    pfsense 2.0.1 OpenVPN Configuration Guide

    I just wanted to say thanks for this writeup. I had been trying to get OpenVPN to run in TAP mode for a couple days now. After getting close with some ifconfig-noexec options (so that the ifconfig command wouldn't fail) and a tunnel network inside of my LAN network, etc, etc, I stumbled upon...

    i7 930 overclocking thread

    My h50 waterblock / pump unit was not firmly seated against the cpu (thermal paste contact on only 60% of the die). It is kind of a tight fight between the rad and the cpu, so the tension from the hoses wants to lift one side of waterblock up. No matter, I was able to get the retention bracket...

    i7 930 overclocking thread

    Thanks for the realtemp suggestion, I had missed that. It seems to be about the same as everett- I hit 90C max with 10 runs of linx testing at 185x21 @ ~1.200V reported, 1.235 set in bios. Doesn't that seem hotter that it should be, especially for the voltage that I'm running at? I followed...

    i7 930 overclocking thread

    Something doesn't seem right. I'm hitting 90C with core#1 according to Everett when I run Linx. The EasyTune6 app that came with my motherboard reports quite a bit lower temps (only ~78C while Everett core1 is at 90C). The ambient temperature here is a bit warm, but still this does not...

    i7 930 overclocking thread

    Thanks for the info. I'm hoping to make it to 4.2 with my h50. This should be a very nice upgrade from my AMD X2 5400+ (@ 3.2ghz), I can't wait.

    [Dell] HOT! Do NOT Miss!

    I paid $655 last Thursday and it arrived yesterday. The monitor looks fantastic. I pulled up Photoshop and made a massive gradient, and didn't see any signs of the banding issue that has plagued the WFP's. Now to just sell the tower... The deal appears to be dead now, it was sure sweet...

    List of retailers selling s939 1xx Opterons

    Yea i read about the bios restricting the htt, but it can be bypassed with an earlier bios. Although I did see that they have bios 1.4 out now, not sure what its capable of. Thanks for the help guys. I'll probably order a 146 from tankguys soon.

    List of retailers selling s939 1xx Opterons

    I'm looking at getting an opteron to run with a asrock 939 dual sata2 board, and I am having a hard time deciding to go with the 144 or 146. My memory is 2 year old corsair xms 3200 that won't run much above 200 (maybe 230 if I'm lucky), so my question is this; should I get the 146 for the...

    I couldn't agree more. Mass storage drivers is the only reason I even have a floppy drive.
