    how is EVGA customer service with regards to mobos?

    I've always heard good things about evga customer service regarding their vid cards, but I've never owned one of their products ever. How is their cs on mobos? I noticed newegg's warranty policies require me to deal with evga for all returns/warranty stuff. I'd never want to be placed in that...

    For gaming with modest OC, i7-6700k, i5-6600k, or i7-5820k?

    Recently I've been tossing around the idea of building a new gaming (and possibly video editing) box vs waiting till next year as I'd originally planned. I'm a conservative ocer who focuses on low noise and having a stable system that lasts for ~4-5 years. I'm also a bit of a graphics whore...

    500GB Samsung 840 (non-pro) $295 free shipping

    via slickdeals Great price on a solid high capacity ssd. Glad these things are dropping to sub-$300 this early in the year. Bodes well for plummeting ssd prices throughout the year.

    55" Panasonic Viera 3d tv $899 from Frys w/ f/s

    from Slickdeals Don't know this TV specifically, but looks to be a pretty hot deal to me. A Panasonic Viera w/ 4 hdmi, built in wifi and 4 pairs of glasses make the deal (unless glasses are a deal-breaker 4 u) versus a no-name brand or a similar tv that skimps on the extras.

    CyberLink PhotoDirector 3 free download with key from Cnet

    from Slickdeals. Offer expires Feb 1st. (direct link to Cnet page) Not as powerful as that (probably pirated) copy of Photoshop many people use, but better than most of the freeware stuffs. The confirmation email doesn't contain the key, so the paranoid/anti-spam among us can just use a fake...

    linkage $4 shipping on the 250, free on the 500. The 500GB PRO version is also 4 sale but price is meh. There have been similar sales on the 840 recently, and it's quite possible that before summer we will see these drives drop to ~50 cents/GB, but as it stands now these are a pretty solid...

    revised and lower priced: Thermaltake's new Level 10 GT

    Thermaltake announced a new Level 10 GT at CES. Link to TT's Flash page. In many ways it looks to be an improvement. Some of the details: MSRP of $269. Not cheap, but a helluva lot more competitive and reasonable than the original. This is partially due to TT ditching the all-aluminum design...

    Netgear wndr 3700 BIOS upgrade worth it?

    Question: We've had our Netgear wndr3700 since October 2009 sporting the original v1.0.4.31NA BIOS. I'd like to upgrade to a newer BIOS for the traffic meter, but various fora are still showing a fair number of owners complaining that newer BIOS updates cause problems with the router's USB...

    NZXT Phantom case: lotsa airflow and perks.

    Spotted this article over at PCPer previewing the NZXT Phantom. Like most websites, they did more of a "tour" than a review (no temp or dB testing), but it's a good look at the case. The article lists the MSRP as $140, but Amazon has it up for pre-order at only $128 w/ free shipping, in all...
