Hey guys, I've been reading over this thread and I decided to "borrow" some phrases, ideas and suggestions for my resume. ;) Here's what I came up with, I'd love to get some feedback... Cover Letter Resume Please be as brutal as possible :D Thanks in advance.

I'd recommend the Fractal Design Define R3, it has Corsair style cable management and sound dampening material throughout the case... http://www.pureoverclock.com/article1131.html It costs around ~$100 here in Canada (should be cheaper in the states) so it's a decent case for the money.

^ It's listed on n c i x as well, AP181's are included as standard http://www.n c i x.com/products/index.php?sku=56972&vpn=RV02B-EW&manufacture=Silverstone%20Technology

This is my Sandy Bridge/Bulldozer case, it's absolutely perfect for me, a roomy mid tower with excellent cable management, I can't wait!! :D I just have a question about the 200mm fans, if I feel they're too loud or the LED's too bright, could I replace them with smaller, quieter ones like...

you can order it here... http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/products/Displays/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=bsd&cs=04&sku=320-7825 the Canadian site has more info, specifically mentions IPS when you look at the specs...

HP LP2065 20" 1600x1200 S-IPS http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824176053&Tpk=lp2065

I'd go for the HP LP2275w 22" PVA http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824176098&Tpk=lp2275w http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en/sm/WF05a/382087-382087-64283-72270-444767-3648453.html There's a $30 mail-in rebate as well, which ends Oct. 31...

Acer has just released 19" and 22" LED backlit monitors, unfortunately they're both TN... http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/news_archive/11.htm#acer_led

I just checked mine and unfortunately I have the same old fw as others... Model: L245WP 06/11/02 V 1.440 There's no point in exchanging it because I doubt they have any updated ones in stock... I think I'm gonna wait for the Samsung 245T or get the Dell.

I just got one of these on Monday, and I too have a buzzing/humming sound when using sRGB and brightness lower than 100, except when its between 30-40 the humming disappears but the buzzing is still there when i get close to the back of it, I have it set to 32. The manufacturing date is March...

the HDMI-DVI cable thats included looks like this... http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10231&cs_id=1023104&p_id=2404&seq=1&format=1#largeimage here are the cables that come with it...

I just ordered the same monitor from Futureshop, $495+tax, I can't wait to pick it up tomorrow! From what i've read the L246WP-BN is the part # for B&M retailers while the L245WP-BN is for online retailers.

I'm planning to use the above but I was wondering if I would be able to mount it vertically, meaning blowing air towards the back of the case instead of horizontally towards the PSU. I will also be using 4GB (4x1GB) of ram and if I am able to mount it vertically does anyone know if the fan...

yes
