software raid, replacing motherboard

Cool thanks. Did you have to be careful about keeping the same SATA port numbers or anything?

software raid, replacing motherboard

System: p8z68-v pro / 2600k / bunch of drives My motherboard stopped working after what nearly 3 years of running nonstop. I guess I can't really complain. I have drives setup with their Intel software RAID, I'm worried about losing my data when replacing the board. So I figured the...

Had to return my S60 =[ but may be a blessing in disguise

Not the same models but take this for what it's worth. I have an ST50 that I used to game on w/o any issues, as long as I was in game mode. I gave the ST50 to my mom and bought a 65" VT60 which I don't notice any problems with input lag either. 75% of the time I don't even need to switch it...

Dell 24" 4K Ultrasharp

pretty much, especially the upscaling comments. gotta be a troll. Either a troll or, he may be deluding himself because he can't afford to buy better hardware. So he has convinced himself of a number of things, one of them that adding additional pixels above 1080p is worthless! And also...

Cheap, small touchscreen laptops (11.6" for $249 & $279)

I need to get my mom something to replace a huge C2D full tower she's been using, it keeps overheating (cleaning dust out etc didn't help) and I'd rather just buy her something new and portable anyways. All she does is Facebook, email, surf web, very light photo editing (cropping). I think...

Dell 24" 4K Ultrasharp

Huh? That makes no sense. So, by your logic, we should all game at 480p (or lower) because I mean, come on, raising the resolution isn't gaining you "much of anything".

3d monitor that will work with my ps3 as well as 3dvision or amd3d?

Title says it all. Does a monitor exist that will both support my PS3 as well as either NVIDIA vision or AMD 3d? I have some questions though: Does a monitor even exist that works with PS3 3D? Would it also support 3D movies? I've got two gaming PCs, one with an nvidia 680 (well, once it...

nvidia 690?

According to this quote from the 680 review: So nVidia didn't blow their load with the 680 release? They've still got a powerhouse under wraps.. have there been any leaks/rumors on when or what their next card released will be? I've got a 7970 but I really want an nVidia card on one of my...

Was at Fry's today.....YMMV

Yeah, be careful with their open box stuff.. I bought a GTX 580 that was ~$50 cheaper because it was an open box. I specifically asked the guys at the repairs / service counter if they tested the cards before putting them on the shelf, they said they did. Take it home and everything has...

AMD 3d usable?

Does this even come close to nVidias solution, all around? I've got a 7970 running 2x Dell 30" currently, I'd like a 2nd 7970 and also a 120hz 24" monitor for 3d gaming. If all goes well with that, then I would probably pick up a total of 6 of those 24"'s and bring my 30"s to my office...

Seriously considering new Macbook Pro 15"

I use a Macbook Pro 17" for work. I like my Mac, but for your use case I don't really see the point. For one, it sounds like you want to play games on it. MBP's are not meant for gaming, and will just frustrate you. The performance is disappointing to say the least, you wont be able to run...

??? I need to make an account to play Assassin's Creed II???

I think they've learned their lesson. AC:BH and AC:Revelations didn't have any crazy DRM schemes.

Is code commenting bad?

I don't understand your point. You're basically saying that Jr Devs (or inept devs) do dumb things. This applies to adhering to coding standards, sensible commenting, following best practices, etc.
