    Headphone Hair

    At first I was apprehensive about doing it but it looks good. I guess it also helps that my melon's got a good shape to it. I started doing it to combat receding hairline actually, once I figured out the hair is still growing there just not filling out I realized it looks better with the whole...

    Paypal.

    Paypal's been good to me but I mentioned in the thread about the Megaupload shutdown that Filesonic still pulled funds from my account after I canceled the subscription. That has made me think about how if Paypal didn't honour my dispute it would have basically been like money stolen from my...

    Custom Body, Glove, Knife and Gun Skins

    i was really bummed when TD servers stopped allowing gun/glove skins. i know it's just aesthetics but the game is old as methuselah and hi-poly models really make it a lot better to play, especially because the talent of the people making the models and skins is just insane. there's a gun...

    Overgrowth

    yeah i like how it looks a lot but i don't understand why the dev is pushing so much emphasis on development tools. is this supposed to be nothing more than a foundation for mods or something? either way, the engine looks dope. i love vertical exploration

    The time has come... for Win7

    Aight so I landed a free copy (legit) of Win 7 Pro 64 bit and I figure it's finally time to upgrade from venerable ol XP Pro x86. Gonna be loading it onto a fresh new 60GB SSD with Ubuntu so the two questions I have are: first, just how big is this mofo with updates? The ISO with SP1 weighs...

    The Overclocker's Thread

    Always run your memory at what the manufacturer spec sheet recommends. Usually mobos will just run it at JEDEC standards so do a google query for your type of memory, find the spec sheet on the manufacturer's website, and dial it in to those voltages. When you're having RAM issues, typically...

    The Overclocker's Thread

    it underclocks and undervolts the CPU automatically when completely idle and switches back to full power as soon as the CPU gets new work. It's pretty awesome if you're in the habit of leaving your PC idle randomly but it doesn't play well with high overclocks

    The Overclocker's Thread

    RealTemp > speedfan. What exactly do you mean by fan control program? Typically, fans that you can change the speed of on the fly have a 4th wire for pulse-width modulation. The only means of altering the speed of a 3-wire fan is to change the voltage.

    The Overclocker's Thread

    You can still boost your performance a LOT by increasing FSB to 440-466MHz and dropping the CPU multi to keep the same speed/heat. FSB manages the communication between CPU and RAM so the faster that runs, the more performance you'll have at the same CPU frequency. TBH I think now would be...

    Doing my first build, Want someone to double check parts

    Zalman slices the fins thin as razor blades for better thermal transfer. The fins get saturated with heat quickly and pass it off easily. It's also lighter than most competing aluminium heatsinks and takes up less space. There's a reason they barely changed the design since the 9500, it's...
