Glad to her that you have things going again!

The worst of the weather we've received here is a bit of rain--I'm surprised that you have more further inland TBH.

Nopper buddy like I said last night it had nothing to do with the storm.. All we got was a little wind. My power issues came from a bad circuit.. :banghead:

Swiftech mcp 355 pump is still good, or I could get better for the same price(under 100$ can)
I'm looking for a low profile pump (haf 912 not so much room for a big pump like the mcp 655)
I'm using 2x 240mm swiftech rad and a Apogee HD waterblock

Thansk for your advice

That pump should be fine for your loop.
Need pics though when your done

Good news! My i7-920 should be back from RMA tomorrow, and I have someone coming to look at my AMD X2 tonight. Between the i7 and whatever else I can get from the sale of the dual-cores, that should be an impressive boost! :toast:

Norton · Oct 29, 2012

Bad news- power just went out over here and the winds are kicking around pretty hard now. :cry:

The only thing that drowning out the wind is the wifey..... complaining about no power and the wind. :rolleyes:

Not sure when the power will be coming back but most of my crunchers will be down until we get it back. Weather is set to improve tomorrow at some point so hopefully this only lasts a day or two.

Will use my mobile connection when I can and will let you know when everythings back up...

Take care Bill and bee safe!

Stay safe Norton! Sorry to hear that your wife is giving you grief

I've sold the AMD X2, so I'm on the lookout for new crunching power to add--I'll keep you guys posted! :toast:

Starting to feel the effects of Sandy here in London as the northwest edge of the storm is hitting us. Nothing to what the coast is currently experiencing though.

You'll start feeling the affects of wifey too if we don't get power soon.... can't believe she's drowning out a hurricane :twitch:

Well I got my supply of beer and I'm staying inside now! :toast:

AlienIsGOD · Oct 29, 2012

im soo stocked to be getting a Evga z77 FTW @ $124

Still debating on a 7850 or a 7870 to compliment the 3570K im planning to get for the mobo. The plan is to crossfire in April or May. Im sure either card(s) will be a powerhouse GPU crunching combo.

ChaoticAtmosphere · Oct 29, 2012

For 50 dollars more get this http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=43_557_558&item_id=045020

AlienIsGOD · Oct 29, 2012

im only getting 1 card to start with :eek:

ChaoticAtmosphere · Oct 29, 2012

the 7870 is $259 if you plan to crossfire you're better of with the 7970

AlienIsGOD · Oct 29, 2012

im prolly looking at 7850s as they are a shade over $200 atm and they fit into my budget better. I have to put money away usually for stuff over $150 (thats about my monthly limit) so looking at my options, the 7850s sound like a good choice

And that's why I call CA my buddy :toast:

Winds starting top pick up here and they are saying we will have snow by morning. They have Blizzard warnings in some areas around here but not us. This is going to be one interesting night. Hell they have closed everything down. The liquor stores closed down at 2 this afternoon but battery plus is still open.

Norton you stay safe my friend!!!!! That frigging storm is a big one for sure. Heard last night it was about 1000 miles in diameter! :eek:

Got a wild video of the trees blowing around in the full moon during a break in the clouds last night. Will send it out when I get my power back..... i.e. hopefully soon

It will be interesting. Please, give a link after uploading the video to YouTube.
I hope that you and your family are safe, as well as others who are affected by the hurricane.

Wow---you got a great board at a phenomenal price! :eek:

[Ion] · Oct 30, 2012

Well, I just got my replacement CPU from Intel. They shipped me a BNIP i7-920. I've installed it and I'm seeing more life than before. I'm creating a flash drive of Windows 7 now. Assuming the installation works, I'll install the Antec H2O-620 and overclock after class. Pics incoming!

Chicken Patty · Oct 30, 2012

Damn man. What's the only thing left to replace?
