<0> I want this motherboard -> http://us.dfi.com.tw/Upload/Product_Picture/TA64-Bb1.jpg
<1> the second set of tests are CPU
<1> software
<2> DFI socket a?
<3> 370
<3> celeron
<0> Socket 370 + Slot 1
<2> you have cpu for that?
<0> 2 CPUs just for the fun of it.
<0> Yeah.
<2> how much is the board?
<3> why?
<3> and will it run both at the same time?
<3> I remember the dual celeron abit board
<0> I think so..
<2> bp6
<2> my 1st o/c board was an abit
<2> celly 300a
<2> my worst mistake was a celly 333 that dont o/c
<0> You know.. I think the SLI phase is going to be similar to the dual CPU phase in desktop computers.
<2> and i started to go to efnet
<2> :/

<2> sdram still pricy now
<2> unless fr ebay i think
<2> my fastest sdram i recall was pc166
<3> what are you looking for in sdram
<0> With the motherboards with a second SLI x16 slot, can you use that for something besides a graphics card?
<4> hello
<5> br*** monkey!!!
<0> I want to get lightning protection for my computer, any advice?
<6> youre weird
<7> a decent surge protector or a UPS
<8> Ok, does anybody in here know anything about multiple monitors?
<3> unplug it from the wall when there is a thunderstorm?
<0> Number17, that won't protect me from lightning.
<0> FenrisWf, I want to work during a storm.
<6> does anyone know how to ask their freaking multi-monitor question
<3> nothing will protect you from lightning
<0> FenrisWf, that is not true
<8> -.- stfu
<3> ok, you keep believing that
<6> lightning will go thru anything
<0> People get lightning protection for their antennas and satellites.
<8> ... ground wire.
<3> thats called a ground
<8> exactly
<0> So about getting a ground wire for my PC?
<6> thats not for ur power lines its for thrings sticking on ur roof
<8> Possibly
<0> chuknoris, terrestrial antenna = connected to VCD = connected to power
<6> if u group ur houses power u will fry the wire andget a big bill
<0> VCR*
<3> Surge protectors and UPS units provide some degree of protection from voltage spikes from everyday power surges and distant lightning strikes. But when lightning strikes a structure directly or very close to it, lightning protection system or not, all bets are off.
<6> it protects from lightnig hitting ur dish not from the power lines
<6> is ur computer connecting to a metal object on ur roof?
<0> Look, it can be done, the empire state building gets truck 43 times a year, do you think they replace their computers 40 times a year?
<7> well maybe some very expensive on-line UPS system can handle a direct lightning strike
<0> chuknoris, my computer will be, yes.
<6> why would they connect their computers to their roof
<3> yeah, do you think that you have the ground protection that they have?
<0> But electricity takes the path of least resistance
<0> Look, you idiot, I'm looking for help not an arguement.
<7> honestly speaking, the lightning strike will probably burn out something on the poles before the full force of it reaches a home
<3> If your UPS or surge protector is in the way of the lightning's path, all or part of the lightning will just flash over or through the device - regardless of the amount of capacitors and battery banks involved.
<6> the path of least resistance doesnt go anywhere near their computers, you are making no sense
<3> I am an idiot?
<3> look ***pipe
<3> most of my family have been electricians for 30+ years
<0> You're an ***pipe
<8> o-o
<3> lightning will laugh at a UPS
<3> yeah, I smell a ban coming also
<5> FenrisWf explain
<3> educate yourself first
<5> laugh at a UPS.........
<5> what do you mean
<6> Grangee, tell us exactly what the lightning will possibly hit and the wire connections accociated please, work this out in your head
<3> if lightning strikes right outside the window, you can forget it
<0> FenrisWf, that doesn't prove anything, there are many electricians that are useless.
<3> and there are people that come on IRC and talk **** that are useless
<5> well in that case, FenrisWf they will be replacing all my equiptment
<3> and that is a bull**** argument
<0> FenrisWf, obviously, but I want to guide lightning away from the building.
<3> and I want to guide magic pixie dust into a bowl on my desk
<3> I havent had much luck on that
<2> hi daedalus
<0> FenrisWf, either help, be helped, provide some useful insight or shutup.
<3> wtf?
<9> http://www.anime-core.net/pics/churchthatsupportsbush.jpg
<9> lmao
<3> you come in here running your chops about **** you have no clue on and I have to shut up?
<6> nobody in this room thinks Grangee knows anything
<3> my balls itch now
<10> FenrisWf you are both wrong and right
<10> if a ups takes a direct lighting hit, chances are everything is canucked
<3> it doesnt even take a direct hit
<10> but they do make lighting arrestors for the whole subpanel that can shunt most of the charge away
<3> Not only that, but not even a full-fledged lightning protection system with rods, cables and grounds will guarantee against damage to electronics and computers. For any system to provide 100% protection, it must divert almost 100% of the lightning current from a direct strike, which is nearly physically impossible
<3> thanks, I am here all week
<6> Yes, but Grangee thinks that a ground wire connected to a roof TV antenna or satellite dish proves that he can protect his computer from a power line strike. he must be flamed. its only right.
<3> Lightning current often peaks at 100,000 or more Amperes. With that in mind, consider if you have a lightning protection system installed, and your house is hit directly by lightning. If the protection system takes even 99.9% of the current, then your electrical wiring may take the remaining 0.1%. 0.1% of 100,000 Amperes is a 100 Amp surge through your lines- which may be enough to take out your computer.
<9> a good ups will protect you against an electric strike
<0> Ever consider educating me rather than flaming me?
<9> if the jumpers in your fuse box don't first
<9> grangee: you're asking us for information, not us asking you
<3> you started the flaming, all I did was turn on the gas
<9> fenris is just tryign to help you
<3> I know
<6> lightning will fry ur UPS, conduct through a ham sandwich, then a cat, then your mousepad, and still have enough power to blow up your computer
<0> Why were you flaming me before then?
<3> it is just when someone starts out with an attitude I have to ramp up
<3> no offense Grangee
<9> chuknoris: depends on the UPS
<0> HAHA NONE TAKEN!!
<9> if it's a piece of ****, yes
<0> XD
<3> its just that you canme in here and started asking a question when you already had an opinion and answer formed
<3> canme=came
<9> most good UPSs have jumpers
<9> i mean fuse
<3> the bigger ones, ie, APS 1000XL and 1400XL and such have BIG spade fuses
<11> whats the difference between adaware enterprise and professional? which one would i want?
<9> not fuse... guh, circuit tripper
<0> FenrisWf, I was just looking for advice on how to protect my computer through a storm without having to discontinue work.
<9> can't remember the name for it
<3> I wouldnt worry about it, what I was trying to say is, yes, use an ups, but, dont think it is a silver bullet
<9> it trips the circuit, it'll kill the power to the ups
<0> I know that it's pretty much impossible to be completely protected from lightning. But measures can be taken.
<3> if it strikes outside your joint though, you might be up **** creek without a paddle
<9> but you also have a fuse box that does that too
<6> adaware pro will make adaware 68% efficient vs 67.8% with regular version
<9> which protects ALL your electronics from a direct lightning strike
<9> or if a transformer blows
<3> just make sure that you coat the neighbors house with alot of shredded alumminum :)
<3> that or install the cb tower right beside them
<0> LOL FenrisWf, to conduct the lightning away?
<9> well... transformers and circuits blow all the time
<3> damn straight :)
<0> cb tower?
<9> for lots of reasons
<12> lightning hit our transformer and the surge protector didnt stop it
<3> cb radio
<0> I have a large property 10+ acres.
<12> blew out our router and power supply on our server
<5> anyone have a HAM scanner that they can sell
<9> i've only heard of 1 person ever having a lightning strike kill his computer
<0> So I could set up a lightning tree or something.
<9> and it didn't kill his computer
<9> it killed EVERYTHING in his house
