I mean 95f room temperature. If a room with a computer raises in temperature, the temp for the computer raises as well. If I turn my air conditioning off my temps raise about 15c. Outside of the stock CPU cooler not being able to handle the combination of sucking, external heat and a hot Haswell, I can't think of anything else that would cause this.

That's a pretty big enclosure, so that's good, assuming it isn't in a desk cabinet or something. Temperature fluctuations in the area the computer is in will have an effect on heat, but if it's below 95f you should be good. Assuming you didn't do anything on the 2nd CPU cooler install like not tighten the retention screws all the way, you would probably be good with an aftermarket cooler.

1. How big is your enclosure? How many fans?
   
2. What are your power settings/What is your power plan? If its "High Performance" or "Maximum Performance" your CPU will go balls to the wall at any load you give it. Use Resource Monitor to find what's causing your CPU to spike.
   
3. Is the room the computer is in air conditioned?

You might be able to get away with just an aftermarket CPU cooler or a more conservative power plan but some Haswells tend to run hot.

If you want the names of players on top of player health when spectating you need to add:

"ItemFontAttribSmallv2"
{
     "1"
     {
            "name"		"Verdana"
            "tall"		"8"
            "antialias" "1"
            "weight"	"500"
      }
}
"SpectatorVerySmall"
{
    "1"
    {
        "name"		"Verdana"
        "tall"		"7"
        "weight"	"400"
        "additive"	"0"
        "antialias" "1"
    }
}

somewhere in resource/ClientScheme.res.

You should really really get genuine Windows but running "slmgr /rearm" in an elevated command prompt and rebooting will reset the 30 day timer for Windows activation. There is a limited number of times you can do this.

Personally, I'd go for the 1920x1080. Those monitors are both extremely similar (brightness, dynamic contrast ratio, refresh rate) except the native resolutions. However, the dot pitch for the 1920x1080 one is higher (102.4 pi/in vs. 91.8 pi/in), which usually results in sharper image. Both are 16:9 aspect ratio, so if you don't like 1920x1080 on the 21.5" you could always do 1600x900, but please note that there will always be distortion on an LCD display when you use a non-native resolution.

Good luck!

Are you using DPI scaling with Windows 8? If not, how does Windows 7 handle 4k?

I like the DPI scaling in Windows 8 but some applications force disable it.

The native DPI stepping for G400 is 400/800/1800/3600. Native DPI stepping for G400s is 400/800/2000/4000.

i just wanna get kerbal and not pay my left nut for it

the safest place to shoot someone is the arm or leg. every gunshot wound is destructive because of the permanent cavity it creates, but almost every gunshot wound with a respectable caliber will be effective at disabling someone due to hydrostatic shock (the hydraulic pressure that immediately affects organs in the body due to an external projectile. most of the time this disrupts brain function temporarily, which would temporarily disable a person).

i don't think the cop needed to shoot. i need to read the court documents because i don't remember hearing if his car was running or not, but if you're in your car and a situation could become dangerous, it's very easy to create distance between you and the situation. if the cop had more room he could've handled it safely, but he panicked.

I had that problem with my router, its DOCSIS 3.0 so the cable company (Comcast) gets to put any firmware it wants on it. Went away after a while, but was very annoying nonetheless.

However, when it would start disconnecting me hourly, a router reboot (unplug for 30 seconds) usually fixed it temporarily.

No problem, glad to be of use.
