Any thoughts on CPU cooling. I don't know the effective OC potential of the CPU other than there are architecture improvements over sandy bridge that allows for more room to experiment. Is it worth doing for a little extra muscle. Quiet is good though. I chose a HD7950 rather than a HD7970 on my last GFX buy because it had the smallest decibel number available. http://www.quietpc.com/lga1156-coolers There are several fanless offerings on that list, probably not the OC choice though.

The 32 gb ram is for large file handling in Photosop and Painter. One of the SSDs will be used for scratch disk the other for the system. With the ever increasing size of raw formats in digital cameras there are enthusiasts using 64 gb and 128 gb server based builds. My practical limit is 32. First question that comes to mind is whether the PS will be sufficient for upgrades. Will it SLI two new cards for instance. Without measuring equipment it's kinda hard to know exactly how much you need, and maybe it's impossible to plan completely for upgrades anyway.

He's not unlike a whole host of republican pundits and talk show hosts. They are just mad because he does it better.

It's all pretty well known isn't it. Hitler had some entirely unrealistic expectations concerning diplomacy with the UK, no doubt born by his experienece of being able to bully everyone during appeasement, and also out of a genuine desire to make sure that Britain's vast empire didn't disolve to then be snatched up by other contenders. A lasting arrangement following victory at Dunkirk was very much in his interest. There were british 'Nazis', with prominent sympathisers, but they never achieved any popular support, and of course by the outbreak of war it was too late for any such movement to gain hold. Assassinating Hilter would only have made sense during his meteoric diplomatic successes before Poland and up to perhaps following the defeat of France. After these events he was deemed to be a bonus due to his constant meddling with military operations and nonsensical directives. This was an ever escalating tend as his mental health deteriorated. With someone competent like Manstein, Guderian or Model in charge Barbarossa could have gone the other way. It's certainly not impossible.

Don't die on us. Contemplating buying a PCI express 3.0 SSD, which is completely mad since it costs four times the SATA one for the same capacity. I mustn't succumb to the cool factor.

Those Mac mice are so ass backwards. Anyway any gamer worth his salt has a macro enabled mouse. Granted mine is a little ludicrous with 15 buttons. You need that for clunky console ports, of which there are many. I have Alt, Space, Ctrl, shift and WASD at my disposal without moving my palm. That's about all the keyboard I want to use.

An atheist believes in something, namely that God doesn't exist. The implications are just as profound and life altering as believing that he does.

I smoke and rarely ever exercise although I get around on a bicycle so that helps a little. The last time i was really sick (from an under cooked chicken) was two years ago, something like that. Not counting headaches which i get when i don't use my glasses. What I hear is about 30 mins to an hour a day of exercise, doesn't matter how hard it is just keep the heart rate up without interruption, is where you should be. Any more than that makes no difference, and of course too much is bad for you. That said I can't remember the last time I did 30 mins of uninterrupted exercise.

I get paid sick days not paid leave, so I'm sick a lot, same as everybody else on my contract. They stopped using that contract for new hires though. I wonder why.

Where the in the nine hells is the straigth quote --> " in Word. I can only find the squiggly one. And apparently it doesn't come with sans sarif. Apparently this matters for submissions. Did they run out of things to annoy students with.

So, you are proven right because other people are also wrong, is that the jist of your argument. Do you see the analogy between God's chosen people and your online persona, or did that just get too deep. hmm..

Right. Racism is specific, not to how much you love your own race, but to how you hate that of others.

He has kinda stared himself blind to a Russian perspective on everything. It's kinda sad really. Reminds me of Louis Farrakhan and to a lesser degree of white supremacy, but that doesn't necessarily make it racist. It's just the one half of thinking your race superior and everyone else inferior and worthy of nothing but contempt.

Breweries got a massive quality boost from the organic do it yourself trend over the last decade. The big name breweries realised that they had to start competing on quality or lose the domestic market. Danish beer used to be **** in other words. Not so anymore.

I don't actually understand how a house to most people is a loan you pay off over 30 years. I mean, I do, It's just that you can build one in less than a week, and materials aren't THAT much. Where does all this extra astronomical cost come from.

We're at a point where single digits have been determining whether we call it a recovery or a depression and where what we are calling it influences the outcome. People are unlikely to trust even a 'real' recovery though. Consumer confidence will take a long time to bounce back.

If they could ad skeletal functions and animations for things like hair and dresses/coats it could be revamped. Clothing can't currently move.
