Not anymore, no.

I have a 5850 in my system right now and desperately need to upgrade my graphics card as I've switched to a 1600p monitor last year. Noise is a pretty big issue for me. Looking at Anand's 2009 review of the 5850, it showed a floor of 46.6db at idle and a floor of 56.6 under load. Anand's review...

When will custom coolers for GTX 690s be available to hopefully get the noise down on them? My limit is about 50db under load, and the GTX 690 hits 55. Or will the custom coolers be designed to push the GTX 690 as opposed to getting the noise down?

As someone who's stuck with Verizon and still have a Droid OG, the S3 will be a massive upgrade for me. Sure, I guess there are better processors they could use, but in comparison to what I have, this is going to be great. I almost pulled the trigger on the Nexus but decided I could live with my...

What the heck is a 5250 phone?

Same here. I use a bluetooth headset anyway, so the extra size on the phone is a bonus.

I was quite interested until the price was announced. Sorry tablet guys, I'm simply not paying $500 for your tablet (unless it's a Windows 8 tablet using Ivy Bridge).

Will this have 3G, LTE, both, or neither?

So Jona, did you give up on getting Dell to sell you one of these at a reasonable price?

There was a promotion that ended on the 18th where the U3011 was being sold for $1124 with free shipping through their small business site. As soon as they offer that deal again, I'll pick one up.

Let us know how that goes, I'm also looking to pick this monitor up.
