I installed a new motherboard and then did a clean install of windows 10 from a usb stick. It showed as not activated, so I connected online with Microsoft customer support. He did ask for my windows 7 key, remotely connected to my pc, and activated it.

Nerds. Several websites stated that Intel had problems with manufacturing these CPU's do to 14nm manufacturing process. They just don't have the volume to jam retail and distribution in the US right now. Channel partners in distribution and builders like a Dell, HP, Falcon Northwest, IbuyPower...

I have the same and completely agree with your statement.

I have been playing all day, it's quite a bit of fun in game mode Frontier Defense. So many people bashing the game, not sure why.

I have a Deathadder and a Logitech G9x and rotate them every so often. I like both but have to say that the Deathadder tracks slightly better and is more comfortable in my hand.

$700 for this is complete nonsense. A fool and his money, whatever, waiting for Maxwell.

YAWN. When do the 20nm parts drop?.

Exactly my plan as well, but I feel like the R9 290 is going to drop at $499.

That's the big question now. It looks like 290x ~ $600, so if the 290 come in $100 less there is a big hole in $300 - $500 range. If they have a rabbit, that would be a good one to pull out and price it at $400, GTX 770 becomes a "don't care" and AMD could own that space for a long time.

It's just Bizarre. Very dumb group of managers.

When will the GTX 770 be available at Best Buy?

That's exactly what I would have purchased. Great move.

This story is rambling and for the most part, senseless.

I don't believe it is unless you are running FEA software or video editing/ multi media tasks, etc.
