Overclocking...now with more RAM!

Dec 31 10:24:47 [cinduhquil] Hi everyone, I'm working in retail right now.
Dec 31 10:25:13 [cinduhquil] My question is: how do I overclock a PC to 3.0 GHz from 1.80 Windows 8
Dec 31 10:25:27 [phydeaux8635] uh. download more ram.
Dec 31 10:25:31 [phydeaux8635] :D
Dec 31 10:25:40 [cinduhquil] No no, plenty of RAM.
Dec 31 10:25:42 [cinduhquil] 8 GB
Dec 31 10:25:48 [cinduhquil] But I wanna access the BIOS on this PC
Dec 31 10:25:49 [phydeaux8635] *facepalm*
Dec 31 10:25:59 [cinduhquil] Hey man, I'm a retail guy. Not a nerd.
Dec 31 10:26:09 [phydeaux8635] then don't even think about overclocking.
Dec 31 10:26:30 [phydeaux8635] not trying to be rude...but it takes a lot of knowledge, a lot of finesse, and a lot of research with some extra cooling usually.
Dec 31 10:26:42 [phydeaux8635] otherwise you can turn your 1.8 into a paperweight
Dec 31 10:26:47 [cinduhquil] So basically I can't overclock the processor using the BIOS is what I'm understanding right?

Kids, don't try this at home.

Dec 30 10:40:45 [looz] or wait, ask toolbar might solve the issue!
Dec 30 10:41:02 [phydeaux8635] along with Bonzai Buddy.
Dec 30 10:41:08 [Spiffelight] That must be it, you don't have ask toolbar installed
Dec 30 10:41:17 [Spiffelight] everyone knows that fixes most problems, just like deleting system32
Dec 30 10:41:39 [phydeaux8635] no, we determined instead of deleting system32, we rename it to system64....for 64 bit.
Dec 30 10:41:41 [phydeaux8635] duh.

What's in a name, anyway?

Dec 30 08:46:41 [+nagumi] "== TopHattedNinja is now known as bob "
Dec 30 08:46:47 [+nagumi] there's something about that that cracks me up

Which is heavier? 800GB of data, or a pound of rocks?

Dec 30 08:46:09 [BJabs] roughly how large would a backup of 800gb be?
Dec 30 08:46:20 [+nagumi] BJabs: it'd be 800gb large!
Dec 30 08:46:24 [Kumo] How much does a pound of rocks weigh?

Dec 13 08:58:59 [Kumorigoe] You can't handle my mentorship methods.
Dec 13 08:59:05 [deww] i'll make you mental
Dec 13 08:59:19 [Kumorigoe] Right now, for reasons that escape me, I'm being semi-pleasant.
Dec 13 08:59:32 [deww] :)
Dec 13 09:00:19 [littletimmy] i will buy everyone here free gift cards for their help
Dec 13 09:00:48 [littletimmy] kumorigoe, i am a loyal student
Dec 13 09:01:22 [Kumorigoe] And I'm an irascable, arrogant, condescending teacher.
Dec 13 09:01:42 [Kumorigoe] Ask anyone in here. They will confirm this.

Dec 15 15:07:42 [danielm] Hello!

Dec 15 15:07:47 [danielm] Erm

Dec 15 15:07:47 [stephen] Hey im back, i have the airport utility installed but its unable to find my airport device

Dec 15 15:07:49 [danielm] This is stupid

Dec 15 15:07:51 [stonethemonk] i have a coby kyros mid9042 tablet that belongs to a family member. a different family member did.... something to it that he said would "improve performance" and now the wifi simply wont turn on. any ideas? (sorry if i violated any rules, first time here)

Dec 15 15:07:51 [danielm] But

Dec 15 15:07:54 [motionblyr] Its odd, because it didn't flag up any errors....it just stopped

Dec 15 15:08:05 [danielm] What does a etherenet cable look like?

Dec 15 15:08:24 [landscapeitguy] stephen - the airport plugs into machine with usb?

Dec 15 15:08:31 [evilduke] @g ethernet cable

Dec 15 15:08:32 [slavei] (EvilDuke) http://www.amazon.com/b?node=464398 -- Amazon.com: Ethernet Cables: Computers & Accessories: "Results 1 - 24 of 66583 ... Online shopping for Ethernet Cables from a great selection of Computers &

Dec 15 15:08:50 [motionblyr] And I can confirm, safe mode is not BSODing. Something between safe and normal may be causing it?

Dec 15 15:08:51 [landscapeitguy] danielm - have you tried this site called google.com?

Dec 15 15:08:59 [danielm] dude

Dec 15 15:09:07 [danielm] F off.

Dec 15 15:09:14 [stephen] no, the airport is a seperate machine that connects wirelessly to the main machine

Dec 15 15:09:22 [stephen] Its like an ethernet cord

Dec 15 15:09:23 [evilduke] no daniel

Dec 15 15:09:28 [evilduke] seriously

Dec 15 15:09:32 [evilduke] this isnt google

Dec 15 15:09:39 [evilduke] if i can google your exact question

Dec 15 15:09:44 [evilduke] word for word

Dec 15 15:09:48 [danielm] ok motherfucker

Dec 15 15:09:50 [evilduke] and the top result is the qwsner

Dec 15 15:09:52 [evilduke] you fuck off

Dec 15 15:09:54 [landscapeitguy] jace - what do you mean cranking noise? is the fan working properlly? the cpu could be overheating

Dec 15 15:09:56 [danielm] Explain why im getting a error then?

Dec 15 15:10:00 [danielm] You fucking wouldnt know

Dec 15 15:10:03 [danielm] Cuz your a idiot.

Dec 15 15:10:07 [motionblyr] I would link to lmgtfy, but tablet multitasking

Dec 15 15:10:10 [landscapeitguy] wow danielm - youre being a dick to volunteers? really?

Dec 15 15:10:19 [danielm] They're being a dick to me.

Dec 15 15:10:21 [anon123223] well, you don't know either so you're just as much of an idiot

Dec 15 15:10:21 [mikee] Woah why is there agression in my channel

Dec 15 15:10:21 [stephen] "cuz" "your" two wrong word

Dec 15 15:10:23 [stonethemonk] damnit daniel! i have an actual question here.... kindly shut it will you?

Dec 15 15:10:24 [stephen] :(

Dec 15 15:10:35 [motionblyr] You asked what an Ethernet cable looked like

Dec 15 15:10:49 [danielm] Yep, they are lucky i didnt ask a complicated question

Dec 15 15:10:54 [danielm] their brains would explode.

Dec 15 15:10:54 [evilduke] then triped out when when we told you how to find out

Dec 15 15:10:57 [jace] like a pitchy noise and then bam restart it works in all the games i try to start then after the restart mouse is super slow and cant conect to internet need to shut down and turn it again besides that it works perfectly i can do everything

Dec 15 15:10:59 [landscapeitguy] might need a kick

Dec 15 15:10:59 [landscapeitguy] god we're so lucky, guys
