    large monitors not worth it?

    Worth is subjective. It is going to differ when asking different people Consider that 1920x1200 is about 11% more pixels to manage vs. 1920x1080. Its not that big of a difference. If you want more fps most games have settings where you can adjust the performance of the game.

    GPU prices going up?

    it lasted almost 7 hours from when the deal was posted. Quite a bit longer than your "hasn't for a second" claim only if you disregard the people who say they bought it

    GPU prices going up?

    Believe it or not, I'm walking on air. I never thought I could feel so free. Flying away on a wing and a prayer. Who could it be? Believe it or not it's just me.

    New Card: Does a 6850 even make since?

    Yes, the 6850 is a good choice for you. It really depends on how much you can get it for. You talk about studying abroad. Are you in the U.S. right now? If so, the most I would pay for a 6850 is about $120. You can find it at those prices on sale if you keep up at slickdeals or a similar...

    DDR3 vs DDR2

    That would have been a good strategy for Oct~Dec of 2011. Prices have already went up. Not a lot but they have gone up. And deals for them are pretty rare now (apart from so-dimm) compared to the flood back then.

    SB pricing after IVB release (Speculation)

    Ha, no way! They sell for about $180 used right now and I expect they would drop some, to maybe around $150~160 during that time frame.

    Confirmed: H61, H67,P67 and Z68 to support Ivy Bridge (With appropriate BIOS updates)

    I doubt they will plummet. Haven't looked too much but it seems like a 2500K can get around $180. I expect them to sell for $160 or more even after the IB K variants are out. I also expect IB to work about 5% better at the same clocks (disregarding any gains from the integrated video) so its...

    [fud] AMD Radeon 7770/7750 coming in February on 28nm process - specs/prices

    Prices for videocards have been sucking for six months + (back when you could get GTX 460 for $60AR!) but out of all the choices, AMD has been having the best deals recently. As already posted, 6870 sale prices are usually $140AR (sometimes bundled with games) and 6850 around $120AR. The...
