  1. I like the website and the number of people now better, but my god the servers were amazing back in the day.. when the 2 napalms were full 24/7.
  2. They did hit a wall in some way. Not to where "oh we can't make them go any faster because technology doesn't allow it", but more, "holy shit this stuff runs hot as fuck". And, because of this, like you said they restructured. And unless we find a new material that can dissipate heat vastly more efficiently, we will continue adding more and more cores. And as for the "why a new 1.8GHz CPU will outperform a P4", that has to do with more than just the restructure, you have to remember that even if software isn't threaded, the cores can work together, nearly effectively adding their processing power.
  3. just click OK would fix it. And as to your question, there's probably no simple answer beyond the obvious, you downloaded it from the servers, and then it passed its final CRC check, and so it had to be redownloaded to avoid corruption.
  4. have you tried lowering the resolution? - Just a thought. I always keep an eye on my CPU usage during a game too, because if the CPU gets overloaded (too many enemies or w/e on the screen at the same time) will force the fps to choke to all hell.
  5. 4 - 6 pm for CST that means 2 hours after work with nuffin to do
  6. it doesnt MATTER if they get shut down. EVERY single torrent that they have hosted has been hosted on other trackers now.
  7. this. not sure what church was talking about. your config is plain text that can be opened with notepad.
  8. unless your computer sucks ass, leaving it on all day shouldnt do shit. i leave mine on 24/7. now, leaving css open for no reason, that's just asking for trouble (memory leaks, for starters)
  9. i bet your video card is overheating.
  10. im going to hope this is a "game" or something... bc otherwise.. like 2 dwarves said.. google is ^ that way.
  11. thats a lie maxwell css brings me plenty of joy.
  12. gaming headset

    holy fuck thats over 40 USD. thats not what i would call cheap.
  13. i wont miss it. all of its torrents have been completely scraped to another tracker.
  14. boring troll is boring. you're supposed to rage.
  15. OMFG GUYS! A MEMBER OF THE CHICAGO DEBATE TEAM CHAMPIONS AND PEER TO MICHAEL JACKSON'S SON JUST TOLD ME I KNOW THE MEANING OF AN ELEMENTARY PHRASE!!!!!111oneone! I FEEL SO HONORED! :hail:
  16. This is the kind of attitude i figured you had and why I am trying to avoid harming your ego or anything (don't bother saying your ego is untouchable, because honestly, i don't give a fuck). Don't try to change it for some stranger online or even a massive group of them. You should do it for yourself and the people around you in person. I can't believe your parents actually let you act like this/ you have friends that accept you if you actually act like this all the time. And do it for yourself because I can't imagine acting like that and not hating myself. And for the 2nd red, not to be a grammar nazi but i REALLY REALLY hate when people fuck this phrase up. It's not that it is spelled wrong or anything, but all it accomplishes when you get the phrase wrong is make you look like a complete fool. To save you the trouble of trying to figure out what I mean, I'll tell you. It achieves, the EXACT. FUCKING. OPPOSITE. MEANING. that you wanted it to. The correct phrase is: I couldn't care less. Let's review why this sentence/phrase means what it does, shall we? -You are trying to figuratively say that you do not care about a topic -You are saying that you do not care about said topic SO MUCH, that you literally could NOT care less, because you care about it absolutely in no way. And you said: I could care less. This means: -You care about it -There is no sign of the level that you care about it, positively or negatively.
  17. I can't think of anything to say to this post that wouldn't end in me outright making you feel more sorry for yourself or the like, so I won't. The one thing I will talk about though is that you need to find things that are more brag-worthy. (This constitutes as things a person would be impressed by/care about.) The only thing in that list that was impressive to me was the computer, but I cannot even remotely guess your age by your posts, so I could assume that was merely 1-3 years ago, which would not be saying much since nowadays "building a computer" consists of ~10-20 screws and plugging in color-coded, impossible to plug in the wrong direction, auto configuring wires.
  18. i dont remember how much space you're allowed, but that probably includes pictures you've uploaded elsewhere on the site. Other than removing those, just upload it to some hosting website and link to it instead.
  19. I kind of wish you would stop making annoying threads, bc like pot said most of them in tech are fine. But other than that, I don't give a damn either way otherwise. But this post... im sorry, but this post disgusted me. For #1, That was a completely asinine statement. You miss the point of calling someone an idiot, you are insulting their intelligence by saying they barely have brain activity. For the other red... wow dude. just wow. Do you honestly think that people care or are you really just this digusting pile of pomposity? Don't ever say this to others, ever, because beyond not giving a fuck, you will just disgust people to no end with how apparently full of yourself you are.
  20. aww thats kind of you huwa.. acting like i wasn't one before then
  21. zip ties. zip ties. zip ties. My case had a few random holes for no apparent reason that i was able to thread the massive majority of my sata cables through and down to the HDDs. The things that arent hideable like that, like the hdd -> mobo sata etc., i zip tied and taped to the bottom of the case. You cant even see them because they are hidden beside the lip of the aluminum. Pretty much, when i gaze lovingly at the window of my case i only see 2 wires, 1 for ambient temp measuring, and the 2nd power to my gfx card (i was even able to hide most of the pci-e cable that came from the psu) but like pot said, its not really important if it doesnt reduce airflow, but im severely anal when it comes to this hobby o' mine. If it bothers you that much and you cant do much with the mobo tray, get a new psu with longer cables, or go modular.
  22. No Offence but..

    obviously not you. it seems like everyone that makes fail threads cannot pick up on sarcasm/is too fucking stupid to realize when something is ACTUALLY funny.
  23. No Offence but..

    this IS a fail thread. you obviously couldnt tell that his thread was social commentary on how shitty the OTF is becoming.
