    Cheap graphics cards, 2013

    The one I bought works great and for $6 shipped free you can't go wrong. Nice to have when I need to temporarily put a head on my headless WHS. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ATI-Radeon-X300-64MB-Low-Profile-DVI-PCIe-Video-Card-102A2600501-/111001491366?pt=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&hash=item19d83457a6

    New phone time

    My work gave me a new phone, Motorola RazrM. Loving the blend of size & speed & especially battery life. It's what the HTC Incredible 4g should have been.

    Convert digital audio out from TV to analog for use with wireless headphones

    My TC-P50ST50 only has optical digital audio out. I have an A/V receiver that I use on occasion but in order to watch my stuff streamed via DLNA (with goes directly to my TV via ethernet) I would have to send the signal from the TV back to the AVR via an HDMI Audio Return Channel. I could do...

    You audio people out there... I stream HD content from my WHS (using Serviio) to my TV via DNLA with a variety of audio formats. I know to use my Sennheiser wireless headphones I have to convert the digital audio out from the TV to analog for the headphones. I've read that some converters...

    Howdy- Just wanted to say 'THANKS' to Doug and all who keep SF going. SF has been going for well over 10 years now! It seems like just yesterday that Doug and I were ICQ'ing about him starting it after the SR crash. As my life and associated priorities have changed over time I have not had...

    Metro Detroit: CoolerMaster Cosmos 1000 $70

    $70 OBO for anyone local. It is really in excellent shape. A couple little scuffs at the front upper LH corner. I found the mesh for the top bay (not shown in pictures). Stereodude, I think, is the only one who might be interested...

    So what's the verdict among you enthusiasts? Are you choosing to run Win8 (maybe with Start8) are just sticking to Win7? I have a new i5 build I will be starting and can't decide what to do.

    Don't use WD40 to lube hinges. It is actually a penetrating solvent and will dry out while removing whatever lube is there. This is a cause for customer complaints on creaky door hinges but they don't realize that they are actually causing the problem. Use white lithium grease.

    2013 Model Year IIHS Ratings

    We strive to perform well on all safety tests while at the same time balancing cost, mass, performance, styling and fuel efficiency. We have been talking about this test at work for quite a while now so I would not be surprised if ATS does well, since it's brand new. From what I've heard...

    2013 Model Year IIHS Ratings

    No test is that hard to pass when designed for up front. It just so happens that this is a load case that drives vehicle structure that isn't used for much else. Soon all cars will do well on it, when a re-designed model comes out. But the current ones that do well on it are just lucky except...

    2013 Model Year IIHS Ratings

    I assume that's based on your extensive knowledge of body design and the single rating letter you from one vehicle? As I stated, If the car is designed to be able to deflect the energy it's easier, but most vehicles aren't designed to do that for such a shallow test as this. At this time, if...

    I consider the small offset load case, while extreme and difficult to do well in, representative of a lot of accidents where car approaching each other cross over the dividing line and partially collide. It's a test I would want my car to do well in. Pretty soon just about every car on the...

    2013 Model Year IIHS Ratings

    Things will start to get interesting with the small overlap frontal testing. It's devastating. Most cars are not designed to handle it and perform poorly. Most of the ones I have seen do OK do so based on luck, except Volvo. That'll be changing of course.

    Bitfenix Prodigy Build

    Hi Guys- I am thinking about building a system using the Bitfenix Prodigy mini-ITX case. I'm thinking a Z77 motherboard with a i3570k CPU. Do you guys have any experience or recommendations when using this case? Thanks, Clocker

    Replacement for PeerBlock?

    I use the client provided by newshosting.com. Allow me to just type in what I'm looking for and it finds it and all parts in the appropriate group for me...downloads, repairs, extracts, and then deletes all the parts on it's own. Seems pretty good but I have no experience using anything else...

    Replacement for PeerBlock?

    I'm on Comcast. They had a 250GB limit in my area but it was 'suspended' a while ago. So you might want to double check your provider's rules. Btw, anyone can get Comcast 'Business Class' for a slight premium and they have no data caps.

    I just watched End of Watch. Excellent movie. Sad in many spots throughout but very good. Somewhat hard to watch since both my brother-in-laws are police officers. Tough at the end.

    E3300 with new/unused Intel heatsink & fan

    I have an E3300 with unused Intel HS/F on eBay right now. If someone here has any interest before it sells on eBay, I'll cancel the auction and sell it for $25 shipped in the USA. It does 3.3-3.4 ghz at default motherboard settings in my cheap ga-g31m-es2l motherboard which I think just hit...

    I believe the bouys have acceleromiters inside them and then the acceleration data can be integrated twice to calculate displacement. Makes me wonder how often these things need to be calibrated to be accurate.

    Turns out the psu is actually 80plus certified. Based on the spcr review I should be getting between 78-83% efficiency depending on my load case. Doubt buying a new PSU makes much $en$e.

    I just upgraded my WHS box from an E3300 CPU overclocked @ 3.35Ghz to C2Q Q6600 CPU overclocked 3.1Ghz to improve encoding performance. I have no video card, it is onboard G31. With 4 drives at idle it uses 83W. At full load it is 184W. I have a Corsair 400W builders edition PSU, several...

    WTB: S775 Quad Core

    I picked up a 6600 SLACR on eBay for cheap. If anyone wants to take my e3300 that does over 3Ghz (on stock voltage off) my hands let me know. This is in a cheap GA-G31M-es2l motherboard.

    B3's are known not to OC as well as the G0 chips. If I do this I at least want to get a decent OC to make it worth the effort. Let me see if I can find one of those. Thanks for the opportunity I will get back with ya.

    WTB: S775 Quad Core

    Also, if you know the stepping/revision of the chip that'd be good info to have. I know that is asking a lot though....unless the cpu is already in a system. I think the revision numbers are printed on the chip but not sure about stepping.

    WTB: S775 Quad Core

    I'm very familiar with the potential of the chip, the chip in my desktop machine is a Q9550 overclocked to 3.4Ghz. Was just wondering if this particular Q6600 was a dud or not. My 9550 is about 2x as fast as the E3300 @ 3.4Ghz...which I presume is almost exclusively due to the added two cores.

    WTB: S775 Quad Core

    Any idea how it clocks? What would you be looking to sell it for? Want to make sure it is a pretty good step up from the 3.4Ghz e3300. Thanks to you I found out about that nice clocker. Thanks! Clocker

    WTB: S775 Quad Core
