ASUS U36SD-A1 Notebook Review Comment Thread
Nice, thanks. Doesn't really look like it's worth the eyesore to get an hour more of battery life. I only mentioned 16bit since that's what Asus sets their own battery saving profile to on my own ul- CroSsFiRe2009

Rants etc.....
After 4 months of trying to return the stupid LG O1 to Koodo after they f'd up my name on the contract (and yes I stupidly signed without verifying the correct name), I've given up. Hope my credit score doesn't get a hit but at this point I'm beyond caring. Nothing like them requesting shittons...- CroSsFiRe2009

ASUS U36SD-A1 Notebook Review Comment Thread
Haha, Sagath pretty much covered all the points of amazement with this laptop compared to my ole ul50vt. Asus does so many things right with these UL laptops but surprisingly neglects so many simple things too. That 0.3mp webcam, horrendous touchpad button (seriously wtf, cut the damn thing in...- CroSsFiRe2009

Noctua NH-D14 anygood ?
Friendly reminder if you use all 4 ram slots with heatspreaders, install the ram before mounting the d14 or else you won't be able to squeeze them in. And make sure your RAM isn't too tall, stuff like the Corsair vengeance (full/original) kits don't fit underneath. Happy oc'n!- CroSsFiRe2009

Rants etc.....
Stupid f*cking ssd. Bought one of those refurb Corsair Force 90gb ssd's from ncix for my ul50vt laptop. Performance is actually worse than my dying 500gb hitachi of all things which doesn't make sense since the ssd is blazing fast in a desktop. AHCI, trim etc are enabled and it's still slow as...- CroSsFiRe2009

Shattered Resale Value Dreams - i7 860/p7p55d pro
Got an opportunity to upgrade to a 2500k and a Gigabyte z68x ud3h b3 so I've been thinking of selling my current mobo and cpu which is an i7 860 and an Asus p7p55d pro (no usb3.0 version). What's the going rate of 1156 parts these days?- CroSsFiRe2009

Bitmining question
As much as I'd love to have bitcoin become a more recognized currency, I wouldn't be so sure of it unless it gains traction with better point of sale usability. The current setup verification requiring at least 6 blocks to be solved takes way too long. Then the topic of reducing the number of...- CroSsFiRe2009

Bitmining question
It's pretty simple actually. Say for example the entire network is 100mhash total, 5 blocks are solved every hour(or 250 coins per hour). If you have 1mhash of compute power, that's 1% of total network power. 1% of that 250 coins per hour is your btc/hour. Multiply that by 24 for your return per...- CroSsFiRe2009

Bitmining question
Bitcoin Mining Calculator and Bitcoin real-time stats and tools will be your best friends. Right now, I would not suggest buying cards just to do some bitcoin mining exclusively, it'll take forever to get a return back on your investment. However, if you already planned on buying (in your case...- CroSsFiRe2009

Which z68 motherboard is best?
I think the Gigabyte z68x ud3h b3 is a good candidate too. Not as high end or expensive as other boards but its got pretty much the same features unless I'm mistaken- CroSsFiRe2009

Best bang-for-buck Cards?
My 2 cents = NCIX.com - Buy XFX Radeon HD 6950 800MHZ 2GB 5.0GHZ DDR5 2XDVI HDMI 2x Mini DisplayPort PCI-E Video Card - XFX - HD695XCNFC - in Canada Only 20$ more than a 560 ti but if you ever decide on going eyefinity the 2gb vram will definitely help.

Budget Case for XFX 6950 2gb card
If it's the CNFC, the actual length is 10.2. It seems that ncix just puts 11.5 for all their cards which is incorrect. A 300 will fit it without a problem If you want to double check, look up your card number and match it up with the info on the xfx page. Graphic Card Models- CroSsFiRe2009

Budget Case for XFX 6950 2gb card
Another +1 for the 692. I personally love the look. However, if cost is a factor, the HAF 912 for $50 would be a better option if you can stand the looks. Much better case overall and will fit that xfx card With the 300, it says max length is 11" cards on the antec website so it won't fit if...- CroSsFiRe2009

GTX 480 SLI on Corsair TX750
TX950 is old, along with the HX1000 so they're not as efficient as the new ones out If you want the most headroom at the best price, I'd say the Antec 1200W LINK is your best bet. Fan isn't very loud even though it's an 80mm. If you want 120mm, the OCZ ZX 1250W for 170$ at ncix is good but...- CroSsFiRe2009
