Please stop, no one cares.

cacra reacted to Aelita Sophie in What are these connections for?
It's for power. Its a DC Power terminal. For a hookup between 12 and 30v 60W. Would need (flat calculated according to what it says on the thing it self) a 30v 2A supply or 12v 5A. The notation is not very specific.. I'm also not sure its either to power the device, or to power other devices from that terminal. But I would guess the first.

It looks like it's the output of a amplifier or something, where you can hook up external speekers that need amplifiers to work. I don't really know about the "DC 12V-30V" lable on the back. It could be variable for different type of speakers, but im not really sure about it.

You should be able to, yes. Do keep in mind, most of the times, those jacks are mono.

It isn't for an amplifier. If you read the manual, on pages 4 and 5, these connections are for a DC power input, so you can run the speaker off a car battery or similar DC power source.

It doesn't reduce quality, but you'll want to make sure you're outputting a mono signal from whatever source you're using (I.e. phone, laptop etc...), If you don't you'll only hear the left channel through the speaker.

cacra reacted to Aelita Sophie in What are these connections for?
Well, you only get one audio channel. So no stereo sound (like 2 speakers). Though most amplifiers and most likely these will push the mono sound to both speakers. You will just not have a distinctive left or right. It shouldn't hurt the actual quality if the correct cable is used. Since this is an analog input, the quality and length of the cable does affect the quality of your sound eventually. You can learn more about this from a convenient video from LMG @ techquickie

I've had this exact same issue. PC would randomly restart while playing games. At first, it would happen once every 2 weeks, but after a few weeks, the severity increased and the PC would reboot even if it was on idle. Turned out, it was the PSU that was causing troubles. I had a VS550 which I replaced with a S12ii 620w and I haven't faced this issue since.

Looks like the PSU is dying... You should get a new one

Funnily enough when I built my PC i brought two cx500ms by mistake. Just need to dig out the other one from the attic

No... The PSU should GTFO and you should get a new one
I recommend a Seasonic M12II/S12II

cacra reacted to Princess Luna in Why do people use VGA to refer to any PC graphics cards?
I always say GPU instead of VGA or in rare cases "Video Card"

It does get heavier! storing new data involves holding electrons in a fixed place in the device's memory. Although the electrons were already present, keeping them still rather than allowing them to float around takes up extra energy – about a billionth of a microjoule per bit of data and since energy and mass are directly related...

Lol, Ik. The Razerblade is WAAAAY out of your budget for sure. If you want something really sleek and light then go for the HP Stream 13 (http://www.amazon.com/HP-Stream-Laptop-Personal-Horizon/dp/B00O65HZKS/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1426653209&sr=1-1&keywords=HP+Stream+13). Or go with this Toshiba (http://www.amazon.com/Toshiba-Satellite-L15W-B1120-Convertible-Touchscreen/dp/B00REWQNXK/ref=sr_1_5?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1426653235&sr=1-5&keywords=laptop+with+ssd)

Super cool? I don't see how using a computer can make me cool. I do have more money in my pocket though.

I always carefully consider what I download, a billionth of a billionth of a gram is a lot to some people.

Or try some mineral oil cooling? There's only a small chance that the spider will become a mutant mineral oil spider survival.
