    Dell P2715Q / P2415Q (3840x2160p, IPS, sRGB)

    Yeah, I should report you to the authorities for stealing! :D (That's an insane price!) I got a call yesterday from Dell customer service to confirm my shipping address (and ask whether it was a business or residence) and when I asked what they could tell me about the ship date, they paused...

    Dell P2715Q / P2415Q (3840x2160p, IPS, sRGB)

    You can get it for less in Canada... see my note above. However, we don't get the benefits of the coupons the Americans have. :( But lets be honest... even at $799, it's a freakin steal! As for HDMI 2.0... that's totally unnecessary. DP1.2 is what you need, and what most GPUs output these...

    Dell P2715Q / P2415Q (3840x2160p, IPS, sRGB)

    I started out by chatting with Dell customer support off the Dell.ca website and then I said I wanted a better corporate discount, they took my number and I got a call back from an account rep who did up a quote.

    Dell P2715Q / P2415Q (3840x2160p, IPS, sRGB)

    I just placed an order for a pair of the P2715Q for my Mac Pro... no 20% off coupon in Canada, but I was able to negotiate a price of $699 CAD (or the same as the USD price). ETA is Dec. 8th on my order.

    Dell P2715Q / P2415Q (3840x2160p, IPS, sRGB)

    Dell P2715Q / P2415Q (3840x2160p, IPS, sRGB)

    Have you seen anything speculating on the Dell 27" panel origins? From what I've read the BenQ and Asus will be using an AUO panel while the Dell may be using an LG, but I'm not sure how anyone can know that with certainty at this point. However specs on the Dell 27" have it with a brightness...

    Dell P2715Q / P2415Q (3840x2160p, IPS, sRGB)

    I'm curious... Are you guys interested in the 27 or the 24? Why? What resolutions will you likely run these at? I'm assuming native is out of the question at this pixel density.

    Asus P5N7A-VM: Just got it and I love it.

    I have this board and I'm pleased with the relative ease with which the HDMI video/audio output just worked. However, I'm having a real problem adding a RAID array to this board. I set it up with a single drive to boot the OS and now want to add a RAID 0 array for video storage on the black...

    Nehalem Clocks and Turbo Mode

    I posted a quick editorial on the possibility of SLI on Nehalem if you are interested... http://www.nehalemnews.com/

    This is not likely to be the case... read this counter-point article to the FUD rumor.

    Nehalem Clocks and Turbo Mode

    The way it reads is that the CPU will overclock one or two cores for single threaded apps when it can shutdown one or two cores in order to keep the TDP within spec. So, yes, it will "turbo" itself up under certain circumstances. What the other guy was pointing out is that Intel will have...

    Nehalem Clocks and Turbo Mode

    BTW, I wrote a follow-up article on that report that lower-end Nehalems might not allow Overclocking... As usual, I think that Fud was spreading FUD

    Nehalem Clocks and Turbo Mode

    Thanks... that's exactly the same concept as the Nehalem Turbo Mode I wrote about above. Now the question is, how well does it work in practise? ;)

    Hmm... I'll have to look into that. Thanks.
