First pictures of fire ants

Well they turned out pretty decently... I can get much clearer pictures in the full daylight... it was getting dark! Enjoy! :)

Went to Forbes piano store yesterday to look at grand pianos...

Its insane how poeple are playing the WoW games! Look at this church sign picture! http://www.tomshardware.com/gallery/ChurchofWOW,0101-173930-0----jpg-.html

20 watchers in 24hrs on my computer on eBay! 9 days left... I think I could have ended it sooner.. there's plenty of interest! :)

Got in a chilly 30min MTB ride today... it was 32'F and breezy!

eBay

I sold some ram to a guy on eBay in Sweden! International shipping isn't that bad for something small and light like ram... :)
Amazing!

Riding backwards

Here's a video!

I uploaded many albums and pictures on my picasa site! Some are from Facebook, I will post all my vids I had on Facebook on Youtube, and link them here. Check the pics out!

YES! I'm now the #1 in the 3dmark Vantage top 25 for single GPU solutions on www.eocf.com! :)

Trying out some more gmail experimental features... Put the chat box and labels on the left side and turned on canned responses! I like 'em! :)

3dmark Vantage results with Xfire x3!

Got a 4870 in there with the 4870 X2 and benched it with the CPU at 3.2ghz.

3dmark Vantage result

Core i7 air cooled at 3.6ghz, 4870 X2 at 777/975.
Here's my score! http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dmv=604850

finally.... 3dmark vantage!

I finally got 3dmark Vantage! I'll post scores of the i7 rig soon... and someday watercooled i7!

The custom built BMX bike from eBay came... and its very nice!
Some of the Core i7 build's parts are coming tonight, I'm exited! :)

The best Core i7 review!

WOW! This review is great, shows the power of the 4870 X2s and Quad CF, and 3 GTX 280s.... and is a very detailed comprehensive review on Core i7! Its a must read, the best article I have read on i7 yet! Core i7 obviously does help a lot in games, if you have enough GPU power!

Windows 7 GPU-less!

Interesting info on Windows 7 and the WARP technology... you can run games without ANY form of GPU! The CPU will do the work for graphics and loading its normal stuff... of course it is going to be REALLY slow... interesting though!

Neat info on Superspeed USB 3.0!

iGoogle

Trying out iGoogle and lots of gadgets... its pretty nice! We'll see how it work out in the long run, and how I like it... its cool to be able to check my mail... which I get notifications for pretty much EVERYTHING... then Facebook, eBay, and weather... everything I need! I'm posting this from the iGoogle home page... :)
Cool! Thanks Google creators!

BMX

Got a bunch of bmx stuff coming!
I'll post pics ASAP! :)

I like the Foxkeh theme for firefox!

The new Gmail themes are pretty awesome! Its about time they put that feature in!
I'm using the Terminal theme now... :)

Recording of As the Deer

As the Deer by Martin Nystrom Arr. by Mark Hayes. I played this in my church a few weeks ago for the prelude. I repeated some sections in this piece in the ending.

Here are the verses:

As the deer panteth for the water, So my soul longeth after Thee. You alone are my heart's desire, And I long to worship Thee. You alone are my strength, my shield; To You alone may my spirit yield. You alone are my heart's desire, And I long to worship Thee. I want You more than gold or silver, Only You can satisfy. You alone are the real joy giver, And the apple of my eye.

An alright recording of the Chopin Prelude in C Minor...

Core i7 broke a benchmark record on AIR!

The Core i7 on air cooling running at 4.27ghz beat a QX6850 on liquid nitrogen running at 5.35ghz! Its quite a CPU!!!
The news: http://www.custompc.co.uk/news/605127/core-i7-breaks-all-cpc-benchmark-records-on-air.html

A video on overclocking a CPU to 5ghz on liquid nitrogen!!!

This is a really cool video... they have liquid nitrogen, and OC a P4 to 5ghz@1.88v!!!! Thats a crazy hot CPU on a -199F heatsink...
Amazing!

They get 5ghz on the new Core i7 already, not even the extreme ed. btw...
http://xtreview.com/addcomment-id-6871-view-Intel-core-i7-extreme-overclocking.html

Here's a great review on the soon coming Intel Core i7! It is going to KILL the QX6850 and QX9650s! The difference is amazing!
One of these gets a CPU score of 24k in Vantage at 3.8ghz!!!
These guys hit 4ghz stable on a Core i7 920 CPU, and the guys at tomshardware got only 3.8ghz on the extreme ed.... they weren't pushing it much!
There is a limit to the CPUs that aren't the extreme edition this time, the limit for the CPU is 140w. With the extreme ed. you can specify the limit... so say turn it to 300w... and you have plenty of room to OC!

Can't wait for those beasts! Socket 1366, X58 motherboard that supports SLI AND crossfire, DDR3 TRI-CHANNEL ram, and a AWESOME CPU!

I've been updating this blog, put in my own custom CSS spacing and colors.... Had to mess with that a lot to get it to look alright on the picture.
What do you think about it?
Vote on the poll!

Flash drives and external HDs.

The Patriot Xporter XT 16gb flash drive came in. It looks great, works fine, and came with a lanyard and a usb extender. It's case is softish rubber. I think it is big enough for me for a while at least... the Sandisk 4gb was getting tight for games and movies...
Now I have Vista Home Premium 64bit on the 750gb internal HD, and Vista Home Ultimate 64 on the 160gb internal... with a 1tb and a 250gb backup external HDs.

My computer is one of the things that just LOVES this cold weather! ;)

Went for a ride on this chilly afternoon. Got to try out my tights... I tend to ride pretty hard when its cold... anyway it was nice to get a long MTB ride in! :)

I am really enjoying the Head First HTML with CSS & XHTML book! It is easy to learn, and is easy to read! http://www.amazon.com/Head-First-HTML-CSS-XHTML/dp/059610197X/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1225138923&sr=8-1

I got the ATI Catalyst 8.10 drivers yesterday for my 64bit version of Vista, and my score went down in vantage by 500 points. I might just change back to the other one until 8.11 comes...
There's also supposed to be a hotfix out for 8.10 I saw...

Everything is running great! The CPU is awesome! I am working on lowering the CPU vcore now... its down to 1.47v on load now! At load that is . It runs a lot cooler now that the voltages are down... So here are some of the settings things are running: CPU: 3.95ghz-395 bus, 10x multi. Ram: 5-5-5-15 at 988mhz. CPU MCH voltage(North Bridge) 1.40v. CPU VTT:1.40v. I'm really happy about the voltages, and the ram speed! I got a 3dmark vantage score of P10411 with the CPU getting 13531 and the 4870 9668.
Here is the CPU-Z validation link(click on it to get more details and the CPU-Z screenshot)
here
Attached is a screenshot of the 3dmark Vantage result and a screenshot of the cpu when it booted into windows at 4ghz.



(I had to add in the HTML for the CPU-Z link) ;)

QX6850

The QX6850 is here!
Its running at 3.9ghz, I haven't tweaked it much, but it ran 3dmark vantage twice, and 3dmark 06 as well... I'm going to continue testing of course...
The CPU scores in Vantage and '06 aren't as high as they should be, and I think that has to do with the 32bit OS. I will get Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit in a few days.
Pics attached! :)
