  1. I would purchase 25m instead of 20 just to be safe on going under, over and around things
  2. it is really unrealistic (for what I pay). I just got luck at that moment I guess. Maybe they were testing something, I clicked on speedtest on right time It should be around 25-40 mb/s maximum (I guess)
  3. I don't think I have this fast download speed but somehow test resulted like this edit: tested again, and result is even more weird
  4. Access all of the operating system's control panels from within a single folder. http://news.cnet.com/8301-13860_3-10423985-56.html
  5. It is just my personal opinion. Hopefully other techies in the forum will share their opinions too. Than you will have an easier decision. WD Black series are working great with their 32mb caches. Even blue series are more than enough for most users. I was able to restore data from hdds, but I never able to recover anything from raid 0 configured harddrives. As long as you have your backup periodically, it shouldn't be a huge issue but still I like to be secure with my data.
  6. I don't believe and trust any raid configurations if the raid card is not server level quality. Raid 0 is too risky for a performance difference. If one of the hdd fails, you loose everything. I have same hdd like you have (WD Black 640gb) and I never felt it is running behind on any application or a game. It is fast enough for any applications I used so far. But I love raid 5 capabilities on servers.
  7. If you have a lazy friend, or who don't want a take the responsibility of pet ownership, here is the gift for them USB Pet Rock! http://www.usbpetrock.net
  8. I have a lian-li case with sliding motherboard tray. Installation is very easy on any motherboard (I upgrade very often)
  9. kind of like this one but it is very pricey http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16820227498 just for the operating system partition this has the best price/performance http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16820609392
  10. After your topic's inspiration , I started to read more about SSD drives and find out read/write speeds are very various. On newegg it shows each speeds and make sure you get the faster one. it will make huge difference. And Dane-Elec brand wasn't the best one out there. Read speed is good enough but write speed is slower than most of them.
  11. I got a newegg.com coupon code for SSD drive. Not sure if it is a good brand or not. Never used SSD yet. http://img38.imageshack.us/I/screenshot003lp.jpg/ I think this code is good for next 10 days or so.

    Exactly They speculate people something to believe or talk about for a long time, and while everyone is busy talking about it, politicians robs the people
  13. googled it http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-repli...cfm/484032.html
  14. browser favorites outlook and/or address book (if you are using it)
  15. Processor you selected is definitely not worth for the money right now. If I were you I go with http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16819115214 Only difference is operating Frequency (2.8GHz vs 2.93GHz). It is half the price. Get a better motherboard or graphic card instead. edit: just saw the lga1366 and lga1156 difference. but is it really worth it?
  16. MFT = Master File table Most defrag programs wont touch this files and they stay exactly where they are (even if they are middle of everything). Good to be able to move it at least once to keep them together (they are usually created all one section but ..).
  17. I am using Avira AntiVir Personal and quite happy with it.
  18. than 9800 gt it is. Not many options for the low profile. When the chip gets stronger, cooling become a problem on low profile GPUs.
  19. Not set on these as a brand. It just happens to be at bestbuy where I live. The gts 250 is about $189 and the 9800 about $150. I want to get a good card under $200 that in 2 months time I don't want to be saying " dang I wish I would have bought XXX" I don't remember when I was shopping in bestbuy last time buy it online and save tons of money. I recommend newegg.com you could find decent card under $200 and you don't need to pay tax for it, and most cases it is free shipping. check this table for comparing graphic cards http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/best-g...ard,2118-7.html 4870 prices from newegg http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList....archResult=True
  20. http://ninite.com I didn't try it but it is look fun. Use it with your own risk.
  21. I am with Furian67 on this. I am planning to do it in some point. I am also not planning to add that much meat between the layers. With little bit of adjustment I think it will turn out delicious. Now I need to find a good time to call some friends to come over (to watch a game or something). I know I can not handle that beast alone.
  22. Found this recipe photos on the dark corners of the web. http://apina.biz/21595.jpg
  23. probably one slides to the left and the other one to the right. Will wait and see youtube videos I guess.
