GPU Buying Guide - (Read first post) in Desktops ·
Time for a tiny upgrade...
I'm currently running an Intel Core i3
GPU-AMD Radeon HD5450
Motherboard-ASUS M4N68T
RAM-1x4GB DDR3 1333
PSU-Stronger SPSN-060P

So, I want to freshen this thing up a bit. What do you guys suggest? My motherboard can handle a decent amount and the power supply is fine enough... so what kind of GPU should I grab? And what about the CPU? I was thinking of swapping the RAM to maybe 4x2GB DDR3. Alright, your turn...

Caught it on TV last night after forever... A really, really watchful film.

which model?$20 Soldering iron - 50-$
Decent blue LED case - could easily be $100, $167

Chieftec GPS-450AA-101A at 450W.
Gigabyte GZ-X2 Black

Looks like it might be around $333....huh?

After all that pseudo-intellectual lecturing, posts like this actually make me smile...😁

True story. When you go in expecting absolutely nothing, you end up being pleasantly surprised. I actually liked it...

Kevin Hayes83 said:Honestly, Tomorrow is a much better movie than Red Dawn. Since they're basically tackling the same themes, I just couldn't stand that annoying brother character in Red Dawn...he was just so
unlikable compared to
the lead...

Oh, and I forgot to mention... what a total hack of an actor! What a garbage movie.
Red Dawn (2012) in Movies ·
Just watched it... and honestly, I’m still reeling from how much of a total pile of garbage it was, even if they tried to wrap it up nicely. I don't know about the rest of you, but I am officially fed up with these American superhero movies featuring bottom-tier acting and trash scripts... ugh!

Killer movie...

So, the headline caught my eye and now I’m curious. Everything I’ve read so far looks pretty bleak, which honestly left me feeling a bit shaken. I want to hear what you guys actually think—any real-world experiences to share? How are we even supposed to handle this better?
Hey admins, if this topic doesn't fit, feel free to delete or edit it! thx

drlog....when I saw that little girl climb out of the manhole and lift him like she was nothing... what does a kid even know about lifting 450 pounds? I just kept watching Queen's Reign
A Bronx Tale (1993) in Movies ·
I'm with the rest of you, it’s a great movie...
With all this madness involving remakes and mindless blockbusters, there isn't anything smart left to watch. Where are the actual good films?
Captain America: The First Avenger (2011) in Movies ·
Lately, they've been forcing these heroes down our throats, and most of them turn out to be total garbage. Is this just how it is now? Are we stuck being deprived of good movies? Although, I guess this one might actually be decent.

The movie was trash... but hey, I've seen worse!
The Hangover Part II in Movies ·
The movie is hilarious! People here are actually going to start demanding censorship... give me a break!

This movie is garbage... I've seen this exact same thing a hundred times before.
Anyone still running Windows 7? in Software ·
Taylor Morales31 said:Look, 32-bit never really showed any difference anyway. If you want 4GB so bad, just install 64-bit, though I don't know what you'll even do with it—just so the number looks bigger? 😁

Haha... Well, when I was buying RAM, I couldn't find a 2GB and 1GB combo, only 2x2GB sticks. That’s why I’m asking. Honestly, as long as I don't go over 3GB, I'm fine!
Anyone still running Windows 7? in Software ·
Seriously, why does Windows 7 32-bit only show 3.25GB of RAM when I actually have 4GB installed? Is it just a display glitch, or is the system actually limited to that amount?
Zachary Miller14 said:Guys, I went for blood work the other day and everything looks fine, except my sugar was at 6.1! Then I did that screening test and hit 6.3, and after the glucose drink, it was 7.3 after two hours—the recommended limit is 7.8. Should I be freaking out?

It’s not just "recommended," it means it *has* to be under 7.8! I see where you're at... but yeah, my cholesterol is a bit high too. Honestly, I think I need to get on a diet and actually eat better. My eating habits are a disaster... I don't eat all day and then just gorge myself until I can barely breathe. Peace.
Listen up! I went in for some bloodwork the other day and everything looks fine, except my sugar hit 6.1 on the finger prick! Then I did that official testing and it clocked in at 6.3, and after the glucose drink, two hours later I was at 7.3—when they say 7.8 is the limit. Should I be freaking out or what?
