Looking for insight on what are some of your preferred manufactures of fittings specifically for soft tubing these days. As nice and simple as air cooling is, getting the itch to keep things more quiet again. Sounds like an airfield as soon as I try to crank some high frames on 4k at high...

Anybody around these parts use the terribly named The Tower 500 from Thermaltake? Looking to update my case and this looks like an interesting option that does allow—though slightly compromised—as large as CEB boards according to the manual. Just trying to find some more actual user feedback...

I've had enough issues with G-Hub and know there's another long thread about it so won't hash it out here. Also have issues every time I try to order new key caps for my G810 they are out of stock. So I think I'd rather spend that money toward moving away from Logitech G products. With that...

I acquired a used 2080ti and through a couple hours of Furmark and Unigine Benchmarks it seems stable. Clocks appear to work as they should. I think Fan went up to 60% max and temp hit 88C before seeing clock throttling which appears to be what I should expect with the card based on my limited...

Looking at getting the oldest kid a first cell phone. Verizon has a Kid’s Plan that would only add about $11 after taxes and fees onto what we pay already. Then it comes with other features like up to 20 whitelist only contacts, another GPS tracking feature, etc as opposed to a traditional...

I asked UnknownSouljer the other day his thoughts on if a trash can is still worth it but am curious what the rest of the [H] Apple community thinks as well. Use case is some music editing with hope to improve quality. Second is to start using it for photo management and editing. Third is...

Wanting to replace my Dell U2711 as I’ve really gotten away from any serious color work and anything that I do now is fine if it’s a bit off. It’s also missing some of the more modern amenities. I want to definitely increase my refresh rate. I had to make a decision when I went with this one...

Does anybody have experience with Ubiquiti's UAP-AC-IW , especially in a house? I am thinking about using them in two locations that have existing CAT-5E drops that were meant for phones but have never been used for home phones. Currently only use an Asus N66U as a router and AP. I could get...

I have not done a complete play through of any Zelda games since Ocarina of Time. I have the consoles handy to go through I think every game so I was wondering how would you all do it? In order of release date? Following Nintendo's suggested timeline? Another way I'm not thinking about...

I'm looking to trim back on some of the monthly bills. I took a look at the AT&T Mobile Share plans now that they offer an unlimited data option. We already have U-Verse TV, and not looking to get rid of it anytime soon. It looks like even after FAN discounts, the mobile share will save about...

Anybody know of an easy way to batch convert Apple Lossless files into AAC or MP3? Would be great if it would also keep things organized. Need to put them onto an SD Card for use in the car. Looks like it could take forever trying to do it through iTunes. Everything is currently in a library...

What RRoD fix methods have you guys used around here? My trusty Falcon system finally died after more than 7 years. It hasn't been used for more than a year when my prepaid Live expired and didn't feel like renewing it just to use it for Netflix, etc. So PS3 has been doing that duty in the...

I'm looking for feedback from Surface Pro and Surface Pro 2 users as to whether either device can actually replace the need for separate notebooks and tablets. More specifically, I currently use a 13" MacBook Pro and an iPad Mini for different tasks. I'm definitely not looking for a desktop...

I've tried searching around but have found conflicting information about what I'm proposing to do so I'm wondering if anybody here might have an answer. My router is an Asus N66U and it works fine, and I'm not looking to replace it. What I am wanting to know is can an Airport Express be...

Long story short: dog's tail+wife's drink=Mid '09 13" MBP instantly turned itself off. I only have had time to partially clean it, don't have a tri-wing screwdriver on hand to get the battery out, and my precision screwdrivers aren't getting some of the mainboard screws out either. I'm...

I know this gets asked and I've been reading over this stuff off and on for months. I'm just hoping for a bit of help and insight from others. I'm getting kind of tired of my Logitech G15 v2. There's nothing wrong with it except for low KRO, extra features and buttons I don't need. I'm...

Closed for new thread.

So I'm thinking about pulling out my Corsair HX620 to use whenever I downgrade my system. I just test fitted into a Define R4 and it looks great mounted with the fan intaking from the bottom because the stickers are already placed the right way and the colors will match the build. My AX850 is...

Not as good as the sale the other day but NCIX has more deals on Fractal Design Define R4 with Window. White with Window $79.99 for the next 25 orders (as of 1pm CST) http://us.ncix.com/products/?sku=75047&vpn=FD%2DCA%2DDEF%2DR4%2DWH%2DW&manufacture=Fractal%20Design&promoid=1272 If it...

heatware: thegardentool Edit: I think my ideal solution is going to require an ATX board instead of mATX. I'm located in the Oklahoma City metro area for face-to-face meeting. I'm looking to build a PC for Steam Big Picture Mode and some HTPC duties. Mainly looking for an i5 2500k and...

I know it's not optimal to clone from a traditional hard drive to a SSD, even though that is what I did first go around because I couldn't afford the downtime but I did do a clean install a few months ago. But is it safe to clone from one SSD to another? I'll be moving from an Intel to...

So in the past 2-3 months I've received a lot of Steam friend requests from people I have no idea who they are, they never send a message saying anything about knowing me, etc. I asked a friend and he doesn't get any random requests. Is anybody else getting them? Anybody know a reason why?

I'm wondering if an AMD Radeon HD 7770 will work on an nForce 650i SLI motherboard with a presumed 1.0 PCI-E slot. I have heard there were issues with 2.1 cards on 1.0 motherboards but I can't find anything talking about the 3.0 cards with 1.0 slots. The motherboard in question is from a...

No longer need any of these.

Locked.

Okay so my 580 Classified Ultra was able to 990 MHz on air with stock voltage before I boxed it up waiting to finish my rig. I had a second one that could only do ~950 MHz and I stepped it up and going to sale the 680 when it arrives since I don't want to spend money on another waterblock...

I just put together a new box with a 3930k C2 and the temps seem pretty high. At stock settings, it reports between 32-34C in BIOS. ASUS's temp monitoring software was reporting about the same in Windows 7 at Idle. With 100% load with IntelBurnTest standard it was pegging mid 50s. I'm not...

I'm wondering if there are any 4-tuner ASTC PCI-E cards on the market or if there are any coming? It's one thing that is holding me back from wanting to build an HTPC. I know there is the Ceton InfiniTV card but it's for cablecards and I only use over the air antenna. :(

So I dug out my ancient Dell XPS M140 the other day to pull off some old files that weren't backed up anywhere else. I decided to clean up the hard drive by deleting files and programs I didn't need anymore. I also decided to download and install over 150 Windows updates from 2009, the last...

moved to a new thread.

dead thread. restarted rolled up with some more items.

Are there any 16 port smart/managed switches smaller than the Dell PowerConnect 2816? I'm looking for one to fit into my structured wiring enclosure in the closest and most of them are 1U, which is too large.

Anybody know why the server crashed Friday night when it was full and changing maps? Was it because Loco was owning everybody, including me?

Helping a friend build a desktop. His notebook was great when it came out but it is showing its age now. He usually does most his gaming on an Xbox 360 but does play some PC only games such as ArmA series, some RTS and turn-based strategy games as well. 1) What will you be doing with this PC...

So I've got a Maximus Formula SE that the box went "missing" as well as the socket protector...long story but I think my wife threw out a bunch of "empty boxes" while I was in an extended away from home work-related assignment. What would you guys suggest the best way to get the motherboard...

I sent my D630 to Dell a few months ago to have the GPU replaced and finally had time to try to get it ready to possibly sell. Before I shipped it to Dell I put back in the single SO-DIMM I received with the machine as well as the original HDD just for good measures. I replaced the SO-DIMM...

I ordered this one from Sam's Club website on Saturday. Got impatient waiting to see if it would acutally ship and bought another out of impulse a few days later at Best Buy. Sam's did ship it the next day so it's sitting at home. It's unopened and packaging looks good. Could get pictures...

So several years ago I bought a set of Buffalo Tech Firestix 2x1GB 800s when they were the hot stuff. About 2 years ago the computer stopped POSTing and I tried a single stick of cheap DDR2 I had around and got it to work after all the troubleshooting of everything else. I ended up just...
