You know what really pisses me off? Portable media accessories. Let's talk about, for example iPod docks; we live in a glorious age where we have iPods, iPhones, Android smartphones, windows phones and yet the docks get designed so that you can just push one plastic item into the area where you'd usually put the iPod - but replace so it would just fit another phone! I mean really. really. Is it seriously so difficult to market things so that they can acommodate the widest variety of hardware? I mean it's not like Android and Windows devices use anything other than a mini-usb port for crying out loud.

Fractal Design R2 Define, Core i5-4670k@3.40Ghz, 16gb Corsair Vengeance Ram

Zotac GTX 780 OC, BenQ XL2410T 1920x1080 120hz, LG 29EA73-P 29 Ultra wide

Crucial M4 250gb SSD, 2x3tb Western Digital Caviar Black partitioned into 1.36tb each, Razer Black Widow 2013 edition, Razer Deathadder, Logitech G13.

My only 2 problems with nvidia

Having to reapply my over volt settings for my overclock everytime I reboot.

When my computer sleeps or hibernates, after resume the HDMI-audio output stops working. The only fix is to manually restart the display driver or reboot. No idea why nvidia hasn't fixed that yet.

Does the "Apply overclocking at system startup" not work with the voltages, or are you using a different program than MSI afterburner?

 

Also, love your pic/username

This is probably more of big thing but, my parents bought a prebuilt for me and my siblins from a local computer shop and got REALLY ripped off. I mean, worse than apple ripped off. They dont even use it, they bought an imac that is ALOT better and now they use that (even though my brother uses it most)

These are the rough specs:

i5 2500

gt 630

1tb hard drive

500w noname psu

8 gb ram

crappy mobo

etc.

 

guess the price. . .

Dad thinks about 3 grand he paid for it.

My sleeved cables aren't perfectly strait tidy, and I need a comb thing to do it.

My led strip's adhesive sometimes let's go and it droops down from the roof. This happens like once a month. I'm going to bust out the hot glue gun the next time it happens.

I never have a usb drive handy when I absolutely need it. Its either at work, or being used by someone.

I can't make my pc any quieter without buying new fans. You can hear an ant breath in my computer room/attic, so my pc sounds like a jet engine to me after I've been up there for a while, but it's inaudable to anyone else.

My phone (HTC one) and tablet (iPad Air) don't use the same cable to charge.

My 4670k is a terribad overclocker. Only 3.8ghz on all cores. Don't even try for 4.0 on it.

I really love how the 250d looks, but it's too expensive, and big, for an htpc with no gpu.

iTunes sucks, especially the podcast tab, so much god damn lag. It's at least usable in the music tab.

There's always cat hair in my pc's when I open them up.

My light reflects off the top left corner of my monitor, but it's only noticeable when I watch movies.

And that's just the beginning. I can go all night.

I'm not an apple fan boy. If anything i would be a Microsoft fan boy.

 

But seriously the iPhone 5s is priced very similarly to the other top tier smart phones.

The MacBook Pro has unmatched build quality, while still being thinner and lighter than most ultra books. The specs are also really good.

A MacPro is actually very competitively priced. Remember professional grade equipment is very expensive even on the PC side.

Apple has amazing customer service, which is worth a lot.

I've got the classified, which can handle up to 1.6v on the core. Problem is because of nvidia's greenlight restrictions, the software only allows voltages up to 1.212v. Someone created an officially unofficial voltage tool which allows you to up the voltages past nvidias restrictions. Also gives you PWM frequency, and RAM voltage options as well. Really lets you go balls to the wall  :D :D :D

For safety reasons, the creator of the software didn't want to save old voltages or apply them on startup to prevent people from killing their cards accidentally...so yeah gotta do it every reboot
