Got my hard drive swapped out so that pos is back to crunching. Anyone interested in buying a slightly used hdd with just a few bad sections? It's only like maybe half the drive is bad and you may get a couple good days out of it if your lucky.

I could take it for some "hard drive baseball."

LOL Actually I was aiming that towards @Norton , figured him and I could work out a trade. My shitty hard drive for his 4p rig. It's a fair deal, in my head. Yea, I think it is. I may be getting a little of the shaft on it but it's ok.

If you hadn't just shipped me a boatload, I'd take it... :laugh:

My boss wasn't happy with me today.

So normally I get home at 7am and can sleep til 3pm, but this week and half of next week is worse. Basically I get home at 10am and can sleep til 2pm.

My boss told me to get more sleep, and I need it.

Received my new tubing today, UV red Dreamflex by Modmytoys from Performance-pcs. Usually p-pcs is good for me, but it took forever to get here via priority mail, only 120 miles away :shadedshu:

Anyway I've never heard of the tubing before but I figured I'd give it a shot. Tubed it all up and threw some are in it, and 10 seconds later water is coming out like woah! I forgot to put the nut on the comp fitting underneath the res, and boom went the dynamite :laugh:

So cleaned it up, let it sit for a few hours to dry, and now just filled again without any crazy issue... yet. Letting it spin to leak test so I hope it's good. Should be back up by tomorrow evening.

edit: just posted somepics in the PC atm

Here's my favorite, cpu block gunk

Has anyone else run into this issue on ebay? You enter you maximum bid for an item and sometime later, someone exceeds it. So you say, ok, fine, I'm out. Then, that person withdraws their bid and it drops down to the previous level.

On ebay, it's not difficult to w/draw a bid. You just go to the retract a bid section here and say that you entered the bid by mistake and poof, it's gone - http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?RetractBidShow

What I'm wondering, is who would have the most interest in doing this. My guess is the person selling the item. They sign up for another account, log in from a vpn and see how the bidding is going. This way, if it looks like they're not going to get what they want, they can w/draw the item.

I have had it happen once. And I think you are right so I have adjusted my bidding tatics. I don't put my highest bid in up front. I keep track and wait till the auction is almost over then start active bidding.

twilyth · Mar 13, 2015

Well, I don't think it's the seller since he just posted a warning to fake bidders. I suppose it could be a double bluff but even I'm not that paranoid.

So it would seem that other potential bidders are in there trying to suss out the max bid.

theonedub · Mar 14, 2015

I think you are right in that its other ppl trying to find the current max bid.

That double bluff bit had me chuckling.

manofthem · Mar 14, 2015

Another possibility is that the seller cancels bids made by people with perhaps no feedback, negative feedback, bids from international areas, etc... Not sure :laugh:

Got the 4770k back up and running and crunching. I hit an issue when I first started back up: video was cutting out like crazy, like the flicker that happens during a driver update only it kept happening, but I wasn't updating the video driver. I'm pinning it on Razer; the synapse I think was updating and my mouse died though having charge so it had to be plugged in.

So after that, rebooted and couldn't find a bootable disc :mad:

This is when my daughter woke up so I had to step away for a little while. When I got back I unplugged the hdd, kept the ssd w/ os, rebooted and it worked. Finished Windows update, rebooted. Plugged hdd back in, rebooted again, and it booted back up alright.

Anyway, everything seems to be working for now, let's hope so. I'm hoping to do some gaming this weekend since I haven't been able to in like a month, and I miss it :cry:

HammerON · Mar 14, 2015

I will first start by stating that I apologize to all those who are missing posts now in this thread. I cleansed the thread of off-topic posts. The WCG team is a tight-knit group and I do appreciate that. With that said, it does not give us the right to disregard the general guidelines of the forum. Carry on and crunch away :toast:

I've had something similar happen to me a few times when selling. The price on an item shoots way up, higher than it was retail, and right before the auction ends, the high bidder withdraws and the item sells for next to nothing. I report both bidders as I believed they were working together: bidder #1 comes in with a high bid to grab the item, bidder #2 comes in higher to max out #1 and scare off any other bidders, then retracts the bid so #1 can get it very low.

twilyth · Mar 14, 2015

@t_ski - thanks. That makes sense. In this particular case I think someone just wanted to expose the max bid. I don't really care since it will hopefully be high enough to scare anyone off but if someone wants to out bid me, that's cool.

I'm really itching to build a new rig and retire one of the older servers. I will probably run all 4 for a short period of time but my electric bill is already ridiculous enough that I'm not running all 4 indefinitely.
