I used HD Tune Pro trial version and everything is all good. I dunno what's wrong with my computer . Fresh install over thanksgiving I guess

I had issues with my crucial, kind of like yours. Turned out to be memory issues which I didn't expect. Went out to replace the memory and ended up with buying ~$800 worth of new parts including a sweet ass Samsung 840 pro SSD

Well, after a process of elimination thanks to windows safe mode. The answer is skydrive brehs. It's so demonic, friends. So, so

well did my first overclocking on my AMD processor took it from 4.4Ghz to 4.8Ghz. Ran a stress test and my temps hit 67c. I think its safe to say imma need a water cooler system in order to OC it.

fukk.

both the kraken x60 and corsair h110 didnt have enough clearance for my case and mobo.
the kraken x60 missed it a by a hair (8 pin cpu cockblocked by a hair )




and while i was putting my rig back together to original state, shyt wouldnt power on so im like

so i look around and then realize the ground wire for my power switch clipped off i almost RIP'ed my case but forgot im alpha as fukk and just held the ground and power spots together and pressed power on.


gotta run to UPS in the morning to return the water coolers AND run to the hardware store for some electrical tape to jimmy the ground power switch back




what a demonic night, friends

67c ain't bad, or a 'dangerous' temp. although it's kinda high if you're using a non-stock heatsink

Valve released some info on In Home Streaming Today

http://steamcommunity.com/groups/homestream#announcements/detail/1496614934735532043

Many Steam game developers are currently working on native SteamOS titles, which will result in the best possible living room experience being delivered to their customers. In the meantime, we believe it’s important to make sure that the existing catalog of games is also available to Steam users in the living room. So we'd like to talk about in-home streaming, a way for people with good home networks to seamlessly play their Steam games anywhere in the house.

Steam in-home streaming will allow you to play a game on one computer when the game process is actually running on another computer elsewhere in your home. Through Steam, game audio and video is captured on the remote computer and sent to the player’s computer. The game input (keyboard, mouse or gamepad) is sent from the player’s computer to the game process on the remote computer.

Any two computers in a home can be used to stream a gameplay session and this can enable playing games on systems that would not traditionally be able to run those games. For example, a Windows only game could be streamed from a Windows PC to a Steam Machine running Linux in the living room. A graphically intensive game could be streamed from a beefy gaming rig in the office to your low powered laptop that you are using in bed. You could even start a game on one computer and move to a more comfortable location and continue playing it there.

Q: Is this like other game streaming services I've heard about?
A: No, you are in complete control over the hardware on both ends and the network between them. There is no data center, no subscription, and it's completely free!

Q: Will this be fast enough for me to enjoy my favorite game?
A: This depends on your hardware, networking configuration and how fast you want it to be. It's free, so try it out and see!

Q: Can I use this to stream games across the Internet?
A: The feature is optimized for home streaming and Internet streaming is currently not supported.

Q: Can someone use my computer while I’m streaming a game from it?
A: No, your computer is dedicated to running the game and input is coming from both the remote client and the local system. It would be very confusing if someone were trying to use the computer at the same time.

Q: How do I get selected to participate in the beta?
A: We will be randomly selecting beta test participants from community members who have joined the Steam In-Home Streaming group

I wanna try this to see how it works with my craptop
