  2. My favourte thing about the G3 is the multi-item clipboard! This needs to be in EVERY phone.
  3. There's some reviews on OCN about the new acrylic tubing from Primochill: http://www.overclock.net/t/1397988/new-primochill-rigid-tubing/80 and http://www.overclock.net/t/1403320/build-log-blood-red-acrylic-pipes-delidded-haswell-600t-hopefully-5-0ghz From reading the threads over at OCN, it looks very awesome! With positive results too. I'm also planning to do acrylic tubing too, but Primochill's tubing and fittings seems kind of big from my liking... Apparently EK released their "push in" fittings for acrylic tubing (similar to Bitspower C47 fittings) and will launch a compression like fitting similar to Primochills (http://thinkcell.ekwb.com/idea/compression-fitting-for-metalacrylic-tubing) but for 12/10mm tubing (yay)! I'm personally holding out my rebuild until EK releases their compression fittings for acrylic tubing. :lol:
  4. If you're set on getting the DT770 Pros, I'd get a ModMic 3.0. Has noise cancellation and works well with the Asus Phoebus or Xonar Essence. Here you go: http://www.modmic.com/blogs/news/7590731-3-0-compatibility-log-and-pilot-program
  5. It's alive! Reinstalled the stock cooler for the 680, made an open bench setup and tested everything, it works! Booted up fine, looks like the card is working as usual. I left the card to dry for overnight and then put it in a bucket of rice to absorb any left over water overnight. Once again, lesson learnt for me, need to check fittings and tubing often! Thanks once again for the great help and advice everyone!
  6. Since Monday is a holiday, the supermarkets near me are closed. I guess I have to post phone my rebuilding to Tuesday. Gives me time to figure out if I need new tubing and anything else or not... Thanks for the idea, will grab some 99% IPA first thing on Tuesday. Thanks again for all of your responses!
  7. Thanks for the replies. Just for clarification, I turned the power off which includes the PSU too. I rather not go bake my parts as I may damage something in the process, gonna leave it overnight and see what happens. Thanks again for the help.
  8. Long story, but here goes. I was cleaning the top of my radiator because they were accumulating dust. Turned off the computer, since I was running in a push config I had to remove the the fans and the radiator it self. I propped it with my left hand and had a mini vacuum (on my right) to suck all the dust out. While I was putting it back together on the top of the case, I felt something wet. Crap. One of the tubes from the CPU block came loose, and popped off. Water started dripping onto my 680's back plate and on to the GPU's memory controller on the 680. Double crap. I quickly grabbed a bowl beside me (luckily I was eating something at that time) and caught the water just in time. After that, I removed the CPU waterblock while catching rest of the water that was dripping from the tubes. Then I saw water on top of my PSU, PSU cable connectors on the PSU (my PSU is fan side down) and on the case floor. Shit. I quickly took out the 680 and drained all the water, took off the backplate plus waterblock and wiped off any water that was on it with a paper towel. Now I'm letting it dry for now and checking all my parts for any damage. Lucky, the motherboard didn't take any hit from the water plus the hard drive and SSD. The cause? One of my tubing from my CPU waterblock went lose over time (I built my rig a year ago). Lesson learnt, gotta check tubing and fittings every so often. Question being, is both my 680 and PSU dead now? I'm afraid to go and test them tomorrow when I rebuild everything together. Any advice?
  9. BlackBerry Z10 here. Would have switched to the HTC One if it was available during that time, but hey, I'm a loyal BlackBerry fan.
  10. Was looking poking around OCN and saw this, reminded me of how Linus talked in one of the live streams that in the future that cloud gaming will be the norm. More interesting is how AMD will do this though... http://o.canada.com/2013/03/27/amd-hopes-the-future-of-pc-gaming-is-in-the-cloud/ If this got posted sorry!
  11. Gonna try my luck, hope I win! Twitter: https://twitter.com/wiltruong/status/315075189903863809 On RedFlagDeals: http://forums.redflagdeals.com/2013-03-13-linustechtips-win-lenovo-u410-3960x-x79ud3-giveaway-no-qc-twitt-fb-1317681/
  12. It'll be worth every penny, you won't be disappointed that's for sure!
  13. I use these wipes from that I got from Costco (forgot the name) that has isopropyl alcohol in them for my U2312HM and it cleans fairly well for my screen (for me that is), I think you should be fine with those screen wipes.
