What's your plan for dealing with heat death and possible proton decay?

He never actually claimed that he himself was descended from Zeus, just that someone produced a family tree which claims to trace his ancestry back to Charlemagne, and from him back to Trojan war figures descended from Zeus.

My question, is how much is the better performance worth it? The HD4850 has been suprisingly able and strong for a several-years old card. Here's a comparison of the 650 and 4870, no 4850 option available http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/513?vs=681 Here's a big comparison of 64 cards that inc...

メカ美少年 sounds fine to me.

What's the benefit of using Z87 without a -K model processor?

Is it worth it for future proofing my system, or is is something where I'd be better off buying a lesser board and upgrading down the road? The latter. You can't future proof computers. With the motherboards we're talking about, aside from things like the components in the voltage regulation module...

The FX-8350 looked like it had pretty good benchmarks and a few people I know recommended it. The ram was again recommend, so I figured why not. The motherboard hasn't been ordered yet. What advantages would I gain by going with what you've recommended? The SSD was out of stock, so I'll look into a...

Why an FX-8350 over an FX-4300 or A10-5800k? Applications that use more than two cores are still relatively rare, let alone four. That RAM has stupid tall heat spreaders that don't do any good, and is more expensive than the tiny performance improvement you'll get from 1866 over 1600. Why a Sabertoo...

Can anyone tell me the thickness of the backplates used with the Hyper 212 Plus and Evo? I'm looking into the possibility of using one of them in a case without a cutout and I want to know if it would be too thick to fit between the board and the tray. The board standoff length is 8 millimeters.

Have you tried testing each memory module and slot individually?

The dub is pretty vague about it, but the official sub includes the horrible phrase "This time". :?: :?: :?: My transcription of Kaworu's lines in that scene: "Sā, yakusoku no toki da, Ikari Shinji-kun. Kondo koso kimi dake wa... shiawase ni shite miseru" Did you have the impres...

How are Asrock boards these days?

Test the DIMMs individually and in different slots to see if the error only happens with one in particular.

Study a language.

Sounds like the problems I had with my old Athlon Thunderbird machine as it was dying. Look at the capacitors on the motherboard, and the ones in the power supply if you can see them, and see if any are bulged or leaking.

Why are you getting a 1200 watt power supply, a Z68 motherboard, 16 gig of ram, a water cooler, and yet going with a processor below the 2500k?

You might consider having the differences be phenotypic rather than genotypic, that is, they're more or less like us genetically but they grow differently due to different environmental factors.

Like maybe they eat native organisms which contain chemicals that alter human embryonic development.

No Final Fantasy Tactics?

Yeah. For one thing, unless that's 64 bit XP, you'll be limited to using 3 and a bit out of that machine's 8 gigabytes of memory.

I've also remembered that I have an ATI d43136 graphics card hanging around. Should I put that in instead? If that's a Radeon 9200SE, which is the only thing I can find associated with that number, then you won't be able to use it because it's AGP and that computer's motherboard only takes PCI and ...

Yeah, I can swim.

I also learned how to tread water from a GI Joe PSA.

I haven't read Elantris recently enough to speak about that one in particular, but in his later books at least, he doesn't act like sex doesn't exist. He is a prude, as he says himself, and sexual content makes him uncomfortable, but he will put it in if he feels the story needs it. The brothels, St...
