lol, Well it was time for me to upgrade from my 510's and 520's.

@TheProfosist

Why put them in 3.5" bays?

mainly for cable management reasons and that I dont have any SSD specific spots in my case. There are 2.5in drive spots on the drive sleds but they just screw driectly and they dont align the connector to where it would be on a HDD.

In my opinion the only SSDs that rival the Samsung's are the SanDisk's as they are just so clean. Either way these are the new king on the block and are likely going to stay there until (taking SATA II in to consideration).

I made the mistake of trying these out at home for a few days and they were just so much better than my old HD650's that I just had to buy them. With luck, these might be the last headphones I ever have to buy :)

The camera is fine.. I just haven't figured out how to hold it steady when i press the button.. i recently got a new bulky case for the phone. And taking pictures has gotten a bit more challenging

the shutter speed must be half a second to get that much blur though!

I have no idea. I've been able to take good pics with it before. But it's a phone so who cares  :P

How much are those? And any idea how much wound the cheapest ones be? I'm frying in my room (slowly being deep fried by a GTX 590)...

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

This one costs about 299kr (29 bucks or thereabouts). Bought it at O&B here in sweden. 

I would've bought two or three if they had more in stock. 

The brand is Voltage

It makes one helluva difference. And i wouldn't care if i had to pay 1500 for it. In this heat it's worth it

Yep. Opening a window is not an option here: either you stay in a room with the window closed, and have ridiculous heat, or you open it up and have sh*t loads of mosquitoes, flies, (flying) ants, wasps and all sorts of bugs (not system bugs (actually maybe those too)).
