    Freaking 12 year old GMOD admins.. Kept admin killing everyone at once on a prop hunt server.. And when someone said something about it he kicked them. This one person kept coming back when he got kicked and then the 12 year old admin perma banned him with a message saying "get rekt noob"

    i just don't have enough ports to use them (as they are both the exact same model, HP L1706 1280x1024, VGA only)

    I really want a secondary monitor, for multitasking stuff. For example, having VS + browser for reference without having to alt+tab every three lines of code. Or just for watching youtube videos while I do shit :p

    Yeah, it's awesome. I currently have a pair of Acer 1080p IPS 23 inch panels. It's really nice. (Especially with them being the same model instead of different models and sizes like I had before.) I've tried using my old monitor in addition to my current two but it doesn't really fit on my desk. My desk is basically three pieces. Two rectangular pieces and a small triangular cornerpiece. I want another one of these desks (Got this one for 25 bucks at a tag sale years ago.) to add on to this one and make one superdesk.

    Current:

    I wouldn't mind a different one. As long as it's not a CRT I'm fine, I would probably have it off most of the time anyway.

    Yeah, but same model monitors is a lot nicer.

    As for the bigger desk, I found the same one I have on Craigslist. It's $100 though, and I'm not sure if they'd fit together.

    2x 1080p 23 inch IPS monitors.

    Also the one I game on is running 75Hz.

    Is there any way to tell how many watts my laptop is pulling at idle and at full load? (I don't have a kill-a-watt.)

    Im kinda tempted to see if i can overclock my asus pb238q. I tried it on the samsung and while it worked it decreased the resolution. after reading the manual i found that my samsung screen is 60hz at high resolutions and 75hz at lower ones. So the panel supports it, just the electronics behind it dont :/

    I've listened to NCS playlists when I study. Nadeox's new crashtest video has one of their songs in it. Sounds weird now. :p

    Both are cluttered and just hideous IMO, but the C70 still looks way better of the two. It's probably the only case ever I would get in any colour other than black.

    Re: General discussion chat

    I recently purchased a new 850w power supply from Newegg to replace my under powered 500w PSU in my Acer Predator, and just got it today. Turns out that the motherboard (which is less than a year old) uses a 12 pin power connector on the motherboard, rather than the standard 20/24 pin connectors you would find on a typical motherboard. The only adapter I've been able to find is here; Anyone have other suggestions? I included some pictures for reference. Thanks!

    judging by the fact that he said his pc is an acer predator, probably some generic foxconn one or something

    lel, quite a few reviews for the acer predator all complain about un-upgradeability due to using a 12 pin instead of 24 pin adapter
