Im an engineerng student, i know how to silence my pc. When its quiet all i will hear is my parents and i dont know how to silence them.

Any suggestions?

The microwave oven was invented after a radar engineer accidentally melted the chocolate bar in his pocket.

I cant wait to see what will happen to computers.

That if global warming doesnt get us first.

The computers are dissipating more heat, but were doing more with them. Back in the day when a cpu dissipated 5W, you couldnt play a serius multiplayer game, watch DVDs and edit movies. Were paying more in heat energy but were getting more. Does anybody know which has increased more in the last 12 y...

to clarify my last post the enclosure was defective, but i accidentally forgot to send back all of its components.

I agree with chylld, a little delay is no real problem. Delays and defects happen, you just have to take your chances. I think its much more anoying when you order something and it doesnt work. I ordered a Bytec external Hard drive enclosure from newegg. The stupid thing didnt even turn on so i had ...

newegg.com uses fedex and ive never had anyproblem except them delivering the package earlier than they estimated. The online tracking works great.

I just ordered stuff from sites that use UPS and their tracking numbers dont work. Guess im just going to have to wait and see when the stuff comes in.

I heard that its safer to discharge the capacitors in a PSU.

How do you do that?

What do you use to clean of thermal compound? I dont want to damage anything.

no fans, do you want to watercool the PSU or buy one of those expensive fanless powersuppllies with huge heat sinks?

Also most watercoolers have fans on the radiator, so you would probably need a biger radiator if you dont have fans.

okay you got me sold im gonna buy some rubber molding too, lets have a party

yeah thanx, thats exactly what i thought

Weather stripping foam would work, it has an adhesive on the back and is available at any hardware store. Why are you sticking your hand into the fan blades on the back of your compueter? Another solution would be to use a dremel tool to grind off any sharp edges. But if your totallyn intent on stic...

Im about to do the same, my stupid grille is twice as bad as the one in the picture. it has a buncho of drilled holes in a decorative spiral pattern. I think it was engineered by a de-evolved monkey, I dont beleve in evolution. Well i didnt untill looking at my grille.

i guess this guy gave it a review

nexustek makes a cool looking product again http://www.nexustek.nl/memoryheatspreaders.htm What temps to RAM modules run at? Those memory modules arent any bigger than the ram, so i think the continous metal surface area is only about 2-3 times the chip surface area. not a huge improvement but i thi...

gimmic text: This feature is used in many of the luxury cars these days to extend the cooling time and increase the lifetime of the components. http://www.nexustek.nl/prolong.htm It has all the hints of a gimmick, luxury cars? What do they have to do with computers? maybe in cars its a good idea wh...

temp cant increase on any indivdual component. Now that i think about it the only thing that could even possibley hapen is with reduce airlflow in and out of the case the teimp in the case could increase untill everything is at the same temp. I know some components have higher temp ratings than othe...

Is this a real problem or is nexus tek just making money.

How would i get in touch with the people at silent pc review so they can test out this product and give us the verdict?

Why isn’t there a neither option? When you turn the computer of, all the components stop producing heat. The temperature of something producing no heat can only fall. When you turn the computer off, the fans stop dissipating heat almost immediatly and air stops flowing in your case and over your cp...

http://www.endpcnoise.com/cgi-bin/e/prolong.html It keeps your fans on for 5 minutes after you turn off your pc so that the temp doesnt immediatly skyroket on the hot parts and shorten there life. Couldnt someone write software that would shut down all the peripherals drives and processes on windows...
