    DDR3 3x2 gb sticks, $80 After MIR, Free shipping

    Lose the attitude, when I opened your link it had them for $105, I posted some quick AMAZON deals to prove it wasn't a hot deal at $105 AFTER rebates. I wasn't the only one that saw the $105 price... prices change big deal.

    Antec 300

    It's weird because 80% of the time it's not noticeable, but every once in a while (not just when seeking) the drive bay will start resonating and making a LOUD humming noise that stops as soon as I apply pressure to the side of the case... I've tried some felt pads, tightening, loosening the...

    Antec 300

    It's not much yes it does have some space. Here's mine: The one downside to this case is the vibration from the HDD is driving me crazy... I ended up removing it from the hdd cage and just letting it lay inside the case vertically.

    Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 thumb button fix?

    New OS Drive, Hitachi or WD Black?

    I'm looking to buy a new main drive for my computer, my "old" 320gb (only 70gb free) will probably go into another computer and I'm not interested in RAID. I don't know when I'll get the chance to upgrade again so I might as well go for 1TB. So far my options are: -Hitachi 7k1000.B $89...

    Micron D9's on Crucial Value Ram

    Isn't all Crucial ram D9's though? I think I remember reading Crucial=Micron so almost all Crucial are D9's, the problem is there are different models like D9GKX, D9GMH and D9GQT. The value ram is probably some of the lower binned chips and won't net you a whole lot of overclocking even with...

    $2300 i7 Gaming Build

    I hate to be the voice of dissent, specially to people more knowledgeable than me but... If you have the money I personally would spring for something a bit higher than a GTX 260.

    Is my card (7900GT) dead?

    Because eVGA was giving 8800GT's and in some cases 9800GT's as replacements for the EXTREMELY faulty 7900 series while XFX was giving back 8600GTS until a few months ago. THAT is the kind of customer support I want, not the "we give you back whatever we want like it or not" line XFX gave to its...

    Is my card (7900GT) dead?

    Oh yeah, I know that screen.. I had an XFX 7900GT and it too made that screen when I tried anything 3D, heck at the very end it also distorted anything 2D even the BIOS! Make preparations, that puppy is going to videocard heaven.

    Intel Core i7 Application Results @ [H]

    So an overclocked (3.4 to 3.8 ghz) non extreme CPU (Q9550, Q9650) could potentially put up a fight with the i7 920? Interesting!

    Intel Core i7 Synthetic Benchmarks @ [H]

    You have a point there. But didn't the guy that bought an i7 965 Extreme buy it for $1050? with msrp of that cpu at $999? not that much of a jump. I guess my point if any is that Intel could have charged a lot more for the 920 :P
  40. S

    Intel Core i7 Synthetic Benchmarks @ [H]

    I mean the 920 at $280 isn't exactly priced as an enthusiast CPU, specially when the motherboard is more expensive than the CPU. Heck, it's $50 less than a Q9550.
