Hmm.
So a desiccant like silica is considered a molecular sieve.

Molecular sieve........... Sounds scary.

I don't wanna **** with it. hahaha

Yea but,

Silica Gel Desiccants - Gram Size 10, 5 gallon pail S-3906 - Uline


thats what it is. Most badass name in the world for something so dumb.

 

[ungawd]

I keep a 1lb pouch of desiccant in the trunk of my car. Just throw it in the oven for an hour at 105c every few months.

As for it being a molecular sieve; sorta I guess, just no control of what goes through it. When I think molecular sieve cellulose comes to mind.

Overheating computer at work?

Ain't nobody got time for that!!!!!!!!!



I think either my video card or chipset is overheating. I even undid my overclock temporarily and it didn't help. I let the computer cool down for 5 minutes and have a fan blowing on the video card (passive heatsink) and the chipset and it seems fine, even overclocked.


I donno, not the best thing to deal with on my first day back from vacation.

Rabbit infestation? It might be time to break out the shop vac. I've had that happen several times using nvidia cards. Poor heatsink design coupled with a restrictive tiny fan with shroud. I prefer them shroudless as it eliminates spots where dust bunnies and junk accumulates.

Nope my machines are spotless.

I want to say the card I have in this box is an ATI, but it has a huge heatsink with no fan. So far since I have a small fan blowing on the vid card and chipset the machine has been 100% stable. Its currently 83F in here so it kinda stinks for a so called air conditioned office.

I'm considering putting one of my 1600rpm 120mm fans fro home in this case as I'm sure that will solve the issue.

I can't stop singing this song. I know, it's not my usual post, but I like to sing and the only thing that suits my voice is country.. I like that the Annies aren't pop-crap country.



My previous favorite Annies song:

 

[ChrisJ]

Ugh country.

:sadbanana:


I can't stand country music and at a past job a co worker and close friend used to think it was funny to shut my music off and put country on.
I would go to use the john and next thing you know I'd hear "I was in a Kenworth haulin logs, she took my money and she stole my stapler".


Then I'd be stuck listening to that until I could hurry up and get out of the bathroom to turn it off.

Lol. I like select songs that go with my voice. I've tried to sing other stuff, but there aren't many.

I can only handle it for so long.. Which usually means zoning out on long car trips because that's hubby's music of choice.

ATI cards are notorious for heat issues. A large fan is probably your cheapest solution.

Like this?

I've never had problems in the past, though most of them were TOL cards and often I just ripped the stock cooler off before even installing the card as I always wanted quiet.

Obviously at work none of that was necessary so I ended up with a cheap card with a stock passive cooler.

It always seems like you're never amused by my comments.

I am actually. But you also had a good point. Today's cars are not the boats of years past.

 

[AdorableKaren]

I always thought my mom's lexus was a boat. I had to take my driver's exam in it. Needless to say I failed lmao
