N-Key refers to the number of keys that can be pressed at one time and still register. "n" refers to the number of keys..I guess. Not exactly sure, to be honest, but that's the gist of it anyway. ROll-over refers to being able to push them all at once. There's some test you can try while holding shoft or something that kinda shows this....I'd have to as MT ALex what it was, I forget.

So it's a measurement of how many keys can be pressed before the keyboard begins ghosting?
I would imagine PS/2 keyboards would inherently be better for this than USB.

Exactly, PS/2.

That's what she said...

You could always hop in our TS server one night and ask her...she's usually near-by.:D


I know she will confirm.

Not at all. fans barely even spin up, since I run those 6950's at bone stock, and more often than not, run stock CPU, too.

Beleive it or not, teh 7950s, and just two of them, put out more heat, while the 3x6950 gives twice the framerate in BF3.


Of course, my 6950's exhaust out the back, while the 7950's exhaust into the case, which increases CPU load temps, too.

OMG, with both of these 7970s flashed to GHz editions and the OC I have on my CPU, even a light video load(DirectX Video Acceleration) warms my legs(computer is under my desk, next to my leg), and gaming for about an hour heats up the whole room. Having a vacuum tube amplifier about two feet above my computer doesn't help, either. That amp alone can heat the room up in about two hours.
Good thing I live in FL and am used to ~80F ambient.:banghead:

Hey guys what are the sites you uses to post pictures other than Photobucket? I would like to use Picasa since I can go watch at my pictures only using my LG blu-ray dvd internet connection.

These are Dual CL 470 speakers made in germany during 2 years..1978-1979. 70W continuous power and 100W music.

The amp is a Queon QT 440 but can't find any more infos on it since it's rebranded. Quebec-Ontario Imports (QUEON) able to make these speakers distort like hell. So around over 300W amp.

VHS Sears DM HI-FI head was worthing 699$ at that time.

LG blu-ray and Sceptre 32" 1080P LED screen.

Going from 120 gigs of space to over 2TBs in under a month feels amazing.

:C Rig picture aren't working for some reason.

That's real nice mobo you got there. :D

Thanks :)
I got the mobo, CPU, and RAM for $230 shipped. I just got a Lynnfield setup a month ago, but this was too good to pass up. I'm going to push it more tomorrow once I decide that it's stable as-is (I was having issues earlier, but I think entirely due to a bad HDD).

It will be a lot nicer once I don't have to use the HD3000 :p
