Seems like you're doing more and more storage lately. Did you raid those four? If so, what kind of speeds did you get?

Sleepless · Jan 11, 2014

I absolutely love threads like this so I'll add what photos I've taken into the mix. The first two are hardware that is in my current system and the last four are from an older system that was running windows 98. Also adding a link to my Flickr for anyone who wants to see the photos in a much higher resolution.

First time I post here so can someone tell me why it's called "Sexy" ? I see no girls in underwear or bikini posing with hardwares.

Thanks for the comment. I shoot all of my photos with a Nikon D5000, and all of the ones I posted are taken with the 18-55mm "kit lens" that came with the camera. I don't shoot in a studio but the first two photos I used an off camera flash, for the others I actually used an led flashlight (not the most fancy thing ever haha, though it is powerful and the light is nearly pure white) and some mirrors and white printer paper to reflect and bounce light till I got what I wanted.

rougal · Jan 12, 2014

Found my other lost and forgotten powersupply in my store...
Upgrade or sidegrade?

from HX650w 80+ Bronze to Thermaltake Toughpower Grand 650w 80+ Gold..

Closeup shot...

Dusty and can't clean it without voiding the warranty...

Bigger is Better?

New Hardware! Happy Days!

Next on the menu: Delidded 4770K and 32GB of Dominator Platinums meet the Gigabyte. :toast:

Lopez0101 · Jan 18, 2014

7970M anybody?

GPU was throttling under load, so I took it apart to re-paste it.

Also, this is my first post since February 2010, lol.

i am happy to have a K8D Master3-133-FA4R tho i would prefer the SCSI version Master3-133-FS

1 year TPU anniversary in 2 days, what a good way to celebrate!

Norton · Jan 18, 2014

@d1nky

Check that cpu socket really good- the area marked (below) looks a bit strange:

*Note- it could be just the way the light is hitting it- bent pins in Intel sockets are quite possible though

d1nky · Jan 18, 2014

i checked it for around half an hour and compared pics etc. that pic is probably the lighting.

AHHHHH... to be proud of AMD it bring me tears and nostalgia... i almost want to sell my Intel mobo/cpu and get a Kaveri setup, mostly to get benefit of having 2133 RAM instead of running it at 1600 on my DQ77MK.

d1nky · Jan 20, 2014

i got an email from AMD wishing me happy birthday, kind of felt guilty im selling all my AMD shit to fund all intel haha!

Too much noise. See if you can set the ISO lower or add some decent light.

Random Murderer · Jan 22, 2014

Haven't gotten the chance to play with it yet, hence it being in the box, but it did give me a chance to try my new camera's macro:

Yeah I know, actually the camera is quite old and belongs to a friend. And the light is on the opposite side. Next time I get that camera, I will try to lower the ISO setting. Thanks.
