Schiit Freedom that's savage man. RAM's almost small enough to be chucked away with the packaging too; if you did that already? I'd check the bins, buts that's just me lol

orderd new ram yesterday to replace the set that went missing. I chose to delivery in 2-3working days instead of nextday which would have cost me an additional £8.50 and what happends?? Ebuyer sent it to me via nextday day so, instead of paying £8.50 for p&p, i only payed £1.50.

awesome result. and this is not the first time theyve done this either. theres been times where i chose the free delivery (deliverd within 5 days) option and they sent it to me nextday.

Grenadier Supplies did that to me with a load of stuff for my pellet gun last week. Upgraded to Parcelforce Express24 with no warning or extra payment. Nice eh?

Nope, he'll keep it (it's for someone else's rig) or sell it to me :D

Anyone ever watched a film called "Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood"? It's a p*sstake of Menace II Society, South Central, Juice, Boyz N The Hood, etc. it was one of the first Wayan's films. I first watched it when I was about 14 and I still watch it every now and again. Man, I've still got it on VHS lol

Someone upped the whole film on yt. Very funny if you've watched all those hood films from the era. Even funny if you haven't.

So you can't find that RAM, at all?

nope. i can remember picking it up and looking at it then putting it back in the box then it just completely poofed when it came around to finishing off the build. its a conspiracy i tell you. fucking aliens have landed looking for bin laden from their hubble telescope from space but found out he was already KIA so took my ram as a trophy

If you find the set at least you'll end up with 8GB of RAM.

:p

I was thinking that myself. Somewhere in this house theres 4Gb DDR3 floatin about, unmolested by bare human hands

Nope, he'll keep it (it's for someone else's rig) or sell it to me :D

Nope, it WAS for someone elses rig but already have replacements in. If i find it, you can have it but im not cutting the price lower then Ebuyers as i didnt even get to use the shit. and just because i opened it to have a look doesnt make it 'open box' so no discounted goods to be found here.

I loved that movie. It was hilarious. especially the crack addict walking around and saying "hey man! hey man! I'll suck your dick man!" fucking genius!!

------

the missing ram really confuses me. but im sure it will turn up once the room has been refurbed. mum will start cleaning the place up and low and behold it'l turn up under a pile of rags somewhere.

if that does happen then i will make her pay me what i lost. i didnt have the luxury of having free P&P this time as i didnt order over £150 of goods so the ram cost me a bit more this time around.

she needs to understand the amount of agro i went through just to get all the parts for this build otherwise she wont learn to consult ME before moving my stuff. because my stuff is worth a lot of money. and worse now because this stuff technically isnt even my stuff - its been paid for by someone else and i am providing a service which is now operating at a £40 loss.

Its like being a Being a bus driver but picking passengers up and dropping them off in a mini coupe. You are not a bus driver unless you drive a bus. the only exception here is fraudulent use of I.D and your drivers license

I was generally joking, but still PM me if you find them :p you never know.

The amount of phrases that me and my mates have jacked from the film over the years and used daily is ridiculous. Even my text message alert is "message MESSage MESSAAAAAGE!"
Here it is, I'm gonna remake it at some point as this one I made was just a recording from the tele that I snipped together.

very little benefit from running cooler tempretures on sandy-bridge so unless you want more noise at same clock speed...

If you have two you can run both at lower speeds no?

i'm sure the fans run on minimum most of the time anyway, sandy bridge is only 95w

well I was using it with 1 Akasa apache before but i swapped it out for the 2 fans that came with my Frio. I currently have both of them spinning at around 1300RPM. in the push pull configuration

currently 37'c idle and it goes upto something like 70'c to 72'c when stressing. I havent logged the temps when gaming just yet.

I think i might need to add more MX-4 thermal grease on the chip

sounds perfectly aright temp wise, to be fair with sandy bridge i'd give up on temps and just back the voltage down slightly so it would run quieter, i think i need a new keyboard as the buttons don't seem to be working well on this one, i turned it upside down and whacked it against the desk a few times but that doesn't seem to be fixing it well anymore

anyone know anything about this one, i saw it in staples and it looks really nice - http://www.logitech.com/en-gb/special-offers/blemished-box/devices/7610
