Triple reformat? No. Go into the BIOS and set your CPU BCLK to 300 and set the multiplier to 50. Then run Prime95 for 24 hours.

Higher multi isn't always better ( 80mhz x 50 and 266.6mhz x 15 ), you'd have a 80x4 bus vs a 266.6x4 bus

things like telling a blonde her computer is dirty and she needs to clean it. So, she manages to cram the entire thing into the dishwasher to clean the computer. Then she yells at you and says you gave her bad advice....

Is today just a slow day, or has this actually had some sort of effect? Seems like the signal/noise ratio is better in the handful of threads today. Less answers in most of them, but seeing as 80+% of the answers people usually get are somewhere between stupid and chernobyl, that's probably an improvement.

Thanks R1CH, while I was lurking it seemed like every other post would consist of a 14 year old trying to describe things they're unable to comprehend.

SC2 Strat has the Purge. This is much more needed, and yet much gentler.

SC2 Strat forum can't start electrical fires and cost hundreds of dollars.

Seriously though, encasing your PC in Jello can deaden the sound, and increase performance by at least 1.21 jiggawatts.

Well, if all you're worried about is quiet, just throw it in the swimming pool. Never hear the bloody thing again. Concrete also works fairly well.

This thing really should be sticky otherwise it might get forgotten/won't be noticed by new posters, which only means additional trouble for everybody else.

Don't like the idea of permanent bans, but at least there is moderation. You need to define bad advice, you can't just say an advice is bad just because it is out of your budget or you do not like it. Some people like to be fancy and have an i7, and some just don't like Intel at all. Bad advice would be inaccurate and false information, which should result in a ban. On the other side, "unagreeable" advice should just be marked as bad advice/Warning.

I dont think there needs to be any sort of definition of bad advice.

If you dont know what the fuck you are posting, it is bad advice; and doesn't belong in the tech forums.

I guess we just hope, for the good of the forum, that they don't judge opinions they don't personally agree with as "bad advice".
