    XFX Headset $0.24 AR + AGCO

    i ordered it on the 6th (Sunday) and chose budget free shipping. They still haven't shipped it out yet. is this normal or does this mean i am placed on order because it's out of stock. i don't think it was out of stock when i ordered it though.

    8800GT coolers....

    haha, the centurion5 gets a little cramped sometimes, but the cooler is the best. thanks. well, not completely. what what happened was that my pci-e cable is way too stiff, and caused it to bend down. but it probably is tied too tight too.

    Just to let some people know. It IS possible to put 2 x 120mm fans on the S1, if you had that question. My idle is 32 and load is 40

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    what i find that gives me the best color is to set the gamma setting in your advanced image settings under your graphics card to .75 color correction, gamma .75.

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    I don't see why everyone else thinks this monitor is crap for the xbox360 the truth is, it's actually works very well (although doesnt' disply 1080p until MS updates the res) I use 1360 x 768 or you could also use 1280x768 and they both look spectacular

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    I forgot to mention though, the wierdest part was that the return address on the box was where i normally recieve stuff from NewEgg. Whittier California I got S Panel, 0 dead pixels. ;)

    Sceptre x22wg-Gamer 22" LCD

    I used this monitor for both xbox and PC. Since Day 1 i had wierd problem with DVI port (even though minor) When i switched to VGA to play 360 for like an hour, and i want to switch back to PC, it seems as the DVI port dies. And I tried everything, but still shows signal. Until i restart...

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    That is very wierd because I live in Southern California and I ordered from NewEgg. However, they sent me one from TN warehouse (mad cuz took 3 days instead of usual 1) I still got the S Panel though.

    Sceptre x22wg-Gamer 22" LCD

    this is def a very good monitor, however i woudln't go as far as saying it's true 1080p. it's probably the best one you could get under 400 bucks though. if you could save like 100 bucks more you should get the Dell24". it is much better and can support 1080i, which is probably better...

    Samsung 226BW 22": 3000:1 Contrast, 2ms response time

    Recieved from Newegg. Usuall Crap UPS style shipping, but contents on the inside are superb. Except Condition, ZERO dead pixels. Backlight bleeding is much better compared to my Sceptre X22 Gamer, which wasn't that bad to begin with. Still wish the 226 has HDMI port. Newegg Gave me the S...

    Sceptre x22wg-Gamer 22" LCD

    I recieved my Monitor today from Costco. Very sharp (DVI, haven't tested VGA) Backlight bleeding is actually alright, I was just expecting a lot worse, or I was extremely lucky. The stand... It's actually not that bad. I mean sure it's made of pure plastic, but it certainly does the job. By no...

    what made you decide to take the viewsonic over the dell 22" or the Asus 22" that costco also had.
