You put a hot GPU with a bad cooler in a case with no airflow.

drmelvin got a reaction from Sharif in Advise on videography technique
Hi, any videography experts know how is this achieve, where the position of her stays consistent while shooting at different scenes.
This is definitely not greenscreen. What kind of equipment do I need if I were to try something similar? Tripod & camera is one of them.
Thank you!

Try getting a new battery and see if that helps

the catch with "just replace the battery" is you need to find the same battery, or a compatible one.
which may set you back some decent money.

other than that: your battery controller may be a brick... and the battery controller is the costly part of a pc battery.

drmelvin reacted to T.Vengeance in What are your In-car Camera Solutions?
Well in any case, I'm not going to start defending the dashcam since I don't even use one. (Btw you still had 138 cases of car theft, so it's not zero http://www.police.gov.sg/stats/crimebrief2014.html). But I will say that dashcams also provide longer recording times than what a 64GB sdcard can provide on a phone. And they have bump detection. While putting the S3 into the glove box is easy, it is still an extra step. And yes that is a lazy excuse, but isn't everything?

Alot of them record in a loop unlike smart phones. so whenever there is an accident you dont have to search through countless hours of tape. Oh and timestamps alot of them time stamp the footage for insurance claims.

Don't get mad at him. Dogs are animals, animals kill other animals.

drmelvin reacted to LinusTech in What does Linus do with all the hardware he is sent? (after he's finished using it)
Most of what we don't need to send back we keep around for future comparison. It's only when we're 100% sure that we won't need it again that we'll get rid of it via garage sale or some other means.
Also, many manufacturers have strict guidelines in terms of what we can do with samples. Intel and WD are great examples of this. We can't even give them away without prior approval.
As for the "awesomeness" of so much hardware, honestly it's less exciting than you'd think after a certain point. How many power supplies does one person need? I don't know about you guys, but for me the answer is three: personal rig, media PC, home server. Anything else just sits in a box until we need to do a case review and put a power supply inside, or we need to build a test bench or something.

drmelvin reacted to Tedster in You know you're a techie when. . .
When your desk is full of useful cables.
When your friends don't understand you and require you to speak in simple terms, which you're doing already.
When you have multiple old cellphones that no longer work lying around.
When you have all the ethernet ports on your switch occupied.
When you have an external battery on you most of the time.
When your backpack is extremely heavy thanks to the technology it's full of.

You check the specs of every computer that you go on, no matter where or what it is.
