    Help me waste my bonus check and buy stuff I don't need!

    I'm in one of those horrible want-to-spend moods because I got a decent bonus but I can't decide what the hell to buy from my computer. Give me ideas please, or tell me I'm a dumbass and that I can't really get anything else. Here's what I have right now. CPU: 2500k RAM: 8GB of whatever's...

    2x 16:9 and 1x 16:10 monitors in eyefinity = stretchy and ugly. Please help with this

    I don't believe I can, it's a Samsung SyncMaster 2433 and I've read that it isn't an option

    2x 16:9 and 1x 16:10 monitors in eyefinity = stretchy and ugly. Please help with this

    Here's the situation: I have two 23" LG monitors both running at 1920x1080 [16:9] and a Samsung 24" Monitor running at 1920x1200 [16:10] in the middle of the two. I've got Eyefinity up and running just fine but the issue I'm having is forcing the center monitor to run at 1920x1080 with the...

    Upgrade from 2500k to 2600k?

    It's $40 for both duties and shipping, likely because it's from the US to Canada

    Upgrade from 2500k to 2600k?

    Hyper 212+ Orientation

    Works perfectly fine. It's no Arctic Silver 5, but for 4.5 GHz it's plenty good enough. I idle around 35 celcius with that same cooler on the 2500k using the stock paste.

    Sandy Bridge adopters -- post your new build.

    I don't get why so many people are springing for the 2600k, there can't be that many video editors out there.

    Sandy Bridge adopters -- post your new build.

    Oh right. I couldn't figure out what it is, I was missing this GPU - HIS Radeon HD 6950 2GB - $279

    Sandy Bridge adopters -- post your new build.

    I think I did fairly well, just ordered this all to replace my e8400/HD4890/4 GB DDR2/Sonata III setup. Constructive criticism welcome, I was going to go i7-2600k but since I'm using it for strictly games it didn't seem worth the $100 or so extra Case - Coolermaster HAF 922 - $89 CPU/Mobo -...
