In my main rig I'm still running a 2500K at 4.2Ghz on an MSI P67A-G43, cooled by a Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme. Its been that way for right around 4 years. In that time I've had a GTX 470 (with GTS 250 for Physx), GTX 560 Ti and a GTX 660... and I'm interested in upgrading the GPU again...

A GTX 960 with non-reference cooler seems to be pretty cool running for the performance, though without any context of what performance\price range you're talking about its hard to say.

I just picked up an XFX XTR series 550W PSU for $70 (-$15 in Amazon points) and it seems to be a really nice unit. Probably not enough for 970 SLI, but the next higher model would probably suffice. These PSUs get excellent reviews and use the same platform as Seasonic's G series. Full...

This is pretty old school compared to what you guys all have, but its still running. http://www.maximumpc.com/article/nuzzo_atari_rig It was featured as Maximum PC's Rig of the Month for July 2007. We built it in 2006 for about $400 (including tools and materials)... this was back before you...

I've been impressed every time I've seen a device with an OLED screen. The cost of any decent (IPS, VA) LCD panels is still higher than most people are willing to go for a computer monitor though, so that will certainly limit the adoption of newer, even more expensive technologies for PC...

I wasn't too impressed with the release I tried out a while back. It felt like Windows 7 with convoluted full screen start menu. Its probably decent for a tablet, but I don't see the point in forcing metro on a desktop PC.

When you can get far more CPU power than most people need for $200, they don't seem that expensive.
