    Bought used. Was told it was a standard i5-6600. Also claimed I only had a 128GB SSD.

    $800. He built it about 4 months ago. He's moving and needed the cash so I took him up on the offer.

    This is much better than what I was going to build for the same price so, win for me.

    Thats an amazing deal, just the CPU, GPU and SSD alone would be more than that retail.

    Yeah. Even without the 6600K and the Asus Sabertooth Z170 S MB, I still would have been happy.

    Well, I'm incredibly confused.

    I have a system, some random Compaq pre-built, that I'm looking to turn into a sort of Vista-era gaming PC. I've been looking around, and have found it has a Pegatron (ASUS) M2N68-LA motherboard. Problem is, whenever I try to pull information up on it, I get results for 3 motherboards that are all COMPLETELY DIFFERENT than the one in that Compaq.

    One is a full ATX affair from ASUS. One has 2 DIMM slots, but apparently supports DDR3, AM3 CPUs, but somehow uses the Nvidia GeForce 6150se chipset. The third has the same chipset, but has 4 DIMM slots, a different expansion slot configuration, but only supports Athlon 64 (up to X2). The board that's in it has 2 DIMM slots, an Athlon 1640-LE, a different I/O configuration, and a different chipset (GeForce 6100, I believe).

    I don't have a clue, man. I'll see if it'll accept an Athlon 64 X2 5600+ or something.

    That's what I used to split them.

    The only way to keep it under 400 Mbs was to part it into 12, but I did 13 just in case.

    So a major interstate just collapsed near where I work. Considering I take that route weekly I'm boned, not even to mention what that's going to do to traffic on the surrounding interstates.

    I don't understand how a piece of an intertate just collapses all of a sudden.

    A massive fire burning under the bridge might be part of the reason why.

    I've had this monitor stand set up for a few days now and for the price it's really good, no excessive wobble, feels sturdy, none of the joints seem to droop.

    A photo i've just found from 2005, I was aged 6 here, I'm pretty sure this was our final assembly for year one. although you can't see me very clearly because of my mum's great photography skills. also note the minidv handycam.

    To be honest I think the McLaren looks pretty sexy in feathers too, if not in the slightest bit legit.

    It did surprise me that google did an April fools advertising all of the worst possible things about a product that they near enough already make. Going so far as to mock how they don't answer questions well and misinterpret things.

    A more musical one that I found entertaining was this:

    Mostly because they have actually released it as a plugin which is pretty neat IMO. I also love how they have a dial for "ability".
    (For the uninitiated ableton makes DAW software (software used to make music))
