    "Tantalizing THQ Medley" 6 game Bundle $10

    Amazon did the same thing last year. At first you thing that $5 worth nothing in January when games are back to normal prices for the selected applicable games. But I was able to spend at least 3 coupons in games that they indeed put on sale making them very good deals.

    @Magic: After some googling finding how dump the bios here it is http://www.mediafire.com/?rbyh411f46m7k56 I assume by your request that the "Minimum" voltage I can set in Afterburner is limited in the Bios? Is that minimum voltage the same used by the card in the lower performance states...

    Video cards undervolting... Post your results!

    my MSI 560ti is factory overclocked to 880Mhz at 987mV. I can underclock to 950mV stable but afterburner wont let me further lower voltage. I did notice using GPUshark that coincidentally 950mV is the voltage of lower p states. Is it the lower limit?. How can I go lower voltage?

    Cavalry eSATA 8-Bay eSATA Enclosure $199.99 Free Shipping @NewEgg

    The model number in their website (CADA-SA8) is different from the model in newegg sale (CADA8B-SD). The problem is what is on sale do not exist in their website. But if I had to guess I'd say it is the same chasis without including drives and raid card. Hopefully someone buy it and enlighten us...

    Serious Sam HD: Gold edition 9.99

    In fact if you only want HD versions (and you should) the double pack is only 7.49. Buying the "gold" for the old versions is not a good idea, you will have repeted games in your steam account because there is no different between HD and original versions except for the improved graphics.

    Acer AS7551G 17"Laptop, 1GB AMD HD 5650, 3 core AMD N830, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD. $543.99

    Before SSD existed, first thing I use to do with laptops was replace standard 5400rpm HDD for 7200 HDD and I have to say the performance increase was quite noticeable (off course not comparable with replacing it with an SSD). This is for sure the bottleneck of this PC.

    LG 10x blu-ray burner, with powerdvd 9 and 3d glasses $79.99

    Right there you can get 25 pack of 4x BD-R 25GB for only $20 shipped after $5 combo discount . That would make them 80cents per disk (or 3 cents per GB). In comparison that's around the lowest price per GB for an HDD ever (remember the very short lived 2TB for $60 at new egg before Black Friday).
