    FCC: Not So Fast AT&T

    What about me? The term on my contract ended and I didn't get a new phone through them, so I am just paying for the sim month to month. I have the $10 unlimited data plan since I had a "dumb" phone when I got it and am currently using it with a smart phone. Can they force me to pay the $25 or...

    Can I replace this MBP screen (pics included)?

    Detailed instructions: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Repair/Installing-MacBook-Pro-15-Inch-Core-2-Duo-Models-A1226-and-A1260-LCD-Panel/1287/1 I have replaced an LCD on that same exact model, and a PowerBook G4. It's not difficult if you know what you are doing and have the right tools. Just...

    is this a legit evga card?

    If you have a low wattage soldering iron and the caps are soldered to very large traces that it looks like some of them are, the copper will suck the heat away before the solder can melt. Try a higher wattage soldering iron.

    Dell U2410 for $489 + Tax /w Free Shipping @ Dell Home

    I have two revision A01s manufactured in June 2010 and neither have the green/pink problem. Great monitors. I payed about $520 for each so this is a great deal. Once you have one of these you won't ever go back to those shitty TN panels.

    Will PCIe 1.0 x8 limit an HD6870?

    Yeah I figured I would be CPU bound for sure, but at 1920x1200 not so badly. I would have rebuilt already, but it wasn't pressing and I figured I would wait for Sandy Bridge and/or Bulldozer. A new GPU will tide me over until then.

    Will PCIe 1.0 x8 limit an HD6870?

    It's time for an upgrade, and the HD6870 looks like the perfect card for my setup, except for clearance problems with parts on my motherboard, specifically the sata ports and the chipset cooler. I have a DFI Lanparty NF4 SLI-D with a Sapphire 3850 512MB card driving 2 Dell U2410s during...
