I've got mine (white) on pre-order in the UK - it was estimated to be in stock today but it's slipped back to next week now. This is very unlike me but I've recently bought a new Samsung tv with a white bezel and the rig (which is used mainly for LAN gaming) will now also do media duties...

Logitech Wireless Touch Keyboard K400 for me. I tend to just rest it on my lap, I don't really game with it though. In earlier times, I did have an HTPC/gaming rig on a tv and I had what I called 'the entertainment plank' for that which was a fairly wide plank of wood with a mouse mat glued to...

Do you mean a Hackintosh? InsanelyMac and TonyMacx86 are probably worth a look if that's what you're after..

Sanity is overrated anyway! :D I tend to like the brightness pretty high on my tvs but not *that* bright, obviously but certainly in the higher reaches as a rule. Anyway, when I got to the LAN last night I'd set it to Movie mode previously and it was at 100% brightness as default but time was...

oqvist & Serzhas: I'm not using 3D with it, I'm afraid and no real plans to do so - I don't have a copy of Resident Evil 5, either, sorry chaps. I am due at a LAN tonight and will be using the monitor so I can report back over the weekend. I'm not a 100% brightness fan, generally. I set the...

I got one yesterday (from Scan) and found this thread today! :o I have to say though, all seems pretty good with mine, it reminds me of a (smaller, obviously) version of my HP LP3065 which it's currently sitting next to. I've just gone into the service menu and the firmware would seem to be...

My only experience with EVGA CS has been very negative indeed. So much so, I swore I would never buy another of their products and I've stuck with that since (my experience was 2007ish IIRC.) Maybe I was just unlucky, as most people seem to think they're very good but I certainly wouldn't give...

Exactly the same experience here: temperatures were pretty much identical with AS5 and the Corsair gunk for me too.

I've got a dead 8800 GTX I may give this a try with.. I'm not hopeful because it seems very dead but hey, worth a shot! Nice one!! :-)

Good work! :)

I use the TT Dual Orb on my GTX cards - it saves a fair bit of space.

Good work fella! :)

Ditto here - both set-up and case wise. :)

Actually... I kinda like it...:cool:

I carry my Lanbox in my Sugo bag anyway! :D I find the handle very useful for moving around but I'm a clumsy git so the bag's always the best bet!
