    Pioneer Elite 50” Plasma at $2299.95 beyond Hot

    yes, this sucks but u can't do anything about it. not everyone makes an attorney's salary and the majority of ppl don't make anything close to that, if even half that. believe me, i'm not against you, i'm just stating the facts. my last stereo was $5k, not multi-channel av, it was equipped...

    The Sears Flat Panel TV Deal Thread

    i love how my thread turned into a flame war instead of ppl getting good prices lol. if u do your research the FIRST thing you'll know about looking at tv's in any store is that they are not calibrated and will look nothing like they will once they are set up in your home, if u know how to do a...

    Western Digital 750GB SATA/300 Hard Drive ~ $189 @ FRY'S B & M

    a raptor would smoke this drive. there's a reason a raptor is the same price but it has 5x less space. you can't compare a huge 7200rpm drive to a small 150gig 10k rpm drive.

    E6850 overclock round 1

    i hit 3.6 stable at stock voltage of 1.35. even a tad higher and i had to increase the voltage. i went up to 3.78 at 1.45vcore stable which is consistent with other overclocker reports and i have no doubt i would be able to hit 4 but due to the increased power draw and heat i'm just running at...

    Asus P5K-E - Which ports are JMB363 and which are ICH9R?

    u know that thing they threw in the box called the manual, it's on page 2-27 and 2-28. if u installed the jmicron and ich9r software correctly it'll detect on whichever connector u plug the hard drives and dvd drive in on, u just have to choose which slot u put them in as master or slave.

    frys' price was always $209 since it came out. i really doubt frys b&m will ever lower the price of the e6750 and all of the new chips but they will probably have a MB bundle in the future for less than msrp on both the chip and MB. if u want to wait for a chip/mb combo then wait, if u...

    Tough Decision, E6850 or E6600....

    i haven't run an overclock yet but my stock e6850 is running <35C on both cores fully loaded in orthos and the max temp, according to intel, is 72C. i figure i should be able able to get a pretty good overclock, and this is on air.

    n00b needs help with overclock - asus p5k-e

    yea the ram is pc6400. so it doesn't really matter then if i run it at 5-5-5-15 or 4-4-4-12? the guide i was reading said it would be easier to diagnose problems with the overclock if i ran it at 5-5-5-15 cus the ram wouldn't be the problem, if one came up.

    Intel Q6600 Retail - G0 Stepping $275-$290 (preorder)

    read the serial number code. the old one is something like SL9UM and the new one is something like SLACR. so make sure to get the slacker version, not the slum.
