    To illustrate the value of a good set of binos, the farthest target in this photo is at 1140 yards and I could watch bullets drop in from the horizon and hit it.
    The photo was taken with an iphone SE through one side of a set of Maven B5 18x56 binoculars.

    Speed fan has a feature that sets all fans to 100% if any temperature goes over the "alarm temp".  You need to make sure all of your sensors' alarm temps are set above normal operating temperatures.

    How about this?
    Asus laptops have excellent build quality
    it has enough ram
    SSD
    1TB HDD
    i7 for your editing needs
    and a GTX 880M for playing pretty much any game on High - Ultra

    The new razer blade has a 3200x1800 display.
    I'm in the same market and find myself waiting for the broadwell MacBooks as I am not in urgent need of a laptop. Battery life and a slim, well built device is key IMO.

    For video editing/rendering, you might want a workstation GPU. You're going to want a high resolution screen above 15". You're going to want more than 8GB RAM too. Here's what I got.

    Pyr0monk3y got a reaction from unknowngamerfreak in GTX 780 or HD7970 6GB   
    you're right, it isn't technically a previous gen card and I'm aware that memory is important.  I think the 780 makes up for it with it's speed though.  Also, isn't it possible that there will be a 6gb version of the 780 released at some point?  That would be the ticket.

    Pyr0monk3y reacted to Lthenaly in Can you SLI a Tian with a 680   
    For SLI you can only SLI the same model of the particular card.
    Example:
    680 + 680 = Yes
    680 + Titan = No*
    680 + 670 = No*
    680 + 770 (Unknown but 95% Won't work) = No*
    * = You can have plugged in and running, but can only use for dedicated PhysX, if i remember correctly people use to go GT 9800 (Main) or something like this, with GT 9600 as a dedicated PhysX card.

    My trusty daily driver of 158,000 miles.. "Sally", a 2000 Honda S2000[AP1].  Stock, besides a custom Borla dual muffler and an AEM CAI.
    Currently working on my other car a Nissan 240SX Fastback[PS13] for track.  Building up a KA-T for more(arguably) more torque.

    Pyr0monk3y got a reaction from airdeano in Fractal R4 Transplant   
    This build has been operational for about a year and a half.  A month ago I got fed up with my HAF 922's constant vibrations and lack of cable management.  The build was just a mess.  I picked up a Fractal R4 and a few fans and set to work... or play rather.
     
     
     
     

     
     

     
     

     
     
     
    It's super quiet, the dust seems to be keeping out, and temps are a couple degrees lower.  A quality case makes a huge difference.  It just makes your whole computing experience a little better.  Fractal has hit a home run with this one.
     
     
    And yes, that is an IDE ribbon.

    Pyr0monk3y got a reaction from Joshyy in Which Upgrade Would Be Most Beneficial To Me?   
    GPU  It's hard to reccomend something if I don't know what you're doing, but if you're a gamer, the 6850 is getting a little old.  If you have $280 go for a 7870 LE.  You probably wont need a PSU upgrade and the card is a beast overclocker.

    I strongly suggest using the bios to overclock rather then using AMD Overdrive because it can be quite buggy and good luck :)
