Here are some pictures of the mouse pads I received along with the originals. I could not get the actual brightness of the pads with my camera so add quite a bit of intensity to them. In fact, the pad with JA is really a strong white background and her skin is quite golden. It is far closer to...
I'm in for 2 of them and I don't even use a mouse pad. :D I've got a great picture of Jessica Alba that fits perfectly. Now I get to glide my mouse over her. :P Cheap thrills. Thanks for the post even if it was pure spam.
If you are a member of AAA (cars, no dislexic alcoholics) you can get a further 6% off on the price. You get the coupon online at AAA. However, when you enter it into the final order with Dell it will not take so you have to call the order in. It took some moving around to different departments...
Mine is used fanless and the heatsink is on the top of the card. It is on a single 7950GT. If you were running two cards you would have to put one on top and the second on the bottom. The heatsink is quite large and sticks up/down a ways from the card itself. I can see that if you do add a fan...
MichaelD, while doing a search for the Artic Cooling Freezer Pro 7 I came across your thread regarding your system build. I have the same case and the same MB. Three quick questions? Are you happy with the new heatsink? I am not a super OCer and just really want something cheap and efficient for...
As a CA resident I too am sick of being screwed over on sales tax on some sites while others get the list price. I love NewEgg but when you add in 7.25% they are no longer always the cheapest. Unfortunately, no one else really has the selection that they do all in one place. Plus, their service...
I've had mine almost 3 years now and I love them. One thing I notice on user comments on New Egg is that people who buy Klipsch talk about how musical the speakers sound while those who buy Logitech talk about how their room shakes because of the bass.
Just now came across your question while looking for something. I bought this tuner at a promotion about a month ago at Frys. When I get my rebate I'll know whether to smile or not. :) Based on what I had read after searching around I decided not to use the CD that comes in the package for my...
I have an OCZ 700 in my P180B. The 4/8 pin will reach the upper left corner running it across the MB. I plan on getting an extension and running along the side. The only complaint I have about this combo is that the cables are quite stiff and the case is really not very roomy considering its...
I have a 180B and the final choice came down to it or the 900. The 900 was what I really wanted, since I like LEDs, but I couldn't deal with the hassles of all the screws to install and/or remove a hard drive. I test drove one and that was the deal killer. The biggest con of the 180 is the...
Thanks for the quick replies. It's nice to know that other people have had the same problem.
The fan froze again this morning and that was after changing the BIOS Fan Spped Contol to Legacy. I've now turned it to Disable so the fan will hopefully just run at full speed all the time. And I...
Earlier this evening I tried a different application, Core Temp, to read my 6600 processor. It was in the 70s which was more than double what I had been seeing with Speed Fan. I finally took the side cover off and realized that the heatsink fan wasn't even spinning. After hitting the blades a...
Just took the side of the case off. The processor fan wasn't even running. After flicking it a few times with my finger it started up. I have noticed that this fan often does not start up with when everything is powered on. And it will change speeds and sometimes completely stop. Is this normal...
I have a new build with a 6600. P180B, GigabyteP-DS3, and Corsair 6400. Stock fan. No overclocking I was using SpeedFan to check my temps and thought things were great. 25-34. And then I read that neither it nor the MB BIOS read the actual chip so I downloaded Core Temp. Yikes. It is showing 75...
I got one of these from CompUSA on BF. It's a very nice board for $20 but I partially agree with the person about it being hard to see the keys at night. The real problem is the top rows with the 3rd row (qwerty etc.) being so so. It has to do with the viewing angle of the board as it sits. You...
Welcome to the club. I have two of these drives, one purchased in Sept. and one last week. Both were from Frys B&M. Both make a very loud grinding sound when being accessed. I tired to return the second one to Frys and guess what? The p/n and model number on the outside of the box on the sticker...
Felony, that is the memory that I bought. It has gone up $9 in the last week or so but the board has come down $15. Go figure.
Redhawk, thanks for the help in finding the "hidden" BIOS settings. The entire list of options look pretty intense for someone like me who has never OC'd. I tried...
Felony, I just finished building a new system the day before yesterday with this board. Mine came from NewEgg and it had BIOS version 7 on it. I went with 2 GBs of Corsair 6400 memory 5-5-5-12. The system immediately posted with no memory hassles of any kind. I haven't tried overclocking...
I just came across a thread about this on the Logitech forums. Amazon has a REALLY good deal on the 5400s right now. ($187.89 OTD AR) However, from what I had read from different users the 5400s seem to have more problems than the 5500s. The are lots of complaints regarding the rear speakers...
Zap, I truly feel for you. DHL dropped my box off several hours ago and, yes, it was well sealed but, more important, it was full of goodies. Someone dropped the ball in shipping on yours. The weight of the package alone should have rung a bell. Don't waste your time trying to phone them since...
Not to be a thread crapper but not only is the price not listed but nothing is said about shipping costs. Or whether sales tax will be charged. On something like this you would probably want the option to use overnight shipping with Fed Express. But not the USPS who might end up seizing your...
I looked seriously at all three cases before finally deciding on the P180. Although you said to ignore costs there is a blue version of the Stacker available for around $100 which is a LOT cheaper than the black/silver versions. Same case, just a different color. Try SVC.com to see if they are...
I just got the P180 and the OCZ GXS 700. The ATX 24 pin line has a little length to spare on my MB (DS3) but the 4/8 pin connector barely makes it running over the top of everything. I am going to buy a 12" extension so I can run it along the edge and make things neater looking. Here's a link...
Thanks a lot! You can never have too many software programs. Getting this directly from the company makes me feel good also. This way I can feel as if I actually bought it instead of my usual method of downloading stuff off the P2P sites. :) And no spyware or trojans to worry about either.
CompUSA had a $20 AR deal last weekend on the Saitek Eclipse so I picked one up. I am really happy with it so far. Besides the nice blue backlighting (off, low, high) the keys have a smooth tight feel to them.
I am in process of setting up my new build. The PS, OCZ GXS 700, has two lines with 3 four pin molexes and a floppy on each. I'm going to have a DVD burner, a floppy drive and 3 pata hard drives along with 3 case fans in an Antech P180. Somewhere I remember reading something about never mixing...
The $100 after $50 rebate is only on Fry's website. The in store price is $200 with no rebate being offered. (Sacramento store) The link to the rebate was working an hour ago but I see it is down again. Tuesday, the 28th, is the last day so maybe they will have the link fixed by then. :)
My...
While I have always like NewEgg here is a site no one seems to mention: Directron.com out of Texas. Most of their prices at first glance are not as good as NewEgg's and they don't have the huge selection. However, for California residents NewEgg is not always the best deal. Example: I just...
I ordered the case this morning (Sunday) and still haven't heard anything from Frys. I guess I expected them to be like NewEgg/Amazon/Directron and send me an immediate email confirming the order. Tuesday's the deadline for the rebate so I better get a sales order by this time tomorrow or I am...
Got a question. This is about speakers, a particular set. I am asking for advice here for the simple reason that I feel most of you seem more in line with how I view/hear music than the general audience who writes about the brand I am considering.
My current set up is with a Santa Cruz...
Here's a question that has probably been asked before but I couldn't find anything. I have an old ATI Radeon 9600Pro. My current monitor is a 17" LCD that I would like to upgrade to something larger. My card lists the resolutions that it supports including the 1600x1200 that is standard for a...
I bought this PS from New Egg last summer during a similar "sale". Everything has run smoothly which is the way you want it. At the lowest fan setting it is very quiet.
Sorry to rain on your parade but this monitor was on sale AR last week at both CompUSA and Best Buy for $249. I bought mine from CompUSA as their line at the cashier was shorter. That was a dumb mistake because their rebates tend to have more problems that BBs. Regarding the monitor, I have...
I bought one of these monitors yesterday at CompUSA's sale. They, BB, and Frys all had it for $249 AR. My initial impression of the monitor was not good as the text was broken and the overall lighting was very uneven. The menu gives you both automatic and manual adjustments but nothing I did...
I'm going to toss out my old lead weight CRT monitor tomorrow and get one of the new thin ones. So far I have seen the following 17" brands/prices being offered for BF:
Samsung (BB & Compusa 249.99 AR)
MAG (BB 189.99 AR)
Liquid Video (CC 199.99 AR)
KDS (OD 199.99 AR)
GEM (Frys 179.99...
Regarding the 17" ProView monitor, I also stopped by my local Staples to check it out. No such animal. They had a 15" and a large pile of 17" CRTs. I asked a salesclerk about the one in the upcoming sale and he knew nothing about it. He claimed their store only carried the 15". Assuming the ad...
I'll second the person who complained about rebate hassles with CompUSA. I don't know if the rebates are going/coming to/from CompUSA itself or from the individual manufacturers. No matter. I completely lost a Mad Dog rebate, waited 6 months on a Fuji one, almost got burned on a Net Gear one...
Only a warm deal? I disagree. This is a great price, especially from a B&M place like Best Buy which isn't known for super low prices. I bought a Seagate from BB earlier in the year that had 2 rebates and both showed up in a reasonable amount of time. The pricing on this hard drive shows...
