Ah, another libertarian bait question by Kenny530.
...and FPOD delivers the libertarian mantra. All that's missing is speaking of "welfare parasites" who pull down the honest entrepreneur, the "true engine of commerce" and you'd have a perfect gospel of Ayn Rand on your hands.
In one word: madness.
In America inequality is so great, any talk that tries to put more power into the hands of the elite would just lead to more plutocracy.
http://sociology.ucsc.edu/whorulesamerica/power/wealth.html

WARNING! That's the lower *80%* on the last slice. Do you know what portion the lowest 40% would make? 0.1%... they wouldn't even show up. Close to 1/2 of the country owns virtually no wealth. It's not so much working poor, as working slaves.
Since when are regulations bad? Why are state programs and institutes by necessity bad? I for one like using good, reliable roads, eating germ free food and knowing that products won't endanger my life... if up to corporations, it's dubious whether I'd have any of that.
However I don't have to extrapolate. We know, *exactly* what happens when there's no regulation. This is what has happened in finance:
All of this came about, because the SEC and other regulatory organizations were stuffed with financial lobbyists, because derivative trading was *not* regulated.
...and the libertarian solution is even *less* regulation?
It's like a dream come true for the Koch brothers and the other real parasites . average Joe not only does everything in his power to kill the one thing that could protect him, but meanwhile they're also believing in the crap that makes their master richer.
Yes, parasites who're quick to suck on subsidy teats, but would kill Joe Average if he had the bucks to do the same if it cost them a penny.

Yeah, it was straight from the guys at Bethesda when I was looking for help with Fallout 3. I figured the 1.5GHz was a bit low, but I was too lazy to get proof when I asked them. Someone here helped me out with that though. As for overclocking, not likely as it's a laptop. I can play SC2 with it on high without the game complaining, plus I always leave it plugged in while gaming.As for the video files they are in a VIDEO_TS folder, so .vob, .ifo, and .bup files. I do have media player classic through cccp, but will it go through the "tracks" or chapters properly? Also I have one set that appears to have been on CDs, but the file extensions are .r## (r and two numbers) and there is one .rar tucked in. Any ideas on that one? (...crap. Yet another thing I forgot to redownload: 7zip)
MPC-HC should play the tracks properly (audio, subs, etc).
As for the rXX files, they're just a rar file broken up into multiple volumes. Extract the rar file and it'll automatically merge the content of the various files.

Well, I wouldn't usually compare a CPU (Pentium) with an APU... But strictly speaking, the Pentium is an out-of-date processor and its architecture is no longer supported by Intel. 1.5 GhZ is not that bad, but 6GB of RAM is great. Nowadays it's not really the clock speed (GhZ, MhZ etc.) that makes the difference but the architecture of the PC. By the way, is the CPU OCed? You might be able to raise it up to 1.8 GhZ (I don't recommend it though)... As long as you have enough VRAM then you'll be fine...For the second question, I would recommend an emulation software rather than actual DVD since you need to buy DVD and it should be faster if you emulate it because emulation uses instructions to read the ISO files, not a laser or things like that...
http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/a8-3500m-llano-apu,2959.html
Those support guys are dumb. If all they can spout is "the clock-rate is too low", then they're just a bunch of apes stuck in the megahertz wars.
Read here about what the chip should be able to handle:
http://hothardware.com/Reviews/AMD-Fusion-A83500M-ASeries-Llano-APU-Review/
BTW the 3500M has a *base* speed of 1.5 GHz. It's *best* speed is 2.5 GHz. Why the two figures? The CPU *automatically lowers* its speed when not in use to conserve power. (Since you're likely on a battery).
These things can run Far Cry 2, so the idiot who told you otherwise had no idea what you're talking about.
What format are the DVDs stored in? ISO/mds/cue? Those are image files and need a CD/DVD emulator like Daemon Tools to access without burning them to a CD/DVD.
If the contents of the DVDs have been just copied to the hard drive, then the files you need to look for are the VOB files. Media Player Classic Home Cinema can play these.

RAM is quite cheap nowadays, so I'd buy at least 8 GiByte. Buying 2 x 4 GiByte sounds like the better alternative, as it leaves you 2 more slots if you want to upgrade in the future.

Yeah, I guess 2 sticks-o-4GB ram is good...
And you never gave me your thoughts about the board :|... Then again, I guess this is the best I'll need; AM3+, 2 USB 3.0... wait...
How do I know if the Mobo and Graphics card are compatible with one another?
I already commented that the MOBO seems to be out of stock, i.e. unavailable.
Graphics cards are a lot less picky. If the slot fits (PCI-E) it works.
More info here:
http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm?catid=260&threadid=126352
The gist:
Any PCI-E card will work in any PCI-E slot where they can physically fit. (So if it's a x16 slot, i.e. graphic card slot, it will work). However if you have a PCI-E 2.0 card in a 1.0 slot, it will operate at "half speed" as only half of the specified bandwidth is available.
PCI-E 2.1 only implements some management features on top of what PCI-E 2.0 knows, so using a PCI-E 2.1 card in a PCI-E 2.0 slot won't affect performance.
Both the MOBO I've linked earlier and the one you found (but is out of stock) have a PCI-E 2.0 slot. You can check this stuff on the details tab of Newegg.

Oh brother, it has been already proven many times by Doctors, ask someone who had a prostate exam (if you find or know anyone), He'll tell you, Look bro, if you like doing something as reckless, then go ahead, i'm not gonna stop you, but if you're gonna come to a thread about sex and talk about it in general then i think you'd better gtfo, let's see you "resting your case" with your nonsense crap.
Are you really this fucking dense? Post/link something with a fucking citetation or GTFO!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostate_massage#Risks
"In addition, prostate massage can be risky when not properly performed. Vigorous prostate massage has been documented with consequences that are life-threatening: periprostatic hemorrhage,[5] cellulitis, Fournier's gangrene,[6] septicaemia, possible disturbance and metastasis of prostate cancer to other parts of the body, and hemorrhoidal flare-up.[7]"
There I highlighted the key words for you. In simpler terms: yes, like everything else there are risks if it's carried too far/done too forcefully.
Your urologist will likely swear you off it, since if he doesn't your dumb American ass may sue him. Telling you it's bad idea is the failsafe option that his (the doctor's) lawyer will recommend. Pointing out that as usual if you act in a dumb/reckless manner you endanger yourself leaves you the room to still sue him.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostate_massage#Prostate_massage_as_sexual_practice
"Prostate massage has become a common sexual practice in couples' sexual lives as men experience high levels of pleasure from it. Also, the advent of equipment and products for prostate massage encourages people to try it. Many couples though do not purchase such devices but use the finger for anal penetration and prostate stimulation to enhance the man's orgasm. The finger or the prostate massager is introduced into the rectum through the anus and the prostate gland is gently massaged. The main problem in using the finger is that it may be too short to reach the prostate gland.[17]"
There highlighted the important part, as you seem to lack basic comprehension skills.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157262
Oh, this one is nice! Thanks for the find!
Price was never really much of a factor (Well, ok it is, but still)...
Anyways, here's a noob's question:
In terms of memory standards, what's the diff between 1333 and 1600? Is it just in terms of speed? or is there more to it? And how big is the significance?
Short answer:
It's like top-speed a car can go with its current suspension, body, etc. I.e. a MOBO that supports 1600 MT can run RAM at most at 1600 MT. However to actually do that you need an engine that can handle that, i.e. RAM that can handle it. However if you have RAM that's rated for 1600 MT, but your MOBO can only do 1333 MT then it will only be run at 1333 MT. MT = Mega Transfers. This is a multiple of your FSB, read below if you wan the details, nowadays it's 8 x FSB.
CPUs have a nominal FSB/MT rates. You have to "run" them at this rate to get their performance. To use a CPU, both your MOBO and your RAM needs to support the FSB it has been made for.
Over-clocking:
CPUs can be run at higher FSB, this is called over-clocking, but it has some caveats:
1. It tends to void your guarantee.
2. It increases wear on your parts.
3. Increased chance of meltdown. (Thankfully modern CPUs have built-in safe guards. Older ones didn't).
4. ...you need better cooling.
5. It's expensive.
6. Perceived performance gains tend to be very subtle, you might need to do several tunes, so their net effect becomes noticeable.
...all in all, unless you invest in some extreme hardware (big bucks), over-clocking is only good for bragging rights and has little practical use.
Long-winded answer:
What's FSB? Front-Side Bus, this is the speed at which data is exchanged between your CPU and RAM. This tends to be between 100-400 MHz.
What's the relation between FSB and the MT number on RAMs?
DDRx (Dual-Data Rate) RAM exchanges a bit both on the start and the end of a clock cycle. Therefore if you RAM is rated for 400 MT, then your FSB clock is actually running at 200 MHz. With DDR2 this was once again doubled, so DDR2 transfers 4 bits/cycle. With DDR3 it was raised to 8 bits/cycle.
Nowadays, typical DDR3 rams are rated at 1600 MTs. MT = Mega Transfers, or how many millions of bits are transfered each clock rate.
Summary:
DDR1 MT -> 2 x FSB
DDR2 MT -> 4 x FSB
DDR3 MT -> 8 x FSB
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Front-side_bus
What's the connection between FSB and processor speed? Your CPU's clock rate is its multiplier x FSB.
For Intel chips this tends to be fixed - except for some really expensive models - so the only way to overclock an Intel CPU tends to be through increasing FSB. On AMD processors the multiplier is sometimes locked, other times it's unlocked.

...all the others boards with 2 PS/2 connectors are enthusiast models, with excessive features you'd likely never use, aimed at over-clockers and costing upwards of $150.
PS.: Asrock and Asus are the same company, these are just two different brands from the same manufacturer. Asus for the mid-to-high end products, Asrock is for the low-to-mid.

It's an AM3 board, with AMD 870 north-bridge, i won't be able to take advantage of the Bulldozer chips when they come out. For $5 more you could get an AM3+ board (with 1 PS/2 connector). For a bit more ($15) an AM3+ board with two PS/2 connectors... or just spend $5 on a USB mouse and buy a $100 AM3+ board.
If you're strapped for cash, you might buy a cheaper video-card and upgrade later on by selling the card on e-bay/etc. and getting a better one. Keep in mind, that installing expansion cards, GPUs, CPUs is a breeze.
Replacing your MOBO by comparison can be quite a hassle as Windows usually can't survive the transplantation and needs a "repair reinstall" that installs the appropriate drivers for the chip-set or clean reinstall.

Naah, I trust the guy... but looking for my own PSU is good too... like I said, I'll be using the link you gave me...
In regards to the Mobo, apparently, I made an epic fail with choosing it. If you can, help me look for a mobo that has the following:
USB 3.0
2 PS/2 slots (for both keyboard and mouse)
At least a SATA 3
AM3 or AM3+
Maximum memory support of 8GB
Here is the list you might want to browse. These are AM3+ boards in ATX form. (There are two micro ATX mobos, but those don't support USB 3.0). Their price is around $100.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007625%20600138080%20600009016&IsNodeId=1&ShowDeactivatedMark=False
This is the only board close to $100 that has 2 PS/2 sockets:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157262
Among the AM3 boards, this is the cheapest that has USB 3.0:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138318
It's already $70, so the better ($100) MOBOs are not that more expensive. It's also an old model though that *won't* accept newer CPUs. The manufacturer is not a brand name either.
Here's a similar AM3 board from Asrock at $77, but this only has 1 USB 3.0 port:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157195
...another AM3 board from Biostar at $80:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138303
...and the next AM3 board from Asus is $95, so you might as well buy an AM3+ board:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131651
IMHO not spending an "extra" $30 now will just bite you in the ass in the long run as your motherboard won't support Bulldozer CPUS, (which are the newest family of processor under development from AMD).
All of them support SATA 3 (SATA 6 Gb/s) by default.
You typically "only" get 2 USB 3.0 slots, the rest are still USB 2.0. This is OK, as only a handful of devices (e.g. handheld cameras, external hard disks) will take advantage of the bandwidth, while for input devices it doesn't really matter.
You might also just buy a cheap USB mouse (unless you're a serious FPS fan, though you haven't given that impression) and buy one of the AM3+ boards with only a single PS/2 slot.
Buying a USB 3.0 expansion card may also work.

Well, life (or health care) is not just fun & marshmallows in a univseral system either... and I don't think a multi-insurance system can't work either. In fact health care systems all seem to suffer from similar problems.
It's just that without stringent regulations - thank to Reagenism - the American system has been corrupted to the core. That's what you get when you set loose corporations where maximizing profit does not benefit the public.
A universal system by comparison is inherently less likely to produce these kind of inequality. People still die, and might die from things they could be saved from if more money was available.... but at least even the down trodden and poor get a *chance*.
...in the American system, over 40% of the population is just SOL. You could make sanctimonious parables that they don't contribute to the taxes so they shouldn't receive any help... but this is bullshit. They're the ones doing all the shit tier jobs in the country. They contribute to the GDP, they contribute to the profit of the wealthy. Even the jobless do, as they consume the products built by companies.
However America the GOP seems to enamored with the idea of individualism, that they find *any* idea that has to do with *collective* responsibility abhorrent. In fact nowadays, if one goes by the GOPs slogens, your foremost right is the freedom to die:

It's often proposed that when you treat very old for something, the value you are getting out of it is less than when you treat someone younger. The treatment is often more likely to fail and/or the person is more like to die from something else in the near future anyway. The young person, if the treatment succeeds, is like to enjoy more life extension from the success. People are living longer, and thus getting more healthcare less efficiently, under this model.This isn't to say that we shouldn't treat old people or express embitterment. I just think that this is significant factor contributing to healthcare costs rising that isn't really the fault of bad policy or poor individual responsibility.
It's an ethical dilemma. One could choose to use death panels and set limits on individual treatment to lower the burden on the masses, but each individual life is valuable. But then there are limited resources. It's tough.
Both of my parents were able to live longer due to medical intervention between 2006 and 2009. My father had a double by-pass surgery. My mother was in the hospital for several reasons. One instance her kidney's were shutting down and she nearly died. The doctor's examination placed my mother at a few hours from death when she was admitted. Later she would require open heart surgery like my father but, to repair two valves in her heart and replace a third. Unfortunately, my mother passed in 2010. Under the models of Universal Healthcare my parents lives would have been sacrificed to "cut costs" (considering the grand total for my father's healthcare has amount to well over 1 million dollars worth of expenditures).I find the concept of sacrificing people lives for "cost" is disgusting, repugnant and dehumanizing of the people involved. They are people, not bloody numbers in an excel spreadsheet.
I'm sorry for your loss FPOD and glad that your parents life could be extended.
However your last comment is just not true. These are expensive procedures, but they *are* provided for in most universal care systems.
Whether you and your family lived in Hungary, Korea or a number of other countries with Universal Health Care they'd have still received treatment to save their lives. If it took a bypass, valve replacement then that's what it would have taken.
They might have had to wait for the non-immediate operations. This would have been the case both in Canada and in Hungary. In Korea they'd have likely received the same care earlier. In Canada or Hungary they wouldn't have had to pay anything. In Korea they would have had to pay a small portion of the medical costs.
Yes, some things *are* limited in universal health care as they are not universally affordable. There's just not enough money for that. Things like experimental cancer treatment. In Korea you could still receive these treatments but you'd have to pay for them.
...however even in countries with universal health-care you can *still* buy a health insurance. These cover only elective, experimental or high-cost procedures if your system includes paying a small portion of costs (e.g. the Korean).
Is there a death panel? Yes.
Is the American system any different? No.
Instead some doctors deciding - and deciding for everyone - whether the country as a whole can afford some procedures or not, you have a panel of lawyers who try to deny *whatever* procedures they can.
Your cancer may be a pre-existing condition. You're SOL. The insurance company won't pay. Your treatment may only take place at specific hospitals... with a backlog. If you don't jog over there - even if you're in grievous pain - the insurance company might not pay.
The American system is plagued by the very same problems the GOP ascribes to "universal health care", and whether you're saved or not ends up a question of whether you can pay or not... or whether you've paid enough for an insurance earlier.
You still have death panels, it's just that you never get a hearing and those sitting on the panel will do everything in their power to deny you treatment... for that's the only way to maximize profit.
Do you have any idea how many procedures are considered "elective" or "experimental" in insurance lingo? Like getting *two* cochlear implants, instead one.
I don't argue that the universal systems are better in all ways... I just have to point out that what you argue is not true, or at least not any truer than what you already have in the USA.

DON'T skimp on the MOBO or PSU as the former may limit your upgrade paths, the later may fry your whole system!
thanks...
But I'm happy with this... Looking for a Mobo was a serious pain.... upgrading? I do't think I'll be upgrading anytime soon... I've had my worthless PC for over 4 years. I think I'll be able to manage with the set I've shown for many years to come...
I'm not really a computer nut that's enthusiastic with upgrading my PC like crazy; I'll be happy with one build that can last for years. Playing games at low (if not average) is ok with me; if you knew how bad my pc was, playing a game on low settings but getting at least 30 frames a sec is more than enough for me... i mean c'mon... have you seen a pc go below 15 frames?
As for the PSU, I'll look into that, thanks... or maybe I should let the store vendor handle that? he's smart enough to recommend good parts; such as the cheaper Phenom II x2 555...
I wouldn't leave that to the vendor as they tend to slap shit tier PSUs into most configurations as users usually don't give a damn and that way they can shave off almost 50-100$ of their "bargain".
...what's hard about getting an AM3+ board? A single search at Newegg gave me this:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128504
...as I said, just a couple of bucks more expensive.
Keep in mind though, these (just like your originbal choice) are *micro* ATX boards meant for small desktops, so they only have a few expansion slots, ie. your case could accomodate a bigger one.
As I said, don't scrimp on the MOBO as you might want to upgrade in the future. You might want to get an SSD, some sort of interface card (the successor to firewire, USB, etc).
These two are top of the line boards, and are only a $100. Not to mention they have a 9-series North-bride, so they'll support the Bulldozer whenever it comes out.

...of the two, the later is actually more powerful as it *can* deliver its wattage, while the former can't. Both should be sufficient for most systems.
No, you *don't* need a 700W PSU... if you buy a reliable brand. This is because shit tier PSUs can usually deliver about 50% of what's on their label. 450W tends to be enough for anything. Buying a shit tier (in terms of manufacturer), high wattage rated PSU is a waste of money as it won't deliver what's on it's label! It might "only" cost 1/2-1/4 of a brand PSU, but it will deliver only as much... in other words these tend to be, useless.
If you gotta have more wattage (though why is beyond me), you should buy something like these:

Read the link in my signature on how to make a hentai catalog of your own. That should explain everything.
You might also use Comic Rack and use the Tags from filename plugin to automatically parse everything into Comic Rack's own database.

i Like how people say "Anal is not normal", It is normal since You're doing it with a girl, and you're both getting pleasure from it (Although a few girls had bad experiences with anal), so it's all normal, on a side note, Anal is way more common in real life than you think, Like seriously, Male to female anal was happening since the dawn of time, anyone who says otherwise is just dumb and ignorant.Also @Flaser
Really dude, did you have to mention the Prostate in an sex topic? I'm not saying it's "Gay", Yes i do admit it is weird,bizzare, unusual, whatever you want to call it, But concidering the Risks, i wouldn't even think about it, It's not a wise choice to experiment something that might do some serious damage for a one-time experiences that will make me go through hell, and it has already been proven many times that it's just as risky as drinking an old ass outdated milk.
Where did you get it in your head, that it's safe/OK for girls to take it in the rear, but not guys? Gay men would have some choice words with you.

Just be wary of files and opening stuff.. scan before you open zips/rar/exe.
cause for my all my games i use a differnt email so if i dont access or open any emails from him im good right?
You could always call the police. Black mail *is* a crime and so is unauthorized access to computer systems. If you have records of all his conduct so much the better. You could also contact the administrators of the game/site you're using.
Write a letter of complaint, use formal language and warn them that unless they take the appropriate actions you will sue them, both for allowing such conduct as well as for facilitating black-mail.
