    Is <$400 pricing realistic for 1070?

    Trying to save up for one. I'm not rushing to buy it, but so far the cheapest one I've seen is still around $420.

    Are the macro keys on K95 practical?

    How easy is it for you guys to accurately hit those keys? Especially in games where you need to hit them fast. Should I just get something like the orbweaver (I don't want to get Razer stuff though) if I want easy to locate/press macro keys?

    Well my friend is looking for one. He needs these things: Large size. He uses a Mamba and likes the size. Not a dust magnet. Anti-sweat or something like that. Palm grip. Any suggestions?

    Help with Straight Talk

    So I have an old Nokia 3220 I want to use. And yes, imo old Nokia are the best phones ever. But when I try to buy a SIM card from StraightTalk, it tells me I need the unlimited plan. I don't want to pay the extra 15 for the data that I can't even use. Is there a way to work around it?

    How fast is M.2/NGFF?

    I went through a few pages of Google and didn't find much. I think I read somewhere that M.2 is the same speed as SATA3. Is this true?

    In game currency for Planetside 2, Hawken and World of Tanks with Nvidia cards

    http://www.g e f o r c e.com/landing-page/free-2-play Not sure if hot, but basically, you get $25 worth of microtransaction money for each of those three games if you buy GTX 650 or 650Ti. You get $50 for each of those three games if you buy GTX 660 or above. It could be a hot deal if you can...

    How to increase wireless speed?

    I was having FIOS 25/25. Just got an upgrade to 60/30, which works only with Ethernet connection. Wireless is still 25/25. Tech support said he couldn't help. Do you guys know anything that could help? The router is the original one that comes with FIOS. 802.11g. I did hear that around 25 is the...

    Mushkin SSD at 50C?

    It's a Mushkin Enhanced Chronos Deluxe 240GB. It keeps running at 50C, which got me worried. Both crystal disk info and hwmonitor have the same reading. However the temp is always 50C, which got me thinking maybe the reading isn't correct after all. Any thoughts?

    Seagate dead. How to fix?

    ...FUCK! Ok, now I've gotten the anger out, let's talk about the problem. It's a barracuda 3TB and suddenly it's not recognized by my computer. When I plug it in, it acts as if it's a new drive. Disk Management shows the drive with 3 parts, one RAW partition around 350 GB and two unallocated...

    MSI P67A-G43 motherboard (new)

    EDIT: This IS the B3 stepping version. It's a new motherboard I got from RMA'ing with MSI. They sent the new motherboard in a generic white box. It seems like they only sent it with one SATA cable, so I can include another one if you want me to. It's now discontinued. Back when it was on sale...

    Seagate Expansion 3 TB good?

    I need a hard drive. Damn the flood in Thailand, but there's nothing I can do about it. The Seagate 3TB external drive seems good for $160. Is it reliable? I'm using this purely as a data drive, so I don't have any speed requirements. All that USB3 and 7200RPM are bonuses.

    Sager NP9270/Clevo P270WM anyone?

    After x7200, Clevo upgraded their flagship laptop. http://www.sagernotebook.com/index.php?page=product_info&model_name=NP9270 Some key features are X79 chipset. So yes it uses a desktop CPU, up to 3960X currently, and Ivy Bridge when it comes out. RAM wise it supports up to 32GB (4x8) at...

    How to change from coax to ethernet?

    So I got a new router (DIR 655), but I forgot Verizon FIOS is using coaxial cable in my house. I looked around and seems like I can just call them to have it switched to ethernet connection. Would that cost extra? Or can I just do it myself? I don't have FIOS TV btw.

    P67A-G43 POST error?

    It's an entirely new build. i7 2700k, 5870 (I think it's either a reference card or the visiontek one), 2x2G Crucial ballistix@1333, and of course the MSI P67A-G43. What's happening is, when I try to boot up the computer, it has three short beeps. Two of the same pitch, and a third higher...

    How much will I need for i7 2700k + dual GTX460?

    I searched around online, and looks like the peak load is somewhere around 600W. Does that mean I would be fine with a 650W? Or am I better off with a 700-750W? Assume everything is stock.

    Need help to choose a case.

    Stereo in voice chatting?

    I'm not exactly sure how to summarize the problem in a short title so it's kind of confusing.. I use an external audio interface since I do recording a lot. I constantly use it, but I do not disable my onboard soundcard. The audio interface is M-Audio FastTrack Pro. It connects through USB 2.0...

    A short (maybe not) review of Roccat Kone

    This is a review of the revised Kone, not Kone +. I bought it on ebay after hearing the original Kone had a fragile scrolling wheel, and this revision is supposed to fix it. Bought it for around $70. It shipped from Israel. :D Anyway, you guys can pull the feature list from the net so I'm...

    Verizon FIOS - change to other wireless routers?

    Complete networking noob here.. Hope someone would answer my questions. So as the title suggests, I am using verizon fios. It's pretty fast, in fact I just did a speedtest and here is the result. But I always want more. My laptop has Intel 6300, which supports up to 450Mb. But the Actiontec...

    Roccat Kone or Mionix Naos 5000?

    Both look very comfortable, and both provide enough features for me. The only possible difference would probably be actual usage problems. What do you think are the cons of each mouse?

    Vertex 2 60G or Momentus XT 500G?

    Well I have the x7200 laptop. I got a 60g vertex 2 as the OS drive and it's great. But the 320G hard drive that came with the laptop is running out. I have two choices: get another vertex 2 and make RAID 0 with the system drive, or get the momentus XT 500G which is about the same price on Newegg...

    Budget LGA 1155 Mobo?

    I'm building a semi-budget (~$700) gaming desktop for a friend. Currently I'm thinking about a i3 2100 with a GTX 460. Which mobo would be good? I would prefer two x16 slots for possible SLI in the future, but that is not a necessity because I need to keep the mobo below $150. Any good choices?

    120hz or IPS?

    It's kind of hard to decide here. I mostly game, so a 120hz monitor with low ghosting would be very beneficial, but I also have never tried any monitor other than TN panels. I would really like to try out. Response time is fine as long as it's not too bad (around 7-8 ms g2g is fine to me), but...

    Need help on deciding new keyboard

    I have my eyes on three keyboards: Blackwidow, 7G and Das Ultimate. I am not annoyed by the sound of tactile and audible feedback so that's not a problem. Actually I would prefer the click noise. Although money is not an issue, I don't want to go above $150. Any suggestions?
