Heh, my age is showing. :p
While I can not say with any great certainty, I would imagine this may have been Cobain's muse. (Or Neil Young)
Def Leppard's 1983 Album - Pyromania
Song Title - Rock of Ages
Looks like the B&M BB's are making shelf space. They've got the Corsair A70's and A50's on clearance. The pricing doesn't appear to be available through the online store, so YMMV as far as local stores/in-stock in concerned.
Pic of the A70 at a local store in DFW. I didn't get a pic of the...
Looks like there's a need for some factual evidence of this statement. As previously mentioned, the BB online store still shows the usual retail pricing, but that's not to say the B&M's aren't making shelf space for something else.
Not that I'd trust BB's online inventory listings, there's...
Well,
I got up earlier than usual this morning, *ugh*, to make the trek to the store.
I got there a little after they opened at 8AM. I was 1 of 6 customers in the store. ( 4 of which were already standing in the Customer Service/Geek Squad area)
The customer service associate was very...
Yeah, that's going to be the bonus P.I.T.A. :rolleyes:
Thankfully the store I bought this from is relatively new, and not in a major retail area, so the foot traffic is going to be lighter than a store near the malls.
The best part to going back is I've already met/talked with the store...
:(
Bought myself a gift the other day, and decided to open it tonight to finally make the jump from XP to Win 7.
I spent most of the day getting things prepped, and sat down just after dinner to start on the project.
Upon opening the box I picked up off the shelf at BB, I was greeted...
Any specific examples of a particular MFG and model that works well when no TRIM availability?
Reason I ask is I'm thinking of picking up 2 SSD's to run in RAID0 config for OS only. Due to monetary/financing constraints I'm looking at Intel X-25 V's in a RAID0 over a single/standalone SSD...

Time to clean out the closet. Lots of goodies that have been sitting idle for 6 months - 1 yr needing a good home. I'd like to give all the [H] folks the 1st option before I put them on eBay...
Does anyone know if there's a pre-fab 12V DC fan PSU out there that can be used for 1-2 fans in a PC/case-mod environment that doesn't require connections to a primary PSU? Maybe something that can be separately powered by a 60-90W external power brick? it doesn't need to be very big, in fact...
+1 for the WD TV Live. :D
Awesome tiny little box, and I do mean TINY. It's 3/4 the length of a 3.5 HDD. The box depth (front to back panel) is comparable to to the same HDD's width (3.5"), and it's about 2x height/thickness. That's it. I was seriously expecting bigger. I know all it really...
Just wanted to follow-up. Shipment arrived today. They split the shipment up a bit, as the case was sent from their TN location, and everything else came from CA. The CA box did look like the UPS monkeys thought it was made of Samsonite. Nicely dented corners, with 1 long supporting edge fully...
I picked up a set back in March when the local CompUSA had them on sale for $79.99+ tax. They've been great so far, and they really are a solid performer for a 2.1 setup. I don't use them for gaming ( use my Plantronics GameCon Pro 1 headset for that ), but music playback is very nice and...
Hey folks,
Anyone have input on the overall build/quality of either of these MFG's vid cards? Long term life expectations?
I'm in the market for a 9600GT. My HTPC's prior eVGA 8600GTS died ( apparently blew a couple of caps on the card). I usually lean on eVGA/XFX/BFG, but I'm a little more...
Thanks OP, I'm in for 1! :D
I don't "need" it, but it seems to be good enough to be a backend storage server. I've got 4Gigs of DDR2 1000 sitting around ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231145 ), with a spare PSU to boot. Now I just need to roundup a decent little...
FYI...
CompUSA is having a sale on the Logitech Z Cinema 2.1 speaker set. Normally listed as $299.99 on their website, but now showing on-sale for $79.99. (showing $244.99 at the egg)
I happened to stumble across the sale in the store while looking for something else. The store in Plano...
Yeah, but how would you factor in the 2yrs extra warranty you get with the black drive over the green?
Black - 5yr warranty
Green - 3yr warranty
I just picked up 2 Black drives at BB for $119.99 for my HTPC. I'm storing my Blu-Ray .ISO's for HDD playback. I was torn between the deal on...
