Hello, fellow Arc owner! :) In my experience filling up the memory (the internal insufficient amount of it) seems to hold back system performance :unsure: Also, long times between reboots, and multiple background-running apps can make your phone less responsible, and generally slower - no matter the app you're trying to use :( If your problems are THAT annoying, just backup everything you love and care for, and do a full factory data + settings reset. This consumes time regardless of your phone's speed, but ultimately gives you that feeling of a brand new phone B) Hope I've helped ^_^

Because it's not worth it !!!!!!!! The controller is going to be more complex, everything's going to be a tad bit more expensive... and for what, writing on that 20Mb/s capped eMMC card inside your phone (applicable for the majority of devices) ?? :blink:

That was unexpected... :D Just kidding, no hard feelings ;) To OP: Fox sounds actually awesome ^^ My name is Andrey (Slavonic for Andrew) => rather common and not-as-interesting-as-Fox name here. Andreshk is just a play on said name :)

And here I was thinking just today how hard could it be do add just 3cm (equivalent of 2 expansion slots) to the sides of the Prodigy... when I see this abomination :blink: Bitfenix, I am disappoint. -_- You can joke, but if you can turn the front panel upside down, then flipped Prodigy-M and original Prodigy-M will be indistinguishable :D

Where, sorry? I'm seriously looking forward to buying one, and (correct me if I'm worng) 175$ pre-order might as well mean 150~160$ MSRP, which puts it very close to current best m-ITX board from Asus, P8Z77I-Deluxe... and that, my friends, is a very good deal! Edit: Out of excitement I forgot to post my personal opinion, I expected it to be 200$ and up :unsure:

Gold is a good idea, and yes, there are many matching components, and yes, one can build a nice system out of them... but Asus' implementation is awful. :wacko: Maybe next time they'll nail it, maybe they have to take another look at ECS, or even AsRock, but for now... no, just no.

Now THAT is epic !

"not a Prodigy" why??

^ SFX power supply requirement is always a setback, so thanks, but no thanks, Lian-Li :wacko: Otherwise, among your selection, I'd go with the FT03 Mini for the clean, sleek exterior, and the brilliantly planned-out interior :) Hope that helps!

Definitely my topic, looking for a brand-spanking-new Bitfenix Prodigy build in the coming month or two... Two side questions, since I've liked the Z77 Deluxe m-ITX board, is there any possibility for a similar board with the new chipset? And, my main worry, can you recommend a store (or site), which ships to Europe relatively cheap? (sorry, Linus, love you, but NCIX is over 9000km away - pun not intended) I'm not even thinking of Bulgaria, but Germany works perfectly for me :) Caseking is my first and only option for now, so I'm open for suggestions! Thanks in advance!

Definitely in for the One X+ (and because Linus is awesome) :) Posted on Facebook by the name Andreshko Drenski: https://www.facebook.com/drencho/posts/669769773049423 Wish me luck, people!

One suggestion from me - replace the bottom fan with a pressure-optimised one, even though the C70 has a relatively high floor clearance, I think an SP120 would fare better.

No, the motherboard just doesn't let me boot off of the USB flash drive! :wacko: Last time I reinstalled Windows from such drive, there was no problem, now it hangs during POST - regardless of plugged in HDDs.... do you think it may be the thumb sticks' fault? :blink:

Try charging YOUR phone on YOUR motherboard on the high-powered USB ports and get your own readings, and having all the pros and cons about it in mind, decide what's better for you... also, you're not obligated do to the same each and every time, and a tip for quick charges (for example, when you have 20 minutes left and you have to go somewhere) charge it in flight mode!

University = Lots of writing => I'd actually suggest a Surface (with either Cover), just for the included MS Office. Of course you could also get Google Docs or other free alternatives on other devices, but still - tablet with a keyboard! Or simply get a laptop :D

Nope, 2TB drive here; and it's partitioned in two, so none of that "2.2TB partition size limit" stuff... And it's not like my PC doesn't recognise it, I've used it for a while as a secondary drive... :wacko: Will try fiddling with the drive modes.

Hello, everybody! Long time reader, first time poster here. :) I'm having a strange problem and I am not sure where it's coming from. So I have had a couple of harddrives in my system for a long time, and have recently bought a new one, with the intention of using it as the main and only one. So, I removed the old harddrives, and with the new one (and only it) plugged in, I began installing Windows... and here is the problem, the motherboard doesn't even let me past all the POST messages and tests, it freezes on the "Checking NVRAM" message and no boot for me. Before you ask, the HDD is already formatted (if it matters), and my MB is an oldie AM2+ Asus M3A76-CM. Any ideas? Solutions? The interwebs hinted, that this NVRAM check is somehow related to the harddrives' bootsectors, but the HDD in question has never been used as a system drive. Clearing the CMOS hasn't worked, unfortunately. Thanks in advance! --- UPDATE: Apparently none of that is related to the harddrives - the PC won't boot from a USB flash drive, that's it, I only get to see some of the POST messages, up until "Checking NVRAM" and it simply freezes :wacko:

Awesome giveaway, big thanks to both Intel and Gigabyte! Good luck, everyone!
