This idiot? Not exactly neutral reporting, are we? :) Not saying I agree or don't.

Those look like MonoPrice rebrands with inflated specs. Like I said, anyone have any good tips for something like the MonoPrice I linked but a bit more oomph / more $$?

Okay, let me reclarify -- decent, as in, better than others in the price range, and enough volume to fill a room. The MonoPrice here (http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=108&cp_id=10823&cs_id=1082301&p_id=8594&seq=1&format=2) look pretty good, but I'm willing to pay more for a...

Not two speakers and a subwoofer (all together or just the speakers), small/light, battery power would be a plus. That Sony one looks a bit garish and I'm also not a fan of Sony products. Have you tried it, is it particularly good?

I'm looking for sub-$100 portable speakers, hopefully with decent bass. Must have a standard input (not Apple-only), USB charging and/or Bluetooth are nice but not needed. Been searching around but speakers are one of those things that's better to ask opinions, since specs don't help much...

As long as it's a good brand PSU and not a no-name utter shit PSU.

Bookshelf speakers are a great option. I'm loving my Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 ($100-$150) though. There simply isn't a comparable 2.1 set under $300 or so. Room-shaking bass, volume and bass knobs, headphone and mic input on the right speaker. It's just simply excellent. Look it up, they've...

Find a used GTX 460. May be a bit over $50, but still. That will get you acceptable performance even in DX11 titles for a non-enthusiast.

Diablo has very badly implemented Vsync, even with NVIDIA's turned to Adaptive. I would use D3DOverrider, it fixed my drops to 20fps(!) on my 680.

To me this sounds like a perfect case for Kepler then. Kepler has a super-simple scheduler and is designed around this, so that sounds to me like that logic was put elsewhere. Or maybe I'm wrong. Good chance there too.

Team OCAHOLIC benchmarked a GTX 680, 670, and double 680s, and then made performance projections of GK110 based on specs from the Tesla G20 whitepaper. The results? Slightly better than SLI 680s. Now, of course, these are projections. But this chip probably will become the GTX 780 next year...

Precision X. Afterburner won't let me overvolt as much, NVIDIA Inspector won't let me set a custom fan curve.

Typo, they meant GK104. My guess is that GK110 will arrive as the GTX 780 in Fall at the earliest, more likely Spring. There's just no reason for them to release this early, even if they can. They're better off trying for better GK104 yields and going GK110 when AMD starts to get their...

Keep in mind that we _still_ have no low-end Keplers (GTX 670 hopefully very soon). If AMD stays competitive on the low-end, they can still have a profitable year -- not to mention the lack of 680s for sale.

I would agree that a GeForce GK110 will be Fall at the earliest. This looks like a Tesla card for GPGPU purposes (as in high-end business stuff), to be followed by a GeForce gaming version much later.
