I'm really, really tempted to pull the trigger on one of those new "ultrablade" class like the MSI GS70 or the Gigabyte P35, but I'm having a hard time finding laptops to compare to them. They all use the 765m, which should likely be fine for casual gaming like SC2 or Skyrim (not maxed out)...
With jellybean you can still do bluetooth tether, I know that for sure, but I also believe you can do USB tether. Ideally I'd like it to be something I can freeze at 4.0 and have him use wifi with so there's less hassle. I'll look into the Razr and Nexus -- I haven't had much luck with HTC. It...
I have had a line on my Verizon account with grandfathered unlimited data just as a hotspot for my father to use. No one uses it as a phone. It has an original Motorola Droid on it right now but it's starting to show its age. I'd like to get a 4g phone (which can be upgraded retaining the...
Thanks. I see stuff like this and read too much into it I guess.
The reason I'm leaning toward the G.Skill is that I know the heatspeaders will fit with the combo H100 and Sabertooth in my case. I really doubt the Corsair Vengeance line or even those TridentX dimms would fit. Just antsy that I...
Accidentally picked up 1333mhz ddr3 when I wanted 1600mhz and now that I'm returning them, I'm trying to figure out which memory to replace it with. It was G.skill, and Newegg has this on sale but I don't know if it's compatible with the Sabertooth z77 board I have. The spec sheet on Asus'...
Just a follow up -- the netgear genie program that the router comes with was trying to "fix" the connection constantly, making it impossible for me to edit the settings I needed to. There's an advanced section that is in the wireless menu on the GUI once you actually get into the router (which I...
Thanks for the reply; that is exactly what I was hoping to do but I can't get it to pick up and use an IP address from my 2wire router. It refuses to even let me in to configure it if I don't have something plugged into the Internet port.
I had been using a lot of switches and the 2wire residential gateway that the Uverse came with to run my local area network which includes a home media server, along with a trendnet router as a wireless access point. I wanted to upgrade to 5ghz so I bought a fancy netgear R6300 but it insists on...
Not an issue, have a fiance with a rig of her own. Thanks for the pep talk though. :awe: The pump thing just bugged me because I splurged for cougar fans. I could've lived with it but since it's a known issue, I wanted to address it within the return window. I don't do anything that requires a...
Looks like it's stable with 4.4 and 1.2v. If I want to get to 4.5, I have to move mine up to at least 1.24 and I haven't done as much stability testing with it yet. Anything lower blue screens when I start playing with Prime. The H100 keeps the temps after an hour of IBT at a max of 75C for two...
Thanks! Looking good so far. I reset to the suggested settings and then put the multiplier at 44 and 1.2. Left everything else alone and ran IBT for a bit. Only got to 68C hottest core after 10 minutes. Now letting Prime95 run for a while. Thanks for the help. Anything else to tweak?
Okay, so having never messed with a graphical BIOS or manual overclocking, I'm completely lost. I can't figure out what settings to tweak in this bios. How many different things do I need to be adjusting? It seems like no matter what I do, the CPU is throttling and I'm rarely seeing the full OC...
So now I'm concerned about the gigabyte board. I'd liked it because it had a good auto-overclock that kept the turbo enabled from what I've read but it seems like there are a lot of 2nd hand complaints about it. I've started getting parts (my 3770K just arrived today and I should be getting the...
