    34" 21:9 UltraWide Displays (3440x1440) - LG UM95/UM65 & Dell U3415W

    My understanding is that the free shipping back only applies to items with the premier icon next to it. So my concern is if the backlight bleed is bad it will cost around $40ish to send it back.

    34" 21:9 UltraWide Displays (3440x1440) - LG UM95/UM65 & Dell U3415W

    I am a premier member, but the premier icon is not there for this item and the usually free 3 day shipping option costs money. I'm wondering how returns are handled, is I hand to pay to ship back

    How are returnes done with new egg with this item? I am thinking about getting it, but if backlight bleed is too bad I will want to return it. Does new egg pay shipping back or does the customer?

    Is 4790k worth upgrade over 3570k?

    Im looking at the $600 Samsung U28D590D from Best Buy. That way if for some reason there is a problem, easy returns. My goal for the monitor is to get into 4k gaming and also view my digital pictures in a higher res monitor. I would love to do that, but the only way I can seem to do that is...

    Is 4790k worth upgrade over 3570k?

    Next month im getting a 4k monitor and a GTX 980. I plan on having two HDD's; 1 set up for my current 1080 monitor for 1080 gaming and 1 for my new 4k monitor for 4k gaming. My question is while I have a few extra bucks, is it worth $700 to go from my 3570k @ 4.3ghz, 32gb ram @ 1600mhz, and...

    Did my video card go bad? (bad textures and game crash)

    I took it apart and replaced the thermal grease with AS5. With a memory under clock of about 20% and a fan speed of about 60% it works but slower (i did make sure the thermal tape was on right). I am going to have to use it like this for now, and when Nvidia comes out with the new DX11...

    Did my video card go bad? (bad textures and game crash)

    I got my GTX260 new in November and have not had trouble till the last few days. At first there would just be a few yellow static-like dots when I launched a game (resident evil 5, ect...) and then bad textures. A few restarts later and it worked. Now any game launched will crash when the...

    Can a radiator be mounted upside down-or doesnt it matter?

    I havent been watching the temps. I didnt put it in the front of the case because I didnt have any room. In front of the computer I have a switch, and at the inside of the front I have some harddrives, the resivor, plus some wires. Its working out pretty good this way so far.

    Can a radiator be mounted upside down-or doesnt it matter?

    Heres a few pictures; The only problem I had installing it was trying to route the hoses so they look nice. Having the radiator mounted upside down left alot of air in the hoses, but I left the resivor open for a few hours and most of it's out. Its a very good kit but I would only recommend it...

    Can a radiator be mounted upside down-or doesnt it matter?

    I got it from voyeurmods.com as well as two case windows. I went with the USPS shipping for $8 extra, but I placed the order Sunday and got it Wednesday - seems like a good store. Im going to install it today (saturday) and will post some pictures. The hardest part is making it look nice and...

    Can a radiator be mounted upside down-or doesnt it matter?

    Thanks. I was thinking about mounting the pump sideways outside of the case under the radiator, unless inlet/discharge at a different position would be a problem. If not, how much noise does a pump make? Im planning on running it at 2550rpm to start out with but it can go up to 4800rpm.

    Can a radiator be mounted upside down-or doesnt it matter?

    Can a radiator be mounted upside down-or doesnt it matter? I have the Swiftech Apex and finding the hardest part is trying to mount the raditor on the back of the case. I found it would work pretty good if I could turn it upside down and have the hoses at the bottom. Heres a picture of how...
