Re: Death in Gaza

Yeah, I saw it a while back. Shame he never got to film the Israeli kid, that would have made for some pretty hard contrasts...

Splitting for a pair of waterblocks AND splitting for a pair of radiators needs a pretty powerful pump to get water through both radiators after the pressure loss, for no actual real world gains. Why stop there you may as well have two pumps and two loops?

Sewing machine oil, Transmission fluid, etc.

Oh, also, i know you can have both processors on one radiator, but like... ugh i really dont like the idea of passing hot water over one of them =P. The temperature difference of water before and after a waterblock is usually very minimal, sometimes only by a degree or two, since the water is only ...

Thanks for the reply I know they used to make DCs with liquid cooling, but I don't think either of theirs are equipped. Those were heatpipes. They move the heat from the chips to a metal fan housing where the plastic one now resides, and acts as a sort of radiator. I say sort of because it didn't d...

It's starting to sound more like a failing power supply to me. Sounds like whenever it tries to spin up the drive, it's not getting the juice and cuts out completely. I think you already mentioned resetting the pins, etc, so take a look at the power supply board and look for any bulging capacitors. ...

Re: How to build a flashlight PC.

This guide will explain how you can convert your plain ole' PC, into a flashlight.

If you see no visual defects, it's time to t...
