I am consider upgrading my i7-3770k to i7-6700k (or 6800k). One of the main reason is my i7-3770 would be a great spare PLEX server. My old plex cannot really handle multiple 720/1080p streams. I could get a dual CPU Xeon server off ebay for good prices. But I could use that money towards a...
I have been out of the loop with processors for a while.. I am running an overclocked i7-3770K.... Never felt the need to upgrade to the 4770/4771.. What/when is the next generation intel processors coming out? Are they going to be haswell-E chips?
Great printer at a nice price (after MIR). (Free Shipping)

I am running out of room in my main computer, so I am looking at 2 particular HDs... I cannot find a lot of benchmarks for them.
I am looking at the 2TB WD Blacks and the 3TB Seagate SV35's...
Which one provides a good balance of performance, reliability, etc?

Okay this last past weekend, I actually had sometime to really shoot with the 5D Mark III. I plan to do a write up on it and maybe compare this between the 5D Mark II and 5D Classic… (maybe even the Nikon D800).
But here are some initial observations. Now keep in mind that this is from...

I have had the Fuji X100 for almost two months. I love this camera, it goes with me everywhere. Much better than carrying my Canon 5DMkII everywhere. To me this has to be one of the best if not the best camera that I have ever owned. But then again I have only owned 14-15 digital cameras and...

This is just a quick test between the Canon 85L f/1.2 and the Sigma 85mm f/1.4. The images were done in jpg and cropped. I used ISO 800, with ambient lighting. The camera was setup on a tripod and triggered remotely.
I found that the Sigma performed admirably against one of the holy trinity...
Well I am in the market for another 30" LCD. I currently use the Dell 3007WFC-HC. I primary will be using this monitor for photoshop/photoediting. Which one do you all like better (I know this will create some debate). Who around here has used both? Which one do you all like better?

I know some of these are done in a Linux Gui. I am trying to make a nice user interface for my kitchen PC. The user portal I am trying to get is something like

or...
What linux distro would you all recommend for a kitchen PC (big/easy user interface). I am using a Epia M 933 with 512DDR. I am playing around with Ubuntu and it is a tad slow, but not to bad. But I really do not want that desktop look. I am looking for something that has a good user...
Currently my system is a Q6600 (oc 3.2ghz) with a 260GTX. I bought a new GTX260 from BB clearance a few months ago to do SLI. I currently do a lot of video editing and photoshoping so if I can save time, it helps since my raw files for photos are 35mb then I convert them to TIFFS so they end...

Okay I am really digging low light wide aperture videos I am getting from my 85mm 1.8. But I need something wide. I am thinking Canon 28mm f/1.8 or Canon 35 f/2. Which of these do you all have and are you happy with them? I especially want to hear from you if you have used them on your 5D Mark...
