    Not 100% sure if this type of thread is allowed or not so if it isn't please delete it. Was just wondering what you guys thought a fair price for the best ram types of each recent generation were. I.e. TCCD, D9GMH/D9GKX, PSC, Hyper, BBSE etc were. This would of course be for a fairly decent bin of each. Many thanks. Lewis.

  2. Alright, guys! Here's Unreal's latest engine, Unreal Engine 4 running on my triple-monitor setup. This is a next-gen engine that runs on a wide range of platforms including consoles, glorious PCs, mobile platforms, and even web browsers! Check it out and let us know what you think.

  5. Hey all, With this thread I would like to check the interest for a large European overclocking gathering. In simple terms, the idea is to overclock and bench for an entire weekend with LN2 provided by the organization. Also, there would be a live competitions for extreme and enthusiast overclockers. Nothing is set in stone yet, but it would be interesting to see how many people would be interested in joining this event. Some details Location: south of Germany Timeframe: end of March, beginning of April Price: EUR €30 for regular spot, EUR €60 for XOC spot (unlimited LN2) Would you go?

    Hey guys, Is there any software out there that'll allow me to modify it in an attempt to get my D9GKX modules to work? The board never POSTs with the modules installed but it works with D9GHM based modules. It's a nightmare and being a Rev 1.0, I can't even get the most up-to-date BIOS installed. I know these modules can do 600MHz 4-4-4-4 but they just do not want to play ball on this board, at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've tried a BIOS editor but it fails to load the BIOS correctly and as such corrupts it. There's only one out there that I can see as well. It's an AWARD BIOS if that helps. Thank you.

    Hey all, A friend of mine sent me a message if I knew any tech enthusiast who would be interested in the position of PR in Taiwan. I quote, "I'm looking for a new tech PR staff for a full time position. So I can provide official work permit, ARC and all what's required. The person should be English native level, any additional languages are of course a plus. The more tech knowledge the better, as he/she has to be able to understand our client's products and pitch the right angle to the right media and editors." This is not a company that is doing overclocking, but pure PR. He's looking for a more enthusiast minded person, so I figured why not post here. L…

    Hey guys, I was looking around to try and get some CPU trays so that I could try and keep my collection in as tidy a pile as is humanly possible. This hasn't been an easy task so far and I can't seem to find them anywhere at a decent price. This isn't such a big deal for my intel CPUs with the whole LGA business, but for my AMD chips I'm constantly worried about pins getting bent if I just put them all in a draw, any help would be appreciated. Lewis.

    SEVERE floods have struck the people in Serbia, Bosnia and Croatia these days, leaving thousands of children homeless, without food, water, warm and dry clothes. Roads and bridges are flooded and destroyed by the worst flooding in history. Schools and kindergartens have been shut down. 100,000 homes in Serbia and Bosnia respectively are left without power, while rain-swollen rivers and surging water course through towns and villages, overflowing across streets into homes, causing landslides and other disasters. The situation is so dramatic, that the entire families have lost their homes in the floods. Finding a shelter is a real adventure for many. The number of victi…

  11. I'm currently working with a team of scientist which have on their agenda a project that involves renouncing at semiconductors in favor of optical gates in order to improve different parts of a pc and not only. I am posting over here because it's one of the most known forums(sites) and maybe this project will see the light of day with your help by promoting it. I've attached a short presentation of this project,have a look and write down your opinions about it in this thread.

    Bitcoin: What You're Not Being Told Bitcoin major design flaw, that is inherent to the system, is the way it protect itself from used being able to use own Bitcoin twice. The way it do is to maintain blockchain, witch is list of all transactions with every Bitcoin since beginning to this second. And that list for every Bitcoin users on the world! Add there security hashes and you get exponencial grown of size of this blockchain. In August 2012 is was 2GBy. In August 2013 it was 9GBy. ...and right now we are at 11,9GBy. As anyone can see, with such exponencial grow of the size (the more Bitcoin is used, the more the blockchain grow) it this unsustainable: B…

    Hey guys, Just saw this post on one of the Taipei tech Facebook groups. Sounds like GBT might have an opening at the OC Lab for an overclocking position. So, who's willing to relocate?
