  1. no problem! i'm not sure what on ice cream sandwich makes it do that but i found that fix a while back
  2. On chrome hit menu and check mark request full site
  3. when shopping for an ISP a good thing to remember when looking for consistancy is to look for a consistant 80% no ISP i don't care how good can provide 100% consistancy all the time... 80% is a much more realistic number this guy looks to be on their 50/6 and seems to be getting about 80% of what he's paying for https://testmy.net/quickstats/Asomatoul
  4. in a week or so i might throw one up in the colocrossing datacenter in LA on a 1Gbit port
  5. from the reading i did last night it looks like it will fit however if it were me i'd make sure there were bios upgrades available first because not all motherboards that are AM3 will have an update produced to support AM3+ and you can put an AM3 cpu into an AM2+/AM2 motherboard because the AM3 CPU has a DDR2 controller, on a side note i believe most AM3 CPU's require 95 or more watts so the AM2 motherboard would need to be able to provide enough power i don't believe AM3+ will work on an AM2+/AM2 motherboard though i remember reading there is no backwards compatibility with DDR2 memory on the AM3+ cpu
  6. Appears to be valid but only some motherboards have the capabilities to support AM3+ as I stated before AM3+ does have an extra pin over the AM3 http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socket_AM3#section_1 I probably would want a newer motherboard anyways as the AM3+ supports higher hyper transport link speeds
  7. you would also pay an extra $300 or so dollars
  8. we're just hardcore geeks who have no hope
  9. its a typo on amazon's part i can assure you the 8350 is AM3+
  10. wow that is a very respectable trace from canada to the southern states try a couple more traces one after another and see if hop 14 is where your issue is at jump to 107 from 49 is a pretty big leap and could be where the stuttering is coming from
  11. heres the thing, if your advertised speeds are 10 or 15Mbps your powerboost shouldn't be 30Mbps anyways usually its 5Mbps over your advertised at least from what i've seen, but on a 15Mbps connection or even a 20Mbps connection like it looks like you have i would test with probably 45-50MB as far as the exclusion thing goes C@ble will have to answer that one for you because hes the programmer, by downloading 200MB your seeing the max sustained speed your connection can do which is pretty close to your real world speed but a thing to remember is powerboost is a part of your connection so it always will play a factor in your real world connection there really isn't a huge reason to exclude it since it helps you in real world scenarios you can probably see your sustained speeds by downloading 50-75MB aswell if your wanting to download much smaller sizes
  12. i've suggested this to C@BLE in the past and it is something that i'm very interested in aswell
  13. powerboost technology can make it tricky for testing but thats why especially if you have a fast connection we recommend testing with larger test sizes that way the download speed will normalize after the powerboost. its not neccessarily 10MB-20MB though its usually just a couple seconds maybe like 5 tops
  14. cleaned up your double post. as for the central server i'm seeing normal results here! in excess of my current connections max of 30Mbps i just hit a 31Mbps but you are correct the mirror is showing higher for me infact a bit higher then normal i wonder if the mirror has gzip compression enabled or something
  15. i believe the AM3+ socket type has an extra pin 943 pins vs the AM3 socket 942 pins so from what i'm reading you need an AM3+ compatible motherboard to use it... your old bulldozer cpu should have been AM3+ though so your new CPU should work on the same motherboard especially the more modern revisions of it and after reading the manufacturer's website it shows the motherboard you have picked out does indeed support the newer AM3+ chips so a small breakdown AM3+ cpu's will only work on AM3+ motherboards the newer AM3+ motherboards are backwards compatible for the older AM3 chips the newer AM3+ chips will NOT work on an older AM3 motherboard and yeah you should be able to hit 5GHz pretty easily i'd think... thats probably what i'll be overclocking to after all i've got my phenom II 955 running at a stable 4.1GHz now so why not? ~ Mark
  16. i believe this is the thread your searching for https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/29721-triryan-or-anyone-else-liquid-cooling/?hl=+overclock%20+ninjageek
  17. reason probably is the files are being served from servers within the states and your internet connections route to those streaming sites obviously passes through the same trouble nodes as your connection to the TMN server's the main reason we say real world download speeds is because TMN is hosted in the same datacenter as a majority of websites out there are the network TMN is on is state of the art and if it were having issues more people then just a few isolated people would be seeing it have you tried a traceroute to central.testmy.net ? it might show the bad node along the route you can do this by clicking start > typing cmd in the search box (on windows 7) or clicking run (on windows XP) and typing cmd in then type ' tracert central.testmy.net ' without the quotation marks once that is done paste the results here
  18. since the mirror feature is still in beta i doubt he'll be tracking the results from the mirror like that just yet give him a few days to work the kinks out i should have a couple of east coast servers coming up shortly one with a 1000Mbps line
  19. i have a mid tower with top bottom front side and rear filters and its completely modular it has the hotswap drive rack and tool-less installation for just about everything i ended up going with a Gigabyte 990FX motherboard and by the way solid state drives are far more reliable then standard disk drives i haven't had an issue with mine yet just make sure it has good reviews
  20. i sent you some info for one of my servers to test it out if all goes well i'll throw it up live on my other servers aswell
  21. You are correct that the bandwidth is double but the place you will see that is when loading texture files into the video cards memory its not like your fps in games will more then double I doubt you'd see even 10 fps more and more wattage the better especially if you plan to get bigger video cards someday in the near future
  22. Not necessarily I usually shop by reviews over price I have first hand experience with the corsair h50 but antec is a great brand though one I wouldn't hesitate to buy from if the reviews for the product backed it up I simply meant go with a self contained liquid cooler with a mountable radiator because not only does it work better then your average aftermarket air cooler you will not have to have all that weight on your motherboard and won't have issues with your ram sockets not being usable
  23. I'm with you! I am going to be getting that chip eventually because I have no problem getting a better price per cost ratio then the average Intel fanboy
  24. 3.0 video cards will work fine in a 2.0/2.1 motherboard all that will happen is the cards bandwidth will be limited by the motherboard as a bottleneck if you will I doubt you would even notice the difference though
