Replaced some ancient Logitech Z313s with a Vizio V21t-J8 2.1 soundbar/subwoofer. https://www.amazon.com/VIZIO-Compact-Theater-Sound-Virtual/dp/B099BJV68H Main reasoning was to clean up the cable mess the Z313's created since I moved into a new house and now I have my own office rather than...

Did a search, didn't find an answer, if there is one, just point me to it. I just moved out of Comcast's service area and into Wave (now "Astound") cable service area. Paid for their near-gig service which requires docsis 3.1 Plugged in a non-phone docsis 3.1 modem (Arris Surfboard SB8200)...

Just swapped out a 1700X for 2700X in system in sig. 1700X going to a family member. These mini 5 degree temp spikes are really annoying as they cause fan spool up. Information on the net is all over the board. "its normal"; "I never see it"; "run amd power profile" (I do, and it doesn't...

Why nobody else has done this in the last 10 years I have no idea, but at least someone has done it now. Leveraging AI to get superhigh temps on a solar concentrator array - enough to economically split H from H2O for hydrogen fuel...

Configurable. https://store.hp.com/us/en/pdp/hp-pavilion-laptop-15z-5mu54av-1 I upgraded to touch screen, Ryzen 7, and blue keyboard to cut down on reflections. 664.99, 730.16 out the door for me. Couldn't find a similarly spec'd Ryzen 7 and 16GB system for less than 800 anywhere else. BB

My progression was Rebel Ti (2005) -> 50D (2009) -> 70D refurb (2016) Might be time to upgrade again soon. The increased shutter speed, ISO capabality, and crop room from the extra megapixels is compelling...

ok.... Before I run all the diagnostics (I've done a few, just not finished yet) - anyone had an issue with a system locking hard at random points after sleep/soft reset? This just started happening about a month ago. System was perfectly stable for nearly a year. No changes initiated by me...

Over 800 days since 80D entered service. Rumors say photokina announcement, and current sales ($200 off body only at BH) would seem to indicate same. Got the GAS itch.... cheap 80D or "new" 90D. I like my crop sensor for the weight and the "apparent" extra reach for airshow photography...

Spent a weekend with an old college friend in San Jose, took a hike on point lobos and took a decent amount of pics, in spite of the marine layer clouds flattening everything out. I was able to preview the pics on the camera when I took them, but I put the card in my card reader when I got...

Did I really need to buy a Gigabyte Aorus 1080Ti for 949.00 to replace my 980Ti? Not really, I'm happy running my games at 2560x1080 (downrezed on my U3415W) but my son bought one for $1250 last month when he got his bonus, so when it popped up on the egg tonight for "only" $250 over MSRP at...

MSI 1080 Ti Duke was in stock for a bit today at the Egg for 900 bux - still high but not completely usuruos. Wwas about to hit "buy" and remembered to check the length - 12.75" #*&%^)#(*^@%#_)@(#$&* I only have about .75" clearance between my 10.9" 980 Ti and my radiator. So now I'm...

Last time this was asked seems to be 2012. Heading somewhere with warm water and sandy beaches for 30th anniversary vacation. Want a waterproof camera for the snorkeling. Nikon W300 (or one of the older remaining in-stock W130's for a bit cheaper) or Olympus TG-5.... Any of you guys got...

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834317594 Picked this up for my mother-in-law. Not ideal due to the fixed angles of the keyboard/tablet interface and the slightly less than ideal keyboard, but for $529 the specs simply cannot be beat. Equivalent surface pro 3 is...

VSB207-B I bought a previous model over two years ago for 49 bucks, and its still going strong. WELL worth the price. BB

Sharing my experience just to add to the group zeitgeist... I was looking for a new laptop to replace our aging and low resolution TN screen Asus K50. 1920x1080 IPS screen was the first requirement since I try to use these for light photo editing when on vacations. Doing that on the old asus...

At the egg, unfortunately for some... Acer B6 B276HULymiidprz WTF is it with acer's model number? Nice to see more of these 1440p monitors finally coming down in price. Regularly between 400 and 500 bucks lately. BB

It is so hard to find in specs of many laptops as to what kind of screen they have. Currently soldiering on with a 4+ year old cheapie asus k50 but am tired of having to look at the screen *just* so to figure out what I am looking at. I hate Sony but so far the SONY VAIO F Series SVF14217CXW...

Newegg email subscriber coupon code EMCXMXM56 required. Link No info or reviews out on the net yet that I can see, so no info on input lag, etc. It does have a scalar as its multi-input. So about 160 bucks cheaper than the Dell U2713 and about 170 bucks more than the Korean bare...

Core i7-860 rig in sig. About a two weeks ago I started getting blue screens with an "IRQL out of order" or something error. Based on similar experience a friend had, swapped RAM and it seemed to work. But now, its back a week later. Before getting the RAM, I ran Memtest86+ with no issues...

ECS P55 socket 1156 in the sig is failing with hard blue screens calling IRQ conflicts and BIOS wierdness on reboots. (hah! what a surprise, an ECS motherboard is failing! - mobo/ram/processor was gift from my son two or three years ago, its my only excuse) I can buy the last in-production...
