I have checked connection reliability at all points.
At the source I get 3 channels and excellent signal strength. After 150ft of 1980's coaxial and a modern splitter I get 1 channel, and barely within standards power level and SNR. Because it is barely within standards, Cox doesnt want to touch me. They also don't officially support DOCSIS 3.0
After the splitter and with a modern short coax I get 3 channels and great SNR. So clearly the problem happens after the 150ft of coax.
That was right at the basement, right after the splitter, and right at the very end. There are only these three points.
The guy across the street from me runs a home radio station so wireless anything is a no go for me. But he isnt the source of the problem either.
This is only 20 down/10 up nothing major.
130F is about the temperature of my attic.

If it's within a building you can also consider powerline networking (after putting the modem at at the source). But 150 ft of cat5e sounds like a plan to me.

Hello all , i just got the i5 2550k processor , with a p67 motherboard, I have a 480 watts power supply , would tht be enought to OC it? and or how much would i be able to oc it? or i wouuld just need a highe power supply?

You can OC that just fine assuming that: 1) You only use 1 graphics card (no Crossfire/SLI) 2) Your PSU is of decent quality. Low quality PSU may not be able to supply 480 watt continuously.

This is a very old building so I do not feel confident that would work. Kudos for the suggestion though.
Fine then. As long as 150 ft of Cat5e that gets hot in one part doesnt drop time or data then I am fine.

You guys think a Rosewill CAPSTONE 650 will handle 4 cards overclocked, but not overvolted, and mining?
The cards in question is a random assortment. Namely a 5770, a 5830, perhaps a 6870, and a 7870.
If not all three, which one would have to be dumped keeping the performance total the maximum.
The board they are running on is an ASRock Pro3 SE.

Since it's a long-term 24/7 load I presume, I'd consider the 750W for like $8 more just to get the usual round of small component value enhancements. But it should work.

I recently watched nada's TvP and TvZ tutorials on complexitygaming.net. He analysed he's TvP + TvZ build, does anyone know where i can find replays of said builds?

Hmmm $8 more, prob worth it. Ill need to keep my heat down this summer.

Home radio shouldn't be interfering with a wireless signal in the 2.5 Ghz range.

Home radio shouldn't be interfering with a wireless signal in the 2.5 Ghz range. Yeah seriously, if the out-of-band emissions were that bad, the FCC would be knocking on his door. That said, I didn't bring this up earlier because it sounds like a wireless signal would need to go up at least one floor and maybe some nontrivial distance, if we're talking 150 feet.

Yeah, and if there are a lot of metal pipes and air ducts in the walls that could potentially reduce the WIFI range as well. Though 802.11n does have a pretty significant range even for in doors.

By all rights the FCC should be knocking on his door.
The transmissions are so bad:
My TV will be scrambled. My PS2 controller will stop working. This is a wired device. I can hear his broadcast in every speaker, and the broadcast is on level with the speakers output. If I talk to people on vent, they will actually get his broadcast as well because the microphone will pick up the waves. My doorbell will either go off, or be completely muted, even if someone is pressing the button.
That is how powerful we are talking here.

If it's that bad, and you've already talked to the guy, you could always send a complaint to the FCC or ask your congressman's office do it for you.

Nah man, this is that dude's hobby. He has a sweet setup. I don't wanna shut down a guy's hobby after all the work he has put into it.
If I was really bothered I would just let him buy me some shielding.
I'm a good neighbor.

Is there any way to run XSplit from the command prompt like FMLE?

All the work? He clearly has no idea what the fuck he's doing, there's no reason in hell to be causing mass EM interference over a whole area, that's insanity. Besides being really annoying, that could actually be really dangerous if people aren't able to get emergency calls through on their cell phones. That's like saying you don't want to report an arsonist because burning things is his hobby...

Nvidia GTX560 Ti448. (I have an irrational fear of AMD cards so don't bother recommending them )
Buy now or is there any reason to think that price-drops are imminent in the GTX560 Ti448 or GTX570 range? Also can you use PCIe3.0 cards in PCIe2.0 slots?

yes, you can use PCIe3.0 in 2.0 slots, same shit different asshole. And if you're scared of AMD then just get 560ti 448 then, AMD already released their card in that price range (7850/7870), it already dropped from ~300 to like ~260. If you want even more price drops you can until nvidia release their newer generation at that price range. (whenever that is)
