Interested in the card. Sent you a PM.

I just bought one of those kits for a computer I'm building for a friend as a christmas gift and should be installing it this weekend. I have a full custom loop and was planning on setting up one for him piece by piece, but it was far less expensive buying the kit, even with the same parts. I...

As I understand it, a gap between heatsink/radiator and fan is desirable due to the design of most fans as it gives more uniform airflow through all of the fins rather than mostly around the edges. The large rotor in the middle of the fan can cause uneven performance (even if it's not really...

I always buy reference cards due to my stubborn desire to watercool everything I can. Not a lot of reason to pay the additional cost simply to swap them out. Performance-wise, there is generally not a lot of difference, I have a reference XFX 290X that will run 1300/1500. The reference cooler...

lol'd for real at that one. Good show.

Price drop! To the top!

That's what I thought! It worried me because everything I have read (as many articles as I could find, including the [H]) struggled getting to 1200mhz. I simply didn't believe it. I confirmed with GPU-Z, Sapphire Trixx, MSI Afterburner, Unigine Valley and Heaven, along with Furmark. It's at...

When I built my first water loop about eighteen months ago, I picked up some Indigo Extreme to go with it as I figured, meh, even if I muck it up, $20 isn't going to make me cry if it doesn't work. The installation process was terrifying. I understand conceptually that damaging the CPU...

Hey everyone. I retired my lovely but struggling 6970 and moved up to a 290x. I fitted an Aquacomputer block with active backplate on it so the downsides were somewhat mitigated. In my overclocking adventures, I found that this card is able to clock like mad. However, it seems almost too...

Bought a Samsung 840 Evo drive, received a copy of Far Cry 4. Sadly I had already picked up a copy before ordering the drive. Looking for $30. Thanks!

I have a G700s and it's my favorite so far. There is a Razer Mamba in the closet and it's good as well, but I didn't like the soft-touch surface as it made my hand sweaty and uncomfortable. If the issue with the G602 is that it is not rechargeable, pick up some Eneloops and bam, it is now...

I am currently using the Logitech G700s and I a very fond of it. It fits my hand quite well and performance is very good. The extra buttons are nice to have I guess, but they don't really do anything for me. Battery life is pretty good, but on the plus side it comes with an Eneloop and those...
