Asus Strix 980 is at Newegg NOW! I think this is the first sighting of this card anywhere. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121905

Me too, but I'm also waiting on Maxwell, so my suffering will not end here.

Well, I can tell you that this one won't work for the UM95. The size of the rails is ok, but the hole pattern makes it so that you can't attach them without blocking the inputs on the monitor. Specifically the DC IN, HDMI1 and DisplayPort. :(

Impact VII will be announced in early June.

Yep, it was actually pretty simple. Thanks for the help!

I'm running Window 8 (bootcamp) on a 16GB rMBP with a 768GB SSD. I've been having a lot of fun creating an active directory network within Hyper-V to play with the Microsoft BI stack (SQL Server, SharePoint, etc.) Ideally what I'd like to do is to join my Windows 8 host, as a client, to the...

This is not exactly true either. As a retina MacBook Pro owner I can tell you OS X and Windows 8 have much improved non native scaling. I'm not sure what kind of wizardy is going on under the hood but OS X looks beautiful in many resolutions. I'm using Win 8 most of the time and while I'm not...

There are some who would disagree with that. Unfortunately, I don't think we have enough information yet.

My memory has two profiles, SPD and XMP. By default, the BIOS initially used the SPD profile which set the RAM to 1333. Usually there's a setting in the BIOS to enable XMP timings. I just switched mine to 1600 and it picked up the XMP timings. And yes, Intel, refers to this as overclocking.

Asus Maximus IV Extreme w/ Corsair Vengeance 16GB (factory rated/tested @ 1600).

I'm currently running the Vengeance 4x4GB kit at 1600MHz at stock voltages and settings. I wouldn't call that overclocking.

My point was that populating all 4 slots does not limit you to 1333, as this thread was suggesting.

Populating all 4 slots does not limit you to 1333. The Sandy Bridge controller is proving to be pretty formidable, in fact the Corsair Vengeance 16GB kit runs at 1866 and beyond. http://www.corsair.com/blog/corsair-vengeance-high-density-module-overclock-results

I always heard 80%, but that had to do with rotational latency and leaving enough space for defragmentation. Two things we don't have to worry about with an SSD. Supposedly... I saw a post from someone whose SSD fragmentation was 60% so he ran Perfect Disk and benchmark scores improved...

OCZ's produict sheet states the 120 gets half the read IOPS of the 240. http://www.ocztechnology.com/res/manuals/OCZ_Vertex3_Product_sheet_3.pdf

I don't know what country you are in but how about Corsair Vengeance? It's 1.5V (but BTW, plenty of people are doing fine with 1.65V kits). http://www.corsair.com/memory/vengeance/vengeance-16gb-dual-channel-ddr3-memory-kit-cmz16gx3m4a1600c9.html

Charged me regular price (279.99) at microcenter in Madison heights today (Detroit).

Sh!t I would buy it at 350 if I can ever find it again!

Anybody read the terms and conditions to determine the catch?

No, not JEDEC rated, but reseller (Corsair, G.Skill, Mushkin) tested.

Extremely pleased with the price. Protip: American Express users can get a 350.00 Dell certificate for ~35000 points thru Membership Rewards.

AFAIK, Dell has not even acknowledged that the monitor exists yet. Rumours however have slated this for a Sept-Oct release.

Not that I'm aware of, but I have been looking and what I'm finding is hilarious! 1) FlatpanelsHD posts Dell U3011: More information and launch date with i beleive, this thread as it's source! LOL! 2) HDTV Review links to the above and titles it Dell Release More Information About U3011 HD...

Damn, I want to bite on this but the old addage 'if it's too good to be true' comes to mind.

Ho Lee crap! That link really put it in perspective, thanks!

Took a look at a 27" iMac next to a 30" Apple Cinema Display at the Apple store the other day. The 30" still seemed to have significantly more screen size to me. The 27" didn't look much bigger than my 24" (Dell 2407). However, the 27" iMac with it's glossy display really blew me away compared...

The reason people are talking about this model number is because it is listed in the desciption for the Dell soundbar as being compatible with it. While that can be considered a clue that Dell may soon release a 27" monitor, Dell has never even acknowledged that this product exists, therefore...

Here's a big question. If and when the new 3009(?) is announced, will it be 16:9 or 16:10? Seems the whole industry is moving to 16:9 for economic reasons.

CeBit begins on 3/3. Maybe we'll hear of a new 30" then. According to the link on the Dell site the current sale ends 3/5.

IIRC the 250.00 Amex GC's can only be used on computers. The one for accessories (monitors) is only 50.00 :(. I always use Amex points to buy from Dell.

I think with PC's there's a bit of a mismatch. HDMI carries high quality audio, whereas the speakers integrated into LCD's are relatively poor quality. Unless I'm mistaken, I don't beleive monitors would passthru audio to external speakers.

I don't think Dell is even shipping yet.

What!? I thought the complete opposite. HotHardware gave it a very positive review with lackluster testing methodology. ExtremeTech gave it a mixed review using actual lab equipment. Are you sure your not letting your lust for this monitor cloud your judgement? I really wanted this monitor to be...

I wouldn't expect any delivery or official specs until the week of January 7th when it will be officially announced.

Its generally regarded as a poor scaler, at least as opposed to the Realta. It would be like Dell building their new XPS gaming boxes with a Creative Labs Audigy instead of an X-Fi. Any 1080 source like the TiVo or XBOX will need to be scaled to 1600p. Now the Faroudja may be good enough but it...

Faroudja may be a deal breaker for some... like me who will plug a 360 and a TiVo into it :(

Wow, a Gateway fanboy! ;) Seriously, I would like to see the Gateway and Dell next to each other. Wonder how I'll be able to work that out...

Wow, just calculated that 2560x1600 has 80% more pixels than 1900x1200. I didn't realize that the difference was that big! Hopefully next gen 30" monitors will hit at the same time NVIDIA's next gen hits - or, I wish NVIDIA would license SLI for Intel chipsets.

Response time seems a little high but looks good for a 30". Moving from a 2407 with 6ms I wonder if I'll notice.
