    Hiya! Been awhile, need some advice

    When you reinstall Windows it will probably fail online activation. But you call the number on the screen. You read the numbers to a machine and they give you an activation code. I had to do it about a week ago when I got a new piece of hardware and Windows said it wasn't the same computer.

     

    Edit: For hard drives I would get 2. An SSD and a standard HDD. Or you could do the hybrids, I guess they work the same. Use the SSD for your Windows install and the HDD for your games. SATA 2 will probably hold back a SSD but the standard HDD will be fine. They do make SATA 6gb/s PCIe 1x cards to get yourself some SATA 6gb/s ports. Or you could get real fancy and buy a PCIe SSD, but those are pricey.

    Banned for making a mistake

    in Banned from any of our servers?

    Thanks for coming here and welcome to the forums.

     

    Taking shorts-cuts like that is not allowed, it is an exploit. Suiciding whether or not intentionally doing it is a DEFINITE NO.

     

    As you have come here and apologised, I will go ahead and uplift your ban.

     

    If it happens again, your ban will probably remain in place.

    I think unintentional suicides are called accidents...

    Damaged Corsair H100i CPU Cooler

    in Buy, Sell, Trade, Free, Deals

    Description:

     

    I've had this cooler since early 2013. It's a closed system water cooler for a CPU. The radiator uses two 120mm fans, which I'm including. It can use up to four if you want to set it up as push/pull. It can mount anywhere in a case where you have a spot for 2 side by side 120mm fans. I may still have all of the original mounting hardware and screws. I know I at least have the screws I'm currently using. I'm using the LGA 1155 mounting plate. I think I have the original box also.

    Damage:

     

    Here's the fun part. Some bonehead (me) was removing the cooler and stupidly pulled the female connectors off the block where the fans attach. I lined up the pins to the best of my ability in my frustration and got a connector on. I'm currently using one set of fans (each set of fans uses one connector) and one fan works fine, but the other isn't detected properly and runs at 100%. If you have the patience I'm fairly certain you could get the connectors fully functional again. There's no pins missing or anything, just the connectors came off. I'm not including any thermal paste.

     

     

     

    I'm asking for $60 shipped because I know you can get it fully operational again and it's only about a year old. The H100i is currently $99.99 new on Amazon and Newegg. MSRP is $119.99. I will also consider any offers.

     

    Here it is in action:

    The cooler is still mounted in my PC, it works fine besides the 100% fan. I will probably be taking it out tomorrow. If anyone is interested I can take more picture and pictures of the damage.

    You could get some window film. It would block out some of the sun and you could still see outside without needing blinds or curtains.

    no tax on foods, medical or owned property. This means that no one can take away what you bought and paid for regardless of your future hardships.

     

    amen brother

     

    I would agree with this whole heartedly.

     

     

    Ah yes, the good old "as long as i'm fine, i don't care what happens to the rest of the world"

     

    Yeah, just as the political forum, i'm distancing myself of this conversation.

     

    Could you please explain the relationship between what you said and what Preacher said? How is always having a shelter over your head without worrying about foreclosure or being able to afford food and medicine without it being heavily taxed the same as saying, "As long as I'm fine, I don't care what happens to the rest of the world"?

     

    The people in foreclosure or the ones that can't afford to eat dinner are the ones MORE likely to not care what happens to the rest of the world, and with good reason.

     

     

     

    You're mostly likely working about lower and worker class since worker class is literally almost gone comparing to old days in Socialism and yes, also in US. If you look every charts, richer got even more richer. Plain and simple.

     

    And even if people barely make even over month, some or most of them (pick one) don't care about for those who are in even bigger debts, because human logic goes : If that rich, filthy bastard or politics won't care about lower class, why I should? I have problems too, while rich people don't have any.

     

    Guess people will still follow and listen overly paid congressmen and politicans, but don't have single benefits from it, except those at sink.

     

     

     

    P.S.: I can't see any no tax logic in food, property and medical one. So, those who are already overly rich, won't have to pay normal or additional tax? And US citizen complain why their health care and tax system isn't stable? Oh man.

     

    If they're "overly rich" I doubt paying or not paying taxes on food, medicine, or their property will make much difference to their bank accounts. Those who ARE having trouble or working near minimum wage to support a family will benefit much more than the overly rich.

     

    If for some reason the overly rich lose everything and their house goes into foreclosure I'm not going to laugh in their face and say, "That's what you get!". I think they would deserve the same leniency of no food, medicine, or property tax as everyone else.

     

    While I think it's ridiculous the amount of money some people make, I'm not standing outside their mansions so I can point and laugh at them if they lose it all. The rich are rich, that's great. I want to look at the opposite side of the spectrum. While I don't think the government should be giving them handouts I think the government can be more lenient when it comes to taxing the things they should rightfully own.

    I've seen a number of ISPs jumping on the 1gb/s internet bandwagon. It's usually pretty cheap too, like $70-$100 a month.

     

    Edit: Crap, I forgot my obligatory JPG!
