He's a really nice guy too, if you have specific questions about any of them, and it doesn't explain it very well, he will answer his email. I saw him on TechTv a couple months ago too.

 

[outside looking in]

Yeah, I saw him on TechTV as well. I went crazy at first and shut pretty much all of them down, to the highest level there was. Needless to say my machine ceased to function normally and I had to repair the damage.

Good overall system boost though.
