    dav1257 got a reaction from Ben17 in Temperature sensor placement   
    I use a Kazemaster ace and my advice would be that the temp sensors are almost completely useless.
    As Whaler sez u cannot place sensors near core components that actually generete the most heat ie. CPU, GPU. U can place sensors in certain areas in and around but the temps u are recording wont really tell u anythin particulary useful.
    A sensor to tell u the ambient temp in the case may be ok but not really that important.
    What type of MOBO do u have? I just use the software in that to monitor CPU and i use EVGA precision x for GPU.
    All other temps r really not that important

    When a friend asks for advice about a laptop, then after days of research and searching forums for the laptop that is just right for them goes out and buys the only one you told them not to get because the guy in the shop told them it was gd

    dav1257 reacted to Aphexx in Qualcomm's Insane Keynote Presentation   
    sadly crappy presentations like these are par for the course in marketing/business classes. I'm guilty of doing bad cheesy presentations myself. lets see, I was a mafia hit man, spandex wearing tony little health freak, circus animal trainer and a moustachioed guitar wielding latin pick up artist mixed meets Night at the Roxbury techno head bobbing moron (this one was my favorite because I was able to run around the room and mack on all the hot girls I was scared to death to talk to) .... there are a bunch more that I'd rather suppress now and let a shrink earn a paycheck from later...
    I think I used the cheese as a shield, if I had to go up in front of my class and make a fool of myself I'll be the biggest fool of them all. I guess it is scary being yourself up there so I would use a disguise, or I'll hide behind all this cheese on stage. because of this, I can really empathize with that nerd in the crappy feathers because that would be me hiding behind the feathers up on that stage because I was too afraid to be me.
    however, a presentation like that doesn't come from one but a committee, a committee of spineless yes men, too afraid to say no sir I think that is a bad idea. no sir, that is in poor taste.

    dav1257 reacted to Profquast in 2560x1440 Surround with 3D all rolled into 1   
    the biggest obstacle right now is that none of the available cables have enough bandwith for 1440p 3d - but that should be solveable since there are 10Gb/s ethernet cables. Single link is 3.96Gb/s and dual link is according to wikipedia "Limited only by copper bandwidth limitations, DVI source limitations, and DVI sync limitations."

    dav1257 reacted to haybe in Corsair 900D   
    One of the completed build of 900d from a more recent teaser by Corsair George in the Overclock.net forums.
    From the looks, it would be by far the greatest case for water cooling excluding those costly caselabs, mountain mods, without any mods or any additional mounting mechanisms,
    a total of 2 60 wide 480mm and 2 240mm radiators can be mounted. The price is going to be right under $400 which makes it a great deal for what is gives.
    Can't wait to know the release date which will most likely be announced in CES.

    I never said I wanted to know. We are just guessing at it. It's called having fun. Try it some time.Also Hanes has some nice boxer briefs for that wedgie.

    I don't really care about the name, but I thought it would be interesting to read some guesses. I'm not trying to find out the kids name. Please believe me.Awesome guess btw. Thanks for playing.

    Problem with Thermal sensors and new chip design - you cannot really get the sensor anywhere near the core component generating the heat, in the case of a CPU or GPU. I would say attach one to the exaust area of your CPU cooler. If it gets to hot, ramp up CPU and intake fans. Maybe one near exhaust on GPU cooler? If it gets to hot, ramp up intake and side intake fans?
