    Note owners (any gen), how often do you really use the S-Pen?

    I have a Note 2 and use the S-Pen along with S-Note on a daily basis at work. It's great for jotting down small notes and reminders. It's also useful while doing daily equipment inspections out in the field to jot down any malfunctioning equipment or to jot down any details when getting a...

    AMAZON - Metro Vacuum ED500 DataVac 500-Watt 0.75-HP Electric Duster 120v $47.99 + FS

    I only found out that this existed after I saw the original thread on slick deals hours after the deal had expired :( I'll wait for the next time it goes on sale.

    Logitech Hardware on Sale @ Amazon

    FYI seems like Amazon jacked up the prices on some, if not most, of the items... the deals are no longer as [H]ot as before. Case in point, check out the 3 links from the OP that has the price they used to be and compare to what they are now. Saw someone say something about a G13 for $39 and...

    5% off video card at newegg

    Just a tip... The promo code DOES NOT work with any video cards that come with a game(s) bundled in, open box items, and any other items that come with free gifts. I think the reason that it works with those 2 particular R290s is because you have to register on their respective...

    LG 27EA83-D 2560x1440 IPS Wide Gamut 10-bit 99Hz Overclockable LCD $699 @ Frys.com

    Does anyone else think that for as nice as this monitor may (or may not) be that the warranty needs to be better for the money that you're paying for it? Regular retail for this thing is between $800-$850 and you're only getting 1 year of warranty on it. Yea, you could probably increase the...

    Acer 27in B6 B276HUL YMIIDPRZ 2560x1440

    I came across this Acer monitor http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824009553 during my search for an affordable NON-Korean 27in 2560x1440 monitor. After some preliminary google searches I have come up empty in regards to finding any sort of reviews for this monitor. The only...

    Warm? Sapphire AMD Radeon HD7970 GHz Edition 3GB Video Card w/ 3 Games $329.99 AR

    That deal wasn't going to last for very long once it hit front page on Slickdeals. I heard Amazon price matched it at some point, but the deal is already dead on there as well.

    Newegg BF Deals Live!

    Last year they did have BF deals on 6950s and even a deal for a 5990. The year before that they had deals on 5870s, of course they were likely trying to move stock since the 6950/6970 "released" a few weeks after BF 2010. So based on their previous behavior from 2 different past Black Fridays...

    Newegg BF Deals Live!

    Welp like the title said, it looks like Newegg is laying a massive rotten egg when it comes to video card sales this BF. After going through their secret 24-hour sale e-mail that I received a little bit ago there wasn't a single deal on a 7950/7970/gtx670/gtx680. It looks like the video...

    Newegg BF Deals Live!

    One things you guys have to remember is that Newegg usually releases better deals for the actual Black Friday. As I recall for the past 2 to 3 years they've done this exact same thing, they've released the turd "deals" early on to hook the suckers into buying stock that they're desperately...

    GHZ question

    Do you guys foresee the current retail prices of the 7970s and 7950s being lowered once the 7970 GEs become available in retail channels?

    Need A Mouse for Big Hands

    First off, I'll apologize for necroing a semi old thread. As a guy that can comfortably palm a basketball, it's difficult to find a mouse that's big enough and comfortable enough for my hand. I'm currently using a logitech G500 and the mouse started to die on me so I decided to look for...

    [H]otter Than Expected? XFX Double D 7950 $304 AC AR w/FS @Newegg

    OP here... Well I looked into the the [H]ardOcp review of gtx 670/680 performance versus hd 7950/7970 performance and decided to pass on this. The review compared out of the box performance and overclocking performance. OCed 670 still beats OCed 7950. Out of the door price for the 7950 is $324...

    [H]otter Than Expected? XFX Double D 7950 $304 AC AR w/FS @Newegg

    This is pretty tempting for me, just as I was ready to jump in to the green camp and get a gigabyte gtx 670 this comes along at almost $100 cheaper. Heck if you can sell all 3 games for a total of $30-$40 on ebay you'd be making out like a bandit. Buuut, I've really been wanting to switch to...

    [H]otter Than Expected? XFX Double D 7950 $304 AC AR w/FS @Newegg

    Lets try and keep this one "in-house" for a bit. I looked on Slickdeals and saw that someone had posted the deal when they thought it was $340 AC AR /w FS and it didn't generate much interest on there.
