Hi all: Having a weird drop in performance after upgrading from my i7-920 @ 4 ghz to the i7-6700k @ 4.xghz (stock and overclock seem to have the same performance). Here is the background: I was running the 920 at 4ghz for many, many years and finally upgraded to the 6700k. I have a...

I just swapped my Bluestorm 500w PSU for a new BFG Tech ES-800, which I got a pretty nice deal on. Prior to installing the new PSU, I had my Q6600 running prime stable at 3.34ghz (9x370). Motherboard is an ASUS p5k vanilla, vcore set at 1.415 in the bios (substantially lower in windows -- I...

***SOLD*** Samsung 226BW panel for sale. Used for about six months, no dead pixels, minimal backlight bleed (less than the Gateway FHD2400 that replaced it!), great condition. Original box, etc. Price Drop --> Price: $200 + shipping. Newegg has 'em for $320, so I discounted for having...

Anyone know if the BenQ G2400W has 1:1 pixel mapping? Thanks a ton.

Anyone have any suggestions as between these two? I'll mostly be using the computer for average desktop use with some moderate gaming, including an xbox360 hook-up through the VGA port. I might also hook it up to an HDTV source if I become so inclined. Price is roughly the same, although the...
