Hiatus!   Thu 08, Jan 2009  

Hey guys. I'm sorry for randomly dropping off the face of the earth for so long. However, I'm not actually gone. I'm still alive and kicking, just with a different hobby. I've graduated from fast computers to something slightly more interesting to me. In talking with a good friend of mine at school, we decided to start up a blog about Rally. We're planning on putting together a car to compete in, funds pending. Until then, we post on things that catch our fancy, from articles explaining how turbochargers work to discussing how Subaru pulled out of the WRC. Go check it out: TwoGuysRally. So will I ever update with a new review? Probably. It's just a matter of time I suppose. You can never really escape past addictions.

For any employers out there looking for a Mechanical Engineer with a deep love and understanding of computers, cooling systems and cars, please have a look at my resume, I'd love to hear from you.

 EPP Investigation   Sat 12, May 2007  
It has been almost a year since the introduction of EPP by Nvidia, and it is becoming a surprisingly common feature in performance memory. Is it worth using, or are overclockers better sticking with the traditional overclocking methods?

 Micron PC5300 2x1gb ECC   Thu 26, Apr 2007  
The term "Micron Fatbody" should be familiar to many of you. While not easy to get ahold of, it is special ram that deserves a place in our hearts for being the first high performance DDR2 chip. We have a look at how good its performance is in comparison to the latest batches of high performance memory.
