  1. So if I were to be hiding my PC in a closet anyways I probably wouldn't realize how loud it is. correct? Is it worth saving $10? or should I just bite the $10 for a blower?
  2. Also, is there a drawback in going with a reference design cooler instead of blower style? I've only had a blower so I just don't have experience with reference.
  3. Lots of great feedback, I had completely forgot about going the 480 route. Unfortunately I got a gift from Best Buy and will only get store credit there so I can't shop around for the best card for the price. The good thing is they do price match from Amazon.com, Bhphotovideo.com, Crutchfield.com, Dell.com, HP.com, Newegg.com, and TigerDirect.com. Selection from Best Buy is slim though. They only carry PNY, MSI, and EVGA 1060s and XFX 480. So I have to be selective
  4. Does anyone have any experience with PNY graphics cards? Thinking about getting a 1060 6GB since it's about $50 cheaper here than well known brands like EVGA or MSI. Any input would be helpful!
  5. Looks like a great projector with lots of fun activities available. Would love to show movies/games to my little girls on this!
  6. I'm currently using a $5 dell keyboard until I can save up for an actual gaming keyboard. This would actually be a decent keyboard and would be so much nicer than my current one
  7. So I have been folding on my mac mini for a week or two now and I have had a WU stuck between 0 and 99% for a couple of days. I have tried to restart my computer, pause and restart the WU, delete F@H and reinstall and I can't seem to find where to delete the WU to start a new one. Any help would be great!

  8. Username: hatrickboy09 Super awesome of you to do this giveaway!! Thanks for all the great content! https://www.vessel.com/videos/MI7F0u2H8 https://www.vessel.com/videos/Su_Wqd7Vl
  9. So I have an i5-4590 clocked at 3.3ghz with an MSI H97M-G43 Mobo and I can't seem to get my processor to turbo boost to the advertised 3.7ghz. I went through the bios and it says that turbo boosting is enabled. I thought this was all I needed to do? Is it not doing it b/c I have a "H" board and not a "Z"? Any help would be great! Thanks!
  10. The case would be a great upgrade from my Corsair 200R as far as looks go You guys are awesome for these giveaways and so is Antec for providing you with the resources to do them
  11. Oh yeah! I remember seeing that in an LTT video a while back I think... good idea! I had completely forgotten about the Kraken Kit.
  12. I like that PSU. and yes I forgot to mention that in my last post. I noticed the cables looked.... bad.... So I would end up sleeving them in white That is an awesome GPU... wish it wasn't so expensive Hopefully the price drops a lot!
  13. Yeah. the LED would probably wait. If I did anything I would do the NZXT Hue. for about $30 I can create any color she may want. Not sure I feel comfortable enough to mod my own card at this point but I'll keep an eye out for the Galaxy HoF. As for the power supply I found a cheap SeaSonic that I think would work: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151076
  14. I hadn't thought to make the PSU white as well! great idea! as for the CPU cooler I will probably stick to stock for now. But also a great idea to go with the theme on that!
