That price is just ridiculous. Even worse, the controller is reported there to be $250, the base/docking station $100, and the keyboard (one thing razor's made for years) won't be ready for months, or included. Also, I wonder how much it weighs.

Alright, I tested with a few games. The temps were a bit lower (and much lower, depending on the game). All games are on 1920x1200, and highest in game settings. (all were playable, though skyrim slowed once or twice briefly). Playing Dota 2: 60-75% usage and 77C (32% fan) BFBC2: 99% usage...

I recently put together a new computer to replace my aging q66, and the only thing I'm continuing to use right now is my 5850. However, after putting everything together and looking more closely, I'm seeing a bit of a problem. For reference, this is the card I have. I've had it since late...

What sort of office work is this? Is it just running microsoft word/excel/general office applications, emails/web browsers, or more intensive with things like video or image editing? Is there any kind of cpu intensive work? Do you need a discrete graphics card, or will onboard graphics do for...

Thanks Danny. I found the article to be quite interesting. I'll be keeping stock for now, though may introduce a side fan in the near future (and possibly top exhaust, who knows, I might mess around with it, but I now have a better idea anyhow). Also, this is news to me that power usage from...

Well the MSI Z77A-GD55 looks pretty decent from what I can tell. Anyone know much about ASUS P8Z77-V LE? It seems the ASUS has more power phases, though I don't really know what difference that will make. For fans, I would prefer quieter fans. I may put that off, get the case and use it as it...

Lets get these questions out of the way first. 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Largely web browsing and gaming. 2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included? Roughly $800. I dont expect any lower, cannot go above $900. 3)...

You know, I wouldnt. I looked at the 650hx and 750hx, and decided I liked the 750 based on it being a bit more efficient, but I'm 100% certain I would be fine with a 650HX, which after rebate and discount, comes to $73.50. I havnt looked into the 650hx at all for prices/sales, but at half the...

I'm looking at getting a 750HX for an ivy bridge build in .. well, April, when Ivy Bridge comes out. I've basically decided on getting a 750HX and corsair 400R, and looking for good deals on these items between now and then because they shouldn't depreciate or be replaced like some things might...

Hey guys, I'm currently looking for a good mid-tower case to suit my next build. To keep this a little simple since I dont know the complete specs of my coming build, I'll be using a full atx motherboard, planning on getting a i5 3570k, quite possibly a thermalright true spirit 120. Along with...

Well, I've had my current machine together and running for about 3 years now and I think it's time to upgrade. For a point of reference, I currently have a [email protected], evga nvidia 680i mobo, 2x2gb ddr2, ati radeon 5850, antec 900 case, corsair 650tx psu, and uh... 2x wd 640gb AAKS, 2x wd 1tb...

Hello, as the title says, I'm looking for a new chair. I am currently unemployed so my options are limited to $200 at most. I've had my current chair for somewhere around 2 years and it's been nice I guess for what it was but it's really time for a new one. it was $60 or something at the...

"By protecting our products from theft, and therefore our revenue margins, there are so many things we can afford. Sheer profit is one of them, absolutely. I am not going to deny that. It is far from the last of them though, and many other benefit you as a customer. We can keep our prices lower...

I'm not trying to make you sound like an idiot, but in all those steps, you didn't mention turning on the PS3. Assuming you did, I would look at that adapter, and make sure it works. I would also check and make sure the HDMI cable's good, and finally make sure the DP port on the monitor...

I'm using DVI for the samsung, DP for the HP. I guess I can try moving the samsung to the other DVI. (I'll try that before posting this) Okay, there appears to be no change by doing that. If I were to use DVI instead of DP I guess that could do it.

I just bought a new monitor (HP ZR24w, love it, replacing/dual with my old Samsung SM226WB) and have found it generally wonderful now having 2 monitors. I've got things set up fine for the most part now, just one little issue. I set the HP ZR24w to be my main display under Win7 CP. When I...

I am interested in the investigation, I find it interesting that the phone is still working, I'm wondering what actually happened.

The biggest downside to the PX2370 is quite obviously that it's a TN panel. It sounds as though that is what you are looking for though if you dont know what that means I recommend researching it a bit. There is a thread stickied in this forum giving a bit of information on the different panel...

Favorite shooter games huh, hard for me to pin down, but at least you have me thinking about it.

I just bought one from ebay, $368 after shipping. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280591926181&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT It says he accepts returns, it seems, so if I need to I will. I would rather go through HP and see what they will do in case of a stuck/dead pixel than...

First off I'll note I made a thread I think a week ago that was never replied to, so I'm going to try to be a little more broad this time. I'm looking to buy a new monitor in the next couple weeks. This will replace my current Samsung SyncMaster 226BW. I want it to be 24", 1920x1200, with a...

Okay, I want to buy a new monitor sometime within the next 2-3 weeks. Current monitor: Samsung SyncMaster 226BW Uses: Watching movies, gaming typically, along with other computer related activities. Wants: better viewing angles, with hopefully none to minimal input lag for gaming...

I once ate 2 quarts of ice cream for dinner. Filling up on ice cream is not too good, I felt a little sick afterwords. /Story

I think first it would be good to know, what about your laptop are you unsatisfied with? Specs of said laptop? This information can be helpful seeing as we know not if a SSD will actually help you.

Right now I think videocards are progressing fine, it's games that need progressing (at least until I get into multidisplay gaming, but who knows when I'll have the money for that) I think more innovation in cooling systems for them would be good, I think people have covered this pretty well...

I think I'm sold on this monitor, just spent a while reading up reviews and comparisons, and this seems quite nice. Is there any place in particular someone can recommend I look to buy one? I've found locations, but not sure of what would be best or any current or up coming sales.

I have no problems with UPS or FEDEX here usually. I've had a couple non attempts when they were supposed to, but most of the time it's fine. I know the usual UPS driver by now, and he's quite nice. He'll even buzz the door to the apartment twice if I dont respond to the first one.

I have yet to own a galaxy card, maybe this thread can change that.

Hah. Thank you Sir.

Okay, as I fill up the bays in my computer, I think about this more, and wonder what to do beyond that. I know there are a few solutions available, and I want to know what would probably be best for me. What I will be using most of the storage for is movies, tv shows, and games. It isnt...

I think upon thinking about it further I will instead go for a stand up mic/whatever you wanna call it, desktop mic. They aren't too expensive (or rather they dont have to be), means I can continue using my headphones, and simplifies things greatly given my current situation/setup.

Interesting, this makes me think I might want to get something else entirely. the setup I currently have doesn't allow me a lot of options the way I see it. I have an antec 900 case under my desk, if I have to I can plug a headset into a usb or b the mic and sound in on the front of the case...

An amp for a headset? What.. I'm sorry, I'm not too familiar with this idea. What are we talking about for this, can I see an example? A little clarification would be nice.

Alright, I've decided to go with a Headset. Now, the process of finding which one would be right for me. I prefer Circumaural over just about anything else. I would like to periodically travel with it, with my laptop. This, on top of wanting to keep them for several years, means I need them...

Alright, I dont know what I want exactly lets hope you guys can help me figure it out. Right now I have a set of Sony MDR V6 Studio headphones that I really like. With that, I've for a while been using a Zalman Zm-Mic1 clip on microphone, and I like the idea but I dont like the mic. It's a...

Alright thanks guys, looks like G500 it is!

I've had this G5 for a couple years, but due to damage to the cord while traveling one time, it dies when the cord gets touched or pulled the wrong way, and it's been getting worse lately so I've decided to replace it. I'm wondering what might be best for me though. I really like the G5, but...

I have a Q6600 currently at 2.7.. I had it at 3.2 for a long time but toned it down a bit after repeated crashing while (I posted a thread but never really got any help.. ). Still, I think right now I'm better off waiting 8-12 months, and going all new. I would like an upgrade but...

Well, maybe they shouldn't use SLI with ATI drivers.

No, no, that is not what I mean. That obviously hasn't gotten us anywhere, aside from ruining a select few's lives. Realistically, there probably isn't any way to stop piracy. Lowering prices will only get so far as well. Consider music, I doubt we'll really get any lower than $1 per song...
