  1. Hi all, I am in the process of getting a second QHD monitor (2560x1440) for office work. I have a first gen i3-something CPU... But it's iGPU can't handle those Korean monitors... So I need a deducated GPU that has 2 dual link DVI outputs and I think 1 or 2GB buffer... And it should be as cheap as possible. I won't be doing any games on it. Strictly for MS Office, browsing and NX remote sessions... Any ideas?
  2. Awesome giveaway... Facebook share: https://www.facebook.com/DivineEvilBG/posts/10201066811373417
  3. Nice contest... Facebook Entry from Divine_Evil: [url= ] [/url= ]Twitter entry from Divine_Evil: [url= ] [/url= ]
  4. I know I can... but there are more resources for intel hackintoshes... And I don't have much time for searching for AMD ones...
  5. Hey all, I'm posting the progress on my first ever mod of a case. I'm posting this again from the New Builds and Planning section so that more of the modders out there to see it :). Sorry for the grainy pics, but they are made with my iPhone... I'm planning on building myself a G5 case modded hackintosh . This is going to be my second desktop that I will own (the first one was a Duron 800Mhz 128MB RAM, 32MB Riva TNT2 of awesomeness from 2001 ). It lasted me till 2006... But now is 2013 and I need something AWESOME! I'd like to gather some opinions on the QUITE build I'm planing. I'd like to spend at most a 1000$. It's a hackintosh so I'll have to go with Intel so don't suggest AMD ... So here is my build so far: i5 3570k or i7 3770k GA-Z77MX-D3H mATX mobo 2x8GB RAM (Any good low profile ram?) GTX 660Ti or 670 256GB Samsung 840 Pro SSD ( 2TB WD Green drive I already have... Seasonic 520W Fanless PSU Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO My main concern is the PSU and if it's going to provide enough power to 1 GPU and (in the future a sound card and a raid card), 2 HDD and 2 SSDs, ODD and all the USB peripherals... Another concern is the cooling... I'll have a total of 3-4 fans in the case. 1 120mm exhaust fan at the back, 1 or 2 CPU fans on the cooler, and the video card fan... Will that provide enough air circulation for the fanless PSU to be cooled? I'm open also for suggestion for alternatives to all my components... UPDATE: First of all I've bought the parts and they are: i7 3770k + Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO CPU Cooler GA-Z77MX-D3H mATX mobo 2x8GB RAM G.Skill Ares 1866 MHz Galaxy GTX GC 660Ti 3GB 256GB Crucial M4 SSD 2TB WD Green drive I already have... Seasonic SS-520FL Fanless PSU... Second I'd like to show you the progress on my G5 case: And with scuffs like this: After powdercoating it white and some small parts black for 12$. It became this! and the back with black door lock and black PCI brackets And that is for now... This weekend I plan on putting all the powdercoated parts and do the standoffs for the mobo... wish me luck. Update March 15th: I started paing all the silver nuts and bolts black... And this is the result And I've put together the side panel. The screws and the plastic parts that the lock hooks attach were painted black : Looking niiiice Update March 18: I'm done with the spraypainting and if it wasn't for a single standoff to break I would have been done with the gluing the standoffs... And with that I need less than 30 minutes to put the case together and be ready for the PC parts . I painted the plastic PCI frame black ... NIIICE result The backside with thelaserhive's kit installed. Powdercoted aluminum plate and spaypainted IO bracket plate... Original HDD cage spraypainted black and ORICO 2x2.5" to 3.5" mounting bracket that fits perfectly between the Superdrive and the HDD cage . A total of 4 drives... And last but not least... Frontside with the Superdrive door Black and the frontpanel bezel and powerbutton
  6. Nope the logo is gone, but I might make a custom apple logo sticker to put on the side...
  7. Hey guys look at the first post for the latest update on my build!
  8. I hardly game... nor video edit... nor render :). I'd be keeping this PC for at least 4-5 years so I'd like it to be as future proof as possible...
