    X570 Crosshair VIII Dark Hero

    Do we have an Asus rep on this forum? That's not cool at all.

    X570 Crosshair VIII Dark Hero

    Just a final update on the BLT side of things, my pre-order was pushed back to 1/9 so any orders not made in November are in limbo at this point. Best of luck to any of you all that are patient and still waiting. I'd wager if your spot in line was any later than say Dec 10th, you aren't going...

    X570 Crosshair VIII Dark Hero

    Nothing still about any tangible shipments, they've passed two or three ETAs now for my order so I'm gonna cancel mine if its not shipped by tomorrow. I'd rather take a Hero Wifi for $300 than sit around for another month wondering when BLT may or may not ship a Dark Hero. I don't blame them...

    X570 Crosshair VIII Dark Hero

    I'm glad he is legit, but its a bit of a tough situation to fairly moderate accounts where someone who is essentially brand new is offering to sell a $400 item like this. That's got to violate quite a few established rules?

    X570 Crosshair VIII Dark Hero

    My order is bumped to 12/30 as well but I placed Dec 1st. Sounds like they didn't get a single board this week, I'll give them one more "Deadline" since I'm going to be busy for the next week and then I'll have to just pick something else to go with. Not really a fan of this "take as many...

    X570 Crosshair VIII Dark Hero

    ETA on my order from BLT is still showing today 12/22 but no update email or website status. Wonder if the shipment is delayed at all.

    Thanks! I wasn't able to find that on my own either.

    X570 Crosshair VIII Dark Hero

    My two week old order still says shipping 12/22, gonna be crazy if they really do secure ~500 boards when no other website has had any listed for sale in weeks as far as I can tell.

    X570 Crosshair VIII Dark Hero

    That makes me feel better, my # is 923, but my ETA is different and shows 12/22, maybe there is an additional shipment coming for us late folks. Or it could just mean I'm still weeks out and have to wait for a third shipment sometime hopefully around the end of the year.

    X570 Crosshair VIII Dark Hero

    I preordered a few days late, think I'm like ~500 in line and received an email saying "We have a big shipment coming on the 21st" but outside of that I don't really have any expectations that I'll get one this year.

    Newegg Open Box (Powercolor 290x w/ EK Block) - $259

    Thank you for the heads up, I bit. I was about to grab one of the $270 deals on an aircooled 290x, this is insane for the price. I'll be sure to check into the VRMs as well. <3

    Used 32GB Surface RT $166 +FS @Cowboom

    Also seems the RT isn't able to swap to android or such (yet?) as nobody has broken the secureboot =( Would have made for quite the android plaything.

    Surface Pro 128gb (First Gen) $599 Best Buy (Clearance YMMV)

    Yep. 2 cores w/no HT, probably about half the GPU power. Not really worth $100 bump, even if it includes a keyboard.

    Valve's Steam Machine Prototype

    So what exactly is the point of all of this outside of a neat looking controller? Anyone can build the same thing in roughly the same sized enclosure and play the same games for -at most- the same price. Is steam trying to pull an Apple here and force the same old shit down our throats and...

    NVIDIA Interview: The Sky Isn’t Falling

    Until 3DFX came to the scene I don't think one could claim that PC's had better graphical performance than a console unless you want to argue 2d graphics possibly?

    $50 comfortable wireless headset

    I am bit spoiled by my Sennheiser 590's and can't stand most wireless headsets even some of the "nicer" models, I wonder if it is just an open vs closed design that I am being a baby about. I posted a few but then realized you asked for wireless, unfortunately I can't find any "open" wireless...

    Leaked Radeon R9 290X Benchmarks?

    I can't imagine Nvidia will be too happy about this if it is true. I can't see them dropping the Titan by $400-$450 overnight.

    FX-8300. Who sells them?

    Yea there are a few on Ebay for around $210 or so it seems. Is that price premium worth it...? I have no clue = /

    Kaveri Details - 13 Compute Unites - up to 832 Shaders

    Yeah, if its anything like that, wow. I was curious how they were going to leverage all the R&D coming out of the console development. I hope this is just the beginning.

    Sacred 2 Gold on Amazon 4.99

    I've played a lot of Path of Exile in the last month and have not experienced any of that. There are countless instances so you rarely see a big group of people unless you bounce around a lot. I have never had a problem finding most items that I would want...albeit most people do ask for...

    NeverWet $20

    If it is silicone based, as I heard it is, might it be a barrier to heat transfer if it hits heatsinks and.. basically anything in the case?

    Logitech Refurb G600 MMO Mouse $40

    As a workaround but not a permanent fix to the problem, if anyone actually encounters it: QUOTE "Regarding to this issue, have you tried changing to the PC memory profile in Logitech Gaming Software instead of the Logitech G600 MMO Gaming Mouse's onboard memory? Furthermore, do you use Enhance...

    Current gen games on Wolfdale?

    Thanks for posting that article. I am still running a E8400 myself OCd to 3.6-4 and it is being absolutely DESTROYED by modern games. I barely broke 30fps in Bioshock Infinite (high to ultra or whatever settings), I can barely break 60fps in minecraft with optifine, Farcry 3 was not terrible...

    Bioshock Infinite - $36 Steam Key Intkeys

    Yeah I ordered Borderlands 2 from them, never got a key. They never responded to a single email asking for help, but immediately responded to my paypal dispute. Too bad you can't technically dispute digital purchases, I just wanted to see if they were alive. Not calling them thieves, but they...

    Hydroxycut [H]ardcore Elite buy 1 get one free. 100 ct. - 39.99

    Placebo effect is a bitch ain't it? Huxley hit the nail on the head. Veganism is a cultural fad, outside of the original concerns for animal well-being. It offers nothing that a well structured diet of wholly unprocessed foods can not offer as well. Same thing with "Gluten Free" diets. Lots...

    http://phoenix.legalexaminer.com/fda-and-prescription-drugs/sales-of-jack3d-and-other-dmaa-products-halted-by-fda/ Basically they had a small window to sell off whatever stock they may have had, and then selling any after that point may have resulted in trouble.

    "Double your wireless performance and bandwidth with simultaneous 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands speed up to 300Mbps concurrently" RT-N56U So both the 56U and the 66U are concurrent, but the 66U has the 802.11ac tech inside, if you somehow need that in the near future.

    Multi monitor vs 120hz 3d gaming?

    A 5790 would be crushed by an x1440 or x1600 monitor, unless you are ok with running everything on medium-low settings? If you want to hit 60FPS across 3 screens you are going to need to SLI/XFire some high end cards. A single 7970 would likely be cutting it close if you wanted to max out the...
