El Bejelando

Hey El Bejelando,   Depends on how much space you'll need for you school work, 120GB could not be enough. I'd advise you to leave around 30GB for your OS and, since SSDs need 12%-15% free space for caching for optimal performance, that would be another 18GB and you will be left with about 72GB of usable space. You could get an external drive to store your larger data or simply go with a larger SSD. Depends on how much space will your school work take up.   Another option that I could suggest checking out is WD Black2. It's a dual drive that combines 120GB SSD with 1TB HDD all in one 2.5" form factor. You can operate with it as if you have two separate drives, having 120GB for your OS and more demanding applications and 1TB for all your other data. Here's a link if you decide to check it out: http://products.wdc.com/support/kb.ashx?id=XEWVsf   Captain_WD.

Hello dear Linus lover,
 
I understand your issue, you silly cunt. I would advise you to boot into Windows first, second go to control panel and make sure your headphones are working, then go to driver manager>sound manager and make sure your drivers are up to date,
then follow this video 
 
 
I hope it was a frightful help, you delightful idiot.

I have a 24" 1920x1200 monitor, and I think it is perfect. The pixel density is perfect. btw 1080p is fine aswell, do notteth worry child

"Below we bring you some news from AU Optronics about some of their forthcoming panels. Surely of most interest is a new 27" panel (M270DAN02.3) currently in development which will be based on AUO's AHVA panel technology, equivalent to LG.Display's IPS and with very similar performance characteristics. This is a 27" panel with a 2560 x 1440 resolution, 1000:1 contrast ratio, 350 cd/m2 brightness, sRGB gamut and 178/178 viewing angles. Nothing special you might think - wrong! This will be the first IPS-type panel to natively support 144Hz refresh rate, something buyers have been crying out for for a long time! 144Hz AHVA and 2560 x 1440 resolution, we can't wait!
 
In other areas and in the 27" space AU Optronics are also set to start production on their AHVA (IPS-type) 3840 x 2160 resolution 4k panels. The M270QAN01.1 panel with an sRGB colour gamut will go into production in October while the Adobe RGB version, the M270QAN01.2 will go into production in Q4 of 2014.
Also in 27" size there are some new 2560 x 1440 AHVA (IPS-type) panels coming soon. The M270DAN02.0 with sRGB gamut and the M270DAN02.1 with Adobe RGB gamut go into production in October and December respectively. There is also the M270DAN02.2, M270DAN02.3 and M270DAN02.5 going into production in September with sRGB gamuts. The M270DAN02.3 is perhaps the most interesting as this is the 144Hz capable AHVA panel we already discussed.
Still sticking with 27" sized panels for a moment, we already know about the M270Q002 V0 which was used with great success in the Asus ROG Swift PG278Q. This was the first 2560 x 1440 TN Film panel seen on the market and is manufactured by AU Optronics. AUO also have the new M270DTN01.1 in production now which offers a 2560 x 1440 TN Film panel although it doesn't list 144Hz refresh rate as a feature so perhaps this is a standard 60Hz only equivalent.
Not forgetting their trusty old AMVA (VA type) panels they also have the new M270HVN02.3 planned for October production. This is a 27" panel with 1920 x 1080 resolution and 3000:1 contrast ratio. Still no sign of any 27" AMVA panels with 2560 x 1440 resolution we're afraid. There's also the 21.5" sized T215HVN01.1 AMVA panel which goes into production in October to look out for."

I have no idea where you heard that. They're fantastic HDD's. 

Like someone above said, do the paperclip test on your PSU.
Unplug everything from your PSU (mobo, GPU, HDD, ECT.) and UNPLUG IT.
After that, flick the switch on the back into the OFF position and grab a paperclip.
Grab the 24pin connector and look for the one green wire.
On either side of that green wire there will be a black wire, either one will work.
Now use the paperclip to bridge the connection from the green wire to one of the black wires.
Put the 24 pin down, plug the power back in and flick the switch on.
if the fan spins up and then shuts down, or doesnt spin at all, the PSU is dead.
If the fan spins up and stays on, you are looking at another part. Likely the motherboard.
Make sure when you take the paperclip out, the PSU is off.

(I do not take responsibility for you if you fuck this up and hurt yourself. <3)

you have to wait to be approved by ixi or blade, it should be soon anyways

The LN is not flyable right now, you should have another Aurora in you hangar, a ES. That's the one for AC.

Like I said, CHECK YOUR CASE BOX, I found some that worked with my h100i

sp120

All Haswell CPUs in the Celeron, Pentium, i3, i5 and i7 lines as well as the Xeon E3-12** V3 lines are compatible with that board.  YOu can see each one at http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/MAXIMUS_VII_GENE/HelpDesk_CPU/

My friend tried to install a h100 onto his CPU by himself. He screwed one side in all the way before the other side, so the pressure became uneven. He was surprised when his PC didnt POST. He took out the CPU and half the socket pins are bent. So he takes a knife and bends them back, puts the CPU back in and it works........
 
I look forward to the day karma bites him in the ass. :rolleyes:
 
P.S. he overclocked his CPU to 4.6ghz with 1.5 volts... dumb

The Obsidian 450D from Corsair packs a phenomenal amount of liquid cooling support into a relatively small and light enclosure that also happens to be so simple to build in that my wife can do it.

You need to setup the xmp profile on the UEFI BIOS

3 days, don't be such an oxygen thief someone got killed an your only input is to moan that you heard it already.

Sorry man. Nothing we can do about the shipping options

They messed up the copy though. They used their own instead of Linus' and they're closed for the day so we can't fix it.

Which is the better watercooling unit? Im about to build a new PC with a 4670k.

The Kindle Paperwhite and eBook readers in general aren't exactly new but this is my first time really trying to use one, and while there are things I didn't exactly like, the experience won me over.
 

I actually found something a while back that I always thought might interest the more tech-y kinds of people... Hold on, I remember it's somewhere in the F1 website's online store...
 
Ah, here it is. A Pirelli (the company that provides the tyres for Formula 1 racing) backpack... equipped with a solar panel and charging station for all your little do-dads.
 
I always wondered how it'd work. I wonder if Linus would consider doing a review/overview at some point...
