Re: Today I have... I went 140mph on the highway when some ******* decided he was going to try to race my STi in his damn mazda 6... Needless to say, he couldn't keep up.. haha

Re: The What You've just Bought thread! the unbearable heat and the spiders = why I would never go to Australia. Haha. Best of luck

Well seeing as my 2011 STi only takes 6.5in speakers, my vote really doesn't count but my Pioneer TS-D1720C(s) sound damn good! :D

Im going to just throw this out there but if you already made a gaming pc, why do you want a laptop that also plays games. The only reason got a power lappy is because I go to my girlfriends house and her and I play together... and we play games. Haha. Anyway, my point is that powerful laptops...

One more thing, if your doing a video card, it might be a good idea to double check that your computer has a rear case fan installed. For some reason Lenovo Desktops over the recent years do not always come with an added exhaust fan. it will just help keep your computer cool while you game on...

I'm apparently having issues with paying attention today. :p you don't even want to see what i just did in another thread! :P

i was wondering why someone wanted to put a Sandybridge i5-2500K in a laptop but my brain was just having a moment of stupidity! :P **digs a hole and sticks head it it** :o I'm just always thinking of Lenovo and the IMB Thinkpads! haha Though the same still applies, just make sure you get...

I hear ya, i just know that my cooler was loud at heck because mine was maxing itself out. @JamesBond - If its not the CPU fan, it looks like a fan that does not have a RPM monitor wire(The yellow wire on most 3 pin fan connector) Another thing i noticed about my asus motherboard is that...

Indeed and i personally would not do it however, the OS you order from the company's usually has the drivers/software like Microsoft office(If it came with it)/ect installed, which is sometimes easier for some people. :)

That showed me exactly what we need (Most likely :p ) Your fan connected to your CPU 'header' is spinning at 3800 RPM, depending on what type of fan that is, that can be VERY loud! Your temps are PERFECT, very cold running machine, well done! :D Find out which fan is connected to that...

Well i also only use OEM, even when i(Next to never) buy a factory made computer, ill wipe the format of windows and install a "Fresh copy". I do that because most computer companies today will just load the computer full of bloat ware and other crap. its best to just start fresh If someone has...

Well the biggest problem when you do a CPU upgrade on a Laptop is heat. Lenovo and almost all laptop manufactures, design the heatsink so it can dissipate a set amount of heat. Your laptop will be made to cool a 65W Dual core, which is already a hard job for a laptop but adding Another Two...

You can also use a program called HWmoniter - Link that will tell you all your motherboard(and gpu/hdd/ect) temps, the realtime rpm of your fans, and their min/max/current value of each. I would never recommend slowing your fans RPM without first finding out why its spinning so fast. The...

You should shut hibernation mode off all together so you dont get the useless files piling up! :P

they are the same exact batteries, they are just wired to fit more cells. The Difference would be in the Quality off the cells (who actually makes the cells for the battery) Panasonic, sayo, ect. The battery ratings (Power=enegry/Time) which is reffered to as Ma-h (Mill amp hours) also, volt...
