Quote from dadge :correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't recording video (for more than 10 minutes) on a camera like yours could actually burn out the sensor?

Just wondering, what is the reason why it might happen, and to which camera types it applies?
A friend of mine dabbles in a bit of photography and he was telling me that in the manual for his camera, it states that prolonged video recording (10+ minutes) could burn/damage the sensor. Could be just his model of camera.
Quote from S3ANPukekoh3 :I got one recently (mine is red) and its the best phone I've had in ages. Plus it has snake on it.

Had a bad day today, ^this just made it a bit worse.

I want a desert camo one, but they don't make it that color. But yeah, a great phone, has exactly those features I need and use, nothing more, nothing less.




I bought this power inverter for various festivals and outdoor trips in a van. Main use of this is to plug a guitar in a car. This makes the amp buzz a bit, and a clean tone sounds like a driven one at louder volumes, but still great fun.
they are awesome,i love them !
Quote from Omar1 :i dont drive one, not old enough. But they're my favorite by far and hopefully i will own many of them throughout the years.

they are boring as hell
I like mine and how it drives too but doesnt change the fact that its a boring car. Slow and FWD. Doesn't take more to explain.
Tommi wanna get ur ass kicked?

Vag is ftw. Amen
okay

Only for people who can't afford a real car.
Needed to buy a second pair of cans today (was doing a live recording with a guitarist) and nowhere in York sells DT100s so I ended up with a pair of these Sennheiser HD-215s



They don't look particularly nice but I'm using them for monitoring in the studio so who cares (as if DT100s look nice!). They do a decent job for the price - nothing bled on to the tracks despite monitoring quite loud, sound was balanced enough not to cause problems, only thing I don't like is the covering on the ear pads which I can tell is going to wear out quickly. Decent headphones for the money though.

I must say some of them look really nice though

Quote from dadge :Good job. I have Logitech 2.1 speakers, and to be honest, they are much better than any 2.0 set I've bought at the same price (£16).
Not the best sounding speakers in the world, but compared to 2.0 they're miles better. Even better than most ipod/,mp3 docking stations too.

Proper 2.0's are still better because their <300 Hz isn't mono :P


AMD 8150 3.6hz orichi core
Asus crosshair V motherboad

Quote from E.Reiljans :Proper 2.0's are still better because their <300 Hz isn't mono :P

Yes and no.. A £300 2.0 setup will always sound better than a £16 simply because of the quality of the components used.
Combining mids and bass into one speaker will never be better than separate modules for each band. Bass should be as low to the ground as possible. Mids and top, ear level. You can't do that with 2.0. When possible try to keep your bands/frequencies separate. Bass (good bass) can be felt (omnidirectional) and doesn't need to be at ear level. Mids and tops however, they work best if kept at ear level. This is because these frequencies don't travel through surfaces as well as the bass frequencies would. If your bass is coming from the same place as your mids and top, you lose quality due to the mids and bass frequency fluctuation from a single diaphram.
A 2.1 setup gives more volume at the same level too. Did you also know that if you put two subs next to each other, you triple the bass output?

But for £16 for a the 2.1 units i'm using, are still much better than 2.0 in a similar price range. It's pretty pointless us arguing like a couple of audiophiles when the system in question is only £16 lol.

Quote from Derv94 :...

Nice combo.
I had this as sample kit from AMD, but the version with the liquid system. Then i replace the motherboard with Gigabyte 990FXA-UD7.

FYI, this CPU can work at 4.2-4.5GHz with ~1.35v, means less than what Turbo Core crap gives.
With less than 1.3v can achive 4.0GHz very easy.

Anyway, disable the Turbo Core. You will have better temps
(stock cooler isnt enough for that hot CPU)
