That is a bit difficult to put into words but the essential meaning is to: Not lose one's resolve. Not waver from one's goal. Forge ahead with one's ambitions in a time of challenge. ****** Lastly, I found this in an online dictionary: "An attitude of determined endurance or restraint in...

We know, Simon. Was just pulling your leg a little...

Frankenstein's Monster Update The YS Tech TMD-Fan has been removed and replaced with an 80mm Vantec "Tornado" fan. This is the loudest and highest airflow 80mm fan available. It spins at 5700rpm, flows 84.1 cfm, and is rated at 55.2 dba noise by the manufacturer. (A review site actually...

Looks like I will have two YS Tech TMD fans to unload. (70 X 15mm) I won't be giving those away, though. They were a bit pricey.

Ohhhhh, primarily a CS guy, then...

An Aureal SQ2500 soundcard, cables, fans, fan accessories, and (heh) a pair of 3D glasses.

Welcome Mars, and thanks for throwing some horsepower into our folding team.

Even though I disdain Starbucks I will go there on occasion to get a Chai. Either hot or iced (depending on the temperature outside). Chai is a weird tasting drink and seems to be an acquired taste given the reactions I've noted from friends that I've had try it. Still, it is the one thing that...

Just use a good rheostat. My method is to take a newly acquired fan and hook up to a spare 12v rail through a rheostat in a test harness. The rpm sense lead is connected to the unused motherboard chassis fan header. I will connect everything then start increasing resistance on the fan until it...

Too bad I didn't know that when you bought the 36ES off of me. I had a lot of spare stuff I would have thrown in with it. I've got all of it cleared out now.

That's just it. I am about ready to remove them from my bookmarks.

Simply appalling. That POS needs to be towed out into a junk yard and shot up. I'd pay money to be the first person in line to empty a clip into it.

Congrats, Coug. How is your new home working out, BTW? --Steve

I looked all over for it with no luck. Apparently, the home page of the guy who makes these clips is here: http://www.pointlessaudio.com/ Maybe if you are really determined, you could register for their forum and go ask someone in there where it could be found. Good Luck. --Stephen

80 CM ? That would be a pretty stout fan, all right. 31" across. :wink:

I keep it under 60°C. I know it can run hotter but I prefer not to.

Full day heat update: With the ambient temperature now at about 86°F/30°C I am seeing that the SLK-800 with TMD-fan is up at 59°C. It looks like I am going to need a more powerful fan to keep it cooler than that. Too bad the 80mm TMD fans are not on the market yet...

I can forgive you for that statement, Tea, since you are more affluent on bananas than case fans. Tannin, however, should be well aware that there are at least 9 different Papst 80 X 80 X 25mm 12volt fans to choose from. Some are quiet, some are not. I still think Papst makes the best quality DC...

I don't have the power output numbers either but believe that the GF3 radiates too much heat for passive cooling. The Crystal Orb is better quality than the Blue orb, I have used both. It will remove more heat from the GPU at a given fan speed than the Blue orb. They are not expensive, either...

I would think that the GF3 Ti500 makes too much heat to dissipate with passive cooling. This guess comes from owning and using third party cooling methods on both an original GF3 and a GF3 Ti200. I would suggest installing a ThermalTake Crystal orb on the card with Arctic Silver III compound...

I have the ThermalRight SLK-800 with 70mm YS Tech TMD-fan installed. The installation process wasn't bad although I don't like the fan retention clips at all. I'd rather use machine screws going into a threaded boss or nut than these flimsy things. The TMD has a weird characteristic of its...

I have been using IDE zip drives for backup since they came out. A 100 meg model first, then upgraded to a 250 meg once they became available. I have never had a bit of trouble with either of the drives, the 250 that I mentioned above is still used daily. The cartridges, unfortunately, have a...

I've made my contribution to the planet. After a visit to the urologist earlier today, I am now sporting permanent built-in birth control.

Yes... No problems.

To not bog down the thread with an overload of images, I will remove old tables when I post new ones.

My wife adores Pyramid Apricot Ale. She certainly doesn't have to worry about me filching her supply of them...Bleah :eekers:

Team Austech outscored us today 221.22 to 207.15 They lag us by only 22.69 in the weekly score.

Sorry about the double post. My internet connection hiccupped as I was trying to submit it.

Well, at this point I can only offer an update on my procurement status: I have the TMD fan in my possession. It is nicely quiet for a 5800 rpm unit. I am happy to report that my existing 50-ohm rheostat will work just fine in adjusting the fan, should I want to. I found that it took 43 ohms...

OK. I have read and understood those parts. Now where does it say: "...And allow me to heap scorn and ridicule upon your responses if I deign to do so..." ??? I must have missed that somewhere.

Yesterday while I was daydreaming about being able to afford a second PC, I came across a three-way Athlon duallie motherboard review over at Lost Circuits Check it out if you're curious.

I wasn't trying to be defensive in response to your post Coug....I was just joking. My single computer is just doing the best it can and that's that. I was playing with MAME last night and found that as long as it is running FAH stops completing cycles. Too bad. If I get the urge to play...

Ship out a dual Athlon XP rig to me Coug. I will run it from here for you. :wink:

No. You're thinking of StrawberryWire or the even more sinister TuttiFruttiWire. LimeWire is harmless. (Just kidding) Actually this LimeWire seems to be a popular carrier of spyware, trojan-horse viruses and other parasites. Exercise caution.

I would...Especially its-fubar. His writing style and means of expression almost certainly portrayed him as an "English as a second language" type. It struck me as very amusing how he would end almost every sentence with an exclamation point. Trinton, on the other hand, was a bit more...

OK guys, I have seen some very interesting new developments in cooling gear. ThermalRight has come out with a new Socket A cooler called "SLK-800". It was given a very good review at HardOCP in which it beat a Swiftech MC462! Also over at Dan's Data it is the new record holder in his huge cooler...
