  1. He's trying to sound good and failing miserably. It doesn't take a great mind to realize Google exists and that you can find tonnes of encrypted platforms to communicate with other people in seconds.
  2. You need to provide the PHP if you want us to look at the code *edit* Actually I'm confused, which part isn't working?
  3. "GTA V coming to PC, fall 2014" - "Er actually make it January 27th." - "Actually nope how about March 24th?" Sigh, I don't want specs.. I want a release!
  4. I have a love/hate relationship with Elite, maybe it's because I'm still waiting for wings to be added or maybe it's because the Frontier team haven't replied to a single ticket I've sent them from last year. I go for weeks without playing and then play solidly for ages..

    Rust!

    I'll probably play it again when they've added more content to the new version.. used to play it loads when it first went up on steam.
  6. I think as others have said, for your own peace of mind it is easier to remain skeptical. I've had experiences I can't outright explain, but then again I can't outright explain why this MSI isn't deploying correctly either.. but I digress. When I was quite a bit younger, my grandmother and I were talking about my (recently deceased at the time) grandfather - she was saying that he was still in the house keeping her company, at that moment a picture of my grandfather that was on the mantle fell over. Really creeped me out at the time but my grandmother was fine with it, as if it happened to her all the time. I can't explain why it fell over or why it did so with such good timing.. but that doesn't mean there aren't 100 other likelier reasons than ghosts! Believe what makes you feel most comfortable, as long as you aren't messed up and trying to steal money from grieving people then it's fine.
  7. I reckon it was one of those spiders you're trying to flush out getting revenge on you.
  8. The inventory system isn't really worth using if you have more than around 100 devices - Spiceworks has a habit of throwing tantrums! I use it for the helpdesk which syncs with AD and it all runs perfectly, for the inventory/asset management it's better to use a 3rd party one.
  9. It's actually been hiding on your head the entire time!
  10. I've never seen the ads in games before.. though they do have a tendency to keep inviting me to apply for jobs (not really sure how they got my e-mail since I've never applied for one!)
  11. See As someone with OCD, the SpeedFan icon sitting staring at me can be a life or death situation! There is also the issue of power, some mobo headers may not be able to handle quite as much power as a direct-to-PSU controller can. This also means you'll get higher RPM speeds connected to the controller than the mobo. If you've got high amperage fans, you could burn out your mobo header plugging them into it..
  12. I used to use one of the products on that page and it was awful! sorry
  13. Actually, yes.. If I'm playing a game, I will want my ambient temperature to be cooler so I'll put all of my fans at 100%. If I'm watching a movie etc I want my computer to be silent so I'll creep the speeds down until I'm happy and temperatures are stable. I also watercool both my GPU and CPU and control the pump via my fan controller.. so yes, it's quite useful. I'd much rather have direct hardware control than use 3rd party software.
  14. Pretty much spot on, though I tend to disable it when I see it - I've read too many reports of it going wrong so I'd rather adjust manually!
  15. Most important thing is to just take it in small increments, doing large jumps is how you break things. Do a small increase, then play a game - if you don't get any artifacts and the temperature is stable then you can continue to increment. Obviously overclocking is quite dependent on your RAM too, what do you use?
  16. I'm using a NZXT Sentry 2, average priced but does the job perfectly! all fan controllers are pretty easy to set up! I used to use one which showed temperatures as well, but the little temperature gauges kept coming loose so I gave up on it.
  17. I want to be a Balrog (before they pretty much died out) - imagine how cosy it'd be if you were an entity of flame and shadow.. I pity the fool.
  18. +1, except I'm running arch linux instead. I want Windows 10 tech preview to fix their problems with Steam, then I might run that instead. You sound like a cannibal
  19. Just noticed the same thing.. here OP. Might wanna get that fixed!
  20. I use both consoles and I prefer the xbox design hands-down, they've always been more comfortable and ergonomic in my opinion. The Playstation design is good but I think they're reluctant to change it because of it's legacy.
  21. I don't really have any idea what's going on in this thread anymore. [ATTACH=CONFIG]28195[/ATTACH]
  22. Combination, all of the above. It's ALIVE! ALIIIIIVEEEEE!
  23. This thread is turning into an CPU war! that being said, the difference between an i3 and i5 is obvious - you WILL notice a difference. That is because most people do not use their computers PURELY for gaming, they will be using browsers, players, listening to music, a lot of the times multiple things at once. I know I run Chrome and Spotify at the same time while playing a game. In addition, everyone's missing the fact that you can get an i5 that's less powerful than an i3 and vice versa. There are hundreds of variations when it comes to Intel processing. You could get a top of the line i3 or a bottom of the line i5 for varying prices. You could get an i5 with a similar core clock speed to an i3 at a similar price range but you've got the added bonus of 2 extra cores.* *Prices obviously vary, I'm using PassMark for reference.
  24. You've obviously never played an Arma game.. or DayZ! *shudders*
