    System has been slightly upgraded, the EVGA 2060 Gaming Ultra KO has been swapped out for a PNY RTX 4070 Triple Fan OC edition, now I need a new monitor since the current one could only do 144Hz through the DVI connection.

    The best PC case I ever owned was a...

    My first high end aluminum front panel case was this Xaser III basically the same chassis, but what a case to have in 2004 (thing was a beast to haul around though, and survived a 5K mile ocean voyage with no problems). Also used to build my nephew his first computer in 2011

    Frys going out of Business

    After working at Fry's Service desk for my first job when I moved here way back in 2006, I found out from the quarterly meetings that the Cafe was the money maker of the stores, used to make really good tuna melts and club sandwiches...I'll miss those.

    Going to finally build a mostly new system with the 2700, the Aorus used in this benchmark review (because I have never had a problem with Gigabyte), some new RAM from G.Skill, and the 4g 970 GTX from my old i7 920 system from 2008....Along with most of the hard drives from that as well.

    Consumer Reports: Don't Buy a Microsoft Surface Laptop or Tablet

    We had pro 3's failing all the time, pro 4's aren't much better so our company is done with them especially as the warranty was only a year compared to the 3 years we got with regular equipment.

    MSI 4G 970 for $300...Unless you count the total cost of the two 260 GTX cards when the system parts were originally purchased, then $440.
