    Ultra X-Finity 500W PSU (Titanium) $19.99 after $35 MIR + free shipping @ radioshack.com

    Back in stock. I ordered 1. For the price, the supply can't be beat. I will admit to having one and the fan seemed to not work correctly. Ultra shipped a new one out very quickly in advance. This also seemed to have a fan that did not work correctly. The supply itself seemed good, just the...

    Sparkle 400w PSU, 37.42 shipped @ Ewiz.com

    I used one of these in a build for my buddy. It seemed pretty quiet. I don't even think I could hear it over the few other fans in the rig. I actually like it enough that I also purchased one from the same link.

    Panasonic 50" Plasma hdtv (TH-50PX60U) $2699.98 Today Only CircuitCity.com

    Nice price. I play games on my 42" plasma that I got almost 3 years ago. No worries with burn in. You do need to take care of them though. After playing a game for long hours, I use the screen wipe feature for ~ 20 minutes and everything is fine. It may sound like a hassle, but I feel that...

    gt or xt?

    I just got in on the MSI X1800XT 512MB deal from newegg for $243 A/R. Even at $300 it is a deal. The 7900GT is very comparable to the 7800GTX's I have and would take the X1800XT over them any day. It seems that the X1800XT is more consistent with FPS with the min being higher than the min for...

    ewiz has 1GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive for 25.95

    I've had the Super Talent 512MB version for a year now and no troubles. It is very fast and it even went through the washing machine about a half year ago and kept all the data. Good thing it didn't make it into the dryer though.

    Monster cables

    Monster cables look soooooo good though! If you have loads of money to spend, Monster cable is something to help get rid of it, although there are more expensive alternatives. Me, I just bought some GE Ultra (or something similar) component cables and audio cables from Target for pretty cheap...

    Akai 42" HD-Ready Plasma Display TV @ Micro Center $1199 AR

    Sony is nothing like it used to be IMHO. True, I do own a Digital Handycam, PS2, and will buy a PS3, but as far as audio/video equipment, I stay away from them.

    Akai 42" HD-Ready Plasma Display TV @ Micro Center $1199 AR

    I've really enjoyed it for 2+ years I have owned it. I don't think you could go wrong, especially if it is Fujitsu/Hitachi and for that price.

    Akai 42" HD-Ready Plasma Display TV @ Micro Center $1199 AR

    Wow, nice price on an HD plasma. My Hitachi plasma is 1024*1024. Just the pixels are rectangular to give a 16:9 ratio. It is great for gaming (BF2, CS:S, etc...), but for stuff with a lot of text, the rectangular pixels are not great.

    ATI X800XL PCI-E Refurb $136 Shipped

    Nice price. They also have a sapphire crossfire edition refurb for 150. Cheap and powerful crossfire. I get ~ 9600 on 3DMark05 on my x800xl crossfire setup. No PS 3.0, but it is still a great setup.

    Now isn't this ironic?

    What's amazing that much of our current technology is based on 18th century mathematics and earlier.

    Sorry guys. I am almost positive when I posted this it was the GTX, but it is now definately a GT. The price has also changed.

    Gigabyte 7800GTX $472 Shipped! - Never mind, now GT

    Here... http://www.ewiz.com/detail.php?p=GA-P7800GT&c=pw&show=r Too bad I just ordered an MSI 7800GTX for $484 from Newegg, could have saved $12 towards the second 7800GTX and $24 for the pair!

    BFG 7800 GTX $491 shipped free!

    This is very tempting. Although I think I may have talked myself out of it. My X800XL and 6800GT can already feed my 2405 fine, and I am waiting for Crossfire next month so I can use 3+ monitors for 3D gaming. I believe SLi is only able to do 1 or 2 monitors, but correct me if I am wrong...
