    Powering 12v TECs on the Cheap

    Like I said before, it is a great idea. Cable clutter is a small price to pay for the better performance. The first post is updated for the new info.

    Powering 12v TECs on the Cheap

    It is not half as cheap, but as long as people get good info, that's all that matters.

    Powering 12v TECs on the Cheap

    That is quite a valid point, but why would you need all of those amps for small pelts? Having a fanned psu would be better than a non fanned one, but either would be fine if positioned correctly. It is a great idea though, as it would make a good solution for an upgrade path.

    Powering 12v TECs on the Cheap

    Usually people power peltier units using PSUs which can get expensive with the more units you have. For those of you looking to build a TEC cooler with a lower cost, here are some options: Corsair CX430 can be bought on sale for ~$15-20 and provides an upgrade path for larger Pelts since it has...

    Grand Theft Auto V

    I upgraded to a 780 lightning from a 660ti, but since I'm also upgrading my mobo/cpu I'm stuck using a Celeron... All 14 of my fps look beautiful though :rolleyes:

    Grand Theft Auto V

    Yeah. There are heists, like 5 total, as well as new weapons, customizations, and cars. Also they added a solid gold jet and heli. Good luck trying to do hiests with random people, it usually doesn't work out. TD;LR: Heists and new crap that doesn't matter

    What are you nerds playing this weekend?

    I'm trying to play GTA V, but since I'm using my backup rig (middle of upgrading) it's not going too well. :( I'm just trying to be a philanthropist.

    Is turntable still being manufacture today?

    I like the newer Pro-Jects myself. They are reasonably inexpensive, for turntables :p , and have good tonearm balance and whatnot. The sound quality's biggest factor is the needle though, and those can get expensive as well.

    Is an old case worth the effort?

    Thanks for the input guys. I kinda felt like keeping it around, but I guess it is time for a new case after all. :(

    Is an old case worth the effort?

    I have an old Gateway G6-333 case that I would like to modify to fit newer components since the original Pent 2 died a few months back. Any suggestions other than the occasional fan? I know I would have to dremel out a spot for the I/O panel, but that's no biggie, plus it has standard ATX...

    ASUS is downgrading me to a GTX 780 on a GTX 780Ti RMA

    I am surprised that Asus's support is this bad. Good thing I didn't buy one of their cards, I feel bad for the guy.

    Coolest Mom EVER!

    It is a shame she didn't even pick a better looking car to replicate from the games :(
