Oh my god, we’re having a fire! ...sale. Oh, the burning! It burns me!

I have the newer logitech G5 (the blue one) and when I try using it on my new computer, every minute or so it'll shut itself off and turn itself back on for a second, resetting my dpi setting. Sometime's it'll get so bad that it shuts off every couple seconds for a second at a time and the only...

Does the SG05 have more clearance than the SG01, or should this work in there too? I wanted to get the GeminII S for the SG01, but I was afraid it wouldn't fit and just went with the Scythe Shuriken. Maybe I'll put a larger fan on it blowing upwards and see how that works.

You make it sound like XBL is the reason consoles are so successful. It sounds like you're the one that doesn't realize why the mass market has attached itself to consoles. Sure it's a selling point of the 360, but PS3's selling point is hardly the community, and the Wii, despite being the best...

Newegg is pretty amazing. I split a recent order between Newegg and ZZF, and even though ZZF had free shipping, Newegg's order arrived before ZZF even shipped my order out of their warehouse.

I just started a new build and ordered the parts on sunday. Whatever I couldn't find on ZZF i got off of newegg (still with 6% cash back, not too bad), and the newegg parts came before ZZF even shipped out my order. They did ship it out yesterday, but I'm on the east coast and ZZF only ships out...

The missile launchers were definitely the only way to do the strategy missions, but even then I felt like they were the least fun part of the game

Thanks for everyone's help. I went ahead and ordered the same system as what I listed above except I replaced the Phenom II 945 with the 955 BE. Thankfully I found most of the expensive parts on ZipZoomFly and took advantage of their 20% cashback, so I felt a small upgrade was in order, and even...

Are the budget cards usually released right away? If it comes out next month and the cards are all 300-400$, I probably shouldn't hold my breath. I can get the 4890 right now for a little less than $170 after the bing cashback. If anything, would I be right in saying that the 4890 could hold...

Is it a good idea to stick with the 945 95w if I'm going the SFF route? I probs won't be overclocking in the near future, and would the difference in wattage lower the heat enough to be valuable?

If I'm trying to build a new computer within the next week or so, is this reason enough to hold off on buying a video card? I'm going to be putting it all into a SFF, and was originally planning to go with the 4890. The new cards will probably be beyond expensive though, and I would still get...

I've come to terms with getting the sg01, and I'll probably be ordering somewhere in the region of next week. This is my build so far: Are there any places I could squeeze out better price/performance? The cost has gone a bit over what I originally wanted to spend, but I feel like it's not...

It looks like the CM GeminII would fit in the SG01, with 78mm of clearance and the GeminII being 62mm in height. Would the NT06 route cool better with a fan fitted on the bottom blowing up vs the GeminII competing for air with the PSU? If they have comparable performance I'd probably lean...
