    mk005 got a reaction from CM7 in What's your opinion on cut scenes being a limited frame rate   
    I think pre-rendered cut scenes aren't so much jerky as they are jarring suddenly dropping from whatever you were playing at to 30 fps.  I'm not a fan.

    mk005 got a reaction from chromeboy42 in Is Five Four Club worth it? (Need help)   
    If you're in the states I think it's worth it.  I'm in Canada and the extra shipping costs make me consider canceling my subscription some days (extra 20~30$+ tax some months).  My only negative experience thus far has been a pair of jeans that continues to bleed dye even after I washed it 3 times.

    mk005 got a reaction from smdMario in ASUS GTX 780 vs Gigabyte 780   
    The rule of thumb is that bigger fans spin slower and are quieter.  So more fans usually means smaller and therefore louder. This is a horrible over generalization but it's the best I can offer.  Supposedly the asus one cools better and with GPU boost 2.0 would overclock better.

    mk005 got a reaction from TheNinjaNextDor in what temp do i believe   
    Believe the motherboard temperature probe.  AMD's temperature probes work in strange and mysterious ways; especially since 17C is probably below your room's temperature.

    mk005 got a reaction from Legion in Help me with chemistry   
    Two electrons occupy each of those lines, (starting from 1) and they fill up the lines like a bus of antisocial people would fill up, you don't want to occupy a seat next to another person.
    so carbon which has 6 electrons would fill up 2s1 2s2 2p2 as shown below   (I'm probably wrong, can't remember this stuff.)

     
    a great resource for quickly figuring this stuff out is the Aufbau table.  If you understand that then understanding electron configurations becomes easier.

    It's been forever since I learned this stuff so naturally I don't remember any of it and haven't used it since Second year.

    Seems like new nvidia cards and intel cpus are coming out in a bit, but that doesn't matter because you are an AMD supporter right? Seriously, don't pick a side, pick better performance. Back to my original thing I was saying, wait for the new intel haswell e and nvidia cards come out.

    I just got an Asus VE248Q and it doesn't suck so far.  200$, has display port (no dvi though).  it's a TN pannel but the colours don't suck and the viewing angles are better than expected.

    mk005 got a reaction from DeViLzzz in GTX 770 or 780 or wait (I7 870 CPU)   
    Well to answer one question: is it worth the money to jump from a 770 to a 780?
    $200 or close to 50% more moneys for 10~20% more frames per second.  You've passed the sweet spot, so technically it's not "worth it".  The only exception is if you wish to play at greater than 1080p (multi monitor or 1440p monitor) and some modern games (theif and crisis 3 are the only ones right now) use greater than a 2gb frame buffer, which the 770 has.
     
    Will it be bottlenecked by your cpu?
    simple answer: sometimes.  You may encounter some bottleneck in newer titles or when trying to press past the 60 fps mark.  In most cases with past titles you should be ok.

    From razer I've had a Death Adder die after 14 months, a Black Widow Ultimate start malfunctioning after 15 months (my page down key wtf?), a working but lopsided headband with pieces of plastic sitting out on a headset and a squeaky Oroborose after 1 month.  My friends have had similar experiences, we don't buy razer products anymore...  I really hope they improve their quality control...

    mk005 got a reaction from Kamil in how much is too much positive pressure?   
    Positive pressure simply keeps the dust out of your computer, as long as you have some positive you win.  If you have 3 intakes and 2 exhaust you have positive pressure, and will not accumulate dust as fast.  swapping to 4 intakes 1 exhaust will not slow down the accumulation of dust (as long as all of your intakes are filtered) but it -will- negatively effect your cooling.
     
    Balanced intakes and exhaust is more efficient for cooling.  Any amount of positive pressure helps with prevent dust accumulation.  More positive pressure is not more better.
