
  19. Im using the stock fan (i5-2500k) my case is: Cooler Master Silencio 550. Ill open up my case and see whats up.. Im not gonna overclock very much, so I dont know if Ill need to get the MSI cards. What cooler does gigabyte cards use ? Also, how does one change the fans on the cpu ? Would the Cooler Master Hyper 412S be a good cpu fan ? Edit: CPU has been at around 80 celsius for a few hours now, nothing special has happened. (no freezing or anything) The cores are around 37c, so I dont know what the hell is going on... If you already haven't, I'd look into getting a second fan for the front of your case to help draw more air in, if not replacing the existing one as well with a fan that can move more air. Also, if you're not using both hard drive cages, I'd remove the top one to clear up additional obstructions to airflow. The voltage tweaks you can do with MSi cards are for extreme overclocks, so you don't need that feature for slight overclocks. The coolers on MSi cards are somewhat similar to the ones on the Asus, so I wouldn't worry about the differences either. Gigabyte cards also use similar designs, although some of their cards use three fans instead of the normal 2, their 7850 uses two fans that are slightly oversized for the PCB. But the temperature difference here, in my opinion, isn't large enough to fret over. For more info on 7850's, check out this link: http://www.anandtech.com/show/5705/amd-radeon-hd-7850-launch-recap . The prices are a bit dated, but the other info there is accurate. That CPU cooler would do just fine compared to others in its class and around its price point. I'm not sure why you'd be getting that high reading for your CPU temperature, though. Maybe that reading is for the CPU cooler and not the actual chip? I know some software also reports temperatures based on readings it gets from the CPU fan itself, which should run warmer than the CPU. As for installing the unit itself, google some tutorials. There are plenty out there for most aftermarket CPU coolers. I have 2 120mm in the front and Ive removed the second harddrive slot. I checked a little more and the cores are around 35-40. I guess its the cooler itself. Ill stick with ASUS if the cooling is enough, no need to overdo it. I really appreciate all the help Ive gotten from you guys, thanks alot! I will go and buy the ASUS card next week and pherhaps another cpu fan. Thanks again!
  20. Going on a "mountain trip" tomorrow with the new class.... Last time I did this it was just... no....
  21. You too, huh ?

  23. I will check those tools out once Im home. Yes it has directcuII, will that be enough with my case fans? Is there any other brand which uses better cooling? Or is ASUS the best? Edit: Here is a pic of my temps: http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/4459/tempsz.png The gpu is really cool, but what the fuck is up with my cpu temperature?! Im gonna have to get a better cpu fan...
  24. Ill try afterburner then. That heatsink seemed a little outdated, will it work for newer cards aswell ? Or is it enough to just put in another case fan blowing straight at the card ? Im not gonna OC THAT much. As for the whole Overclocking: Should I just slowly increase the speed and watch the temps ? (I have never overclocked before, my 560ti was clocked when I got it)
