    Intel G2 160gb questions.

    Looks like a good deal if it was an intel ssd, but a-data, not too sure. Haven't exactly seen a lot of reviews for it, i would do some research and compare it to the other ssds on the market.

    Velociraptor or SSD for OS Drive now???

    Probably won't happen for a long while. So far ssd prices haven't exactly been going down, but it may happen in 2-5 years time. Pricing for a 120gb ssd is about $200 CAD which isn't bad considering it would have cost a lot more in previous generations of ssd. SSD is definitely the better buy...

    Facebook Struggles To Block Underage Users

    The moment they open it to anyone (instead of before, when it was universities and colleges only) was like opening a can of worms. It would have been easier to enforce, as it required the user to have a legitimate email from a university or college.

    Intel I7 920 Vs 970

    I have the 970, its worth it especially if you use it for a lot of encoding work, photoshop, etc a lot faster than the 920/930/950 that I have owned in the past. I put a mild overclock of 4.0ghz with 24gb of Ram.

    i7 920 @ 4.2 Ghz: Stable in some tests, unstable in some other tests

    I would opt for LinX for absolute stability (although it might be overkill according to some posters), plus it finds errors a lot faster than prime 95.

    Windows 7 SP1

    Well, had initial problems with installing Windows 7 Service Pack 1, but it was probably due to me installing IE 9 (RTM) before installing SP1. Did a reimage and SP1 installed perfectly then install IE 9. I'm thankful I made that backup before installing IE 9 (RTM).

    Trouble overclocking i7 970.

    Yep, hoping to get cpu stable first, then working on getting memory at rated speed (as i know it will be a challenge with 24gb and a 4.0ghz cpu overclock).
