    Strictly anecdotal evidence but any refurbished products I've bought have gone to shit or had to be refurbished again.

    The Beer Thread

    I've not gone through the first 37~ or whatever pages of this thread but what are everyone's top 5 chocolate beers (likely a stout or porter)? There's a group of 5 of us at work that discussed this a few days back. Some that were mentioned: Rogue Double Chocolate Stout Samuel Smiths Organic...

    ^ agreed. Excellent beer. Not sure it would be in my top 5 but definitely would recommend it. Go buy the 6 pack.

    If you like oatmeal or chocolate stouts or vanilla (etc) porters I'm sure you'd like them. Am I the only person who likes Left Hand's normal Milk Stout over their Nitro version?

    The Beer Thread

    Really? I wasn't a big fan of the ST Creme Brulee. Sam Adam's Cream was OK. Ditto to Tall Grass. Cafe Con Leche Stout from Cigar is stellar, as was Surly Four (quite possibly one of the best beer I've ever had, wish they'd bring it back). Word on Schafly: I've had many of their beers and was...

    Ahh... Hopslam. One of the few beers that smells like weed when you first open it.

    Let me ask a couple dudes from my wiffle ball league if they have any to swap. I got invited to go but I had my company holiday party so I couldn't go.

    Woah, I'm late to the party. Didn't know this thread existed. Or maybe I discovered it drunk one night and forgot about it. At any rate here's a couple pictures of my brother's beer wall. Every beer on the wall is something he has personally had - I've had damn near all of them as well. The...

    Okidokeys Smart Lock

    Wonderful idiot replies here. This is a pretty sweet system. They seem pretty reasonably priced too. I wonder if they'll notify you if a lock gets jammed or anything? I know doors can get screwed up over time and you have to do all sorts of finagling to get them to lock.

    Best Anti-Virus options?

    It isn't really that anyone here (I imagine most people on FoH/Rerolled are smarter than the average interwebber) is clicking on every Facebook link or downloading random torrents off of Pirate Bay or something. I doubt viruses are big deal for any of us here - I can only think of getting a...

    Best Anti-Virus options?

    Ineffective could be a misnomer but really at the end of the day what do you want from an anti-virus? To prevent viruses (viri? virus'?) from infecting your computer. MSE/Windows Defender is simple, it uses VERY little resources which is a major plus but it is definitely towards the bottom of...

    What do you mean you used it to create an ISO for Windows 8? What key did you ask for? 8.1 or 8? Pro or Standard? Edit: NM just saw your edit. There's really no point in going with Windows 8 since you're going to upgrade to 8.1 anyways.

    Good! You'll be happier in the long run. The SSD was a wise choice as well. Now you just gotta snag a decent GPU and that'll be a solid build.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but that MOBO you linked has a different socket (FM2+) than the 6300 (AM3+).

    That is a solid build. You will notice very little difference between PCIe 2.0 and PCIe 3.0 (sometimes 2.0 you actually see a gain). The GPU will work in the 2.0 slot. See this article for reference:HARDOCP - Introduction - PCI Express 2.0 vs 3.0 GPU Gaming Performance Review TLDR: You're...

    Can't believe I'm going to say this but I agree. If you're going to get a SSD you really cannot go wrong with Samsung (840 Pro for max speed, EVO for value) or Crucial (M500 again for value). Both companies make a damn good SSD product.

    Ugh, yeah that is pretty much exactly what I was thinking. Cutler could easily end up throwing for 4-5 TD's but Wilson torched Arizona earlier in the year and they're depleted a little bit lately. Fuck. I'm in my championship too and I haven't really second guessed myself this much all year.

    The difference is he has an Ivy Bridge chip. Most people can OC a 2600k (hell even an idiot like you did) that high because the IHS is soldered onto the cores. Ivy Bridge (and Haswell) don't have their IHS soldered on - they're glued quite shittily with shitty paste under near them. A lot of...

    I neg'd you because what you posted was fucking moronic and wrong. While I agree running Prime95 and other tests for at least 24 hours constitutes a stable overclock it is pretty clear joeboo isn't one of those fucktards that runs a test for an hour and says LOLSTABLE OVERCLOCK. You're also...

    I love W8.1 but this is a stupid comment. If you have a 4.5 OC on your computer which is running Windows 7 and you can run all the stress tests (Prime, Furmark, etc) without fail then of course it is stable... just because upgrading to Windows 8/8.1 fucks something up doesn't mean the OC...

    Is your motherboard's BIOS fully up-to-date? You seem like the type of guy who'd make sure it is but thought I'd ask anyways. That seems really strange that it won't OC as well.

    Just make sure to chose "Custom Install" instead of Express or Upgrade or whatever the other option is. It allows you to chose which drive it installs to and you can format/partition that drive and any other you have. Also, who the fuck uses disks to install Windows these days? If you have...
