What you see in your backyard ends in value at your fence. You are also under the mistaken assumption your opinion is of greater value, accuracy, or whatever you care to call it. What valuable stuff can you leave in your backyard and what are the threats for a woman out there? I suppose that thieve...

while a fan on the heatsink will be more effective at cooling the heatsink, it wont be as effective at exhausting the air from the case. You can have your cake and eat it too if you use the full HR-01 setup. Thermalright makes the HR-01 plus. It was originally designed as a passive heatsink. It is ...

while a fan on the heatsink will be more effective at cooling the heatsink, it wont be as effective at exhausting the air from the case. given that, there's no real reason to not mount an exhaust fan..

And now, we are being impatient with another responsible (Democratic) president for not turning the ship of state quickly enough? Exactly Neil, but the scary hate mongering is mostly because he's dark skinned, not cause he's a democrat. what a ridiculous assumption. NeilBlanchard: obama is not bein...

Oh, and as far as my two cents on waiting for SATA 3 / 6 Gb/sec: The Crucial C300 128GB is $479 at newegg . Two Intel 80GB G2's cost me about $440 for 160GB. Hypothetically, in a 2 drive RAID stripe the two G2's will kick its butt. 500MB/sec seq reads vs 337MB/sec for Crucial 160MB/sec seq write vs...

go with the best tradeoff of warranty and price. that's something that can only be determined at purchase time.
