I'm having a few issues with Reddit and I hope someone here could help me. The site looks like this atm. I'm using Mozilla and it is up to date.

http://s18.postimage.org/74nxdgp4p/Unbenannt.png

Any suggestions?

I just got my laptop today, and I'm running SC2 with my GPU temperatures peaking 75 C and 55 C sitting idle. I'm guessing this is normal since this is a laptop, but I'd like to get other opinions. Is when it starts hitting above 90 C I should be worried?

It's pretty unusual to see a new laptop THAT high, but nothing to be worried about until it starts reaching the 95 range.

Why can't I access the web interface of my router? I have a Thomson TG712. The internet, online games, everything works fine except trying to access the web interface! It simply tells me it can't display the web page because the request timed out.

I want to open a port but for some reason it just doesn't work. I've tried just about everything, using a different browser, using a different computer, unplugging the power, etc. And yes, I've been using the correct IP-address, I even tried them all just to be sure.

Why doesn't it work?

Because SC2 and CSGO are both jokes on graphic requirements.

There's no real point to buy a 10k RPM HDD. Get 7200 RPM HDD or an SSD. No real reason to pay the premium for a 10k, IMO, when SSDs are dropping like a rock.

The velociraptor:
- VERY loud
- costs about 25cents/GB (1TB model = ~$250), more per GB for the smaller 500GB and 250GB ones
- is definitely noticeably faster than most HDD's, but not twice as fast or more (sometimes about twice as fast as some slower/smaller drives, but usually less than twice)

With the $250 you'd spend on the 1TB drive, you could get:
- a ~$110 Sata3 SSD (Crucial M4, Samsung 830, etc.) which are MUCH faster than the velociraptor
- a storage drive, like the Seagate Barracuda 3TB, which is not just huge but also one of the fastest HDD's around (not too far from the velociraptor) and only costs ~$150: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/seagate-internal-hard-drive-st3000dm001

And then if you're looking at the 500GB and 250GB models which are ~$160 and ~$110 respectively, a big drive like that barracuda will still be better because:
- it has nearly the same performance without being as loud
- you get far more space
- it will have better performance as more space gets used up (HDD's are fastest when they are the least full, because the reads/writes start from the inner tracks of the platters, where the data is the most dense)
The answers to most of your Tech Support questions are in the OP. That's why you're not getting a reply. It's been answered before. Read the OP.

There's different reasons, from brand loyalty, to PhysX (rare) to performance at a price point, folding, better for a specific application, or because of successful marketing.

How about narrowing down what you want to know?

I got asus sabertooth p67 motherboard, and it comes with a soft that shows all its components temps:
http://i46.tinypic.com/ji19hw.png

When i run a game or something, almost all the temps go crazy (USB3 port always going to 70-80+, PCI slot also going for 70+, SATA also for 70+)

Cooler i have - Hyper evo 212 plus
I also installed 2 fans to the case (from the outside part), i took them from old cpu's. The case itself is never hot, its actually quite cold..

Is this software showing me incorrect temperatures or are these temps OK ?
Also maybe installing those old cpu fans as case support fans is a bad idea ?

P.S. might be relevant - i also got i5 2500k CPU overclocked to 4.00Ghz

for most people id say: its either brand fanboyism or marketing. physx is nice2have.

also there are always pricepoints where nvidia beats ati. its just at this time where ati holds the lead in most segments.

i bought my 560ti 448 cores cause it has a great cooling solution and cost me less then the average 7850 at that time. if i wanted to pay 50€ it wouldve been a 7870. its usually that simple.

for specifig stuff too, bf3 runs better on nvidia cards, so for people who only play that game or whatever, it's better

i have a gtx590 because i had an insane deal on it, and sales happens, sometimes heres gtx560ti went as low as 140€

Sometimes my XP-laptop gets problems changing monitor resolutions. Then

a) when I alt-tab out of bw and back in, the bw- screen is black. It seems the PC can change resolution from 640*480 to desktop resolution, but can't go back to bw-resolution. Sometimes I can get back in by changing resolution in the control panel to 800*600 (the lowest it will go) and then alt tab to bw which then figures out how to get to 640*480. But at other times the system says i must restart before monitor resolutions can be changed.

b) I can't launch bw except in windows mode - when attempting full screen I get big error message like:

Starcraft was unale to switch video modes. To correct this problem please set Desktop area to 640 * 480 abd Color Palette to 256 colors and try running Starcraft again. (...)
The error encountered while trying to switch video modes was:

[not implemented]
vidnimo_PC.cpp line 160
SetDisplayMode.



A restart fixes this, but is annoying because I usually have a lot of work and browsertabs open.

Does anyone know how to fix this? Mot useful would be at least always being able to set resolutions in the control panels without reboot, because then I could play bw whenever I want without ever rebooting.
