    I would not advise using liquid cooling in a server.

    Folding@home also puts a different load on your card than a gaming scenario or traditional 
    stress testing software would, no it wouldn't be any good for checking your oc other than to
    see if your oc would work in f@h. It's also just a very silly thing to do when you have dedicated
    software for this exact purpose that just straight up works better, and won't put unnecessary 
    load on their servers borking wu's.

    Thanks so much! Headphone stand here I come!
    (PS. my current headphone stand is also a 3D printed "wall" mounted (its on the side of my desk, hence the "") thing that is approximately the curvature of a headphone band and it just is the word headphone stretched out.

    BuntzenB got a reaction from SnipingBow in MIR question   
    You have to buy within that time frame. Also yes MIRs do work (they send you a visa card after like a month.)
    Source: ive done a shit tonne of rebates and also if you look at the MIR actual form it says it pretty str8 out http://www.mirhelp.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/BF_PSU_2015_CA.pdf
     
    EDIT: the only concern is if you need to send it in for warrantee and they need the bar code which you sent in. Doesnt usually happen, but to be safe - you should make a photocopy of the bar code when you send in the real one and keep the copy for your records.
     
    EDIT^2: You have to have the rebate form postmarked within 30 days of the purchase I believe.

    I think you could be a bit more aggressive, but be careful as low bitrate DSLR video falls apart fast if pushed TOO far
    Make the shadows tend towards blue, and the highlights / mid tons towards orange - this can really help with the cinematic look,

    So... Recently (last 3 months for so) I have found a PC shop (Well known company) where they throw out old PC parts. I noticed this one day whilst i was out the back of the store.
     
    Anyway it grabbed my interest and I went in and asked the manager of the store about all the components in the bin. He said "Yea, they are to be recycled, and you can go through them and take what you like, just don't make a mess". 
    Anyway, I went out the back and started digging with my trusty magnetic Philips head...
    Holy crap man, What people through away...And the best bit? Its a regular thing... They restock the bin of old PC's every week or so...
    So I have been going back once a week for around 2 months and here is some of the spoils I have found and brought back with me.

    After running more diagnostic tools, and more windows updates, the problem has been revealed.
     
    CBS Manifest is corrupt. 
     
    From here i will still most likely be upgrading to W10 regardless, because DX12.

    Already started making it before I even posted.
     
    The problem is I already did that, and they didn't uninstall. I know there are a few things that can't be uninstalled, any maybe those are two of them.
     
    Also, I decided (ironically considering your glorious Gaben photo) to try uninstalling Steam, and it seems that Stream was causing some issues, as I am now booted into Windows. 
     
    Some other programs are also crashing windows, so I am going to try to revert some Catalyst drivers to older versions, maybe Level 3 program faulty interaction (wording?) is causing some kernel issues. At least I'm booted in, and installing MOAR WINDOWS UPDATES to hopefully fix the broken ones and maybe there is a fix in one of them.

    Unfortunately there were no restore points to go back to for some reason. I find that odd as well, probably should have put that in the OP.
     
    At this point I think I might as well. Despite the fact I don't have a windows 10 key, I'm sure I can find someone with an extra one laying around.
