    building a portal gaming pc in a hard case suitcase, where it opens would be the screen, all the components underneath and water cooled, all you would need is one cable connected to mains power..

    i can either tap into cigarette light and splice in 2 more wires for the accesspoint and one for the hard drive. they run on a 10amp fuse. easy enough to put a on/off switch in so it doesnt drain battery

    not sure if mentioned yet but, dont include peripherals in the price! for me, my keyboard mouse and monitor cost about 500 dollars! made the price seem so much less to my mum

    Hey guys long time since I've posted on here so here goes! I'm wanting to have a hard drive filled with music/movies and all sorts, but I need to be able to access it from my tablet. whats going to be the easiest and cheapest solution for this? what I've thought about so far. seagate has a wireless plus hard drive series ranging from 0.5tb to 2tb, sounds easy enough - 200-250 dollars. getting a hard drive connected to a router or access point then streaming to the tablet no idea of the cost so far ... or see if there are any blue tooth options.. what do you guys think? oh and there's one catch, it has to run off 12 volts as its going in my car, and I'll probably have to change the hard drive out for a solid state! get creative!

    i would say yes, similar to what my 290 got

    try overclocking it mildly and see if that helps increase it a lil?

    d14 is on par / sometimes better then aio water coolers, beating single rads and equalling duals

    for 3 monitors at all 1080p for gaming, i would suggest 2*280x.. i suggest 280x because they have a wider bus and a bit more Vram, allowing them to use more Vram in total over the 3 monitors, you will also need to make sure that your gpus can output near 144hz otherwise a 144hz monitor isnt going to be worth it. also remember most games dont support crossfire/sli

    edit - maybe new 2 new gpus -

    watching his rj45 video now and he says cat5e for 10gigbit at 55m and 1gigabit at 100m while cat6 is a full 10gigabit for 100m hmm
  14. kinkywink
    im not sure i think ive seen the video but i cant remember
  15. kinkywink
    both have a maximum length of 100m or 328ft, after this it starts to degrade, cat6 is less acceptable to crosstalk and supports 10gigabit connection over shorter distances while cat5e only supports gigabit connection, so if both cables were run at max capacity i would say that cat6 would be better over a longer distance as it has a leeway as such with the max speed - I think

    ^ what these guys said

    on thick radiators such as the alpha cool monsta rads which are 60mm+ thick it improves performance as the second set of fans help pull air through it. but on a h100i its not justifiable as a decent set of static pressure optimized fans should be fine. a couple of corsair SP 120s would do the trick... but yeah, its often done for looks

    by staying with the major vendors such as msi, asus, gigabyte, not so much asrock (always seems budget to me), he should be fine. but chances are that hes going to want to overclock if hes going amd, namely the 8320, which is why i suggest the 990fx board. but as you say as long as the power phase is right then theres no problem, generally most 990fx boards are better for this but, if he went for the asus m5a97 or m5a99 board he would be fine i believe
  19. kinkywink
    dont change the board to a 970fx, the 990 is much better for the 8 core processor

    ------------------------ he said no intel builds.. only AMD
  21. kinkywink
    chrome?
  22. kinkywink
    try explorer
  23. kinkywink
    im not sure on the price difference but i would personally go for a 990fx mobo with 6350 or 8320 - just more horse power to help move things along, i havnt heard much about PNY but im sure itll work, if theres one with a similar price maybe 20 or so dollars more i would go for that if it has a better cooler
