Hello all, I keep seeing posts and recommendations about using GPUs to mine part time while not gaming. I have done some research and come up with a preliminary plan:
Wallet: use existing coinbase wallet (used for some experimenting with curecoin) OR create something new with coinomi or...

I went to buy another another 9800GT by EVGA at newegg and they are currently shipping with a free copy of Call of Duty World at War (adds to cart automatically). Thing is, newegg sets up their invoice to charge you for the full game price and then credit it back. This obviously confuses the...

Simple paint job makes it all better. Front vent and floppy drive coated with Flat Black Rustoleum Pro and buffed with a cloth. OK, so I was bored this weekend. This case is the worth every cent of $20.

Better memory specs than the XFX.
Ok, so I've noticed at least four out of five 8800GT's listed at Newegg have stayed in stock since Friday. Of the available options, the cheapest Chaintech sold out.
Was wondering if the Egg had a ton of stock or are folks just not buying because they have one already, are waiting for the...
