    WTB/WTT GTX 580 HSF

    Title says it all, I picked up an EVGA GTX 580 with a heatkiller waterblock on it. I would love use the waterblock, but it's not really worth the money and time to set it up. So I'd like to either buy a stock HSF or trade for the waterblock from someone. Lowest Price I've found on one is 50...

    Anyone know the difference between these two C300's?

    So did a lot of looking, and it seems to me that the best buy for SSD's right now is the C300's. But newegg has two - The CTFDDAC256MAG-1G1 at 525.99 and the CTFDDAC256MAG-1G1CCA at 619.99 Looking at the specs, I see zero difference, but a damn near 100 dollar price delta. Now, I'm...

    Anyone had luck with a R3E and new corsair dominator GT's?

    All I hear about is problems. I usually love corsair stuff and it's usually top quality, but that many people can't be "doing it wrong" right? So, anyone with a Rampage 3 Extreme had good luck with these modules?

    Custom cooled 480's?

    Seriously, where are all the super duper custom cooled GTX 480 cards? I know we have the EVGA superclocked version, but that is still using a reference cooler. Anybody heard any rumors about this? Going to buy at least one 480 in the next month or two and like the bling factor :D
