    (DEAD) MSI GT73VR Titan SLI Laptop - unlocked i7 6820HK, SLI NVIDIA GTX 1070 for $1999 AR

    Really?! Have you tried using a 4k monitor on a laptop? For everything other than gaming a 17 inch 4k screen would be absolutely awful. I would much prefer a 1080p screen. Don't have to change the text scaling and can run every game for the next few years at max settings.

    [H]OT DEAL: Acer Recertified Monitors Back In Stock (X34 Predator $730, XR341CK $600 and more)

    It depends if you created an account using an email address. If you did not, you just have to wait for it to show up, but you can call or email using your order number and they can tell you if it has shipped.

    [H]OT DEAL: Acer Recertified Monitors Back In Stock (X34 Predator $730, XR341CK $600 and more)

    I ordered a XB270HU-brpz ips and an X34: The XB is disappointing because out of the box the contrast and color space were great with no dead pixels or ips glow/back-light issues. The bezel and base were scuffed up like someone used the monitor for lan parties or something, but I didn't care...

    Phanteks Enthoo EVOLV ATX Mid Tower Chassis Review @ [H]

    Yes, it is an improvement over the mATX version, but I have read on some of the UK forums that air gets trapped inside and they see about 6 degree difference in temps if they remove a side panel. I cancelled my order with Phanteks because they basically said the gray may never be released...

    i7- 5820K, i7-5930K, i7-6700K

    There is no way of knowing exactly how much Dx12 will take advantage of the extra threads, but there is only ~$50ish difference in price and you get 2 extra cores/4 extra threads. Depends what you want, usb C or more cores. The pcie lane statement is correct and incorrect: Skylake still only...

    Desktop rebuild with some surprise components to be revealed.

    I think the issue people might have is that most of your build seems budget but then you bought a very expensive mobo.

    Phanteks Enthoo EVOLV ATX Mid Tower Chassis Review @ [H]

    So, I placed my order as soon as phanteks had a pre-order available at their store. They sent me an email saying anthracite gray is delayed even further than black version and asked if I wanted to switch to black. They did not give a timetable for when they would send the gray...:mad:

    Are you guys going to upgrade to a 6700k when its out?

    Yes, p67 board is becoming buggy and I need pcie3.0. Hopefully I can overclock it past my sandy bridge.

    Intel Sandy Bridge 2600K and 2500K Processors @ [H]

    I have been doing some upgrading and was going to sell my 2600k, but it overclocks so well that I just decided to upgrade to a z77 sabertooth I found for $100. My old asrock p67 B2 was not getting it done anymore. Hopefully the 6700k @ 5.2 leak is real, but I still wouldn't think $500-600 is...

    Swiftech 240-x http://www.ebay.com/itm/161761181823 Because they are so hard to find in stock, I pre-ordered from PPCs and Sidewinder computers. Both got one in stock at the same time so I couldn't cancel in time. :(

    Phanteks Enthoo EVOLV ATX Mid Tower Chassis Review @ [H]

    This video should give you a pretty good idea of what you can do. I'm pretty sure you could do a 360 on top and a 280 in front, but you will have to be cognicant of the rad thickness and limiting 3.5in drives. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfLJfP0XyaE

    Asrock p67 extreme4 review (this is a pre-build log)

    That didn't take alot of time! My sata2 port is already taking 16 seconds more from the first install. Luckily I only need the disc drive for a few more items. Wish I could connect it to a sata3, but extremepro6 still seems a waste.

    Asrock p67 extreme4 review (this is a pre-build log)

    The core contact cooler has a latch mechanism similar to the 1156 conversion kit you had to install. The problem is that the part that you have to press down on is interfered by the nb heatsink. That is part of why it got bent. I ended up trying to make it work, but ended up breaking the...

    Asrock p67 extreme4 review (this is a pre-build log)

    I am going to create a log for all the parts I bought. Anyways, I don't like the fact that my sunbeam cold contact cooler did not work. It is a 775 cooler so I figured it would be at a weird angle. But it doesnt work. I actually broke the clip that holds the heatsink down. That is probably my...

    Get h70, astec 620, or save and get w/c

    The spacing of the psu and width of the case makes it hard to fit a dual on that spot. I have done alot of searches and havent been able to find someone making it inside the case. People just have the rad on the back or: I could do some dremel work and attach one on the top...

    Get h70, astec 620, or save and get w/c

    Thanks for the replies. Tsumi: I have thought of those cases and my gut reaction says to spend an extra 100-150 for a case I will use for very long time. The corsair 800d is very tempting. 86 5.0L: you are probably right. The rasa kit is almost the same price as an h70, I like the swiftech kit...

    Get h70, astec 620, or save and get w/c

    My question is whether to get an all in one cooler like the antec 620 or h70. My case would be hard to do a w/c loop the way I want to make it. I want the radiator inside the case. I have a sunbeam core contact. I assume that will fit the 1155. It was really good 3 years ago. Should I save...

    i7 860 @ 4Ghz to i2500k a worthy upgrade??

    No. Your system is strong enough. I doubt the "gaming experience" increase is worth $200. What aspect ratio do you have?

    Did I draw the short straw on the worst Sandybridge CPU out there?

    What is your cpu batch number? If you have one similar to one posted on http://hwbot.org/forum/showthread.php?t=16541 or http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=264874 or some other sites it might help us know what voltage and multiplier you should try.

    Vega's 2600k + Quad-6970 chilled build

    I'm not understanding this. Do you mean that chilled wc won't help because the chip can only handle so much of a multiplier increase? I dont think that extra cooling will hurt the cpu performance. I may be wrong. But if you can run 1.5+ volts 24/7 with temps never going above 40c... Well, Vega...

    Asrock was a subsidiary of asus until Dec. 2009. They are now competitors just like evga, gigabyte, or msi. That is why their quality is now getting more attention.

    Sabertooth P67 - Anyone buying?

    I am very disappointed that Asus is making people pay ~$40 for the cool tuf gear. It has less features than the pro. I am nowhere close to as knowledgeable as most people on this board. But this is my 4th build and I have gained alot of knowledge about price/performance. I will never team-lan...

    Stolen MacBook Contains Research For Cancer Cure

    I live 10 miles away from the OU research facility. The panera bread is in a bad (and yes oklahoma has those too) bad part of town. My question: how did they break the glass of a fairly new VW without a siren? This is a ghostbusters ploy. "we were so close. extend our funding".

    Can't Decide argh

    I am going to get a pro or sabertooth. My past few builds I have gone for the low enthusiast builds and have had success. If you spend 300 on an 1155 mobo you are wasting money. 8x/8x is not a big difference from 16x/16x. If I hear another person say that 2011 socket is worth waiting....!!! Go...

    Sabertooth P67 - Anyone buying?

    I thought that they added a pull up door for direct nb cooling. correct me if I'm wrong. I follow this for gaming. My old [h]ocp account email is gone. School email changes.
