hey guys i was surfing youtube for awhile and i came across people disassembling PS3's and xbox 360s, etc, etc and i was wondering, just out of curiosity, coudlnt you techincally open up the console remove the parts and reassemble them in a PC case? if so wouldnt you get better ventilation and cooling techniques (case fans)?

just curious haha. if its possible it wud be a good idea for 360 owners that have problems with overheating haha

hey guys im jw about EVGA's video card step up service where they let you upgrade ur card to a new one within three months of purchase and they only charge the difference of the price of the cards. since the new D9E nvidia cards are scheduled for launch mid february (lunar february) iwas wondering if i ordered a 8800GT right now would that date still be in range with the 3 month requirement? im jw if the 3 month ends on february 1st of march 1st. i believe it should be march 1st but i want to be clear if EVGA decideds to tell people its actually march 1st or something lol

hm well im just thinking about putting over everything to the E: drive and reformat that drive because im not happy with the partition size lol. i felt like we added too much space to the C: drive which limited the D: drive size. this has given me free space issues when installing games so i figure ill reformat the entire drive and rewrite the partitions.
