    Well. That's probably true too.

    Dave is a very good son and takes care of his mother and all of her health issues. He was brought up with a very good work ethic and a strong family commitment and sometimes taking care of her interferes with his trying to make a living. But that is what good sons do.

    Nah, I've had two of those..
    Yea, Dear Old is my Mother.. She'll be 78 in July, bad hips and knees but the mind,lungs and heart are good.
    Would rather see her in her home than in "a" home.
    We all do what we have to in this life and this was my decision.
    I do have my days but in the end it was a good decision.
    Yea, Sig is right, at times it does get interesting making some $$ but I get by.
    Speaking of which, off to work..

    My grandma is 98, she's been living with my parents for a few years now, so I know what you're dealing with some days. I moved home temporarily to help my Mum dealing with all the work and we really love granny of course, but sometimes it just gets too much, especially for one person alone.

    I'm off to work now, too - cya guys later

    It's the big one. A Yeon Yang B0420. But I got it like that from someone at the German HWluxx forums. Looks a bit used but I don't care, was cheaper than a new one + I really wanted the top cuts for exhaust fans or watercooling later.

    They look very similar, but these links you posted are NOT Yeon Yang. Dunno about that brand
    But I love the cube design, too - so handy

    I'll sell it for 3 grand any day and rebuild... no I wouldn't
    But I would make a good deal - costs are on page 1
    Even though they are not realistic for people who don't buy hardware for five-figure amounts of € every month.

    Oh and yeah, it IS worth its money. I have been away for a week now and shut everything down but the Dual Harper - and does my output look weak? I don't think so - even with my main quad and laptop down I am still at a 6k RAC

    Yes, I can even pass memtest. Problem is CPU VTT like I said, not even Vcore. CPU's won't do more than FSB 430 prime (hence I don't run them higher). FSB 400 CPUs probably have a higher default VTT, mine run at 1,07V. Do you have a readout for VTT?
