  1. You obviously completely missed my post above It's just made to look fancy, in all reality it is just an existing library with at most 10 lines of modification... Cool design but not very complex.
  2. Enable RAID in bios Reboot into the RAID Config Add both to a RAID cluser Profit? Also, why are you using RAID 0? There is no good reason I can think of to use it on large mechanical drives in a consumer system...
  3. The funny thing is that it is just made to look fancy. They are using Wordpress as a CMS and then editing it from there. The actual background of the site is just a youtube video: The overlay looks like a modified version of this: http://codepen.io/koca/pen/eNJVKQ (Try changing the Value and the colors in the JS) IMO this one is cooler... http://codepen.io/technovore/pen/aOdGjY ------- Here is a bunch of similar libraries to those used on the site: http://codepen.io/ ------- The majority of client sided tasks online can be found easily, if you are curious in the future the only thing I used was View Source and Ctrl + F. Once opened it was a straight forward path to how it was done. Hope this helps.
  4. Another very important question is what hardware will you be using? The Dark Rock 3 should be able to keep any processor that isn't heavily overclocked relatively cool I would think.
  5. That was my thought too... I have a 7970 running in a PCI gen 3 4x slot with no performance loss vs the 8x slot above it. (I moved it for cooling purposes) I wonder if the same will hold true with the 970s
  6. You want to go from a $60 CPU to a server grade solution? I don't know if you are trolling or just inexperienced. The Xeons that are unlocked are generally hard to get a hold of and expensive. Get like an i5 and call it a day. The only thing you would benefit from a dual Xeon solution would be the EPeen.
  7. About now is when you are really happy you bought a board with dual bios. I would let it sit for another 5 minutes or so then reset it, if it doesn't boot flip the physical switch on the motherboard let it boot and flip it back and try flashing again.
  8. I think the best method to answer your question is to expand upon raid. RAID 0 strips information across drives, if any of them get corrupted your whole cluster is toast RAID 1 mirrors all information on a drive to other drives, this allows all but one drive to be corrupted without the destroying the data. (theoretically anyway) RAID 10 just combines these so if one drive gets corrupted that cluster is toast but since the cluster is mirrored you are still fine. IMO if you are running a 4 drive setup you're better off with RAID5/6
  9. You probably won't notice it Granted if I had an open PCI slot in my rig and a larger power supply I might do it too :lol:
  10. I understood what you were asking I would still encourage you just to use the 970 but oh well
  11. You cannot SLI them but you should be able to run them side by side. Hell I've ran 5870s with 480s, 480s with 560tis, 6970s with 560tis.... I think your setup will work but the only way to truly know is to give it a shot.
  12. Just pick something you like and go with it. Python is pretty high level and easy to work with for beginners. To be completely honest, most languages are pretty similar. Most recently I've been doing a lot of .NET programming so C# has been my goto. Prior to that I did a lot of Java, PHP and C++. I would avoid C for now as it can be a little trickier to work with than say Python.
  13. I'm not sure this is 100% correct. I have ran set ups similar to the one you are describing in the past without any issues. Main monitor on one card, other monitors on another. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Granted, I would probably just run all the monitors on the 970 assuming it has enough outputs...
  14. I would just use vinyl for both. I've painted HDDs and ODDs in the past but it is near impossible to go back. A decent vinyl wrap will look just as good if not better assuming you can still mount it in your case correctly.
  15. Flip it upside down and let it dry out for a couple days. The moisture is probably shorting the switches. Since it is still registering input hopefully nothing has been fried.
  16. I've used a deathadder since 2007 and I'm currently on my third. I have tried to upgrade twice in the past and never liked other mice so I keep going back to the deathadder. With that said, as soon as this one dies I will be switching to one of the following: Logitech G502 (I've had the pleasure of using it multiple times and even though I don't play shooters it is still in my top 2) Mionix Avior (I personally consider this a better version of the deathadder) Not sure if that helps you but in short: having a button/feature you don't use is never a bad thing as long as it doesn't get in the way.
  17. The timings all have to be the same most of the time. (motherboard dependent with only the flagships/newer supporting multiple timings) With that said, CL7 ram is pretty rare these days as most favor speed over tight timings. I would either buy a cl9 set and go missmatched. (your current ram will run slightly slower) Or I would buy a 16gb kit and sell your old ram.

    Physical audio mixer

    I grabbed this mixer 2 drops ago on massdrop for ~$25 It only has two separate sources but for the price I am very happy with it. I use it to mix my computer and game audio. Doesn't exactly fit your needs but is a fairly cheap alternative.
  19. This,unless your room temp is <18 c. Your temps are average and you should be more concerned with your load temps than idle.
  20. My thoughts too, this was even talked about on either the WAN show or the TEK cannot remember
  21. Thank you for the information Art, Even in worse case scenario once it is compiled it will perform exactly the same as it would if you smashed things down yourself. Unless it is an interpreted language the end product will be exactly the same and even then you don't use interpreted languages when performance is the goal. --------------------------- Somewhat related, if you did it in a loop the compiler only had to optimize it once. If you truly wanted to test it you would have to write it out or compile it with the flag that expands loops.
  22. Since no one has really successfully answered this question I will do it. Yes the compiler will optimize the code, It is known as Constant Folding. How you program it is personal preference. The performance is negligible when it is processed through the parser. (It will create one fewer node) If you follow the holy bible of programming(Code Complete by McConnell) It is better to write it out as the code is generally easier to follow. In all honesty, absolutely no one cares about seconds saved during compiling. It is more important to make the code readable than it is to compile quickly.
  23. Correct, sorry forgot it's not a very common abbreviation.
  24. Wired is preferred, if not I would go EOP before I would do strictly Wifi
