    Hot? HP 1035n Netbook - $404 at Circuit City B&M - YMMV

    Thoughts about the HP 1035NR versus the HP Mini 2140? (http://reviews.cnet.com/laptop...-3121_7-33485023.html) The 2140 seems nicer but a bit more expensive.

    Hot? HP 1035n Netbook - $404 at Circuit City B&M - YMMV

    How is the HP 1035NR for $404 plus tax a good deal? It retails on HP's website with free shipping for $449. And you can get it on Amazon for $447 with no tax and free shipping: http://www.amazon.com/1035NR-1...&qid=1233603095&sr=8-1

    Legendary for PS3/XBOX only $28.99 @ DDD.com

    By "bad press" you mean "universally bad reviews from every major gaming publication"? http://www.metacritic.com/game.../legendary?q=Legendary As far as I'm concerned, you would be retarded to spend $28.99 (+tax and shipping?) for a game with a metacritic average of 48.

    [Retired] The LCD Thread

    So I got the DoubleSight DS-263N, and it looks great! But how can I make sure I got one with the polarization filter? I got it from newegg so it should have the polarization filter, but I just want to make sure.

    20 Eidos PC Games--$99 on Steam - Lots of good ones!

    I don't think this is a good deal at all. Why pay $100 for 20 mediocre old games when you can get 3 outstanding games for that much. Plus compare it to the Orange Box which you can get for $30. The Orange Box comes with 5 outstanding games that are all better and newer than anything on the...

    850W versus 1000W?

    Ok, my final decision comes down to the PCP&C Turbo-Cool 860 versus the the Antec TruePower Quattro 1000. The Turbo-Cool 860 will cost about $250 and the Quattro 1000 will cost about $200, and both will fit into my case. Any thoughts for which PSU I should get for a high-end gaming system...

    850W versus 1000W?

    Bump for JohnnyGuru. If it has his approval, I'm going to pull the trigger on the Antec TruePower Quattro 1000.

    850W versus 1000W?

    Sorry, I'm sort of a noob when it comes to PSU's. Are you recommending a 1000W PSU? I know that dual 8800 Ultras aren't really a good investment. But I already have one 8800 ultra that I got almost a year ago. So I want to make use of it.

    850W versus 1000W?

    Thanks for the advice. What do you think about getting the Antec TruePower Quattro 1000? It's "only" 210 on newegg, compared to the much more expensive Turbo-Cool 1000 which runs $480 on newegg. Or is there another 1000W PSU you would recommend?

    850W versus 1000W?

    I'm in the process of building a high end gaming system (Quad Core CPU overclocked to 4.0 gigahertz, 790i ultra mobo, Dual SLI 8800 Ultras, etc.) and I'm looking at power supplies. Why question is: will a 860W PSU always meet my needs? Why might a 1000W PSU ever be necessary, or is that just...

    Best Case on the Market for High End Gaming System?

    What are candidates for being the absolute best case on the market for a high end gaming system? My budget is pretty flexible, and I'm willing to spend up to $300 (and possibly a bit more). I don't know much about cases, but here are a couple I've been considering: Antec 1200...

    BFG ES-800 PSU for $69.99 ( after MIR) + Free Freight

    jonnyGURU, what case what high wattage PSU would you recommend for the newly released Antec Twelve Hundred? (http://www.newegg.com/Product/...ec%2bTwelve%2bHundred) I've heard fantastic things about the Turbo-Cool 860 PSU, and was about to get it. But then I heard that it might not fit with...

    Z-5500 Digital 5.1 Speakers @ DELL 199.99

    So the Klipsh ultras are an analog setup but the Logitechs are digital? Are these Logitechs pretty much the best PC speakers on the market? I'm surprised there hasn't been any new speakers for a few years. I guess it isn't an emerging area of technology.

    [Dead] E8400 for ~178 shipped

    The Q9650 is $1,000. Doesn't everyone say it's a huge ripoff? I'm actually thinking of getting it.

    [Dead] E8400 for ~178 shipped

    I want to see a deal for the E8500! The E8500 isn't even that expensive, so I want to splurge for the faster component :)

    E8400 Dual Core Processor for $140?

    Basic question that might be stupid: can you run SLI dual video cards with an E8400? Or does that require a quad core processor?

    What makes the MuVo different or better than the other Zen models? Like wouldn't the Zen V Plus always be a better choice?

    Looks like a steal, thanks for posting this Section8. I got a Zen V Plus Refurnished 2GB for just $25. Then I also got a Zen V armband, which was also about half off for just $10, so I can use it for running. All together, just $38 bucks including tax and free shipping.

    So is the "Zen" that much better than the "Zen V Plus"? Maybe I'll get both.

    Crono, you mean you got the Zen V 1GB? The newest model, I think just called the "Zen" only comes in 4GB and 8GB.

    Is 84 bucks for a refurb zen 8 gig a good deal? It seemed like the zen got good reviews ... how does it compare to the Zune or Ipod Nano?

    All right, you've got me sold. I'm going to get the DoubleSight :) How can I make sure that I get one with the A-TW polarizer? Should I order the one from NewEgg as soon as they get it in stock?

    What exactly is an nForce motherboard? Is it any motherboard that uses the nvidia chipset? I had my eye on this bad boy, the The Asus Striker II Extreme I hope it's compatible.

    Pretty Warm: Razer Tarantula $42 bucks @ CC B&M

    Yeah, thanks for recommending it. I can't wait to pick it up. At the very least, I can keep my G15 at home for Team Fortress 2 and use the Tarantula at the office cranking away at documents :)

    Western Digital WD6400AAKS 640GB 7200

    I think the Samsung is supposedly better. There was an article comparing a bunch of harddrives a while back. I don't think is the one, but it has some relevant info: http://www.tomshardware.com/re...es-a-bang,1730-11.html

    Samsung F1 750GB - $125 shipped

    Just got one. What's the best way to use these bad boys? Get 2 of them and use them in a RAID 0 configuration? 3 of them in RAID 5? Maybe I'll get a velociraptor too use that as my primary HD (with better performance) and the Samsung as my secondary harddrive (with more storage).

    Pretty Warm: Razer Tarantula $42 bucks @ CC B&M

    Just ordered one. I don't really need a gaming keyboard (I already have a second generation Logitech G15), but I absolutely love Razer's mouse products, so I'll give it a shot. I've heard that the keys feel wonderful.

    Razer Deathadder Mouse, $21, CC B&M

    Yeah, excuse me then. I was recently in the market for a new mouse for serious gaming. I tried to do as much research as possible, and the DeathAdder was the mouse I ended up choosing (over more expensive Razer and Logitech models).
