I just ordered one of these from Ebay for $82 and I'll be picking up a 1-year warranty from squaretrade for $11. Reasons to buy this are;
-It is the last smart phone for verizon to not require a data plan and comes with WiFi so it doesn't really need the data plan if you have plenty WiFi...
Fantastic game! I beat it last week and it was amazing. I never ever jump or get scared under any circumstances. No movie, video game, or person has been able to scare me... except for Dead Space. The music and environment was superb and shooting limbs off is surprisingly extremely...
What they did with that HAF 932 desktop looks amazing..

Hmm. Looks great, but I'd rather wait until they come with a similar Full Tower one. It doesn't look like you can fit a radiator up top. I don't have a watercooling system, but I expect to and don't want to restrict my options down the line.
That's just about in line with what I would expect. Overclock the 920 and throw in another GPU and you're going to draw a lot more power, though. Especially those GTX cards... they draw a LOT of power compared to other cards.
I know my 550vx is just barely enough for my set up, detailed...
Yes, it's dumb to have the radiator putting all the hot air into the case but that's how Corsair wanted it and it reduces the CPU temp more, even if it raises everything else.
It's already released.

I've had my eye on it.. waiting for some reviews.
I do a ton of video encoding with x264 for my popcorn hour and it loads all four of my cores, even overclocked to 3.6ghz. And it also works great with hyperthreading. I don't doubt the wonderful x264 devs will also optimize it for the 6 core CPUs. That's why I wanted it.
Intel does indeed...
If you want to save a little money the Asus P6T is pretty good. It's what I have. When I was researching the sub-$300 mobos a few weeks ago before buying this one, pretty much all of them had some sort of problem, but the P6T's only quirk was that it couldn't return from Sleep... until you...
Argh. I was planning on waiting until this came out to upgrade to i7 but then I read news that it wasn't going to come out until next year so I said F' it and bought a 920...
Oh well. At least I got it at MC when it was $199.

As I said to sprout2287,
I just created a heatware account so I don't have any feedback yet. It's the same name though, Patrick Bateman.
But if anyone is interested in anything, I will certainly assist in precautions you want to make to ensure your safety. I have a verified paypal...

Asus P5K-E. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131225
I bought it for $140. I haven't had any problems with it. Pretty good board imo.
$70 shipped
ConUS and Paypal only, please.
Likewise. I was all ready to buy an HAF 932, but after seeing this Obsidian.. I'm going to have to hold off on that. Now, I'm waiting impatiently for them to release these two. On top of that though, I have a 550vx at the moment and am looking into upgrading to a 750hx.
That makes three...
Ok so I want to sell some of the stuff in my sig but am unsure how to ship some of the parts. I don't have the boxes for any anymore.
For the motherboard, would putting it in an antistatic bag, wrapping it in bubble wrap, and placing it in a box of packing peanuts be sufficient?
I'm...
Just got back from the Paterson store. They're still selling them for 199 and still have plenty D0s left. I'd call them before going though, just in case.
I came out with a D0, Asus P6T, and OCZ gold 6gb 1600mhz RAM for $550 after their 3.5% tax. Not bad. Beats newegg by a long shot.
ZZF has the best hard drive packaging imo. The hdd I just got from them was tightly encased in this plastic shell, tightly encased in this foam shell, packed into a box of packing peanuts.
This drive has good reviews but, according to newegg reviewers, has a high failure rate.
This is also on ZipZoomfly for 78.90.
