    To all the Q6600 out there.

    I've got a Q6600 @ 3.2. I'm going to hold out for one more generation. I'm not doing that much gaming these days anyways, at least not til Diablo 3 comes out...

    Anything better than the 13" macbook air ($1300 config)?

    Yeah, MBA doesn't have IPS, but the screen is quite nice for a laptop. The viewing angles are better than average, and it has an honest to god AR coating. Very little reflection issues.

    Anything better than the 13" macbook air ($1300 config)?

    I was in the same boat as you. Waiting on the ultrabooks, considering the thinkpad X1 and X220. After the refresh of the MBA, I went and checked them out. The hardware is top notch, and I couldn't say no. Lion is better than the previous versions of OS X I've used, so I haven't nuked it and...

    The good old Q6600

    Still running my Q6600 g0. My poor old 8800gtx needs to go though... Not much time to game these days now that I'm married with a kid. Had neither of those when I got the Q6600!

    Thanks for the laugh. Needed that for the mid-night work.

    Trade my G9x for your G500?

    Wow, ok, I got the G500. Now this is the mouse that I was expecting! A worthy successor to my Razer, which I'm taking to the office. There's no way you could accidentally press the middle mouse button on this, unless you're an oaf, but it's still very reasonable. I like the side buttons, and...

    Trade my G9x for your G500?

    I'm coming from a Razer Diamondback to the G9x, and soon to the G500. I've actually never had a problem with the Razer, and it's performed admirably, but I just have the upgrade itch. Would love to have more usable side buttons.

    Trade my G9x for your G500?

    Alright, I had to break out the kitchen scale to compare. The left and right buttons take less than 2 ounces to trigger. By comparison, the middle mouse button takes over 1 lb to trigger. That's way too much for a button that gets used this often. Accidentally pressing it while scrolling...

    Trade my G9x for your G500?

    I thought I might have better luck in here. It's a moot point though. Logitech is letting me swap my G9x for the G500. I'm okay with eating the loss. Why would you design a mouse button this hard to press? Spend one day trying to use tabbed browsing, and you'll never make this mistake.

    Trade my G9x for your G500?

    I'm really disappointed in how hard it is to push down the middle mouse button. It's killing me on the G9x. Anyone wanna trade? Warren

    LG L246W

    I took my FHD2400 back to BB. Couldn't stand the poor viewing angles. Even at optimal ergonomics, certain colors were horribly distorted, like in "28 weeks after". I also had noticeable bleeding around the edges. The LG was gone in all stores in the DC area, but they agreed to sell me the...

    Gateway FHD2400

    I got my FHD2400 earlier this week. I love it for gaming and most web browsing. Can't stand it in dark scenes. I watched 28 weeks last night, and while the medium and lighter scenes were ok, the dark scenes were unbearable. The lack of viewing angle ruins the top, and the edges bleed enough...

    LG L246W

    Does anyone know what's going on with the supply of these @ BB? Are they coming out with a new revision, or did BB just run out of stock during xmas? I've got $150 of gift certs @ BB and I'd like to pick up a 24" lcd. I think the LG is the top runner right now, with the Gateway in second...

    scythe infinity in a centurion 5 case?

    I put an Infinity into my Centurion 5 with a DS3. Works great, just ditch the duct.

    DS3 Rev 3.3

    What BIOS version are you running? This might be true with F10. I'm on F9. Warren

    DS3 Rev 3.3

    Regarding the powering off after exiting BIOS, I found that it only happened when I pushed the CPU too much while overclocking. If it was at a stable speed, it would not do this. The next time that happens, look at your speed in Windows. You'll probably notice that it's been dropped back to...

    DS3 Rev 3.3

    I forget what my idle temps are. I think they're higher than what most people list on here, but I'm running at 3.24 GHz in a room that is nearly 24 C. The load temp, according to Core Temp with 2 Orthos running is 63 or thereabouts. Warren

    best case for around $65

    The Centurion 5 fits the 8800GTX with no mods, and I even put 2 3.5" drives near where the 8800GTX sits. Not sure if this is true with the 534. Warren

    DS3, P5B, or P5N budget overclocker?

    I just built a new system, and I used DS3 + E4300. Good combo which went right to 3240 with minimal problems. See sig. Warren

    Finished my new PC, 1.8 -> 3.2 easy

    Good luck going higher. I started having strange issues coming up. DS3 cold boot, etc. If I could get it booted up, I was stable in Orthos til about 3375 (375 * 9), but I couldn't cold boot. Not worth the headache, so I just went with 3240. Warren

    Finished my new PC, 1.8 -> 3.2 easy

    Picked up an E4300 based system, stats in sig. Thanks to this forum, it was a pretty easy overclock. The only problems I ran into were when I attempted to go to bios version F10. That was problematic so I went back to F9. I've been OC'ing all my pc's since my old 8088. Crystal overclock...
