  1. I was just thinking that myself. Rock on when we get 80mph limits!
  2. I have one of those bug zappers but I was disappointed. I just sellotaped a couple of 25 microfarad motor run capacitors to it. Much bigger bang! Wasps are vaporised by it
  3. I've got A/C. And it's been getting some heavy use these past few weeks. Keeps me at 16'c when the outside was hitting 28 It'll probably be back in heat pump mode now though...
  4. It is interesting to note that all of the aeroplanes featured in this video are still flying... except one!
  5. It would be nice if BA painted up a couple of their aeroplanes in retro colours. Hmm, a BOAC 777 and a BEA A320
  6. It's just a shame that she's been killed again. For H&S reasons...? What bollocks! They have no such trouble at Le Bourget
  7. There was just something about the shape of the cockpit "bulge" and the engines that didn't look right. Can't really explain better then that I'm afraid. I'll still end up buying both though...
  8. The only thing I don't like is that it looks like the "crease" at the bottom where the cabin meets the hold doesn't seem to be there.
  9. Nice photos. It's just a shame you get ripped off when using the viewing park. No bother though, I just go the other side and get a better view for free
  10. The VC looks nice but IMO the external model has a few big inaccuracies regarding the shape.
  11. At this point in time: 30nm along the 120' radial of the Biorka Island VOR. 25,000 feet doing 284 knots true. B60 Royal turbine
  12. Well each pilot would probably have one so the chances of both going u/s is not very likely.
  13. Use my iPad to display sky vector flight plans. Rather handy.I
  14. Just had a little read, looks like I should well be able to hit 5 if I only need 1.28v to hit 4.5 fully stable. I did think I could get away with 1.25 v but after several hours of Prime one of the core's wasn't having it. Seems that your board still has a proper bios. This has been the first UEFI board that I've used and it took me a while to like it tbh.
  15. Yes, indeed! That was my iPad's bloody autocorrect! Never noticed. Currently sipping a generous measure of 12 yr old Caol Ila.
  16. That's a fine looking rig, I almost went for that case, 800D? Probably would have been better as I could have went with thicker radiators but I never intended to go the WC route. That case looks MASSIVE, I thought my 600T was roomy... :icon_thumbup: I need to find out just what this CPU can do. Just out of interest what voltage are you feeding your chip at 4.8? Pics updated*
  17. Sod the Vulcan... I want to see a Victor flying, and not just for a couple of seconds! Always thought the Victor looked ace. I'ts got that angry I'm going to glass you look.
  18. There really isn't any point with Sandybridge as the baseclock has been locked to 100mhz. The only way you can overclock these chips is via the multiplier. Could be worth watercooling the MOSFET's and VRM's but they don't get that hot atm.
  19. It's a bit cooler too as any heat generated by the CPU & GPU is immediately expelled outside by the radiators.
  20. Those new i7's are monster clockers... get that baby up to 4ghz :001_th_smiles89:
  21. Nice shots but why use a VC10 panel?
  22. R6970 added to the loop Ahhhh! It's so quiet now! GPU Idles at 30'c and never goes above 44'c under load With the old turbojet cooler on it used to idle at 48'c and reach a full load temperature of 87'c :icon_yikes:
  23. Fair enough, I should have put "tiny bit" instead For the Lol's. Starts off at the lowest setting of 20%. Then 38% that is the maximum it will spin up to by itself and then 50% and 100% for comedy... Referance designs for the lose.
  24. I'm the other way around, I want decent visual models but with accurately modeled systems and flight dynamics. I'll probably buy this when I can get my hands on a -700 version.
  25. Well I did have a Corsair H100 on pre-order but after it was delayed for ages I went for a proper kit instead. The reason why I (and everybody else) was going for it was the fact that it was a closed self-contained system with no maintenance and no chance for leakage. The few cases where a Corsair Hydro has leaked, Corsair replaced everything that was damaged by it! Looking at the reviews it performs a bit better then the best high-end air coolers. I'm glad I went this route though as when I next get paid I'm going to stick that graphics card in the loop... the stock cooler on that thing sound
