  1. I have an R5 and I run a fan in the bottom. It gets dusty pretty quick, so I run a static pressure fan in it. Works great. I had a Corsair quiet AF fan, but switched to a Noctua P.
  2. Bacon Reader Pro (for reddit) (Also use the IMGUR app) Fallout Shelter That's about all on my tablet.
  3. I'm not getting any crashing at all on it. I'm on 6.0.1 on my Nexus 6P. It's crazy that it's lagging even on new hardware, though, with 200 residents. And the "OOPS I PICKED UP A DWELLER" thing is f**king annoying when trying to drag the screen.
  4. I've had a MSI 970 GAMING and I quit trying above 1450mhz clock, and got the memory to 3703mhz. I since traded with a friend for an EVGA ACX card, and now I run 1475mhz, and same on the memory. I'm pretty sure I could get 1500, just because it's an even number, but eh.
  5. Backstory: I work at a BMW dealership. Friend asks me what I think of a 525it. I say it's garbage--don't do it unless you want a project. He brings it in for a pre-purchase inspection. Find NUMEROUS things wrong with car, and there's ZERO service history. Car is worth 3500, with everything fixed, because 200,000+ miles. Seller is asking 6500. Friend buys car anyway. For $6000, still far more than it's worth. Then winter comes along, heater fan dies. Power windows stop working. Constant battery drain--battery dead after 3 days of sitting. 2 of the 4 aftermarket wheels (that we said were bent in the PPI) are leaking. Says it's all my fault. Friend then buys a 2005 Mini Cooper for his wife. Clutch hydraulics fail on that. After fixing hydraulics, find out it needs a clutch anyway.
  6. What exactly do you mean by this? Got any documentation from Intel?

    Noctua Fans?

    To answer your questions, the S-series Noctua fans are the airflow optimized fans. They're only good for very open, non-restricted airflow. The F-series fan is better in 90% of situations. Any dust filter, HDD cages, radiators.... you'll definitely want an F-series fan. NF-S12A - case/airflow optimized. NF-F12A - static pressure optimized. As stated, though, the Industrial line (VERY worth the money, IMO) is the way to go, and there is no S-series fan in that line. That's because the static pressure optimized fans are better.
  8. Look into getting "rubber screws" if you want to keep fans quieter.
  9. Pretty sure everybody knows South Korean monitors are great. Samsung is a pretty big name in the game.
  10. I apologize. I was under the impression OP was trying to do the opposite--from HDD to SSD.
  11. When I used the software that came with my Samsung EVO SSD, it left the system intact on my HDD.
  12. Cloning software SHOULD leave the original drive intact as a fail-safe method.
  13. If you really wanted to get creative, you could pull the tach wire from your fans hooked up to the controller, and plug it into the tach sense portion of the header on the mobo. That's probably more work/uglier than you want, though.
  14. The main thing I like about water cooling is that the heat from the CPU is OUT of the case, and I don't need a load of fans to do it. 3. Two front intake, and one exhaust through the radiator.
  15. Yup. Same here, almost completely. I see someone, even family, and I'm quite indifferent as to what happens to them. My grandfather whom I was quite close to died when I was very young. I never understood why everybody was crying. I never shed a tear, except around my grandmother because I thought she'd want to see me "mourning" for him similar to how she was. But I never really felt anything. For the most part, logic rules what I do. I hear so many people talk about their "passion" and enjoying what the do and I have no idea what that even means. I've struggled my whole life until recently. As you said, manipulating people (definitely exs, they were the easiest) and even family to a point. I never really had many friends, and I was fine with that. But I finally found a girl (and in turn a true friend) who accepts me for me. She's got a background in Psychology and other brain stuff, so we both kinda feed off each other. It's pretty amazing. I also realized that a long-time acquaintance of mine is also a sociopath, so it's far, far more common than you think.

    Bronies

    I used to watch a friend's kid for him while he and the wife went on a dinner date or something as such. The kid LOVED the bouncy pink pony. Pinkie Pie. At first I very begrudgingly watched the "Pony Show" with Henrik, but surprisingly to me I started to enjoy the show. I'm not saying I'm a Brony by any means, but it's a decent show. No hidden nasty shit to subtly screw with people, and the show has a generally good message to it. I'm kinda surprised at the whole Brony audience, but I've seen damn near all of seasons 1 and 2, so yeah. lol
  17. Only reason I'd see why someone would load up on these is..... uhmmmmm.... Scrap aluminum? I got nothin, really.
  18. I have the Define R5 and my bottom filter (Full length, PSU area included) pulls out from the front. Easy to clean, and I do have fans down there.
  19. I jumped on the Ducky 4 Special Community Edition with Clears. I absolutely love it. Clears are perfect.
  20. I'd love this little machine. I'd probably have it set up in my garage for some casual gaming with friends.
  21. I'm currently using Astrill. Where I'm at, they have the best speeds of the VPNs I've tried.
  22. I love my HyperX Cloud II. Sounds great, metal construction, and 2 different ear cups--leather or microfiber. Audio quality is damn good, too. Nice and crisp, without being really peaky at certain frequencies.
  23. Quick question - Is this a worthwhile upgrade from my 4670K? Board is http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157371&cm_re=Z87_extreme6-_-13-157-371-_-Product
