<0> just.. IGNORE IT ;x
<1> har... nooooo..... brand new motherboard.... it must be *prefet* x-|
<0> your using windows.
<1> perfect even
<0> and you bought a asus.
<0> give up now and save yourself some grief and frustration.
<1> well I wasn't about to go msi, the biostar is so dead it's not even funny, soyo apperently is more or less out of the business *shrug*
<1> & I'm only running windows till I get that data backed up & install the satas I have on order from atic :-p
<1> then it's dual win/suse
<2> cabbage patch snatch
<1> hmm.... better find out if suse likes raid 1st actually
<0> should
<0> and uhm..
<0> DFI?
<0> even gigabyte :\
<1> gigabyte is so-so I hear... dfi... some ppl swear by them some ppl call them value... in the end it was just simpler to go with what everyone raves about :-p
<0> and by 'everyone' you mean 'stupid fanboys' ;x
<0> but anyway
<0> enjoy.
<1> tired of trying to bug shoot this damn thing... since jan I've spent ~$1100 trying to get the problems out of it
<0> hahaha
<0> ouch :x
<1> sigh... orignal prob was bad ram but it seemed to be motherboard
<1> & things went down hill cause I choose to replace the motherboard & not the ram :-)
<0> that happens.
<3> Rukk you said what? i see no reason at all why would a hdd need airflow apart from temperature issue
<0> diezel: because watercooling the sides of the drive will take care of every possible temperature issue.
<0> go work the hard drive for 5 minutes
<0> then put your fingers all over it
<1> oh well...should be decent finally... good psu, decent motherboard, ram is running full speed & I'll stress it after I update drivers & bios... cpu actually got cooler
<0> feel whats hot
<0> if jmlsteele was here I would make a elaborate comparison between touching a hard drive and touching a woman, but seeing as he's not, I dont feel it necessary :x
<3> i suppose a cooler could touch bottom chips too, they are opened on my hdds
<3> they need to be stuffed in something, otherwise they'll be too loud. i have my PC in the next room because it's too noisy
<3> and my mom is bitching about it
<0> still living with the rents eh? suddenly this whole lack of understanding wtf I'm talking about is making sense.
<3> i'm 16 you fukk
<0> so what?
<0> I dont give a **** how old you are.
<3> so it's not unusual that i live with my parents
<4> what are we arguing about this time?
<4> thanks Rukk
<0> yeah man. its bad tonight.
<4> it's 10 in the morning here
<0> or morning, or whatever.
<4> so what did I miss?
<0> not too much. bunch of morons.
<0> and Jen molesting me publically for about 30 minutes.
<1> hmmm
<1> do sata drives have a pin for temp monitoring?
<4> hmm diezel's in Croatia
<4> they have an internal temperature sensor buried somewhere on the pcb
<0> does it have its own pin though?
<0> doesnt seem likely :x
<0> but I could be wrong
<4> don't think so
<1> so look to the manufacture's page to find software that would report from the sensor?
<4> Rukk: all the tweens are out of school now
<4> this summer's gonna be hell
<0> Shadowc4t: yeah. thank god I'm going to be getting out for the summer in a couple weeks :)
<4> Ghostwolf: or any software that can read smart entries
<0> spend a few months on the water
<1> ah ok
<1> asus probe doesn't... have to look around. what temp should the drive be btw? cause my 2 drives are like 1 mm apart
<0> not more than 5-10c above case temp.
<4> "too hot" would be my designation
<1> here we go... I'll try http://www.snapfiles.com/download/dlhddthermometer.html
<1> 41 for my non-sata which is 6 degress above case
<1> sata isn't there though...
<1> hmmm
<1> hope I don't have to replug that drive in... got it on the slave sata header instead of the master sata header by accident
<4> err
<4> sata has no concept of master/slave
<1> well that's how the motherboard refers to it
<4> someone should shoot the guy who wrote the manual
<0> sata controllers refer to ports numerically
<1> no no... not the manual
<1> the motherboard :-)
<0> if 1 and master and 2 is slave.. then yeah
<1> bios
<0> other than that, no.
<1> ok.... time to go repack that pos biostar
<4> biostar?
<4> what did you fry this time?
<5> Ooh boy, I'm back.
<0> so you are.
<4> kicktoy?
<0> nah, dont abuse it unless it links to its stupid forum post again.
<5> Pft, 'stupid forum post' ?
<1> oh the biostar had been on a slow death sine I got it
<5> And it? What, am I some kind of robot?
<5> Does not compute...
<4> figures, he's from #xbox360
<4> that channel's full of lamers, including neeber
<5> Elitism, w00t!
<6> hey, I'm on xbox360
<1> 1st the ram wouldn't run at 400... then the floppy controller -then the usb headers went hay-wire & finally just last week the sata headers died taking all the data on my 250 gig with it :-)
<5> Dude, you're lame, too.
<5> :p
<0> just. ****ing. behave.
<4> Limitz: behave, and you'll stay
<4> if you don't I'll turn you into a kicktoy
<5> Hey, I've been behaving.
<1> xbox306... thing is way over priced.. they want like $120 for a 20 gig expansion hdd for it
<6> don't buy the core
<6> aka "tardpack"
<4> Ghostwolf: it's just a rebranded "mac" anyway
<1> won't buy any of them
<1> hahah
<6> can do that too
<1> exactly what I was going to say! :-D
<5> Xbox 306?
<1> it *is* a mac!
<5> Didn't quiet make it... :p
<5> quite*
<1> only with games & will probably crash...
<4> PowerPC architecture, smells a lot like a mac to me
<1> ati graphics too
<4> and Apple has gone back to building IBM PCs
<4> the circle is complete!
<6> course macs run on x86 architecture now
<6> mac fans must have **** themselves when jobs came up with that one
<1> heh... well it's no surprise they went x86... darwin has had an x86 since 10.0.1 or something
<5> It's called a 360 because Microsoft went through some steps and ended up right back where they started.
<4> consoles are of no interest to me
<5> Wii > all
<5> :p
<5> Anyway, hardware stuff.
<5> What's quieter while idling?
<5> 7900GTX or x1900xt?
<6> I doubt you'd ever notice a difference
<5> I'm just trying to have a quiet setup.
<5> My current setup is noisy like crazy.
<6> actually so is mine, need a new case, but it's not the cards it's the case fans causing all the noise
<7> I hate nintendo for some reason :<
<5> Yeah.
<6> the wii looks kinda cool
<5> I have 80mm all over.
<6> especially if it's dirt cheap
<5> Going with 120 this time.
<5> I can't wait for the Wii.
<5> Super Smash Bros. is my favorite game.
<5> Hopefully it's releasedearly next year.
<0> if the wii is actually a success though..
<5> But it'll probably be out by Nov 07 :(
<0> it'll set a precident as far as what console manus actually look at when designing their new systems
<6> considering how expensive the PS3 is...
<6> the 360 hasn't a prayer in japan that's for sure
<0> as opposed to "OMG LOOK NEWEST GRAPHIX"
