Thanks. That looks good. Is there much of a difference between the B85M motherboards available from various manufacturers?

A friend of mine wants to upgrade his old rig. He already has a few recently-bought parts that can be re-used, but I'm not sure about the PSU (Antec VP450P). Details below: What is your budget? 20k, may extend a little, especially if the current PSU won't suffice. I'm looking for multiple...

^ I understand all that. I want to know what solution he is working on.

Can you explain what you're trying to do briefly?

I'm not sure I understood what you said. Are you making your own framework?

TL;DR: Forget it. Take your time to pick a good framework and stick to it. Longer version: [Element = HTML element, a.k.a. "tag"; Component = Framework-provided stuff - buttons, menus, etc.] You'll need to use a JavaScript script to translate class names in the browser, or, like you...

You can use the first script with Apache or nginx. The performance should be about the same with either of them for your usage.

You're welcome. I do suggest you try this on multiple setups. The fact that the speeds reported by the app and your FTP program are similar could be a co-incidence and might not be true for everyone. I don't know why that could be happening either, but my best guess is that node.js isn't...

The code honestly looks horribly written and I don't even understand the purpose of some parts of it, but I was able to find a solution that works: delete lines 33 and 104 from bin/speed.js

You're very welcome. I'm not completely sure, but it's probably because when downloading, the file has to be read from the hard drive but while uploading, the data is only stored in RAM. To normalize the upload and download speeds, you can replace the download file with a simple script which...

Okay, I did some quick tests and it looks like Mongoose by default simply terminates the connection if you try to make a POST request. Firefox reports an NS_ERROR_NET_RESET and Mongoose reports this: [<timestamp>] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] POST /post.aspx: mongoose.c:1349...

I've never used Mongoose, so I don't know if it'll work for sure, but the author's idea is to change "post.aspx" in line 38 of default.htm to something else, like "post.php" or "post.pl" (just make sure a file with that name exists). You might also want to check if there's a size limit for...

I'm really not that serious about this PC. My initial plan was to give up and sell it if I couldn't find a decent cooler for 1k or so. But then I figured I could easily re-use any of the suggested coolers in other rigs or maybe sell it along with the old parts when I don't need it any more. So...

Thanks. I always wanted to try undervolting just for the heck of it. I don't have the time to do it right now, but I'll try it in a couple days and report back. I honestly don't think it'll help enough to keep me from buying one of those coolers though.

The Vulcan was just a random example (although it does look great). But I'll keep what you said in mind. I guess that answers all my questions. Thanks everyone for your inputs. I appreciate your help. If there are any comments or suggestions that you'd like to add, please feel free.

Thanks. I definitely like the DeepCool cooler so far. Just to be sure, it can be used in something the size of, say, an NZXT Vulcan, right? I don't plan to use any of those super-thin HTPC cases, but I probably will use a micro ATX case.

Sigh. Should have known. Nah, the X4 itself is pretty lousy. I don't want to go any (s)lower. There might be situations when I have to use the rig for other (possibly demanding) stuff. Alright, I think I'll buy one of the coolers you guys suggested. Which of the three would perform the best...

All three are definitely too expensive for my budget. That does sound interesting, but I don't think it'll work out. It'll take far too much time, and I can't even be sure it'll work. I've done this a lot. Under high load, the cooler cannot keep the temperatures lower than 60 and remain...

Thanks for your reply. Yes, Cool'n'Quiet is enabled. I also use ASUS EPU-4 Engine in Windows, which decreases the noise drastically, but it still isn't quiet enough. The fan was very noisy from the very beginning. Maybe it became a little louder over time, but unless oiling the bearings...

I plan to build a new rig soon and decided to re-purpose my old PC as a living room family browsing/multimedia rig. But to put it in the living room, I would need it to be very quiet. The stock AMD cooler (branded AVC IIRC) is quite horrible as far as noise is concerned. So I need to buy a new...
