I can update the video card if needed, but that LG is a bit out of my price range. I am trying to stay under $1K, obv the cheaper the better.

I am currently running 3 x Dell 2007 IPS (1600x1200dpi) which I really like, but been looking to upgrade the middle monitor to 30 in or larger, and may keep one or two of my 2007 on the side. This is for work purpose, so mostly for spreadsheets, programming, some image manipulation. Text...

What 4K TV do you use if you don't mind sharing? I am going to Best Buy this weekend to look at a few models. I hope they have Sony XBR43X800E on display - seems to have pretty good review. I wonder if Best Buy would let me hook up my laptop real quick so I can see how text look like on that TV...

I been trying to decide getting one of these 4K TV vs Dell UltraSharp U3017 (2560x1600). I can get U3017 for ~$600. I am using this mostly for programming and office work, so picture/text quality is more important than input lag. Any advice/thoughts? I have older Dell 30 inch in my other...

I got mine. I like having 3 of these in landscape, but now tempted to have 5 in portrait lol...Dell has some more of these monitors if anyone still interested. A full disclosure here, I do not work for Dell :)

Correct, this is a refurb - not new. Having said that, I also had bought 2 2007 in the past 2 yrs, and they are still working fine. Screen were perfect with no dead pixel. This would be my 3rd 2007 to complete my triple monitor setup :) This deal is not for everyone. I use these for mainly...

Hi all, Just want to share that I just bought Dell UltraSharp 2007FP 20-inch Flat Panel Monitor for $86.64, use coupon WINTER25DELL until 1/29. This is a refurb of older model, but it has 1600x1200 dpi. I called Dell and make sure the model I ordered has IPS panel. Link...

Here is Google Voice rate for comparison. I have used Voice myself since they first came out. I used to have Vonage. Honestly I cant tell the quality difference. I use Google Voice for calling to Asia and local call in US. https://www.google.com/voice/rates#I

Been waiting for VC to buy, thanks!

Dell Optiplex or Dell Latitude with docking station and external monitor. Laptop is nice to have in business environment, can carry it around for meetings and such...

Dell Latitude - never have problems with warranty...

Anyone who ordered got a perfect screen in term of dead pixel?

I think this is a WD green drive inside the enclosure. Thinking about buying and taking out the drive since it seems to be cheaper than buying bare drive.

Well, pretty much like I said... I am bored + have some parts laying around. I love tinkering with stuffs - its therapeutic for me. Seriously though, we have internet base home business, so this can be a spare workstation, so it will have its purpose. The spare now is an old Dell dual core PC...

So I am kinda bored and have spare change. I have an empty case, hard drives, video card and PSU. Was looking around the forum last night, and stumble on multiprocessing thread. I can spare about $400 or so to build a dual proc workstation. This sounds cool to own :) While this is just for spare...

Sent you a PM. Interested in the optiplex.

Yes it is EVGA registered the card for me.... nice to know it still carry the same warranty. I looked around, and did not find that. Thanks guys... I sleep better now :D

I was cleaning the my case yesterday, and notice that my GTX 460 has TR part no - I never pay attention to this before. I received this card from RMA last yr - my previous card has a lifetime warranty. So I guess I lose my lifetime warranty if I RMA ? .

Bump for you, good luck with the sale - from another software engineer :)

There is no AHCI setting for this particular mobo. I ended up using Acronis to create an image of the boot drive, then transfer to SSD. So far it works....

I finally got a new Kingston SSD to upgrade my old computer from regular HD (raptor) to SSD. System consist of Abit IP35E, Q6600, GTX 460, 8GB RAM. During install of Win7 x64, it will stop after the first reboot, and then nothing. I have left it on for a few hr, and it does not make any...

I have a Dell 2407 that has been dead for a year or so. Just one day it does not turn on. There is nothing displayed on the monitor. It is not the power button that is broken (I checked this), but I am not sure what is the cause. Its been sitting in a closet. I am cleaning the house, and wonder...

Thanks Danny for a quick reply! Really appreciate this, now hoping that MicroCenter will cooperate and have some stuffs in stocks :)

Not sure if I should open a new thread or just continue this. I have a trip coming up this weekend that will pass MicroCenter in Cincinnati. Hearing those deals at MicroCenter, I am going to stop by and see what I can find. 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web...

Just FYI. It seems that PCIe 1x is a better solution - if your board has one.

Thanks limitedaccess! I almost bought an old PCI Quadro. I figure NVIDIA and AMD would not work, but Geforce and Quadro should work since they are produced from same company :) Yes, my 460 is already output to 2 monitors.

So I have decided to hold off upgrading the entire PC until later in the year, but I still like to have three monitors now if possible. The monitors are two Dell 2007 and Dell 3007 for PLP setup. Currently I have a 460 GTX card. If I were to buy a PCI card like this 430GT ...

I think I am going to wait until Ivy Bridge. Thanks Danny!

Sorry... game I play is Left 4 Dead, Call of Duty series. Light gaming: I mean to say that I do not need any serious pic quality while gaming. I did not realize there is a new Intel CPU coming up...thank you! I got to read on those and decide what to do...

My last build was a Q6600 which still run like a champ. Since then I have not really keep a close eye on the latest greatest - new baby kinda keeps me busy :) I tried to read up, and catch up, but thought I ask the experts here before building a new PC. 1) What will you be doing with this...

IMHO Q6600 is pretty cheap, but still performs well paired with GTX260.

I think thats about how much I paid for mine from Dell refurb. I am hoping there will be another deal like this coming up...

Just received my two 2007. Screens and bezel are perfect. Bezel looks new. One monitor has some minor scratches in the back. One has 28.4K hr, the other has 39.4K hr. Both are confirmed IPS. Grand total including shipping is $180.50 for dual 1200x1600 dpi. IMHO, best deal ever.... Now seriously...

Funny that you and I did the same thing. I had 3 monitors in my cart, then I called DFS. He said 2 of them are IPS, one is not. So I bought the IPS ones. I really hope the CS really knows what he is talking about, and give me the correct monitors.

I just ordered 2 2007 from DFS today. Let me know how it turns out for you...

Bump from an owner of 3007 :)

I have an old P4 3.2Ghz (dont laugh), 4GB RAM, that need a new video card. It is a back-up PC, being used mainly for surfing, speadsheets and sometime playing movie on one monitor while the other monitor is being used for work. No gaming whatsoever. The idea is to find the cheapest card that...

Corsair quality is no 1

Starhawk: Thanks for the bags!
