The stupid button on my stupid shirt pocket that was holding my stupid phone in place decided to unbutton itself, very stupidly i might add, which in turn allowed my stupid phone to fall every so stupidly into the big stupid bucket...

You would look awesome in demon hunter clothing

This is digging back pretty far, but I want to answer.  I want to do a very serious DH costume for Halloween, and maybe dragoncon in September.  But I don't know which armor set to base it on, or how to emulate the metal pieces, or.... well lots of problems actually.  But there's still quite a few months, so maybe I'll be able to pull it off.

I've never done anything like that.  My only Cosplay so far has been I-No from Guilty Gear last year.  But I just passed my measurements off to some cosplay company and let them do all the work, so this would be totally different.  Something I really want to do to commemorate the year of D3 though.

Sounds awesome, I'll come as Headric your black smith and drool after you

[ScP_Iodine]

I have a fan that i sit my laptop on, it also has little rubber nubs so it doesn't slip off.  
let me rephrase that.. i sit my macbook on it. I'm a real winnarr guise XD

I wanna cosplay a witch doctor, just run around in a loin cloth and a mask shouting a bunch of gibberish and throw jars of spiders at people. I think it would go over great

You can be my blacksmith, if I can be your aprentice and learn to make all the weird fake metal bits I need.

Does anyone else watch Let's Play videos?

I've found myself enjoying them more than actually playing games lately. I've found a few people that I just love to watch because of their commentary.

Toby is one of my favorites:

My wife and son watch Tobuscus religiously. Myself I can only take a few minutes before losing interest.

[ScP_Iodine]

Yes I've been addicted to ForceStrategy lets plays and commentaries for months now, as well as BlueXephos.

There have been times where I've sat and watched SC2 commentary for hours on end

Edited by ScP_Iodine, 13 April 2012 - 04:31 AM.

[Daemaro]

I watch BlueXephos, OMFGCata, TotalHalibut, Yogscast2, YogscastSips, YogscastSjin, Siaynoq8, sometimes Force, I'm really addicted to lets plays.

[Tralari]

It's weird I used to really like Yogscast but anymore I can't even watch any of their videos. Same with TotalBiscuit, although I'll click on his videos if something interesting pops up from him. TB has a really good voice so I don't mind listening to his videos in the background.

Other than Tobuscus I watch ZackScott from time to time. Otherwise I just look up a game I'm interested in playing and look for a decent Let's Play.

[ScP_Iodine]

32 days and ill be too busy to waste time on watching lets plays. I'm so excited for d3 i could explode. Kind of happy about not having beta so when it launches i get the whole game right from the start.

[tankodiablo]

Some of his aren't that great, but some are really good. I watched nearly 35 parts of his Skyrim lets play.

I have 7 fans in my computer (that's including the PSU, CPU Heatsink, and Graphics card) with room to change the 200mm top fan into two smaller 120/140mm fans and the addition of 2 120mm fans on the bottom of the case. Would that be overkill? And what does it mean when I can put in 2 x 120 / 140mm fans? Two links for your convenience.

CM Storm Trooper

Kudos, I have the CM Storm Enforcer. I'll rather go overkill than to let something burn out. I have two 200mm fans; one in the front and one on the top. SO nice and red!

is your pc noisy with that amount of fans?

That's what music is for!

Exactly, I never not listen to music when I'm on the pc. First thing I do when I start up my pc, is opening winamp (oldschool is the best kind of school) and start playing some music.

STUFF

Lmao that was entertaining fred =D Make sure to watch your GPU temp though, with your GPU's fan that low it could easily rise and start to melt your card D= My noisy ass GTX 470 gets up to the maximum (as in I reach the top of the chart) of 108C (yes, Celsius) when it's at like 30% or lower fan speed, even on D3 beta. But I like to keep the temp around 70C and my fan speed at about 70% which isn't that noisy at all.

TLDR; Make sure you temp is good =D

Love it, hehe stuff

ok ive looked online but i didnt find anything usefull

very very very noob question coming up

if i set my BIOS to factory default will it

A, remove windows
B, remove anything else important, like drivers
C  screw shit up
D, games i have installed etc and music

i have never tweaked anything in my BIOS

will i be ok if i reset it it the boot screen?

also i dont have a copy of windows 7, as my pc is a dell, yes i know, dell is shit

Edited by FreddyBenson, 13 April 2012 - 04:14 PM.

[VegasRage]

If you set your BIOS to factory defaults it will set it back to the safest settings for your system, it won't effect your operating system, drivers or anything like that. The worst that would happen is your boot device order might change but that won't affect anything especially with a newer computer.

Also the fan that's making noise might just not be centered properly, if it's off balance it can make a whining noise that sucks. In that case the best thing to do is replace the fan if you can or see if what is causing it to be off balance. A sticker not placed dead center on the top of the fan could cause that noise or maybe it's ever so slightly hitting a wire. Little shit will make pain in the ass problems.

You can reset the bios without much explosions happening.  Unless there are settings related to running harddrives in RAID mode, it should just start up the pc to windows with everything intact.

Most of the time, when you reset, it switched to having everything enabled and all factory settings on aka default.
So you prolly need to adjust some values like boot sequences to stop annoying CD-rom bootups and disable other onboard stuff you dont need. (for example soundcards if you use an offboard soundcard)
