    New monitor - Auria 27" 2560x1440

    Great deal on this @ Microcenter @399. I wasn't too hip on the stand, so I used the stand from the Gateway FDP24 it was replacing. Perfect fit and height adjustment is just right. THe only slight issues for me is the OSD aren't great and the screen is semi reflective, but it looks great on...

    Need 27" monitor reco

    Happy New Year! So I am looking for a 27" monitor, no more than $400. Any mfg I should stay away from? I don't need 3d, but HDMI would be nice (going to stick a Mac Mini on that port) and DVI. Lots of players out there I just need direction in which to steer away from bad ones. I...

    Post Your Mac Setup!

    I see a lot of IKEA Galant desks here. Simple yet sturdy and customizable. Another bit on the SSD route for MBPs. I thought about getting one for my MBP, but opted for the 500 GB 7200 RPM drive instead. Faster than the 5400, but more room than the SSD w/o spending a fortune. I couldn't carry...

    Age old question: Nvidia or AMD?

    I am currently running a GTX 460 and apparently BF3 won't play on it. So if I want to upgrade my card, which road to go down? I haven't used an ATI card since having a 1600XT. I would like to keep under 300. Not sure what models to get. Any pro tips? Thanks.

    omg the 950 is a beast

    sure it's nice to upgrade, but there are other factors too. i "upgraded" to the 950 from a 920 only because the wife's motherboard took a dump. i had a x58 board lying around, dropped the 920 in it and put the 950 in my sabertooth. i picked up the 950 on cheap at microcenter for like 199. in the...

    i7 950 Overclock thread
