    ASUS ROG G750 w/ 870m or wait for 965m? HALP, quickly!

    I am considering buying the ASUS ROG G750 G750JS-NH71 with a 870m (3gb) for $1100 but with recent benchmarks coming out on the 965m, their performance is very similar but power consumption and heat is quite a bit better. Right now the pickings are slim but the Sager NP8670 with a 965m can be...

    Nvidia control panel - Settings file location?

    Well, there's only two files in the Control Panel Client folder. The control panel client.exe and a dll file. I guess i could poke around the dll file with a hex editor to see if it contains any info.

    Samsung 15.6" laptop (with Numpad!) for $379 shipped

    How does the samsung compare to this Asus? http://www.amazon.com/ASUS-X55C-DS31...productDetails A guess the Asus has a second to last gen i3, one model lower graphics but pretty much the same everywhere else. I've seen and used quite a few Asus laptops and I like them quite a bit. Never seen...

    Looking for #80 Jimmy Graham size T4 or T5 for my 6 year old Godson. All the websites google turns up look pretty shoddy. Anyone know of a decent place that has these available? Christmas is getting closer and I'm getting desperate!

    50% Off Coupon at Logitech.com - What to buy?

    Their current mouse lineup is deplorable! I don't think there will ever be a suitable replacement for my VX revolution. :(

    You guys think it's necessary to have screen protectors on your touch screen devices?

    I've had the 3G, 3GS and now the iPhone 4. I'm careful to place it in a pocket with nothing else, never put it down face down, etc. Never used a screen protector, only minimal cases that protect the back and sides. I've never had a single scratch, "/knock on wood". My girlfriend recently got...

    8th Annual Anandtech Tax Time Thread (OP Updated 14th Jan)

    I assumed this was always the case. I almost claimed my GF last year but she barely made over the limit of income. Why do you consider this a loophole? If you pay for 50%+ of someones expenses, should you not be able to claim them as a dependent and catch a break on taxes? So what i gather...
