    I am planning on getting a studio desk because my current one is too small to keep all my stuff on, so space won't be an issue. Studio desks have two layers, so I will be able to keep my speakers elevated and next to my monitor, while things like my keyboard, mouse, joystick and record player will remain on the main level of the desk. Space is not a big concern, I have seen the KRK Rokker 5's sitting on the desk with a 27 inch iMac inbetween them and there was enough room.

    I have listened to music through both the KRK 5's and the 8's, both sound great without an asinine amount of bass.

    Honestly I'll probably end up getting the Adam Audio A3Xs because of their smaller size, maybe the 5s. The 7s would be a dream and would do better on either side of my drumset.

    Computer related frustration of the week: Updated the motherboard bios because of promises of it being better and my AISuite bugging me every couple of days, now I get to redo my overclock. But not now, maybe at the weekend.

    Yea, some BIOS updates will indeed reset overclocks, thankfully you already know the voltages that you need.

    I thought I might try the offset voltage regulation, see if I can get better/lower. I couldn't get it below 1.32 in bios without it crashing before an hour of P95 was up with setting a manual voltage and I am very jealous of Protput's 1.28V vCore :/

    Just got to find out how the damn off-set thing works...the "guide" pdf thing on overclockers tells you what all the options do (kind of) but doesn't seem to tell me how to use them :< Oh, and any Z77 Sabertooth OC guides use a 3570K

    Hmm. What sort of world-changing overclocking options does Z77 sabertooth have over P67 sabertooth? As far as I know almost all BIOS options should look almost the same in Asus's bios.

    In other news, had to do a full clean removal of my 301.42(whql) drivers because it was causing GPU usage in WoW to fluctuate erratically between 50% and 100% resulting in unplayable framerates. First time I've run into issues with nVidia drivers (in my short experience). Back to trusty 296.10 drivers now, nice and stable

    Hmm.

    INDEED IT IS GOOD SIR. THANKS FOR POINTING OUT.

    I'M SURE THE MODS WILL ALLOW 24 HOURS OF CAPSLOCK MOTHERFUCKERY TO COMMENCE ON THE MORE "FORMAL" PARTS OF THESE FORUMS.

    I'm sure the moderators will excuse 24 hours of capslock motherfuckery to commence on the more "formal" parts of these forums.
    I am sure they totally will!

    Bahahaha.

    You didn't know that already? Websites have been doing things like that for years.

    A site I frequent doesn't because the admin SOMETIMES LIKES TO SHOUT!

    That setting also screws with smilie-only posts.

The gentleman at the other end of the phone had an issue with one of the products we sell, but as he was unable to explain the problem in detail I asked of him to take a photo and send an e-mail as this would be easier for me to process. I gave him the address and we hung up.

    Minutes later he phoned back and said that it didn't work. Something about HTP - he had also attempted different spellings. I gave him my colleges e-mail adress assuming that it was just an issue with my e-mail and I knew that his worked. We hung up yet again, but he phoned back just minutes later.

    It turned out that he had attempted to put my e-mail in the adress-field in his browser, attempting both www.myemail@company.se and http://myemail@company.se without luck.

    Oy vey.

    Did the forum layout change a little? If so it sucks (no offense)

  17. #997
    There was something about it on the main page, they were doing some sort of back-end maintenance about an hour ago, looks like it borked some of the layout.

    Borked? IMPROVED! They added an instant-unsbuscribe and instant-reply link! FINALLY.

    Would you consider the building part being more difficult than in a case with the standard lay-out?

    It has less room behind the motherboard tray that many of the newest cases, but probably more than most cheaper cases from a couple years ago. It also doesn't have any rubber grommets for tidiness and barely any room between the 5.25" bays and the motherboard tray.

    To say the FT02 is roomy is a bit misleading. The case is huge, but it is relatively cramped inside.
