    Apple Announces The iPad Pro

    This was one of the most disappointing events Apple has had in a long time. There were no new ideas and there was a lot of copying and catching up. I wonder how Jobs would feel if he were alive. He'd probably clean house and start over.

    Google Fiber Is Coming to Atlanta, Charlotte, Nashville and Raleigh-Durham

    We desperately need something better than Windstream here in north Georgia because no other providers have service where I live. The maximum speed (not for all) is only 24mbps, which I finally got after waiting for 8 years.

    Horizontal screen tearing with Youtube videos on Firefox

    Hi all, I've been having some weird issues with horizontal tearing when I watch Youtube videos on Firefox. This issue is not consistent but when it happens it's very noticeable. The strange thing is that I don't have any issues with Youtube videos on Chrome. I don't know if this is a...

    Logitech G910 Mechanical Keyboard

    I pulled out a few keycaps on the G910+ and the structure is completely different than a MX keycap.

    Logitech G910 Mechanical Keyboard

    I tried the G910+ at BB and I didn't like it. The keys felt slightly sticky and lack the crispness of MX key actions. It's really a shame because it offers features that other keyboards don't.

    Thinking about returning 34UM95 to Newegg. Worried about RMA

    I do see some horizontal tearing in Youtube videos. At first I thought it was the video itself, but then I compared to the same video on my phone and there was no tearing on that. So I concluded the monitor is causing the horizontal tears sometimes. This issue is by no means a major one, but...

    Thinking about returning 34UM95 to Newegg. Worried about RMA

    Thanks for the tip! I haven't seen any horizontal tears yet. Update: With Adaptive vertical sync, I see a lot of horizontal tear in Arma 3.

    Thinking about returning 34UM95 to Newegg. Worried about RMA

    Hi guys, I've had the 34UM95 for about a month now and I'm thinking about returning it to Newegg. I actually love the monitor but the horizontal tearing ingame and in Windows, though not very bad, is starting to bother me. This monitor is an excellent productivity tool but it's probably not the...

    Unable to use 980 GTX in PCIE lane 1 of XPOWER X99

    Hello, I'm building a new system and when installing my gigabyte 980 gtx with backplate, as realized that the RAM brackets are blocking to the VGA due to the thickness of the backplate. Therefore I had to use PCIE 2. I tried removing the backplate, but there are screws from both...

    34" 21:9 UltraWide Displays (3440x1440) - LG UM95/UM65 & Dell U3415W

    I agree with Neon01. All companies have provisions against people who abuse the system and return too many things. But when a return has a legitimate justification, it should be a simple process provided that the item is packaged like it was received. When you read report after report of...

    34" 21:9 UltraWide Displays (3440x1440) - LG UM95/UM65 & Dell U3415W

    This is totally unacceptable for a etailer as well known as Newegg. What is going on with them? They went from one of the most trustworthy sellers to one that scams customers and breaking returns on purpose. I was gonna buy the components for my new PC from them but I'm getting them from Amazon...

    4k vs. 21:9 1440p

    I got the same deal on the 34UM95 from Newegg and I agree with you. It's not worth spending $500 for the curved version.

    34" 21:9 UltraWide Displays (3440x1440) - LG UM95/UM65 & Dell U3415W

    For those of you who have the 34UM95 with BLB problems, did you return the monitor or kept it? I'm asking because other than the BLB problems, I really like the UM95. If you kept your monitor, how're you dealing with the BLB?

    34" 21:9 UltraWide Displays (3440x1440) - LG UM95/UM65 & Dell U3415W

    I just received the 34UM95 from Newegg and I can clearly see noticeable backlight bleed problems on both lower corners as many of you have reported. Man I really miss my old trusty LG 24in monitor. It looked great, had minimal backlight bleed, and handled everything I threw at it with...

    Thinking about getting Eizo CX271 for work and play. How's the gaming performance?

    My trusty LG 27in broke and I'm now in search of a new monitor I didn't think it'd be this hard! Since I do photo/video editing and I also game, I'd like to get a high quality 27in 1440p monitor w/o glow. This led me to Eizo CX271. I'm confident that this monitor will excel at photo/video...

    Official LG Curved Ultrawide 34UC97 thread

    Hello, My trusty LG 24in monitor died so I'm in need of a new monitor. But I'm torn between this LG (out the flat version) and a gaming monitor (PG278Q). My needs are pretty balanced between productivity and gaming. The LG 21:9 monitors are great for productivity, but do they perform with...

    Dell 27" 5K Monitor (5120x2880)

    34" 21:9 UltraWide Displays (3440x1440) - LG UM95/UM65 & Dell U3415W

    Thanks for the link CHANG3D! I might just pull the trigger on this one. This is slightly off topic, but are monitors considered "Televisions" for Costco? If they are, then the return policy is 90 days. If they're not considered TV's, then the return policy could really be "lifetime".

    PC desk recommendations

    Hi all, I'm looking to replace my 2 crappy $50 plastic tables with a real sturdy desk. Based on what I've read, the Ikea Galant is very popular amongs us geeks but my local Ikea carries a minimum variety of Galant and to get what I want will cost me a small fortune in shipping. Do you all...

    Seeking 27in monitor recommendation for gaming & editing

    The U3415W certainly looks very appealing but I read it has PWM and the fact that it has a curved screen makes me think it's gonna be quite expensive. If it's $1500 or below and has minimal problems, I'll consider it. I'm super excited about the incoming GTX 900 series. It's gonna be a...

    Seeking 27in monitor recommendation for gaming & editing

    You make a good point about not buying monitors from eBay. Getting a monitor from a reputable dealer these days is already kind of a lottery as far as the backlight bleed, uniformity, and stuck/dead pixels that you might get. At least dealers such as Newegg have a good return policy.

    Seeking 27in monitor recommendation for gaming & editing

    My budget can be much higher if need be since I plan to slowly rebuild a new system. I'll most likely get a GTX 780 II now or wait for the new NVIDIA GPU's to come out in a month or two. I think the 34UM95 looks fantastic but I've read a lot of reports about bad backlight bleed and the LG...

    Seeking 27in monitor recommendation for gaming & editing

    Thanks for your advice. I guess it's a good thing that the PG278Q is not available at the moment as it gives me time to look at other options. The 34UM95 looks very interesting but are there any compatibility problems with games and other applications? Do games automatically resize to 16:9...
