The R5 just came up in my research and it looks to be perfect. (Basically just a revision on the R4). So I think that's where I'm leaning.

I'm looking for an ATX tower (or mid-tower perhaps). Things I want: - Dust filters by default - Quiet - Understated, no LEDs or Windows or any of that. - At least 6x HDD bays, preferably more Budget is WIDE open; my current case (HAF-932) I've had since 2009 so I really keep these a while...

Just got my U3014 last night. Tested today; no issues at all with the banding problem that's been mentioned a few times. No testing on overdrive or anything; dont game - but stellar for workstation stuff. Very very pleased.

Took some effort; but got mine. Success.

That's my setup for this. Workstation + 27" + 2007FP in portrait. Laptop in docking station. Synergy running between the two. Works wonderfully.

I do development on my box at home. Most of it enterprise software that interacts with active directory heavily. I also have a colocated VM box for production items. But when I need to quickly spin up a series of VMs to mirror a specific domain structure, the last thing I want to do is push...

You do understand these are 8gb DIMMS and some people want to get past the 16gb capacity on 4 slots? For a while 32gb in an 4x 8gb dimm configuration has been sitting at about $450. This is a marked drop over that. But thanks for your insight :)

God damn. We're almost to my pricepoint of 350 for 32gb.. May pull the trigger anyways. Thanks.

P8Z68-V here, UEFI. I do not have a BIOS screen on boot; I've got a 2007FP in portrait mode next to I use for BIOS.

I will HEAVILY endorse the M-Audio AV30 / AV40 offerings. They both are excellent for music, and bestbuy has the AV30s on sale right now for $70. Theyre VERY good for music. Not amazing for games, but not bad either. Seriously, studio monitors or bookshelf speakers are going to sound many fold...

This is a very good heatsink. I've got it on a 2500k clocked at 4.5 and never top 70C. Its surely not the BEST, but its quiet and works well for the price.

Yes and yes and ive tried others. Did more troubleshooting, DVI port is DOA. RMA time. Monitor is great via DP though

I just got mine. Pleased and upset simultaneously. Pleased: Great picture, no dead pixels, backlight even. Upset: Displayport works perfect. DVI-D from the GTX 260 = no video. Have installed/reinstalled drivers a million times with no luck. Windows sees the monitor, identifies it, verified...

I think the HP ZR2740w is a good middleground for the 27" http://www.costcentral.com/proddetail/HP_ZR2740w/XW476A8ABA/11450766/ Bit more than $500, but can be had a good bit cheaper than the U2711 too. 2560x1440, IPS panel, LED backlight, and a bit less lag than the U2711 all in one. Less...

Nowhere near what some of you guys are doing: 2x 2008 R2 Domain Controllers 1x SQL Server 2008 1x IIS dedicated sandbox 1x 2008 sandbox for development purposes 1x App server (for mirroring special third party apps I need to test against) Thats it right now. Got a pair of Xeon E5220 processors...
