  1. I'd love a new 5820k. I'd probably buy a mid-high end overclocking X99 board and a new cooler and see how far I can take the 5820k.
  2. What I like about the AMP! Extreme is the LEDs that indicate the GPU load. What I like about the 900 series in general is the super low power consumption in comparison to last generation.
  3. If I remember correctly, I found NCIX Tech Tips and Linus Tech Tips a couple of months before I built my first PC (January 2012) while I was looking to learn more about building my own PC. I've been subscribed to both NCIX and LTT since then, maybe even Linus Cat Tips at one point in time. Congrats on a million everyone at Linus Media Group, and I'm looking forward to the day when I see the 2 million video in my sub box.
  4. My favorite feature of the Z2 is the waterproofness/water-resistance. I have a Lifeproof case on my S3 because I'm always afraid of getting caught in the rain and ruining my phone. It adds a ton of bulk and makes the hardware buttons feel less responsive. It's cool that the Z1 and Z2 are both waterproof so I wouldn't have to worry about getting caught in the rain.
  5. I think my favorite thing about the M8 is the looks and build quality. I don't know of many (if any) other Android phones that have this level of attention to detail and quality materials.
  6. I'm currently looking at external battery packs for phones/tablets/laptops and I saw the Anker Astro Pro2. I know Linus recommended it, so I decided to look further into it. I have a Lenovo Yoga 13 that I'd like to be able to charge with it. I know that the power tip is not included with the pack, but there are adapters available for purchase. The problem I ran into was the output of the battery pack. The specs state the max is 19V/3A, and the Yoga power adapter says it outputs 20v/3.25A. Does anyone have this battery pack that uses it with the Yoga? Or does anyone have electrical experience that could tell me whether or not it's likely to work? If not, maybe you could recommend a different battery pack with similar capacity that could power the Yoga?

  7. I've been in need of an upgrade for a while now but I haven't had the money. This is an awesome opportunity to win something that's better than I was planning to upgrade to. https://twitter.com/CapnKrunchy/status/315476914255060993
  8. I swapped out the stock fan for a CM Sickleflow because it was clicking at low speeds. The Sickleflow is now doing the same and I am getting fed up because I sleep in the same room as my computer. I've heard Corsair fans are good, but I wasn't sure whether to get SP or AF fans for my heatsink. I would be buying the quiet edition for either one. I am also open to other suggestions.
