Was looking through stores today and having never owned a TN panel at home before, they are just not fun to look at. The handful that had IPS (hell I'll take VA if anyone still makes laptops with them) were basically starting in the $1000 range. I don't need an ultrabook, a touch screen...

Hi guys, it's been a few years since I've had to do anything from the ground up so I feel like I'm a bit out of the loop. My current Phenom II system feels like it's getting kind of long in the tooth and doesn't seem to like the SoCal summer heat at all; now that I have the money from a job...

$209 up front, $30 rebate. Still a ridiculous deal either way you look at it. Dunno if it'll be available online, clicking on the page now just leads to a "no product found" error. http://www.frys.com/ads/page6#AdNavi

So I just bought a pair Infinity Primus P363s on a whim thanks to a Fry's fire sale and this review here: http://www.audioholics.com/reviews/speakers/floorstanding/primus-p363 I have never owned any speakers worth a crap, nor used any receivers, so I'm hoping to get some suggestions here...

http://www.direct2drive.com/Search.aspx?SearchTerm=thq Some of the games aren't actually half off (The $15 dollar games are rounded up to $8 basically) but there you have it. Deal ends Monday at 10AM. Extra promo code HOHOHO for another 20% off may or may not work, YMMV.

I'm in need of a pair of closed headphones for a class that uses digital pianos. I have AD700s at home at the moment but due to their open nature they're not suitable for use in the classroom. Minimal to no sound leakage is a must. Beyond that, I'm looking for comfort first and foremost as these...

I just removed a dying board to replace it, but as I got to unscrewing it, about 8 of the 10 screws were loose but "stuck" yet I managed to lift the board off the case anyway. It turns out I managed to unscrew the standoffs instead at those spots so there's still screws on one side and standoffs...

Old Abit IP35-E is on its last legs, so I'm going to have to replace it soon, by the end of February at the latest. The E2180 still works at stock speeds but seems to be having more issues by the day if I set it back to overclocked speeds I had when I first bought it. Pulling this from the...

Call of Duty World at War - OEM, never used the CD Key. [SOLD] shipped USPS First Class to continental US48. Heat: http://www.heatware.com/eval.php?id=56313 Paypal of any kind or USPS money orders accepted. I generally ship the same day payment arrives/clears unless something funny happens...

To further explain the topic title, the machine (in sig) will randomly just shut off for no reason while it's on, or just "die" while it's off and refuse to power back on at all - no fans spinning, no POST, no nothing, until I perform a CMOS reset. Flipping the PSU switch on and off does nothing...

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125225 I have no idea what mouse it is, don't see it listed on the page anywhere, but it's still a great deal IMO regardless of the mouse.

The card's an Inferno. It was working fine just under 8 hours ago but once I got back home I could barely hear anything from them, even after cranking up wave and main volume to max in Windows. I pulled the headphones and tested with onboard sound, an older X-Fi I still haven't bothered to get...

I want to move on from my X-Fi. So far I've found the following that are within the general budget range: Asus Xonar DX Bluegears b-Enspirer Razer Barracuda AC-1 (on eBay) Tech Report claims the Xonar DX can rival the Prelude in quality but I have a bit of trouble swallowing that, and it...

Delete - was gone during the maintenance issues and reappeared for some reason

Short story is I'm getting tired of having to jump around my desk just to unplug my headphones from my PC to use them with anything else I own (consoles, portables, etc). I don't want to spend much though just for convenience; thinking of just getting a stereo extension cable from Radio Shack or...

http://www.svc.com/fan-acces1.html Shipping is based on where you are relative to them (San Jose, CA or thereabouts) but since Newegg went back to regular price this seems to be the better deal.

Current monitor is Dell 2007WFP S-IPS Rev A02. I'm using this image as a reference frame for the black crush effect: http://sr-388.net/images/patterns/Brightness.jpg The image is supposed to be the numbers 1-4 in various shades of gray, but I can't see any of the numbers under normal...

http://www.clubit.com/product_detail.cfm?itemno=A4394887 Two rebates, one for $25 and one for $5, valid thru tomorrow. Should match up well for those who got the $28 AR deal from Fry's for the same set if you want 4GB.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820146567 Supposedly these overclock nearly as well as the higher binned versions, so it's pretty blazing hot. $30 rebate, and limit two sets for those who want 4GB :D Ends 11/27.

I have an X-Fi I/O Drive that I just installed. It uses a floppy power connector, and long story short, I wasn't paying attention when connecting said power connector. I turned on the system, heard a couple short fizzles before the system powered up, and the drive wasn't working. I opened up the...

I'm still trying to weigh out what options I have and unfortunately power consumption is an issue to me (old house, multiple rooms wired onto a single 15A circuit and whatnot). I've gone through some manuals for receivers and their numbers are outrageous: 380W or so, and one Onkyo receiver even...

To be short, I've pretty much went my entire audio life using nothing but $10 generic Sony/other earbuds, and I'd like to move on up to something better for once. I'm planning on using whatever I get for PC gaming, console gaming (RCA to stereo adapters or whatever's necessary), music, and...

Heat: http://www.heatware.com/eval.php?id=56313 Rules 1: Payment: USPS Money Order or Paypal (non-CC preferred) 2: Shipping will done via USPS. I can only ship on weekdays. Prices include shipping to continental US. 3: I will consider offers, but low-balling is not appreciated and will likely...

Specs should be in sig if needed. This would be the 4th day since the build's completion, where it was working fine beforehand. In fact it was working earlier today. I'm trying to isolate the problem and hoping it's not just a dead mobo. I don't believe the power supply is dead, as turning...

http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&sku=320-4688 EDIT: Deal's kind of over, now $339. Ended July 26th. YMMV with extra coupons, I doubt they work on sale prices. An additional $8 for CA residents for electronic waste fee, I don't know if this exists for...

I understand these two can hardly be considered in the same league, so this is really more of a cost vs benefit/usefulness question I suppose. First off, my room is pretty small; I would guess 8x11 feet give or take one each way. Secondly, I am literally coming off of onboard video + $15 earbuds...

Does anyone have any info/experience with this model? It's amazingly cheap for a 24" (~450 shipped); flatpanels.dk lists it as an PVA panel, tftcentral.co.uk lists it as S-PVA, and widescreengamingforum has it as a P-MVA. I literally have no way of knowing which site is correct ((unless it's a...
