A SiQ TL

I guess I should upgrade if cost effective, not sure what size the one I have now is, but I'll go bigger if the price is right.

A SiQ TL

just looked, its a besttec 250w

Majofo

It was probably that switch I told you to replace.


You probably have no choice in the matter anyways. Mfg's use the cheapest component to get the job done.




Shit.. a gerbil could do a better job.

See:

Majofo

Go to Fry's and buy the best one on sale... most bang for your buck. Probably ~$30 for 500-600W ATX PS. You probably only have one or two peripheral connections since it's OE.. so pretty much anything they have on the shelf should do.

Majofo

Don't forget to unplug it before working on the computer.. and give it some time so the caps can dissipate any stored charge. :wink:

I've got other plans for the gerbil

A SiQ TL

what's the diff between atx & ps/3?

A SiQ TL

Lower, L-5 S-1. Was apparently born with a sacralization, meaning part of my L-5 fused to my S-1, making my deadlift... screw up everything lol.

No sleepy. Just saw Savages with my friends tonight, was ok I thought. First 15 minutes had a devils threeway with Blake Lively

Majofo

Just go there, see what's on sale, check the daily flyer.. take one home.


ATX is the board standard. It's spec for voltage rail configuration. The PS has 1 main connection (20/24 pin ATX connector) to the motherboard at different voltages that power the processors, phys, and memory.

It has additional connectors like sata for hard drive and peripheral connectors, usually 4 or 6 pin connectors.

A SiQ TL

you specified atx. I went on frys website and they break them into 2 categories, ps/3 was the other

A SiQ TL

I understood that first sentence

Majofo

Blake lively!

I loved her in 'The Town'

I was hoping it was a good movie. Worth the price of admission? It's seriously in my queue.. or rental?


Shit.. sucks. Any solution other than surgery?

Majofo

You'll be fine.. dooo eeet!!!

Majofo

PS/2 is a connector for a mouse?.. not one you'd likely stick in your rectum though.

Not sure why they have a "PS/3" category. I did take a look at the PS. It's an ATX but has PCIe connections x3 (6 and 8 pin)..


Anyways.. if you have 2 or 3 that are good value.. check the specs. The one with the longest lifetime / MTBF (mean time between failure).. buy that one.

Majofo

Anything over 100k hours should do though.. means it'll run continuously at ~70% load for ~10 years.

Majofo

I used to be a component engineer for a big computer mfg.. if it wasn't apparent.

A SiQ TL

why do they put a power switch on them? Wouldn't I just leave it in the on position?

Gonna go to frys after work tomorrow and take a look.

She was pretty worthy.

Except... everything was covered by the guys (or 2 guys) during those good scenes... Definitely a guy movie. All about week, shooting, torture, etc. Decent acting, thriller shoot em up movie. So I enjoyed it actually. LONG ass movie though, 10:40 movie, finished at 1:10.

Definitely worth a matinee price

And it does. Pain Specialist said 80% heal after 8 months or so. Its been 5 months since my injury, 2 months since I got the pain radiating down my leg. They're scared of the possibility of Cauda Equina syndrome, but I doubt it'll happen. She practically told me to do nothing active (or fun) for 8 more months other than the PT she just scheduled, so we'll see.

Shit does suck when you're 20

But hey, going to Guatemala for a week on Sunday to get away from everything

Def gotta watch out for crabs, going to charleston Got the oil changed yesterday, everything else is mechanically sound. With the exception, there is a small tear in the intake boot. I'll either have to get an CAI or replace the boot when I get back in town next week.

Enjoy! My family just got back from a 2700-mile trip to WI and Chicago, driving in their 100* heat no less. My '04 (with 125k) ran like a champ! Take care of your TL and she'll take care of you!

TheLowLife

Sick, where are the pics?

Pat - I'm looking forward to this trip more for the drive than the actually mini vacation. I've only ever driven my car around town, with the exception of the day I bought it and drove from Charlotte to home. Approx 1hr or so.
