Hmmm... How about a Radeon 9550? It looks like I could get one of those for $70 shipped.

I suppose I don?t have to buy new, but I would prefer to (even if it?s refurbished or OEM), just to have the peace of mind of a return policy, etc. If dual DVI out will make the price jump, I can certainly live without it. If I could get it for a small premium, I would do it though. Is there...

I just looked these up and they are WAY more than I want to spend. I definitely want the highest Aero classification, but can easily ditch the dual DVI requirement to save $. I am not looking to spend even $100 on this card. The only things I HAVE to have are DVI, AGP, and Aero compatibility...

So logic would dictate that it would be about the same picture quality given the same setup and settings as the Samsung 206BW, right?

The title says it all. I'm looking to upgrade my Ti4200 to something that will do the Aero interface in Vista. Since I don't want to upgrade my mobo right now, I would need AGP rather than PCI-E, and therefore don't want to spend much money on a basically obsolete interface. I need DVI and if...

Does no one know what kind of panel this is? At this point, I would also find it helpful if anyone has seen it in a store to compare it to other monitors. I am having a hard time determining if it really looks better than the Samsung 206BW or if it was just the setup in CC. They do such a...

Well, I found out why there is hardly any information available on this monitor. Apparently it just came out. Since all of the monitors at Circuit City were hooked up to the same computer with VGA, it seems like a terrible way to differentiate between monitors. I?m hoping someone here has...

Does anybody know anything about this 20" LCD monitor (panel type, etc.)? I can't find anything here on Anandtech or anywhere else. I just came back from Circuit City and this was the best looking 20" or 22" I saw in the store. At $279, the price seemed good, too. I'm just wondering if it...

That seems like sound logic. Thanks a lot for the good info!

Cool. This sounds like a pretty cheap upgrade. I was reading on the articles section of the site and it seems as though the consensus there is that the Intel C2D chips are the best right now (and seem to overclock very well, too). For only a $50 or so difference in chips, why is everyone...

Hmmm... that's pretty tempting. It looks like I can get that processor for $109 and a mobo for $90. Since I was going to have to spend about that much for the video card anyway, that means the only additional cost is the $109 CPU. That would allow me to buy DDR2 RAM and gives me the ability...

I have a P4 2.6 GHz (800 MHz FSB ? overclocked to 3.1 GHz) on an 865PE MB and am trying to figure out if an upgrade is worthwhile. I desperately need more RAM and plan to buy a new video card (currently have GF4 Ti4200) for DVI out and Vista support. Since my MB doesn?t support PCI-E or DDR2...

When did you place your order and which ones did you get??

Well, so much for that hot deal. My order was cancelled because the A-Wires are no longer available:

I also got the A-Wires for $79.99. Amazing price for sunglasses that aren't normally discounted even online! BTW, the straight jacket is also unavailable.
