What i want for Xmas
Well i was looking around trying to find some decent GPU coolers to have a look at, as i dont want my Graphics card to melt in the Chermside Xmas heat, and while i found a couple, there seemed to be only one sexy, yet highly efficent cooler that would fufill my goal of keeping my pc as cool as posible.
No matter the noise, just ask Ros about that, and the fact that we have to shut the study door when the pc is on and we are trying to watch tv.....
Its the Artic Cooler ATI Silencer.
While having a look around the site i found the Silencer on, i also found this little cadget.
Which in its self is nothing special, just a hard drive caddy with a fan straped on the end...
Hard Dock
Either way it tickled my fancy, as where my hard drives are presently located they are near a fan, but also in a area populated by about 70kg's or power supply cables.
Also i found this, which can work in conjunction (which i think means goes on the front of it....)
Is the Gatewatch.
Which is a fancy Fan Bus / Temp monitor that uses 2 x 5.25” bays and has a very snazy LCD monitor, which obviously displays the temp, fan speeds, and can also turn down fan speeds, the master volume, and other functions equaly as cool.
Plus is stylish...
Gatewatch
Both are relatively cheap, and both have a high not needed sense to them..
But they look cool, and i like the idea of the hard dock having a nice big fan at the end to cool down the drives, which could also be used to blow cool air over the hardrives and posibly right even out the back of the case, where the 2x 80mm Fans are presently sucking hot air right out of the top of the case.
Either way i might also get some rounded IDE cables, as again the top section of my case is a jumble of PSU wires and IDE cables....
I know when rounded IDE cables were first introduced there was a drop in speed in which the data traveled over them, due to the fact that pin 1 and pin 40 cables, were close to each other.
One of the whole reason that ide cables were made in a ribbon fasion was so that the shielding between pin 1 and pin 40 was sufficent that no curuption, or data speed was inncurred, at least thats what frank told me....
Anyway i would wager a guess and say some of you people that read this blogus maximus use rounded cables.
Is there still any loss of speed with the rounded cables?
I do like the factor of going from a 40mm ribon cable to a 10mm rounded cable, As the ribon cables really do obstruct the airflow.....
Well thats my craping on for the day. Or is it.....

3 Remarks:
As i said in the backwards post, i shall post backwards untill i get bored of it, aka the next time i blog.
The problem is u cant do paragraphs, well i guess u can if u turn a paragraph backwards then do another and another, but i dont have that kinda time, besides most people would just stop reading it.
Also i do propose stealing the We <3 nye poster, i have scouted it out and its a simple vynly cut text onto a threaded canvas sheet, eg if u pull it from the right hand side it will pull along untill it reaches the end of its runner, then it will come out of its runner, and then someone can spirit it away into the night.
I have devised plans and diversions complete with covering fire from other allies, i need 3 teams of ninja's.
What are u going to do with them wayne?
I dont know, ive always wanted to open a door into a warehouse of ninjas training...
Ahhh waynes world where would we be without u?
Twisted Pair
In a flatcable, a ground wire is lined next to each data wire to lower the electronic interference between the signals in each wire. This interference is one of the key deciding factors in the transmission speed that a cable is capable of. Instead of lining the ground and data wire next to each other, each pair of ground wire and data wire are twisted together in AC Ryan's roundcables. This improved deisgn reduces the interference significantly, resulting also in the possibility of extending the cable to 90cm.
This solves the problem...
Look at the date of dans article, august 2001....
glennis! you say you want the art of blog writing to prosper and spread amongst the masses, yet you write about over-our-heads irrelevant computer nerd shite. bring back the irrelevant non-nerdy shite!
