Thermaltake Frio Instalation - Temps & Review

For the past year I have been running the stock AMD Phenom x6 cooler and that thing was horrible. It was load under load and wouldn't do a great job keeping my rig cool. I would peak around 50C under full load with that old thing. Recently one of my friends went water cooled and he sold me his frio. Now that I have it installed I was able to overclock and still achieve lower temps on full load than I did with the stock cooler.

Phantom of the Floppera - Floppy Music

Remember the old floppy squares we used to store our 1.44MB of data on? Has anyone had the wonderful experience of installing Windows 95 on a computer with floppies? Well I have and it's not much fun... Especially when one of the floppies goes bad...

Now I have found an even better use for these obsolete disks we probably all have laying around, make a musical instrument out of them! Check out these two YouTube videos I found!

So which one did you like more? Let me know in the comments!

Free Computer Technology Magazine

A Free Computer Technology Magazine is available to you! Have you ever thought that it would be nice to receive a magazine in the mail at no cost that has a large amount of tech stuff in it? I recently started to subscribe to CPU or Computer Power user magazine. It's a great free magazine. I first found out about it by picking up a free copy at the local CompUSA store. Then I thought about checking out their website and they had all of the issues online in digital format. I thought that that was amazing, that I realized that I could get a full free copy sent to my house! So now for the bast 5 months I have been receiving a free monthly issue! So just head over to their website and click register! Then you will be able to select whether you would like a digital copy or a print copy sent to you every month!

My New Computer Build!

So I just finished building my new computer last weekend and I have been giving it its test run over the past week. The experience of building a computer all on your own is just amazing. It's so cool to be able to piece everything together just the way you want to. So far it has been running very smooth and I hope that it stays that way for a very long time.

OK, OK... I know. Get to the SPECS! Well here they are
