that is the most blatant lie i have seen  this year. after hooking up internet i haven't felt the need to turn on the tv. it's as if it was in the garbage ever since.

Puget recommends mineral oil from a pet clinic (it's used as horse laxative) for pc submersion. Their reasoning is on their website: medical grade oil is purest.

I feel cheated every time I buy a hard drive, even knowing that manufacturers will say that 1000k is a megabyte, while windows sees 1024k as mb.

does anyone have a real world benchmark, like antivirus difference in scan time versus an older drive?

to respond to one of you.

nehalem needs (aka is designed for) 3 channels of memory (im sure it can be run with a signle stick of ram or with two, but this is maximum pc). the specific mobo used in the article is strange: it has 3 channels but 4 ram slots/banks. so what gordon says in a nutshell is that you may need to ( for the sake of equal ram amounts per channel)  run it with for example 1gig 1gig and 512+512 in the final channel.

gordon was definitely apprehensive, and i tend to agree with agengineer-gordon did not want to slam Intel, but basically triple channel is probably terrible for performance.
