I just ordered the 70 P Vizio from Best Buy online with the 10% off coupon code and delivery is scheduled for this Saturday unless...

    Vizio P series (Sept 24th) + GTX 970/980

    If the cables you have dont say 18gbps then they may not pass the 4k 60hz signal. Im no expert but just saying.

    Best 970 for quiet & cool system.

    Probably the Gigabyte G1 gaming according to this review. http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/gigabyte-geforce-gtx-970-g1-gaming-review,1.html The MSI gaming oc is worth taking a look at as well.

    Sapphire HD 7970 OC Edition Video Card Review @ [H]

    Thanks for reviewing this card, I was strongly considering buying this card after doing research yesterday on which 7970 OC's the best, and it seems like this is the 7970 to get. I was going to wait it out for the 680 4GB card but at the rate the 680's stock is at retailers, who knows when I'll...

    Best HDD's (cost vs perf) for raid 0

    I bought x4 WD Blacks last month for a total of 256.46. At the time I was looking to spend around 250.00 and I was either looking for SSD or the old spinners like I bought that got around 400MB/sec read and writes and had good I/O numbers as well. The only other thing I could find at the time...

    FYI if your looking at getting a Q9550 from Newegg

Ive been thinking about buying one but the cheapest Ive seen from newegg is 200 after the hardocp coupon if newegg has it at 210 which its now back to 220. I would get one from microcenter but the nearest one is almost 5 hours...

    Spin Down One Drive in Windows 7?

    Have you tried the "turn off hard disk after.." setting in power options>advanced settings menu? The only other thing I can think of atm is if the drive is external hooked up via usb you can eject it and turn it off that way.
