  1. So Verizon locked down the One M8 harder than Alcatraz. You cannot root it, as it is bootlocked out of the box by the worlds best phone carrier, so much so, so that you can't even use HTC's own unlocking tool to unlock it. I found this post - http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-one/general/root-root-method-bl-unlock-5-0-x-ota-t3122099 Would this be viable? Ive rooted phones before, should I do it? Thoughts?
  2. Haven't been here in like several months, BUT I thought you guys would enjoy this. Its 77$ at the next drop, and 75$ at the final. I know its not an amazing deal, but I still figured its better than not knowing.
  3. i did, but came up empty. srry bud. mobile site isnt the greatest, no need for the salt
  4. I just got an email from vessel about an android beta already on the play store, and thought I'd share it. it's about time... Personally, I love that they're open to suggestions, and hopefully this will be much better than the site (Which still doesn't support middle click ) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vessel.android(play store)
  5. A quick google search shows it has 5 eggs on newegg with 1,514 reviews ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824001096), so its doing something right. OOO and according to the newegg page, it is vista certified, so you're golden.
  6. Looks fine. I would get a 212 EVO instead as my cooler tho
  7. PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant Motherboard: MSI H81M-P33 Micro ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($63.00 @ Centre Com) Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($78.00 @ IJK) Storage: Kingston Fury 120GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($78.00 @ Centre Com) Case: Fractal Design Core 1100 MicroATX Mini Tower Case ($58.00 @ CPL Online) Power Supply: EVGA 500W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($72.00 @ CPL Online) Total: $349.00 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2015-06-05 22:27 AEST+1000 1 stick of 8GB for a later upgrade Threw an SSD in there.
  8. Sonething ATX. An ATX Mid-Tower ought to be fine. I would get maybe a Enthoo Pro, or anything by Fractal Design.
  9. A fan or two wont hurt, but 9 is overkill (imho, the sound tradeoff isnt worth it when compared to the maybe 1C temp difference). Quick question/suggestion about the build, if you're going for a 'k' sku CPU, why not get an aftermarket cooler? Even something cheap like a 212 EVO would give a world of overclocking difference.
  10. I would get the 240 gb KyperX Fury http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00KW3MT7W/?tag=pcp0f-21
  11. It doesnt matter what you do, its all bullshit and those 'spirits' arent real. Source:
  12. I would try to find an R9-280 for cheap.
