  1. Well, that was random. dlewis23:Heatpipes are quite efficient, the best heatsinks for air use them and they get heat output similiar to cheap/medium watercooling.
  2. The net should be more than just neutral, it should be completely independant of the real world. But that's something which will only happen if the equipment needed is all over the place.
  3. That's the problem with dynamic IPs, innocent people may get the banmessage, when someone else caused the damage. Best option is to reset your modem, that usually results in a new IP. Edit: outposted by shug... sigh.
  4. Here we go again, it's just a matter of ideas vs money, and the underdog as always is the idea. It doesn't win too often.
  5. Better rename it pray-as-you-go computing, as the prices can increase any minute.
  6. Big heatsinks are nice.
  7. Been tried before. It just doesn't work, because people want more and more without paying for it.

  9. My dad must take the crown here, uploading about 250 gig a month, and downloading about the same too. My ISP doesn't seem to care.
  10. Ah, that's better. Guess those rules don't work for admins.
  11. Plenty of people don't patch, so anyone can use an exploit to do actions like this whenever they want. I'm not impressed.
  12. Totally unexpected... There isn't much left on this earth that scares me.
  13. Kinda like my problem. I wonder how he intends the victim to not notice it.
  14. Here we go... AMD is still on DDR, Intel went to DDR2 a while ago. AM2 will ship with DDR2 support. In contrary to popular belief ("it has a 2, it must be better") DDR2 doesn't beat DDR that much. The expected boost from going v2 is about 1 - 5%, as long as DDR2-800 or faster is used. The older version, DDR2-667 is not as fast as normal DDR-400, when comparing timings and speed. It shows that AMD doesn't need the extra bandwidth, at least not until quad cores are around.
  15. It usually equates to less headache when working with CRTs. I get a headache within minutes when running 60 Hz... which is why I run this 19" at 85, and the 17" at 100.
  16. Tsk. Mini-troll. We can be like mini-me and evil docter tho. Just don't hump the laser...
  17. Unless the PSU get really hot, it has no effect on CPU/GPU temps. Safe CPU temp would be <60, preferably <50. Most video cards can handle 70+c, but keep it below 65 for longlasting 3d power.
  18. Think about it, you're running a wireless router, that can handle up to 11 Mbps. Doesn't that make this result rather impossible? Running Norton, web accelerators, other crap that interferes with the speed test? I remember certain Linksys wireless routers also cause problems.
  19. I remember a theory that if a gold atom and a lead atom hit eachother at lightspeed, a black hole would be generated that would gobble up the solar system. Yummy.

    tmp. files

    Those files are the backups, in case Word or the computer crashes and you'd normally lose everything you didn't save. Thus, Word periodically saves, and the timeframe can be changed, somewhere in the settings. Of course, if you have the habit of saving often, this feature might not be needed.

    200 MHZ

    Linux works on any computer. I've had Debian run for a short while on a P1 200 Mhz, but it was really slow with only 32MB ram.
  23. It's only when the processor is under no or just light load.
