    27" 2560x1440 Recommendations needed

    I would give the PA279Q one more chance. I've had mine for 2 months now and I don't have any of the issues you experienced. I share it between my PC and MacBook Pro. Never experienced those halo effects you described on Mavericks. 10 dead pixels out of the box? You got a bad one. Give it another...

    ASUS PB278Q 27-Inch WQHD LED-lit PLS Professional Graphics Monitor

    I love it also. I was forced to sell off my rig last week so the monitor is the last to go now.

    ASUS PB278Q 27-Inch WQHD LED-lit PLS Professional Graphics Monitor

    Hey folks, Just listed my beautiful ASUS PLS monitor on eBay. Having to downgrade to an iMac because of space sucks. As good as new, no dead pixels, mint condition because of my OCD in computer hardware. :cool...

    Making the Switch

    Thanks everyone. I'm heading to the Apple store at 3:30 to play around with everything. A friend of mine told me not to buy office 365 for the Mac, instead go with iWorks? Does Pages do MLA and APA formats? Headers? ECT.

    Making the Switch

    Thanks cnealjr for the reply. I will try to make up my mind by 4:00 pm on whether to head to the Apple store or not. The iMac I want will run about $2600-$2800. I'm hoping to get at least $1500 from my rig if I can find a buyer. I will then be in the negative $1100-$1300. :( The negative equity...

    Making the Switch

    Good point about building a low cost PC UnkownSouljer. The reason I built my gaming system in November, is because of visiting the Case Modding section here on these forums. LOL! Now that its sitting here, I'm not using it to its full potential. I am also passed the stage of tinkering with...

    Making the Switch

    Hey friends, Recently finished grad school at good ole UCLA. 34 years old now but I finished. I am no longer a Hard core gamer like I was back in the early 2000's. The only game I play now is the Sims 3, yes Sims 3. I am thinking about selling off my current PC that I built last November and...

    Anyone have a ASUS pa248q (24 Inch IPS) and using windows 8?

    I am having the same problem with the big brother to your monitor. The PB278Q. No matter what, Windows 8 refuses to recognize the cab file from the Asus website.

    Cleaning up some coax runs

    Yes, your TX is a bit high. On our system in Southern California we like to keep our customers between 48-52 TX. Who's your provider? Is your modem on the first splitter from the drop? Like mentioned above, don't use radio shack junk. Most providers will give free splitters by just going into...

    Need a Program to Backup my Games

    I have a complete format and install of Windows 7 coming up, and the biggest time waster is installing games. So I thought just installing from an ISO would be the quickest way to get games back on. Installing all my games can take almost 2-3 hours. Oh the horror!

    Need a Program to Backup my Games

    Folks, I am one of those gamers who still likes to buy physical games. I do not like to install programs like origin and steam on my computer just to run a game. So, I am looking for a way to make and exact copy of the DVD's into an ISO. That way when I need to install a game, I can just...
