    So you're suggesting, essentially, having a dual boot where I never use one of the installations. I mean, that'd work, but I'd rather keep things as tidy and waste-free as possible. I'm thinking I may just take my data off my hard drive, wipe it, install the OS on the SSD, then just keep data on the hard drive and have my user profile be more-or-less empty. Unless there's a way to get your profile on a different drive than your system drive? Could I robocopy it over?

    So I received a Samsung 850 Pro for Christmas, and I'm planning to move my OS installation along with a few games and apps onto it. One issue though: I'm not sure just how to go about it. I wanted to take everything off my current drive that I don't want on the 850 Pro, create a system image, load the image onto the 850 Pro, then move my data and stuff back onto my hard drive. I've already run into an issue when trying to move my user profile onto my backup drive--any other directories I should be aware of that need to stay with the OS? The only other idea I have is to make two images, one for the OS and one for data; wipe the hard drive; then load the OS image on the SSD and the data image on the hard drive.

    Seems like I can't use the OPK unless I'm a Microsoft Partner anyway. Oh well; no free copies of Windows 7 for me I guess.

    So I bought an OEM version of Windows 7 to save a few bucks. Microsoft suggests that I use their OEM Pre-Installation Kit (OPK) to install Windows 7 on a system intended for resale. Since this is my own machine, do I have to bother with the OPK? Can I just install straight off the disk? Anything worthwhile in the kit?

    I was thinking more along the lines of Wi-Fi only, or perhaps a different kind of smart watch than we've seen thusfar; something that doesn't need Internet access at all.

    I just picked up a 300R. The drive cage is really sold, and there's some space between your drive and the mount if you want to put in some sound-dampening material. Only concern I've had so far is that the side panels don't fit completely flush; it can feel like you're forcing them on.
  7. UndefinedPersona
    Interesting. I always found the idea of a smart watch incredibly pointless (why not just take your phone out of your pocket?), but a smartphone-agnostic smart watch actually makes a bit of sense, especially for someone like myself who still uses a basic cell phone. If it's expensive and requires a service contract then it's kinda self-defeating, though.

    Ouch. Was actually considering MSI because of their great TwinFrozr coolers...

    Hey forum! I'm planning on putting an R7 260X in my current build, and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on which brand/model to buy. Preferably something with 2GB of memory that runs cool and has some room for overclocking.

    So I just picked up a Corsair Carbide 300R for my upcoming build. While the build quality is solid and it feels like I could load it up without worrying about the case flexing, I did notice one thing that concerned me a bit: the side panels don't seem to sit completely flush. Any other 300R owners run into this problem? Any remedies/suggestions? It's not a huge concern, but I don't want the case's airflow to be potentially hindered by loose panels.

    Finally, someone on this forum with a decent grasp on finance. Yes, $2.5b seems like a bit much, but remember that Microsoft's got enough money in the bank to be something-billion dollars in the red every year for 25 years. If Mojang were a publicly-traded company, their stock prices would be skyrocketing right about now. Microsoft has the resources necessary to keep Minecraft ever-expanding, whereas Mojang seem to be overwhelmed with the player base they already have. Have some faith, people.

    Fantastic mouse; I have one myself. Just beware of a couple things: 1. Don't ratchet the screws in too tightly if you remove/replace one of the weights. 2. The textured surface is likely to wear smooth where you rest your thumb. Other than that, game on!
  13. UndefinedPersona
    Awesome, thank you for all your help!

    Wow, not bad. I'm not keen on having to drive over an hour to the closest store, but I can't seem to find anything cheaper online. So I guess my last question is: can I save any money by buying Z87 instead of Z97 (assuming these bundle deals didn't exist), or would I be paying about the same due to Z87 boards being out of production?
  15. UndefinedPersona
    Well, I'm planning on getting an i5-4690K. I'm asking these questions to see if I can save a few bucks by buying a Z87 board instead of Z97.
