BBC story a watercooled PC

[bum]

Noticed two things:

1. When he was showing off Mirror's Edge on his pc, he fell right off the building on his very first jump.

2. At the end of the interview when the reporter's wraping it up, the guy's on the pc playing his game and he clearly didn't care about the reporter's presense and the entire interview.

Lol

Oh wow. I've never heard of this "watercooling" thing before. And overclocking?!?! Wow, that man must be a genius to be able to overclock.

Warning: above post may contain trace amounts of sarcasm which may be harzardous to some people's sense of humour.

i dont think anyone will be thinking hes any kind of genius after watching that vid.

ahahahahahah thats the funniest thing I'll read all day!
I hate stuff like this, people who clearly don't know what they are reporting about but go along for the hell of it and are much more learned by the end

 

[Mr Doovde]

Dave 'alias Mr Emulator'. Do you think he told the women that was his name before the interview to impress her?

Also, if you pause the clip at 00.38 secs, you really get a sense of how much of a weirdo she thinks he is

 

[Red and White]

I'm betting they received this one day:

 

[Mr Doovde]

You know, he kind of reminds me of the anarchist from Clockwork Orange.

I can read it but only very slowly. Clearly, I'm not nearly as geeky as I should be.

2. At the end of the interview when the reporter's wraping it up, the guy's on the pc playing his game and he clearly didn't care about the reporter's presense and the entire interview.

What game was he playing at the end? Was it fear 2?

 

[Yrkoon]

can it play crysis?

 

[Sinque]

can it play crysis?

No. It's impossible to run Crysis on max settings - the world would implode if such power was possible.

 

[Abraham]

watched this and the "how does watercooling make your pc faster" video this morning. The result of the latter is "watercooling is 30% better than air cooling"

 

[Wiggins]

His face after admitting blowing 2 GTX280's.

I would be thumping the desk and frowning as I said it.

 

[apeZ]

[Red and White]

[yantorsen]

I think you're all be a little harsh on the guy.

 

[Ging3r]

Don't dis this too much guys.

I've followed this build log for along time on another forum, and hes a great guy.

There is another article on it :http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7908141.stm

But more about the watercooling itself

 

[HangTime]

Something tells me he doenst get laid much..

...hence the 5TB of disk space

 

[Doohickey]

Well, that certainly hasn't done 'computer nerds' of the world any favours lol:

'David Penfold, alias Mr Emulator' :facepalm:
'You're welcome, thanks for coming' *ignores woman* :facepalm:
