Nevermind.

I bought a Fractal R4 earlier this week from Newegg. When I took it out of the box, I was surprised to see that there was some sort of deformity in the top panel that kept it from sitting flush. The rear fan mount bows out; if you press it, it will bow right back up. If you press inward toward...

Looks like this deal is back again: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811352020 If I can ever decide between this, the Corsair 550D, and the Nanoxia DS1, I might actually jump on it :D

So Christmas is almost here and I've been asked repeatedly to add something nice-ish to my list. I've already got a pair of Beyer DT880s which I'm fairly happy with (other than the earpads being a little discolored) but I've been very curious for a long time about the prospect of upgrading to...

If you saw my previous post, you know that I've been looking for a good TV tuner for the computer in my sig. I finally decided that the Asus EHD3-100 looked like a pretty good value since it includes an FM tuner and, from what people say, a very nice remote control. But then I popped open my...

I'm looking for a PCI-e 1x tuner card and I came across a couple of different models on Newegg that seem to be popular. One of them, the Asus PE9400, a "combo tuner", is just $60 AR and seems like it would be an excellent value. It comes with an MCE remote, an IR receiver with two control...

I've had a lot of trouble with Seasonic's power supplies. You can read over my complete experience here if you're curious: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1458800 The short version is this: I've gone through a bunch of replacements. The most recent one causes reboots and emits a foul...

I'm not impressed at all with Seasonic's customer support. Or their quality, for that matter. I bought a Seasonic S12 500W way back when Conroe first came out. It worked flawlessly for years, but the fan started going bad and it would make a racket unless you pressed down on it. The noise got...

These TN displays are really pissing me off. I can't seem to find one that has viewing angles to suit me. Looking to spend ~$200 at most...I seem to remember them going on sale for about that price a little while ago, so I don't think that's too unreasonable. Some of the stuff I'd be willing to...

I play a lot of TF2 and CoD4. I was having a little trouble with slowdown at certain points in-game, so I decided to invest in some cheap upgrades with the hope that I wouldn't have to replace everything. I got a newer hard drive that's about twice as fast, upgraded to 4GB RAM from 2GB...

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823126043 I seem to remember this deal coming up before. Looks like it's back! I've tried this particular keyboard at Best Buy a few times before and I was very impressed with the feel. I think it's very overpriced at its usual price of...

I've been using an Acer 1722 for years now. It's nothing special...8ms response time, 1280x1024, 700:1 contrast. I really like the widescreen aspect of my laptop, so I decided to get one for my desktop. Here's the catch, though - a monitor is one thing that I wouldn't buy from the Internet...

EDIT: My mistake, nevermind.

I've pushed my processor up to 3.2 GHz and upgraded from 2gb to 4gb of RAM but my system still feels somewhat slow. I notice a lot of the time that the delays in launching programs, starting up, et cetera seem to be some issue with the hard drive, a single WD2500KS. I can hear it grinding away...

The CMI8788-based Razer AC-1 I had been using gave up the ghost recently and I'm looking for something better to replace it with. It wasn't a bad card compared to onboard audio, don't get me wrong, but I think I can probably do better than trying to hunt down another one as a replacement. I've...

So I decided to pick up a CM Storm Scout to replace my aging Lian Li PC-7b Plus II. I always hear that "once you go Lian Li, you'll never go back". For $95 shipped, though, I think the Storm Scout offers a far better value than anything else in its price range. It's a spectacular case and I...

It started off innocently enough. I just wanted to buy a decent keyboard and I knew that they didn't make them like they used to, so I picked up an original Microsoft Natural keyboard. Then a quiet-touch Model M. Pretty soon, I was studying the different types of switches here and plotting the...

I bought this keyboard from eBay just recently as new old stock. The guy was selling it at a discount because he didn't have the box. Here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290322627213&viewitem= &sspagename=ADME%3AX%3ARTQ%3AUS%3A1123&salenotsupp orted I could tell...

It's simple, really - I'm tired of using ambidextrous mice and I want something that's more comfortable to use. Oh, and I don't want to pay a fortune. Here are a few listings I saw on eBay for southpaw mice in order from cheapest to most expensive... Cherry Ergo Shark MiniCute Veritcal Mouse...

System specs are in my sig. Considering I only game at 1280x1024, it's been pretty good at handling what I can throw at it thus far. I usually just play Quake Wars and, on occasion, Battlefield 2. I picked up a copy of Unreal Tournament 3 a few days ago at Target since it was only $20. It...

I've been looking around for a good deal on a CMI8788-based sound card to replace my X-Fi since it won't work under Linux. I don't have a lot of money to spend, ~$100, and one of the cheaper CMI8788 cards like the BGears B-Enspirer or the Sondigo Inferno seemed to be my best options. Hell, I'd...

For years, I put up with Windows OS' crap, but there's only so much one guy can take. After attempting to patch UxTheme.dll on Windows XP somehow led to the complete corruption of my hard drive through a bizarre series of events, I had had enough and decided to get rid of Windows-anything for...
