<1> what
<1> should it be lower
<2> anyone read my question?
<0> Well I figured out why I was idling 4 degrees above normal
<0> Thermal ****ing paste. When I put switched processors, I cleaned the thermal paste off of both heatsinks, then reapplied the paste to the X2's heatsink, but NOT TO THIS ONE.
<0> And yet, in all the mounds of rubble in my flat, I do not have a tube of the stuff
<3> CJDeak: ur pissed off as well
<0> mhm
<3> i think my mobo is dead

<3> good luck
<3> i dont know what to do with my system
<4> What is XP media center does it make the core XP different?
<0> No
<0> It's just an add on to XP Home that allows you to control your media (movies, pictures and music etc.) from your TV, and makes it easier to interact with a remote
<4> Ah sweet
<4> i found a decent deal for a computer in best buy this week which i may get
<4> i could just upgrade the video card to a x800 gt or a 6800 BFG
<4> http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=999949800050007&type=product&productCategoryId=pcmcat18700050010&id=pcmprd50000050007
<4> the rest seems pretty good

<4> and i may be doing alot of photos movie stuff etc
<4> and some gaming
<5> easier to build your own
<5> and cheaper
<1> i cant figure out what is wrong with my box
<4> but i have no experiance at all in making my own :/
<1> it says my cpu temp is 65-67C
<1> but i can touch my heatsink an it doesnt burn me
<1> its not evne that hott
<4> i wana learn :/ tho
<1> an my stupid floppy drive isnt workingn
<1> so i cant flash my bios
<4> ghetto drives
<1> ya
<1> i got the floppy for a joint
<1> cause i wanted a black one
<1> to go with my black system
<4> heh
<4> im to young to need a floppy drive
<1> LOL
<4> im only 15 :/
<1> i got 2 zip drives
<4> heh
<1> 1 floppy drive
<1> 3 dvd writers
<1> an a EQ
<4> lol wow
<4> your not as bad as my friend
<4> who found this case that has 8 places to put drives in
<6> If you were to design a 1-2 TB storage windows file server, how would you design your system? The system must use RAID so that each HD has a backup in case of failure. Would you try adding all this hardware in 1 PC? Perhaps external USB cases to connect more hard drives? Or would you use professional rackable gear? Or would you use multiple PCs (2 file servers with 1 TB each)? Whats the most cost effective way to setup a reliable b
<4> he put in 2 floppys 4 dvds and 2 cds !_!
<4> wow
<1> lmao
<4> 4 gigs of ram plz
<1> 2 floppys is undeed
<1> thats why i got a zip an a floppy
<1> an a external zip
<4> he was being arrogant
<4> heh

<4> i heard
<4> i forget
<1> hmm
<4> 6 me thinks is correct
<1> i should have enough
<1> if i drink slow
<1> get a lil buzz on
<1> an save the rest til game time
<1> i think the steelers are gunna win
<1> i played 2 games of madden last night steelers vs seahawks
<1> an steelers won
<7> hah
<4> :P
<4> ill do it again later
<4> My friend whos a madden noob decided to do full team sim as the pats
<4> total control in 06
<4> and he lost to the browns -_-
<4> in the wildcard
<4> i slapped him upside the head
<4> said nice job nub
<1> hehe
<6> anyone got smart ideas on building 1-2TB file server cheapily with RAID mirrored HDs? Do you think its cheaper to build 2 PCs to get this much storage, or should I look for some sort of profesional-grade equipment?
<1> lmao
<1> 1pc
<1> use raid controller
<1> an IDE
<1> or SATA
<1> cause you can buy promise tech PCI raid controller cards
<6> you think its a good idea to run 8 HDs in 1 PC?
<1> as long as u have at least a 550w psu
<1> what kinda cpu do u have in mind
<4> 8 HD's unless you stash a boatload of porn or something
<1> you would want something with low power consumption
<6> CPU doenst matter. Ill probably get a low powered sempron
<1> like a celeron or somethinjg
<1> or a duron
<1> ya or a sempron
<1> dont load it down with a big video card
<6> ok, this could work
<6> nope, onboard video perferred
<1> k
<1> an onboard sound
<4> ewww semprons
<6> I wont have speakers plugged into this
<4> this comp im on has a loud celeron :(
<1> then use the pci for PCI raid cards
<6> its gonna be a headless PC
<6> no monitor
<1> cool
<1> itll work
<6> so who makes the best raid cards?
<1> Promise Tech
<4> are you making a external HD case?
<4> or something?
<1> no
<6> no, Ill put em all in the case
<1> hes makeing a server box so to speak
<4> ah
<6> think I should get HD coolers for HDs to sit in the 5.25 drive slots?
<1> it wouldnt hurt
<4> so you have a buiness or your running a server for a game?
<6> feudel, I rip all my dvds and cds to my file server media machine. I rip in lossless format
<6> I need lots of space
<4> Ah
<4> a big mule sort to speak
<6> and I need raid for backup
<1> you gunna mirror
<6> yes
<1> ahh
<1> ya youll need alot of space then
<6> I dont know of any other cheaper way that is as reliable
<1> theres something else
<1> but i cnat think of it off hand
<4> im about to throw this heavy CRT at my dad
<4> hes sitting not 6 feet away from me and hes chew so ****ing LOUD
<6> whats he eating?
