Built a nice system at work the other day;

Intel 980X

Intel 60gb SSD

8gb DDR3 2000MHZ Ram

Takes 50 seconds to post, and then 10 seconds to loads Windows 7.

50 seconds to post? turn all the shit off that u dont need to use ;P

unfortunately, no TRIM functionality whenn SSD's are in RAID 0...but even 1x SSD kicks the butt of a couple SATA's in RAID 0

pretty sure some SSD's have internal Raid 0 stripes with hardware TRIM - get two of those in series and u wont need to worry too much out wear levelling

in addition to that, slashdot did a series of benchmarks at some stage and they estimated that even the worst SSD for levelling won't have issues until its at least 5 year old (conservative) if not 10 (optimistic) - most peoples computers dont even last that long

if i can find it, ill post it up. also had some neat benchmarks comparing the IBM x25 series vs the OCZ and G.Skill brands - and there wasnt as big a difference as the price tag makes out...

^^^ I assume you mean 5 seconds to post Abe?!

Nope, 50 Seconds. GPU Post, Mobo Post, and that was with a Bios that had the unwanted features disabled, higher end motherboard, so heaps of features you can't disable too.

When you say higher end, are you talking Intel ?

IT will come with GA-PCV2 mother board ( these board happly with win xp when 512-1gb ram is installed) ....and a spare power supply aswell

not seperating... sorry guys...

lots of time and effort went into it, and made a great lil surfing machine for in the lounge using a wireless keyboard and mouse... and a great way to keep the wife happy " when she says , i dont want a computer in the longe".....lol

That’s really cool! Love it! I haven’t seen anything like it before.

hi all.just wondering what you all use as a media player on ur PC?

i use VLC, love the layout and most things about it. the issue i have is it freezes over the lan, and also on my desktop... i have used the googleizer and tried the things suggested there, increasing the buffer helped a lot, but i still get the freezes :P

in the past i was a big fan of media player classic, but i find the playlist a bit clunky so i have been persisting with VLC.

does anyone out there use anything else that is worth a shot?

...::edit::...

my os is win 7 ultimate

hi all... looks like this was sorted by either the new release of VLC or fixed thanks to patch tuesday last week... has held up fine since both of those things that were done on the same day.

i would have liked to know what it was tho :ermm:

well now on the internode SOHO plans, when u get shaped ur d/l goes down to 512/kb/s and the upload is not shaped :P:):banana:

and of course like any self respecting ISP upload does not count.

thinking of hosting a couple games now n then, and also having an FTP server to share all my media to my mates.

you can host Rfactor and you dont even have to purchase the game :P only helps people with the game :banana: :banana:

i actually signed up for a Real Time Racer beta and there is a comp to skin a car and win a game seat :)

although i suck @ skinning im giving it a shot

You shouldn’t have any speed change (unless you are downgrading your plan’s speed of course). The upgrade usually happens at midnight as that is when account plan changes are processed. Have you power cycled your modem/ other network equipment to ensure any changes are recognised?

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
