    PC Building and Parts Resources

    yeah the overclock doesn't make anywhere near as big a difference as the difference between running a gaming PC compared to something like a laptop with an APU. It barely factors in if you also have a welder in your car hole lol

    PC Building and Parts Resources

    ah fuck i can't resist putting this to the test right now. i'm using LuxMark 2.0 to stress just my nVidia 460 GTX (water-cooled). at stock clocks (975 mV), total power draw of my PC is 333W. after cranking the GPU up to my usual overclock profile, which needs 1087mV to run smooth, the total...

    Going data only?

    Thanks guys, good responses. I actually have a Fido (Rogers) SIM in the phone now just haven't activated it. I looked around at the carriers and basically they fucking ripoffs with the talk & text plans and only Bell seems to even offer a data-only plan. Fido offers data-only only if you buy...

    Going data only?

    ok nerds simmer down now :limphand: ive been using a 2G clamshell for yeaaars and it does email, so i've never had any need for this 3G or 4G nonsense. i was just curious about Android 4.4 and this was the cheapest device i could get it with, might as well hook up the mobile internet so i can...

    Need some relaxation music :)

    would have gotten a better response from me if you bothered mentioning what kind of music you normally listen to or what genres you're receptive to, i mean some people get relaxed listening to turbodiesel motors towing sleds how the fuck am i supposed to guess what you might be feeling?

    Going data only?

    So prices have finally dropped enough on smartphones that i was able to get a slick unit for a c-note but there's not a single talk & text plan out there that isn't complete bullshit. Bell has a contract-free data-only plan that looks perfect and I found a VOIP provider that also handles SMS...

    Chrome Extensions

    tampermonkey. there's a library of scripts to use, most of them just add functionality to YT and Google-related shit, or if you know some JS you can roll your own scripts and hack up your favorite sites. it's really handy if you want to roll your own queries on LAMP sites where the front-end...

    BlackBerry Passport

    this shouldn't be a problem since 4.3 when TRIM support was introduced and 4.4 when the Android runtime with improved garbage collection came along.

    DIY NAS

    yeah a consumer nas box would be better for electricity no doubt, but utils are incl'd in rent for me so i don't care. the thumb drive just stores the OS so it's not a big loss if it dies. i don't really know what i'm doing but it's not a hassle or nething, just putting in some work on it when...

    Issues w/ Bell Fibe?

    lol i have 400GB allowance now, shit is wasted on me :( no worries i realize that you're paying less for the exact same internet service but i've been pretty satisfied with Bell human support over the years and am not interested in finding out for myself whether or not a reseller can be as...

    DIY NAS

    Someone threw out a fully-loaded box a few weeks ago and I snatched it up off the curb. Turns out it's an MDG-style custom build with a Core2 Duo chip (!!!) and decent mobo/RAM specs so I went out to get a PSU (was on sale for $60 total spent on that) and 2 HDDs (not counting this into the...

    Issues w/ Bell Fibe?

    yeah i always get the legit Qc support not the "tech support" for noobs who are too derp to figure out if their device is even on or off. Right now I'm just under $50/mo. for stable 25 down 10 up and there were no additional charges for the modem. TekSavvy is offering the same speed DSL for...
