    LG 48CX

    I was having the same issues as the rest of you. Discovered you have to turn off "Fast Startup" in Windows 10 - https://www.windowscentral.com/how-disable-windows-10-fast-startup With HDMI 2.1, it seems to take longer for the handshake to occur. Booted up normally with TV on first try after...

    The [H] RTX 3080 owners thread.

    Received my EVGA queue notification Thursday evening for a 3080 FTW3 Ultra. I ordered immediately and it shipped out yesterday. I signed up on 9/17 at 9:01 AM PST.

    MSI Gaming N780 GeForce GTX 780 3GB $490 After $10 MIR

    Hah! Yeah. When it gets here and if the games aren't in the box, I'll probably be contacting them. When I bought the card, it said in green on the item page that it included 3 free games. It didn't add them to my cart when I checked out though, so I don't think the certificates or whatever...

    MSI Gaming N780 GeForce GTX 780 3GB $490 After $10 MIR

    Mine was the same, but just recently changed to "shipped." I agree it definitely took longer than I can ever remember it taking for Newegg. Was worried they ran out of stock or something.

    r9 290 for $399

    Add me to the list. I put my Sapphire 7950 up yesterday for $360 with $15 shipping and it sold much faster than I was expecting. I'm now kicking myself for not putting a higher BIN price. Ah well...paid for most of the GTX 780 I have coming.

    MSI Gaming N780 GeForce GTX 780 3GB $490 After $10 MIR

    Also worked for me, and I'm doing the same thing...selling my 7950. For those interested, it's showing in-stock at 6:00 a.m. Central and now has a $20 rebate.

    LG 55" LED 1080p 120Hz HDTV 55LN5100 $500

    Got this TV all set up. While the Panasonic plasma I have definitely offers a better overall picture (especially the blacks), this LG is fantastic for the money. In fact, regardless of the price, it just offers a great picture period. If you don't need all the "smart" features and they offer...

    Dell Latitude 3300 13.3" Core i5, 4GB, 64GB SSD Laptop $350

    I've ordered two "refurbished" laptops from the business outlet and both looked new when I received them, and are in fact still going strong. They're a solid deal.

    Alienware MX11 for school?

    Thanks guys!...I hadn't even thought about looking at the business laptops. I wound up ordering a Vostro 3300 from their business outlet, which fits the bill perfectly with a 13-inch matte screen, a weight of 4 1/2 pounds, Core i5, 4GB RAM, 320GB 7200 hard drive, dedicated 512 MB Nvidia 310M...

    Alienware MX11 for school?

    Hi all. I'm on the hunt for a smallish laptop for school. I'm of course looking for the most bang for the buck in a smaller package that's easier to lug around. Does the MX11 fit the bill? It's a little smaller than I was originally wanting (originally looking at 13-14" laptops). Is it hard...
