QUOTE(yehlai @ Jan 12 2007, 04:55 PM) Maybe u should know tht others run pc 24/7 for folding or torrent.. sure i-Cute cannot 'tahan' rite. hi dudei have been on this scheme for 4 years, entering the 5th year dont tell me torrent or folding mine is a webhost and mostly gaming yes, i do torrenting too ( when bandwith demands are low) and the only days it gets rest is - hardware upgrade tnb power down (electric trip) or reboot for critical upgrade and erm, Windows is not the only OS i run on this thing btw , i OC too and it hasnt given problems mah so i dun think its bad at all hope u understand what im trying 2 say 5 years is generally a nice number so dun condemn it yet it might fail now, later , tomolo , watever but 5 years on nonstop action , i think thats quite generous This post has been edited by Jcsy: Jan 15 2007, 12:25 PM |

QUOTE(sniper69 @ Feb 26 2007, 06:11 PM) you must know, there's a lot different in iCute PSU and Enermax, or watsoever PSU it is... been there, done that, and probably went beyondFYI, i got old system with 200W capalang PSU, which been running almost 9 years (once help my higher end system stay in temporary state though), but it's very risky ok, sooner or later, it'll burn your critical component such as HDD, Graphic Card, Motherboard... i dare you (Jcsy), burn 4.7GB of data, mutilple run of Prime/Orthos/SP2004, encode/decode video files, run Real Time HDR Lightning, surf site - LY.Net not exactly the example u have given, but a stress test would be sufficient prime 95 and do my daily routines, for weeks ( forgot tat it was actually ON) ive played Counter strike on 1 core , compress a RAR on 1 core, and convert an .avi to .rmvb on 2 cores yes, it lagged but not that bad ram was 0, cpu was 100% and erm, all this was in overclocked mode.. btw i havent mentioned i do this for fun i enjoy watching PC performance n stretching it abit perhaps its my OS which is featherweight i wouldnt even want 2 mention my taskbar layer and taskbar notification area they are sometimes a pain 2 any normal computer user and i do use abnormal applications has yet 2 fail me , iCute as long as it didnt give me data lost or crash my pc or spoil my hardware, im ok with it This post has been edited by Jcsy: Feb 28 2007, 10:35 AM |

probably the third time this has been mentioned
the amount of ppl buying iCute is incredibly high thus higher rate for failure |

QUOTE(Matrix @ Mar 1 2007, 10:07 AM) I think this is all a bit confusing. There's the cheap Icute that cost < RM50 and there's the high-end icute that cost RM150 and above, just like rest of the branded PSU. my post was saying that ::So people who complained about, ICUTE, pls state whether yours is the cheap/OEM icute or the high-end one. So far, my icute(380W silent PSU - RM190..now maybe RM150) works pretty fine and it's on 24/7 (well, not really 24/7 since my HTPC went to sleep most of the time), but it was working like 18 hours a day for about 1 month previously and it's working fine. It's what u pay is what u get. 10000 buy icute ( because cheap , comes in all the lowyats clone casing) probably 1% failure rate, thus 100 die , 100 vote into the poll 1000 buy enermax (probably more expensive, so less ppl buy ) also put 1% failure rate , thus 10 die, 10 vote this poll its just an example... THE HIGHER THE USAGE / PURCHASE RATE, the more chances ppl are gonna complain about it (im applying the SAME FAILURE RATE) we get different numbers if ppl never buy b4 that brand, like only 1 in the world , then the vote will be NIL or 1 depends on the price, popularity and amounts sold my iCute is RM 100, came with casing, wat do u think This post has been edited by Jcsy: Mar 1 2007, 05:05 PM |
