Macfadyen732 replied to Macfadyen732's topic in Computer Talk - News, technology, advice
Thanks for the input. however like you said i do plan on upgrading. Looking at the AMD Phenom II X6, and new Graphics in SLI. (looking at EVGA GTX 580s) As for choosing the XFX power supply, since this system wont see water cooling, its fan has the ability to turn off when its not needed keeping noise down. which is the main reason i went with it. I also want one that with overclocking wont have a problem delivering power. -

Thanks i tried.. this case doesn't have the best cable management options. next upgrades will include 2 Corsair Force Series GT 120gb ssds in raid 0, and blue uv sleeving. Possibly a XFX 1000watt ps. -

Never installed component speakers before..Need help!!
Macfadyen732 replied to Chrysler200s's topic in Mid's and highs
they are 100 rms per "side" and are 4ohm speakers so just run a speaker wire per chanel to each crossover. -
Just like most of the others that ordered theirs just before Christmas I too was able to tear into my car with the dd1. First thing that left was the Jensen DVD screen. Distorted at 26 and it was taken out, in went an alpine cda 9884. I have to say the sound quality after tuning is amazing; I’ll get into more later. However when doing my Rockford mono block I was able to turn the gain all the way up without showing distortion. Doesn’t seem right to me, ran through it 3 times with the same result. Just curious if anyone else has come across this.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone! -
Well after a day of delay on FedEx’s part, It arrived this morning. I haven't had the time yet to really get into it, most likely tomorrow. Pictures and videos don’t do it justice.... Its construction is awesome. Simply put, a lot better than I was expecting, although i shouldn’t have expected less with Meade. Shout out to Meade! Thanks for the quick shipment and signatures! I'll get into more about it and maybe a video tomorrow, when i have more time to dedicate to it.

Kenwood KDC-BT945U is the deck I installed on my girls jeep. has nice functions, plus the built in blue-tooth was a nice touch.

Finally found the camera cord and got the rest of the pictures: Stock Door: Tweeter installed: Mid 6.5 installed: Can't find the pics of all the holes i made unfortunately don't remember if I took any. I got the windows tinted yesterday I'll get some pictures up tomorrow of that, it's dark and snowing now. 35/20 Dark as I can go legally in WA. I said that I was going to go with Massive Audio DC-10's, but the T1 10's look nice. Also having a full Rockford system sounds real tempting. My next upgrade will most likely be rims and tires though. I was thinking of going with O.Z.'s on Pirelli P6's or Yokohama S.Drive's

I bought what i was told would fit in stock location's and it turned out that it wasn't going to work so instead of dealing with shipping them back and waiting for a different set. I made it work. I'll probably end up glassing the doors and side panels down the road. but for now it works and to me doesn't look bad.

Macfadyen732 replied to Macfadyen732's topic in Computer Talk - News, technology, advice
no thoughts? getting close to buying time and i still am undecided. -
My original plan was to get a 465GTX from EVGA, however now looking i have come across 2 other cards which i think would do better. but i cant decide between the 2. EVGA GTX 470: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130549 EVGA GTX 560 Ti FPB: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130604 now keeping in mind my motherboard is SLI Ready, so ill end up getting 2 of them down the road, just starting with one.

Computer UPDATED 2/16/12
Macfadyen732 replied to Macfadyen732's topic in Computer Talk - News, technology, advice
Well today didn't go as planned, busy as hell. Ended up droping $200 on windows 7, and got it up and running. I didn't realize that vista wasn't going to let me activate it on my new computer because I activated it on my old one before i went back to xp. So I had to spend the money now which I didn't want to do. But I did notice a huge proformance improvement from vista (which was the 32bit version) to 7 (64bit version), so I am happy about that. Pictures of it all running will have to wait though, until i go to storage and get my monitor and surround sound. and get it set up how i want it. Athough I am liking using my 32" samsung.
