    Check out the Galahad 2 Trinity "Performance" AIO 360mm. Rated #1 cooler for 2023. Loving it.

    RE: Galahad 2 Trinity "Performance" AIO 360mm Just finished my new RTX 4090 build and went with the Galahad 2 Trinity "Performance" AIO. Mostly from Tom's Guide ranking it #1 for 2023 and it getting top mention on a few other lists. I've used a few other Galahad models and this one definitely...

    EVGA B stock GPUs on sale now! $1199 3090 FTW3

    Not going to debate you, we think each other has a different opinion, and we do, and that's fine. I am not a young guy. I take 1 or 2 mental steps to arrive at a conclusion, younger men than me, take 15 steps to figure things out. They do this because they have more time to waste as where, I do...

    EVGA B stock GPUs on sale now! $1199 3090 FTW3

    That's always been the case. Comes down to if you have the money and are forward thinking or, you want to budget a purchase and are okay with older tech. No right or wrong answer here, only ones preference. Your PC, your rules. Personally for me, I would rather have new but others here are ok...

    I've owned 3 different FE models ... they all run about 10 - 12 degrees HOTTER than the other army of 3xxx series cards I've had possession of. It does look nice but the dead center of the card gets hotter than the flames of hell. You could literally cook a small quail's egg on that area. Serve...

    Ahh, ok, I did not realize that's what you meant and refering to. In general, left in the case, at $99, these are great drives. I have 3 now and also bought the Firecude 8tb Hub ( 7200rpm performance dreive ) for $118. I think I spent $450 or so with tax for 64TB of storage. I am playing Call...

    I stopped shopping Newegg a decade ago other than, very rarely. If you are fortunate to have a Microcenter near you, that's the best option period. Hopefully with Intel entering the GPU market, AMD catching up to nVidia in terms of performance ( real performance ) that this GPU shit storm is...

    They are SMR but there is a lot of urban myths about SMR drives. When the uninitiated start hearing labels like this attached to a product, the default human thought process is normally bad. You always hear guys say, "but, it's SMR" which goes viral and these negative connotations get attached...

    Our Microcenter has like 40 - 50 of these RTX 3050's in stock at $400 to $500 .... guess what, the RTX 3060 is cheaper in some cases. No one is buying these RTX 3050's. I have a feeling the prices will drastically fall on these shortly.

    Very warm - LG OLED 48" C1 ( NEW ) - Amazon - $1,050

    He is right, I have the 55" CX in my 2nd bedroom. It's a great set. I just recently sold my 55" C9 for $750 I think. The C9 CX and C1 are all great displays. Honestly, this C1 48" at $1,050 is a really sweet deal. If you guys haven't played games at 4K 120hz OLED with infinite blacks and REAL...

    Very warm - LG OLED 48" C1 ( NEW ) - Amazon - $1,050

    Early reviews are in on mini led and I think there is a glowing effect that is putting off some potential customers. I haven't researched this fully enough so I cannot make an informed comment at this time really. But I did read some negatives. And no, the CX is a great model. It's from 2020...

    Very warm - LG OLED 48" C1 ( NEW ) - Amazon - $1,050

    You're late to the party bro or, wasn't invited. All kidding aside, to give you the proper narrative here, this 48" LG OLED C1 is the 2021 model. It launched and retailed for $1,499 + tax or, $1,600 plus dollars. Also, this is just not a 48" ... it's a very very popular gaming display as well as...

    Very warm - LG OLED 48" C1 ( NEW ) - Amazon - $1,050

    Yes, they make some very beefy arms for this type of application. Start looking for arms to hold 55" to 65" and go from there. They are kinda pricey, $100+ range if not more expensive. Just "over-engineer" you search and you will be good.

    Oh wow .. I ran into Microcenter and priced matched it to $1499 from Newegg. Had $2300 credit in my return, ended getting the same performance as my 3090, but an all white GPU and ... AND ... $600+ in credit. Life is good lol. Think I will buy that Roland SP-404 MK2 I've been wanting. Thank you...

    Lucky I have the 2 year warranty on it for sure. I honestly can't tell much of a difference but if you listen carefully, you can hear the fan stop and start randomly just from the overall combined tone of the 3 fans. Ill put that credit toward something else I guess. I honestly do not want to...

    Yeah I saw that, at $700, that's a bad price. Forget to mention I did see that. Thank you so much for helping me out tho. I had a chance to buy a used white RTX 3060 a few months ago or less for $550 but passed on it since prices were starting to come down. I put a watch on the EVGA page for...

    Oh believe me, I did as well. ATM, I am too lazy to find the link but there was some leaked pricing but then again, a lot of that crap is faked fairly often and or applies to a different market other than North America, tho, it did look legit when I checked out the story. I just bought an...

    There is a new panel tech, EVO or something. Does the 48" and 42" C2 get the EVO panel tho? I thought I saw no or it could have been a rumor I read. Anyways, the C2 is launching with a new EVO panel that is brighter but, I saw a video where, it's really not that big of a deal. Right now, there...

    Very warm - LG OLED 48" C1 ( NEW ) - Amazon - $1,050

    I'm not sure. I can look. BRB ..... no, it's $1,195 for the 55" C1. Not sure I would pay that for a 55" considering you will have $110+ in tax. Personally, @ $1,300+ you can get into a 65" - 70" non-OLED but a set that would at least have full-array LED back-lighting which is still pretty damn...

    Creative Super X-Fi Headphone Amplifier - $60 - AVSForum Best of Cedia 2018

    It's actually specialized hardware and not a gimmick. When these came out back in 2018, they were kinda pricey, I think maybe $180 - $200? This, the X3 and the X4 are all fantastic pieces of hardware. Everyone seems to agree so. I love watching YouTube live music now, sounds incredible.
