    Jet - ASUS GTX 1080 Turbo $581 shipped

    With the Gigabyte 1070 for $399 from Newegg and Amazon, I decided to order from Jet with the SHOP10 coupon. Would have been $380 after tax (NJ). But the order was canceled (It did show out of stock on newegg after the cancelation). Although it was in stock at the time of order. I wonder if they...

    MSI x99a Gaming 7 - ~ $95 -- Jet.com

    Yea, by the time I went to the site, they had taken down the rebate, although I believe it was before 15 days after. Still a great deal.

    MSI x99a Gaming 7 - ~ $95 -- Jet.com

    Mine was by HPP Enterprises as well. That is one of the things with ordering from Newegg and Buydig, I don't mind paying tax, since with free shipping I usually have the item a day later. Here, I paid the tax, since Jet.com is in Jersey, but then get it from across the country. Still a good...

    Price to performance sweet spot

    I think I am going to order the EVGA G2 750w on promo at Newegg. Currently have a Rosewill Capstone 550m, conflicting reports if it is enough power.

    Price to performance sweet spot

    Yes, I tried with 14.12 and 14.9. They can boot to desktop, but then the screen goes black. With the ones I have now, I had the computer running for 8+ hours yesterday, but then turned my monitor off to let Elder Scrolls Online run the patch overnight. I woke up and when I turned the screen...

    Price to performance sweet spot

    I just bought an open box asus r9 290 directcu ii from newegg for $229 - $25 Amex Sync promotion. Not the best price, but a decent upgrade from my 6850. Having some of the reported Black screen problems though. Stable with no drivers installed. Mostly stable with the 13.251 drivers on the...

    SB Overclocking results?

    I am running 4.5Ghz @ 1.355 volts. I was able to boot into windows at 4.8Ghz @ 1.375 volts and 5.0Ghz @ 1.415 volts. All passed intel burn test maximum at 30 runs, but the higher would not pass Prime 95 Blend for more than 2 hours. I wanted this rig to try folding so I wanted to be able to...

    Intel X25-V = $76.49

    I have not benchmarked this drive other than a restart program. The computer boots down and restarts in around 45 seconds, which seems good to me, although I only have a laptop with a western digital caviar black to compare it to (which was a big upgrade from the Seagate which came with it). I...

    Intel Chipset Design Error!!!

    This is disappointing, but I just moved my hard drives (40gb intel ssd and 1tb samsung f3) to the SATA III inputs. I have my optical drive on SATA II, but I do not need to use it much (I was planning on building this computer mostly to play games bought on Steam and for ripping my cds to my...
