Higher rotational speeds usually translate into lower latency, and higher data transfer rates. The downside is they use more energy, create more heat, and are sometimes louder. In practice you probably won't notice the difference.

I was under the impression that hmod development was stopped?

Lol, what gives? I ran a server for over 2 weeks and only one person logged on, and now you guys are saying we need a CF server :P

He's got better d/l and over twice the upload as my old internet, and I was able to play cod4 with great results.

It should be up now, I had some troubles with my router earlier so that may of been the problem. Edit... It looks like I'm having pretty severe router problems, I'm not sure how but I suspect Minecraft is the culprit. (didn't think that was possible, but I wasn't having to cycle the power on...

If anyone wants to help me test my Minecraft server (mainly seeing if it has enough power to host multiple people) the ip is 24.255.222.95

Not bad. Wish I had that case :P

Recent Minecraft shots.

Get a decent GPU in there and unleash the beast!

First off, what is the quality of the stream? Secondly, how fast is you're internet? For example, say you have a 100mb line and were streaming youtube....needles to say you could stream a whole lot of clips. But if you have a basic cable line (say 3mbs) you'd max it out...

I second the headphone + clip on mic strategy. Just note that the headphones yoyojoe posted are "open" which don't do much to anything for blocking sound. Not a big deal most of the time, but if you're in a noisy environment closed headphones will suit you better.

I'd say pretty much everything, no offense. However you're gpu probably has the biggest impact.

It's still a 470, just a different brand. As for the psu I think it should be good enough, anyone correct me on this?

Oh geez....some hp presario back when dvd's were new (was my first dvd player too). Let me get this straight...You broke you're keyboard? I've never actually heard of that (apart from physical abuse) Anywho, laptops are pretty tough and standard keyboard use shouldn't cause any harm to...

Just adding my $0.02.... In my personal experience desktops have been more reliable than laptops. In my first laptop the optical drive failed, and my hdd and battery got fried on my current one (still works though). On the desktop side I've had 1 burn up after 6 years (psu failed)...

Sweet, thanks for the info, I think what I'll do now is just wait till the 5870 comes down in price a bit and build a computer then (seeing as I don't actually need one now). Thanks again -Joe

1st thanks for all the replies. 2ndly I already know how to build a computer (and have built several already) so that's not a problem. The problem/weird thing is that if you build this computer now (parts from newegg) it comes to around $1300. Now I personally think (and apparently...

Link http://wichita.craigslist.org/sys/1366797713.html My question is if this computer is a good deal if you subtract one monitor and lower the price to $1500. thanks in advance -Joe

I would get a second TB and partition it like you said. As for brand that is up to you, I have both Samsung and WD and both have served me well. Because for some people even 2TB is not enough...

It could be you just got lucky and both cards went bad. How long did you have the first card before it stopped working? A few days, a week, several months?
