    What I think the 6xxx series will be

    Having graduated, with honors, from WWW. Community College my educated guess is http://www.nordichardware.com/news/71-graphics/41251-amd-radeon-hd-6870-and-6850-launches-on-october-18th.html

    Dell Small Business has their two new IPS models, U2211H and U2311H, on sale for 25% off with the coupon code L0C?QB9$865114 http://www.dell.com/content/topics/s...=04&l=en&s=bsd With that coupon the U2211H is $209.25 and the U2311H is $239.25. That's one heck of a deal!

    GIGABYTE Super Overclock Series GV-N470SO-13I

    I've been looking for a couple of cards to replace my 2 XFX GTX285's and during my dd I came across that card. Not a whole lot of info on it, aside from http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/...-470,2713.html where they were able to O/C it to core clock to 800 MHz and the shader clock to 1600 MHz...

    Need laptop to fit these parameters

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834220696 It's a tad over your budget but the components are very good and Asus's laptop reliability ratings are excellent. This one could also fit your needs, at a lower price. http://www.amazon.com/N61JV-X2-16-In...pr_product_top The...

    How good is this asus gaming laptop?

    When these first came out I was debating about buying one from Newegg but they sold out within a couple of days. Now you can't find one in-stock anywhere and from what I've read their so heavily backordered no one knows when they'll be generally available. Also, due to the demand several...

    Pick between these two laptops for gaming & video encoding.

    I've never ran across the high demand that the G73 has generated but as you said "it really is one of the best deals around for a laptop." As a side benefit, this laptop is causing the other notebook manufactures to lower their prices. FYI, if you want to really drool, check out this laptop...

    Pick between these two laptops for gaming & video encoding.

    I'd get this one http://www.xoticpc.com/asus-g73jha2-order-p-2761.html?wconfigure=yes but it's turned out to be so popular that no ones got any in stock :(

    Is this a good gaming laptop?

    Due to the high demand the Egg had raised the price on that laptop a couple of times already. This is where I'd buy it http://www.xoticpc.com/asus-g73jha2-order-p-2761.html?wconfigure=yes But you can also find ~ the same deal(s) at...

    Upgrade video card?

    The recommended resolution for his monitor is 2,560 x 1,600. Something tells me that he lowered the resolution to get a fps boost but it's got to look, as you said, weird. With my 24" monitor I play games at 1920 x 1200, which is my screens recommended resolution and the games play and look...

    Upgrade video card?

    I just sold my old 9200, which had a 8800GTS, because I wanted to upgrade to a GTX 260 but discovered that the OEM Dell 325w PSU didn't have enough power to run that card. With your 3007WFP-HC monitor, the card you've got isn't sufficient to do it any sort of justice. Unfortunately the...
