Then get rid of your rear fan. The only advantage to having fans in push-pull is when there is very high resistance to flow. You do not have such a situation, and so you should get rid of the rear fan. The positive pressure created by the front fan will push air out the back. Also, get an Arctic Coo...

Panel Muffler
Inside my school bus back in high school, I remember that the roof had an inner layer with a piece of sheet metal with holes drilled in it like modder's mesh. Between that layer and another layer, there was a layer of some type of damping material, like open-cell foam or fiberglass or something. It ...

It's kind of like the Power Mac G4 Cube. Of course, it had an external power supply, but that was fanless as well. The G4 Cube had its share of problems, but it showed that convection cooling could be made to work rather well. If you remember, directly below the top vent was a large processor heatsi...

I like quiet computers. I could never sleep with my computer running, which used a 92mm fan pushing 44 cfm, and a Thermaltake Golden Orb. when I upgraded to a 1GHz Duron (still my main computer, if you can believe that), I bought a cool-looking HSF which used an all-copper heatsink and a clear 60mm ...

Yeah, I'm done with the thread. (So why don't I leave, already?) I thought Holding's article was pretty straightforward. The point is, in a nutshell, that it's highly unlikely, and downright rare, that the people who are posting these lists of 1001 Irrefutable Bible Contradictions, Inconsistencies, ...

Now, that doesn't make any sense, because it makes no allowance not only for thngs that will not subject themselves to testing (i.e. God), but things we can't YET test as well. I'll have to ask a professor here on campus, but it seems to me that your claim, that a hypothesis must be testable to be v...

Somebody: Must a hypothesis be testable to be valid? Also, I have not really taken a long time to look at the Godandscience.org web site. I guess one problem here is that God can't be measured, or physically sensed. This doesn't mean that it can't be observed whether something looks like it was desi...

Well, there's your source now. If you would read some of the stuff on the links I've provided, you could really gain a lot, I think.

Okay, as far as the Bible goes: You can blast me for taking the easy way out, but all you need to do is take a look at this page, and the wealth of information, and answers to challenges to the validity of the contents of the Bible, and I think that forms a powerful argument to its overall validity:...

Straker, perhaps you were missing the point of what I said. I was explaining how I can know certain things about God's nature. Some things are explicitly stated in the Bible, and others can simply be observed, and we can reason through to a conclusion about them. But without the Bible to give us rev...

Those who say we can't fully understand God are getting close, but have missed the mark somewhat. The reality is, what myself and other Christians are trying to say is that what we know about God has been given to us through revelation Not the Book of Revelation, just revelation in general. Since ou...

Trip, In another of Dr. Craig's debates, an opponent tries to make the case that the universe it actually not temporal. He proposes the idea of negative time. Since time is just a way of describing sets of simultaneous events that happen in sequence or something like that, Dr. Craig's opponent is in...

Suggestion! Cut a hole in the side/top of the Overture, right above the CPU cooler's fan, and then cover that with Modder's Mesh or something. Then install a thermally controlled fan in the rear, if the Antec you have is not already thermally controlled. It seems to me like your CPU cooler could ben...

According to a PDF file on the Sunon web site, the most ideal application for the MagLev fans is use in projectors, where very high air temperatures are found, and yet a low-noise bearing must be employed. VAPO bearings are designed to keep the shaft from contacting the sides of the bearing. The onl...
