LG PF1000U Ultra Short Throw Projector Giveaway
BenjaminC replied to CPotter's topic in LTT Releases
I think it's the first really well executed short throw projector. The size is phenomenal, other short throw projectors with image quality this good are at least five times the size. I really like the bluetooth audio capability, that's a little thing you wouldn't think of that makes it a lot more useful and a lot more portable for a full system you can actually enjoy. I love that they went with an LED light source, incandescent lamps are too hot and they're always burning out. -

Wow HP sponsorship, congrats. Really fantastic video guys. Their testing shows us what drives will survive better in any circumstances, it's good data.

Are there any sleeved cables with white connectors?
BenjaminC replied to Cody A's topic in Cases and Mods
If you're doing a white build the more white you have the better. Even if your gpu or motherboard have black power connectors it looks nicer to have white conductors running into white connectors at the end of the cable. You just deal with black board connectors because they're much more difficult to change. With white going into white it looks more like a complete white cable rather than a bundle of conductors running into darkness. See how these look: compared to this: -
@CableMod It would be great to have the option of a 4-pin EPS cable so that on motherboards with both 8 and 4 pin connectors the extra 4 aren't dangling. Motherboards like the Z170X SOC Force, Z170 OC Formula, Z170A XPOWER, Maximus VIII Extreme, Crosshair V Formula-Z, and plenty of X99 and Z97 motherboards have a supplemental 4 pin CPU power connector. I have a full list of Z97, Z170, and X99 below.

Oops, I was thinking of a cooler master V550. If it's a corsair VS series then yeah, definitely replace it with something less prone to explosion.

Reseat your power supply cables

How are your CPU and GPU temperatures?

It shouldn't be failing, you have a seasonic unit. First make sure all of your power connectors are plugged in right at both ends.

Why would you put a Z97 board with a xeon?

The core 1000 has really poor fan options and a top mounted PSU, plus the HDD bracket thing is awful. I recommend the Core 1500 over it for a much more livable case.

Best LGA 755 MotherBoard for gaming
BenjaminC replied to n00bmlg's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
A good overclocking motherboard is going to cost you $200, for that you can get a much better motherboard and CPU than your q6600. -
It also registers as an xbox controller, if you want it to.

XSPC vs Alphacool vs EK vs Swiftech (quality)
BenjaminC replied to DrJones's topic in Custom Loop and Exotic Cooling
EK throws a lot of money at aesthetics and advertising, the rest of the brands listed hardly advertise at all. For a lot of people, EK is the only brand they know or pay attention to, so they think it's the best quality without considering any other brand. -

None that you'll be able to overclock, only intel option is a G3258 for less but it's a dual core and you have to disable the igpu to overclock it
