    Mike I'm relieved to hear you say that. I personally have never had issue with stock coolers, but then again I'm not a serious OC'er or teh 1337 gamer. I was poking around asking about the Q6600 and people recommended that I bring that up to 3.0 with an aftermarket cooler. If you're saying I should be fine with the stock intel cooler that's good enough for me. Also, what's your take on buying a used CPU? I don't want to go with the I series processors yet, but the idea of buying a used CPU sounds.....wrong or something...

    Hey guys, I think I'm going to do a slight upgrade and get an old Q6600 quad core but I'm also thinking about a new heatsink/fan. However, it seems as if there are nothing but complaints about how badly fans and heatsinks fit, install, etc. Would you guys be able to recommend something? I get the impression that buying one of these things, especially an aftermarket one, is a crap shoot because of fitment issues in cases and whatnot. Thanks in advance...

    Lol. Yeah well I can live with just one. A Roy would've been nice but they're asking an arm and a leg for that s**t...

    Maybe they'll find her in the season finale...

    Yeah me too. I just want ONE example of the '60 VF-1 V2 and this would be the ideal time to get one...

    Atomic buddy, it's like this. You've already stated your displeasure with the t.v. series, and have pointed out why the comic book is superior. Even though I haven't read the comic books I'm willing to concede that the written work is probably superior. Nevertheless, the fans of the t.v. series, including myself, would like to continue watching and discussing the show for better or for worse. What Exo's trying to say is that you'v e already said your piece about the show; we get where you're coming from. For example, I used to be totally into toy collecting but my priorities have changed and now I think it's actually kind of dumb. Nevertheless, I'm not going to keep intruding into the Macross toy threads and tell them how much I disapprove of their collecting or the massive amounts of money they throw at the hobby. Every once in a while I'll give an opinion or two about toys or toy collecting in general, but that's it-these people are here to discuss toy collecting and they don't need my disapproval to rain on their parade. In summary we get where the fans of the comic book fans are coming from; we understand that the televised work is probably inferior but we want to continue enjoying it, for better or for worse. If you critics want to point out deficiencies in the story that's fine, but the t.v. VS comic debate is a dead topic...

    Toss up between my '60 YF21, Takatoku 1/55 VF-1S or my 1/48 Low Viz...

    And I agree with you on all of those points, as well. My optimisim for season 2 was fueled by my appreciation for season 1. As I've said, I think that by episode 4 they needed to dispense with the filler stuff and start moving the story along, whatever it is. I sincerely hope this changes in next week's episode...

    Sigh. Here I am devoutly supporting the t.v. show against its critics, only to be rewarded by the slowest and most pointless episode I've ever seen; I almost fell asleep watching it. I still give this episode 20 out of 5 starts however, because a fellow asian brother nailed a pretty white girl and that's ALWAYS something to celebrate. I think you and I can agree that season 1 was compelling, right? My point is I just wanted to give this season a chance to follow in the success of the former season. Now, we're about 25% into season 2 and in my opinion it's starting to drag, so in the end I may end up agreeing with you about the entire series, but here and now I just wanted to give it the opportunity to fly or fail on its own...

    I don't see why someone has to be well versed in the comic to have a separate and valid opinion about the series, which at this point seems to be so very loosely based on the written works. I'm not biased against the comics and strictly rooting for the series; as a matter of fact, I'm willing to wager that the comic is VASTLY superior to what's going on in the t.v. show. But again, I'm going to judge the two seperately because the series is a different take and interpetation on the Walking Dead universe. Someone doesn't need to have read the comic before they can form their own valid opinion of the t.v. series or even enjoy it. Will I read the comic? Probably. Maybe. I don't know. Even if I don't, I'll still anticipate every week's new episode because I'm genuinely intrigued by what's going on.......FOR NOW, and I can judge it for its own content...

    I wanted someone to take her out when she led that little excursion to Kobol-how dare she defy the old man! Lol, but later on I started agreeing with her views and actions...

    So I guess if you ever pull me over I'd better have my s**t together, huh...

    My first Macross toy was a '55 Takatoku VF-1S, bought by my mom in '87 and I still got it...
  14. myk
    Yeah you're right. I feel like pulling those dvd's out again. What a great show...

    I'll pay to watch as long as it isn't Aschton Kutcher...

    So Keith I take it that you've performed the defrag. Did you notice any difference in performance with your system afterwards?
  17. myk
    I'm surprised that this defrag thing doesn't come up more often. Does Sony not think that this is an important maintenance procedure?
  18. myk
    Well Shane was about a second or two from blasting Rick in the back in season 1; suffice to say that he's one messed up dude. Guess he's becoming a character to hate...

    Hmm...Just google'd that and learned about the folder. I wonder if this online stuff could be interfering with the movies. I've noticed that newer blu's, including Fast 5, Thor, etc. seem to tout online interactivity during playback...
  20. myk
    I'll watch this for Kate because she's so beautiful I'd drink her bathwater...
  21. myk
    Pardon my supreme ignorance here, but blu-ray data in folders and 'defrag? Input Stephanie, INPUT!

    I see where you're coming from.

    On my PS3 the system will freeze at the same spot on any blu ray from 2011. For example, Inception was the last blu-ray I bought in 2010 (I think), and it plays through no problem; all older blu ray's and standard dvd's also play with no issue. However, when it comes to blu rays like Fast 5, Thor, Bridesmaids, Lion King, or any blu ray's released in 2011 my system will freeze at the same spot in the movie during playback. From what I've read my optical drive could be going out, but you're the first person I've talked to that's had playback issues with only certain blu ray's. My system's clean, updated and is on for the better part of half a day. I couldn't begin to guess what the issue is. I plan to take it to a local repair shop and pay the $150 or so fee because replacing my fat system is not an option. Keep us updated...
