Back into modded Skyrim. I swear sometimes it's more fun setting up the mods than it is actually playing

I guess I was really lucky with my 2600K. I clicked some kind of 'auto-overclock' button in the BIOS, and it set the CPU to a max of 4.47Ghz.

Slay the Spire and modded Minecraft are my two main games atm. Almost got to the point of uninstalling hearthstone, a game that is easily my least favourite of all games I've played... and yet keep on playing...

Skyrim. 600 hours gameplay, and this is my first time fighting for the douchebag Stormcloaks. I suspect this once will be enough. Morally corrupt, self-serving, and just plain obstinately stupid for not seeing that "united we fight, divided we fall" adage holds true for them. Weirdly enoug...

Currently reading the last book of Gene Wolfe's The Book of the New Sun quadrilogy, and Jeff Vandermeer's Southern Reach Trilogy. BotNS is overrated imo - little known words and obtuse prose doesn't mean good writing. The Southern Reach trilogy was started because my sister wanted me to vet it as sh...

Ditto on the rec for the Audio Technica ATH-M50x.

Progressive Psy I think.

And it's a good idea to check hashes before installing *any* ISO. This protects you against both corrupted downloads and tampered ISO images. Unless the hackers updated the md5sum listed to reflect the tampered ISO, which I assume they did this time, as I believe they changed the website as well as...

I think I managed to fix my issue, which was a known bug with encrypted, separate swap partition not being used. I followed answer 4 at the bottom of this page: https://askubuntu.com/questions/341979/what-to-do-about-the-disk-drive-for-dev-mapper-cryptswap1-is-not-ready-yet-or Maybe this is of use t...

I'm a new user of Mint 17.2 XFCE too. Also having the same symptoms with memory, with 8GB RAM. If I play Minecraft (4GB assigned), and watch Twitch at the same time (using Chromium). I THINK my issue is more related to Chromium's known memory leak, but your issue makes me be less sure of that. Have ...

It's been about 10 years since I cut the cord. I don't have a TV (wall space completely covered with bookcases), and my PC replaces any tv/film based entertainment.

We Sdelete/dBAN followed by a trip to the HDD chewer-upper/grinder. It meets ISO standards afaik.

I thought the CPU was at 75% when in the BIOS, and not idle? Or has this changed now?

Count me in
GL everyone.

Well, there are 3 hdd IDELED connectors inside the case as well, so it makes sense.

I have the 3700BQE; up here in Western Canada, it's about C$30 cheaper than the Sonata.
I imagine it's a mixture of the Sonata being so popular therefore having its price increased, and the BQE being new and hence Antec doing a loss leader?

There's other ars peeps here? Yikes, hadn't noticed.
Anyways, I agree, this is a great site.

Not really a mod, but the real BIG maps with low grav in Unreal Tournament rock my world. Especially with instagib or Strangelove.

Re: lines. I notice them ocassionally. Only very rarely, enough to annoy me.

Trying to get back into UT. Just need to reinstall, and I'll be halfway there.

Not yet. Just upgraded for better stats on DC projects. Next one will be dual 1900+ AMDs.

I have the Samsung 900NF. Very pleased with it. Couple of points: suposedly text not as crisp as 900DF, but color better than DF. At 16x12 on DDR Radeon, text is OK (no more)

For me, F@H, G@H and Ubero are the most worhtwhile.
