This the first time I've heard of a mini-ITX gaming PC. Normally they're used for car stereos or silly "case mods" where they crammed the entire system into a football or something stupid likt that.

I'm sure if you stuck a mini ITX board on a table and put a modern graphics card in it, the thing would tip over due to the graphics card being heavier and the one single expansion slot being right on the edge.

Sure you're not thinking of Micro ATX?

The Silverstone SG07's a pretty popular case for ITX gaming.

The firm expects to see a $300-million dent in first-quarter revenue (since full volume production of 6-series chipsets won't resume until April), not to mention $700 million in total repair and replacement costs.

No real impact really.

Where do people even get 23.976 media?

60Hz is actually 59.94Hz and by extension 24Hz is 23.976. You divide by 1.001.

The 27" iMacs have 3 SATA ports, for SSD+HDD+Optical configurations.

I'm sure they're fine for your porn drive but performance isn't exactly encouraging:

FW400 is so much more efficient it significantly outperforms USB2 even though it has lower theoretical bandwidth.
First of all, it depends on whether you have a good (TI) or lovely (VIA) implementation.

But while faster and lower in CPU utilisation, it really doesn't *significantly* outperform USB2, and often in some cases like HDTach benchmarks, can end up slower on writes and about the same on reads.

But yeah, no idea why HardOCP's benchmark was *that* low.

vvv: Agreed, it's just that USB implementations seems to be more better in the PC world, no doubt boosted by the fact it's on the chipset.

Do you actually need a custom cooler for an i5-2500k?
Apparently not.
