I own one of these as well to clean my computer cases. Its worth buying so you don't have to buy compressed air cans.
Beware there is a downside to using this. After about 5 minutes of use (yes 5 minutes), the air it blows is pretty warm/hot. I have to wait about 30 minutes for it to cool...
I was wrong on the sales tax, its only applies for i7 "laptops'. I read the email flyer wrong sorry guys.
I'm not in a rush to build my next comp, so holding off on buying anything this black friday unless the deal is so sweet to resist. Fry's was showing 5960x for $899 and that is what I...
i7-4790k is $250 now that is a deal!
Even if it cost you $20 in gas to drive to a microcenter. <strike>Also note, they pay for your sales tax on i7 processors.</strike>

EDIT: Looks like I read the email...
Did you forget that these are only about 50-70 dollars cheaper after taxes. The brick and mortar places will have them for cheaper but with taxes added on it comes out roughly the same price as say newegg/amazon usually, I think we are seeing the price this low as they are trying to discontinue...
I saw this deal in the saturday email. But holding off for the 5960x to either drop below the $888 (lowest price they've had it). Or I might just wait till next year for the new enthusiast series.
I picked this up from Target today for $250 after taxes!!
$319.99 price match to amazon
15% cartwheel
10% movers
5% redcard
Can be even slicker if you have 5% for pharmacy presciptions. But $250 after taxes is amazing for my first HDTV:)
Almost every retail store is doing this nowadays. The word "sale" is basically a price hike nowadays. Recently, I got a 50 dollars of 100 from bonton but ofcourse they jack up the price by 50 bucks on almost everything. Macy's/Bloomingdale does the same thing. The only true "sale" is Black...
1 year behind if they get anything out by December 2014. Intel first said January 2014, then said August, and now they are hinting at December release.

This really kills it. None of the models have LTE, 3rd generation and people have been constantly asking for this. $799 with LTE would have sold me. I'll just wait for prices to fall I guess, not worth it when you can go with some of the amazing Fujitsu hybrid tablet-laptops in the same price...
Any opinion on the 6300 vs the 7500 model? I see the 7500 has longer blades, wonder if they wear out quicker since they appear to be thinner at the end from the pics.
What is the height clearance on those white holder/legs, seems like there is very little clearance to get your legs under the block comfortably without hitting your knees/thighs on the block each time you sit down or stand.
I placed one on reservation today because they are still out of the 3930k at the location near me. Going to wait to pick it up as I think they change their ads this coming week, hoping for something better for the 2nd build I want to do. Atleast, if the cpu deals on their ads next week are...
I was at MC last Friday trying to pick one of these up, was going to go with this and the Extreme11 for newegg for $500, unfortunately they sold out quick, but was told the deal was staying alive for a week longer. Wanted it for doing more threads, but..
I ended up getting the i7-2700k for...
Seems like there isn't a single good deal on Nvidia graphics cards this BF. I was looking for a high end gfx card with 4gb of vram, trying to stay away from AMD this time around on graphics cards, but there hasn't been a good deal on a 670 or 680.
Thoughts?
Wonder if a 384 bit card (gk110) is coming down the pipeline for mainstream, Tesla gk110 is already out but nothing for the mainstream yet, hopefully something before xmas would be nice:D.
This seems like a decent deal compared to what it has been priced for last few months, but not sure a...
I just used the following website to test the flicker:
http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/inversion.php#invpattern
It is worse than I thought, and maybe this could also be part of the reason?
I'm wondering if the flicker problem is related to using a mini-display port adapater, as I have...
For gaming, I assume I could just default to the 30" when I game if I have a PLP setup, and turn of the side monitors? I don't do any fps gaming so I think 30" would look nice in mmorpg games, such as gw2.
Previous monitor was a 24" Asus VH242
I've had that monitor for the past 4-5 years, thought it was time to upgrade the real estate.
I'll see how the 30" works out next couple of months before I jump on making any decisions to 2 monitor setup. My plan was to do the 20-30-20 PLP setup...
Turned the Brightness down to 20 and Contrast to 40, seems to be helping some, but still getting some strain on the eyes, headache is not throbbing as much anymore, my temporal side was going crazy before:eek:
Thanks guys this was really helpful, if you have any other things I might do to...
How would I go about calibrating the display? I have it set for sRGB atm, not sure exactly how to go about calibrating it.
Just turned down the brightness, will see how it is in 30 minutes or so!
Just got my u3011 today. I have the resolution set at max, and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but after about 20 minutes of browsing the web or working in excel or word. I seem to get a massive headache.
The monitor is about 3 feet from my eyes, I have also increase the zoom size in...
Got the email from the egg this morning and finally decided to buy one. I was going to wait till March, but I'm sure there will be few revisions of the new Dell 30" coming out in March so its more like waiting another year for a good 30".
Which monitors should I get for PLP setup to go...
I'll be buying one but going to wait until there is one with LTE support. I didn't see any of the ones coming out having LTE.
Looks like it might be a long wait still for that, but atleast by that time Tegra 4 will be out too:D
Also can't hurt to call Dell directly to see if they can cut you a deal on one. I've seen people post before that they've been able to get Dell to go as low as $1000 if you call them.
Thanks for all the opinions on this, I plunged and bit on the Aeron.
I tried out the Embody and the Aeron last week, and went with the Aeron chair cause it just felt comfortable first time sitting in it. The Embody was comfy but not as comfy as the Aeron straight off.
I ordered a fully...
