[Share]Have you heard "Beginner's luck" after assembling a new PC?

Source：http://www.mobile01.com/topicdetail.php?f=174&t=4197107&p=1#53642903
Well, long, long time ago….
The man’s dream is gaming with his girlfriend, and through the amazing gaming skill to take a place in the girl’s heart.
However, my girlfriend is using a very old notebook which the brand is Sony.
I was too poor to buy her a new PC, so I can’t make the gaming dream come true…
After a year that I tighten my belt, I save the money for this high end PC.
(even much better than my PC…..)
My is AMD 970 MB, as I remembered the cost was about USD1, 000.00 and the new rig is about double of that!!
Basically, I buy all the components separately, let’s see:
CPU – Intel i7-4790
MB– MSI Z97 GAMING 5
VGA – MSI GTX970 gaming 4G
Memory – Geil DDR3 Dual channel 2133MHz 8GB
Power – 500W SilverStone Strider Essential Series
Case – SilverStone Fortress Series FT04
HDD – WD…. It is my old one… Just settle for it. Cause I really don’t have much to buy a new one…
As for the color, my girl likes white, after search for a while I only can see sliver one. (most of the case are black)
(picture from official website)
Silver, ATX, although it is for ATX, but when I put my MB inside, looks like an ITX….
The case comes with 2 fans in front, and you can adjust the fan speed. Basically I tuned it to max, I don’t think it will have any different on the noise level.
As for the power switch, it is designed on the left side.
HDD can be assembled separately instead of disassemble whole PC, quite convenience.
As for the memory, I use Geil, the design and color are quite nice, as well as the price, so I took the sales’ recommendation. Cost USD70.00
ow is about MB, I was thinking maybe can assemble an overclocking PC, but after searching online, lots of users recommend MSI Z97 Gaming 5, and there is no white MB at that time, so I just bought MSI gaming MB with black and red theme.
Then, the tragedy happened………
MSI just launched the white theme motherboard…. Z97S SLI Krait Edition……
And my Z97 Gaming 5 cannot be returned…..so… I just lie to my girlfriend that there is no white MB…finger crossed that she will not find out…..
Otherwise, the MB will be under my knees not in the case….
This is the one….why can’t MSI launch it earlier….
Forget about the sorrow, overall that MSI gaming motherboard is really nice.
All the features satisfy gamers’ needs, like they enhance the audio, and equipped with Killer LAN on gaming series MB.
Well, so far so good, no complain.
Like people said: good things come in pair, but it became bad thing come in pair to me….
I was planning to buy a 660 for this rig, I think it will be enough for my girlfriend.
Who knows that GTX970 got launched, and it is not that expensive….so…. I changed 660 to 970 and plus the CPU 4790….
Although just add few penny, but I really don’t want to live the life with bread…
Here are some pictures with shinning LED.
Just find out that VGA also have LED with dragon, can tuned as shinning, breathing, on and off. Amazing!!
This is whole rig picture, I bought the red fan to match the MB theme color.
There is a red line nearby the audio chipset section, according to the information online, they made some adjustment for the audio to avoid the Interference.
Let’s run this new rig with 3D Mark.
(I am not sure how to see the numbers with the efficiency actually….)
Then let’s try out LOL ~
Wow~~ NEW rig with good luck. How amazing it is!!!
I tried again for to make a team with friends, see ~~ this is the first time that I got this number!
In order to figure it out if this is really about luck or not, I tried another game: Diablo 3 Farming. The rumor said it will increase the mission success rate when you use a new pc…. Well, I was thinking it just a rumor….but I was wrong…..
This is the result within 1.5 hours… see the magic?
So, I opened my mobile to play Tower of Saviors….
How lucky am I!!! 3 special cards in a row during the lucky draw… that didn’t happen in my live until now….
Last one try out this mobile game not that popular as Tower of Saviors….   
Well…. I am on my way to buy the lottery…

so funny hahaha
I trust that ''Beginner's luck” is real.! good luck for the game, bro~

  • Have you heard about "Softpedia" and the program "Burn"?

    I ran across this site (Softpedia) from a Leo Laporte mac news podcast.
    I have a CRT imac and have an external CD/DVD burner. I can play DVD's and CD's from this and have even burned CD's.
    Have you heard about this site? Any good/bad news I should know about them?
    I have upgraded my hard drive so I have over 100 GB of space, I’m running system 10.3. 500 megs of ram.
    I know I don’t have toast, but may want to try burning a DVD, will Burn work? Have you Heard anything about this program. Free sounds good to me! But is it too good to be true?
    http://www.softpedia.com/reviews/mac/Kiwi-Fruitware-Burn-Review-44220.shtml
    http://burn-osx.sourceforge.net/

    Haven't heard about them . I use Disk Burner from centromedia ( http://www.centromedia.com/en/products/discburner/index.html ) that along with Patchburn ( http://www.patchburn.de/download.html ) . Patchburn I have because of the drive wouldn't be recognized without it ( came from an old HP pc ) Both are free . Disk Burner works great with iTunes , iMovie , iPhoto ,... it blends itself well with the OS just like it came with the system . Good luck.

  • I reinstalled my system on a new hard drive, from time machine. However my old photos seem corrupt within aperture. iphoto seems okay.  Have you heard of this?

    I reinstalled my system on a new hard drive, from time machine. However my old photos seem corrupt within aperture. iphoto seems okay. New photos take a long time to load as well.
    Have you heard of this?
    Thanks

    We need a little more information to be able to help.
    However my old photos seem corrupt within aperture.
    What kind of corruption? And when do you see it? All your images, or only some? Are the images distorted, discolored, or not displayed at all?
    Are you shooting in raw? Is your library referenced or managed? Is your library on your system volume or on an external harddrive?
    And it would help to know your MacOS version and Aperture version too.
    Regards
    Léonie

  • Have you heard of Mackeeper? Is this safe & efficient?

    Have you heard of Mackeeper? Is this safe & efficient?

    Avoid like the plague. If you are looking for maintenance see the following:
    Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility.  For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior;  DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. Drive Genius provides additional tools not found in Disk Warrior.  Versions 1.5.1 and later are Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.  Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger.  These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or Lion and should not be installed.
    OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
    I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack.  If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line.  Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion.
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
    Carbon Copy Cloner
    Data Backup
    Deja Vu
    SuperDuper!
    SyncTwoFolders
    Synk Pro
    Synk Standard
    Tri-Backup
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
    Additional suggestions will be found in Mac Maintenance Quick Assist.
    Referenced software can be found at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.
    Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.

  • Why have you not proccessed my refund after so many requests to do so after my upgrade

    I upgraded my creative cloud to include Adobe Premiere and was promised a refund of unused time which has never happened even after multiple requests not to mention I was charged more than promised.
    What do I need to do to actually have this taken care of.   All chat requests have promised it would be handled within a few days which has never happened.

    This is an open forum, not Adobe support... You need Adobe support to cancel a subscription

  • Have you noticed high fan RPMs after installing Quadro 4000 ?

    Just after I installed my new Nvidia Quadro 4000 for Mac I noticed that the fans are running at a much higher speed, everything else is working fine though, has anybody else noticed something like this ?, thanks

    Yes it has been reported.
    We have some threads over the last months, and on MacRumors.
    Do you have ATI 5770 in there also?
    I would use SmcFanControl 2.2.2 and boost the fans to get moe air flowing to begin and prevent heat buildup.

  • Have you heard this o

    Ok, I am new to this forum. I have a real problem, I have a Zen Vision M and I love it. But yesterday, I dropped it into the toilet!!!!! It isn't working. any ideas?

    It's happened before.
    Was it playing when it got wet or turned off?
    I would rinse the Zen Vision:M with fresh clean water, and place it on a clean towel in a warm, dry place for <i>at least</i> several days.
    If you see condensation inside the screen, it needs to spend more time drying out.
    Do not attempt to turn it on until it is completely dry.
    If there is a boating goods/marine electronics store in your area, ask them for help. They are often called to salvage electronic equipment that gets dropped off boats.
    Best of luck!

  • Have you heard of the Samsung Galaxy Note?

    Please tell me I'm not the only one waiting for the new Samsung Galaxy Note? I have been waiting almost a whole year for the newest and greatest Samsung to make it's United States grand entrance only to hear that it will only be making it's debut on the AT&T Network, please say it isn't so. Verizon get with the program it took you several years to get on the IPhone bandwagon please don't let the Note pass you by.

    Heard of it. I think I like the size, but not sure yet. It's going to be one of those I would have to wait and see what users are saying about it. There's more important things than having a size between a phone and a tablet, such as how well does the 4G hotspot work when tethered to your laptop? With AT&T's 4G, that could be a very interesting question. How good is the GPS. How's the sound quality. Reliability. How many end up coming back? Is using it as a phone difficult because of the size? What's the screen look like outside. Does the large size screen reflect more light? What's going to be the hit on the battery life to keep that big screen lit along with everything else that's running. Then, it's a Samsung and although I've had and like some of their electronics, like their TV's and monitors, I've never cared much for their phones.
    I think ASUS is the one I have my eye one. Everything they've done lately has been innovative and caught everyone's attention. Transformer. Transformer Prime, The Padphone, and showing off a 7" Tegra3 quad core tablet with ICS at CES for $250.00. Without a contract. I want one and I haven't really been on the tablet bandwagon. I've been waiting for the tablet prices to drop and I think ASUS is again in the lead with what people are going to want. Quality equipment at a reasonable, realistic price. In 6 months to a year, you may be able to get a very nice quad core phone and quad core tablet both for what some tablets alone are going for now. Thank you ASUS for starting the price drop on main stream tablets. I know Amazon started it with the Fire, and I already thanked them by buying my wife one, but theirs is a consumer device and not a fully loaded tablet for $250.00 like the ASUS.
    Nope, I'm not jumping on the note, or anything else new until I see what ASUS has coming out for us this year that's going to make the Note look sad and me glad.

  • Have you heard about the new iSmart Protection Plan for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touch mobile devices.

    Just wondered if you saw this announcement yesterday. May be worth looking into.  More than 300 news services picked up the press release.  There are
    reportedly millions of consumers without any kind of extended warranty coverage.  Well - this one was designed especially for you and is the best of breed on the market for ALL iPhone users!  Check out what they are saying!

    Well. This is not caused by any app nor is it a software fault in general. But someone told me, that the owner could have let change the screen after the damage that caused the dent. Anyway, this problem exists. The question is how many units are affected and why this is. However. Cheers.

  • Have you heard about the latest addition to our SAP Microsoft Interoperability Suite?

    As you have seen from the coverage we did at the Microsoft SharePoint Conference earlier this month we introduced a new interoperability solution with the name Power BI Connectivity to SAP BusinessObjects BI.
    This is a great solution that makes it possible for Business users to continue to work in their familiar environment such as Microsoft Excel to
    access trusted, enterprise data  through a SAP BusinessObjects universe. Business users can access data coming from a variety of data sources
    including SAP systems.
    Read Deepa Sankars great blog on SCN introducing Power BI and "be in the know".
    Enjoy! and let us know what you think.

    Yes, Read Deepa Sankars blog on SCN and learn all about it.

  • Have you heard of the new Zen Mic

    I'm so excited to get this...i've been like deciding whether to get an ipod mini or zen micro then i found this researching both and i've made my decision! isn't it awesome! I wonder if you can preorder...if you find that you can plz tell me... Thanks in Advance. Look at it here http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,895,847705,00.asp
    what do you think?

    Personally, I think viewing photos and having a colour screen on an mp3 player is kinda gimicky. Although the tech sheet at the PCMag site rerports the colour one will have a 5 hour battery life, viewing in colour will most likely drain the battery faster so I think the jury's still our on that one.(Anyone out there who knows better feel free to correct me on this... I'm just making an educated guess).
    At a release price of $249.00 (USD) it'll be out of my price range for a while anyways. But hey, the colour makes it look pretty neat.

  • What are you doing with software (games) designed to run on Snow Leopard.  Have you heard of anyone making a patch for LION?

    What are you doing with software (games) designed to run on Snow Leopard when the Os is Lion?

    It is up to the publishers of games to accommodate their software to Lion.
    Blizzard, publisher of StarCraft, WarCraft, and Diablo, has posted a statement about that -
    Blizzard Support
    Although they were able to create patches to allow the use of their (OS 9) games in OS X up through Snow Leopard, apparently from their perspective it is not possible to patch those games for Lion.
