    EVGA 780i or wait for FTW version?

    Well, I think I'm just going to get the 780i, as the solid caps don't matter too much with the lifetime warranty. And the waterblock does nothing for me :).

    Help with finding gaming mobo

    If you really want SLI, I recommend an EVGA 780i. I'm also building a new gaming computer atm, and for SLI that board looks to be one of the best. All of the 780i boards are virtually the same, only, the EVGA board also comes with a lifetime warranty. At the same time, there are known issues...

    EVGA 780i or wait for FTW version?

    I still say "ftw" all the time.. :( So ya, I guess I'm leaning towards the 780i board. Hell, who cares if its lifespan is shorter than if it had solid caps? Lifetime warranty ftw. See what I did there?

    EVGA 780i or wait for FTW version?

    Supposedly the 780i FTW has an ETA of sometime in May. Was April/May, but the April half only has a few days left! And don't be laying hate on EVGA now ;) Supposedly the fan on the northbridge of the 750i is a bit loud, and its second PCIe slot for a gpu is only x8 instead of x16. I've...

    Issue with HP w2207

    So I just bought two of these 22" monitors from Tigerdirect, and one of them works perfectly, but the other is being a bit weird. The image coming from the DVI port is normal, but the image from the VGA port creates very thin horizontal white lines across the screen when I drag windows. Also...

    EVGA 780i or wait for FTW version?

    Has anyone heard of a probable price of the EVGA 780i FTW? Also, do you think the solid state caps and the better cooling will be reason enough to wait for the board to come out, and to pay the extra money for it? Thanks.

    8800GT SLI vs 8800GTS (G92) SLI

    Hmm, thanks for the replies :D. I just remembered this card as well.. EVGA 8800 GT 512mb that comes with the Akimbo heatsink and external vent (dual slot cooler). It's factory overclocked to 720mhz core and 2000mhz memory. But then it's the same price as the 8800GTS... lol Soo, factory...

    8800GT SLI vs 8800GTS (G92) SLI

    So I've been debating between the two for weeks, looked at benchmarks, etc. and still can't decide! My system specs: Mobo: EVGA 780i CPU: Intel E8400 RAM: OCZ 4gb (2x2gb) DDR2 6400 PSU: Anted True Power Trio 650Watt Monitor: HP w2207 22" 1680x1050 native resolution. Case: Antec...

    NEC LCD LCD2690WUXI vs DEL 3008, what to take?

    How much of a difference are H-IPS panels from other TN panels? Is it really $700 worth?

    Samsung 2493HM or Planar: PX2411W

    If it means anything, I'm going to be getting the Samsung 2493HM in a few weeks :)

    NEC LCD LCD2690WUXI vs DEL 3008, what to take?

    Am I missing something but why would you pay $1200 for a 25.5"?? And with 15ms you'll get ghosting! If you really want the 25.5" dimensions why not a Westinghouse? $450AR on newegg. NEC LCD LCD2690WUXI Also has 5ms :). Personally I'd go with a 24" samsung, but thats just me.
