I've had a QNIX 2710 for a little over a month and have an issue. Starting today, when I try to turn my monitor on after being off for a while, it will flash the screen for a fraction of a second then turn off. I have been able to make it work by unplugging the PSU from the socket and waiting a...

I just bought up a LG 34UM95 3440x1440 21:9 monitor and it should be here next week. After seeing the amazing reviews surfacing online, it just seemed like the perfect screen for me.
As you can see from my signature, it's time for a GPU upgrade. I mostly play LoL currently and I may even be...
I recently moved into an apartment and decided to forgo the conventional LCD/Plasma for a under coffee table mounted short throw projector (BenQ w1080st). It's absolutely amazing for movies, which is the majority of my non-PC screen time.
The only game I'm really playing at the moment is...
Update: Review from LinusTechTips: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KnrxNfxRK_4 (spoiler: best monitor ever)
As release seems to be imminent on these 34" UltraWide QHD panels, I thought we should have a place to discuss these upcoming displays. It is my great hope that these come in at a low...
Does anyone here have one? I'm trying to find a great laptop to replace my desktop as I am moving.
The only game I currently play on my computer is League of Legends. All other gaming will be on a ps4 or xbox one in the future.
Does anyone know how this laptop (with 8gb of ram) handles...

Fantastic reviews. I'm in for one to replace my five year old Logitech G9.
I've used a 37" Westinghouse at about 3.5ft away for seven years now. I love gaming and watching movies on it and don't mind regular browsing/productivity. I've tried higher resolution, but smaller, monitors (2560x1600, 2560x1440), and while I loved the extra real estate, I hated that I couldn't...
I'll be in the market for a new laptop very soon and there really only seems to be three options:
1. Regular Laptop w/decent GPU (ex: Lenovo Y580 best value)
2. Ultrabook/Macbook
3. Large desktop replacement (15" to 17" w/powerful GPU)
I already have a desktop so I want something very...
I've never been very happy with this unit or WHS v1. My network speeds are horrendous (even after lots of troubleshooting) and I usually kept most important media on my computer's 1TB drive. I have about 6TB of data spread over five 3.5" HDs and am looking for a new solution.

I'm upgrading from a core2duo system to a 2500k and z77 board. Anyone have any experience with this board? I would like to get a mATX board because I don't need all the expansion and may want to downsize the case from a Antec 900...
I have been running this e6600 overclocked to 3.3GHz since 2007 and slowly upgraded it piecemeal but now that Ivy Bridge was a dud it's time to finish it. I really don't see a compelling reason to go with anything other than a 2500K from a bang for the buck perspective.
My main decision is if...

$10 off from other eTailers.
You can get them cheaper on eBay, but if you want it brand new from an eTailer, this is the best option.
Just a heads up to everyone that was planning on taking advantage of this offer. It expires on 10/31 (at least for me).
You can get $25 off any item (not including tax/shipping) for a first time user of Bill Me Later. It's possible they may extend it or reintroduce this after 10/31.

Remember, this may be the last model, but it supports eSATA port multiplier while the new model doesn't. This means you can plug in a 4 port JBOD enclosure and add another 4 drives to it via eSATA.
I do not want to make this a mouse/kb vs gamepad conversation -- in my eyes the mouse/kb will be forever superior to the gamepad. Others may have different opinions, but that is not what this thread of is aboutl. *********

Not exactly a hot deal because the prices are MSRP + shipping (and tax where applicable), but they are in stock and ready for shipping.
