    EVGA GeForce GTX260 Core 216-55nm $149.99 AR @ eWiz

    I got mine today, a day earlier than expected. The model is the 896-p3-1255-ar but in the nvidia control panel the clock speeds are showing as 626/1053 which is stock for the superclocked version. This thing is huge, I had to move my waterpump and it still barely fits.

    EVGA GeForce GTX260 Core 216-55nm $149.99 AR @ eWiz

    I'm in for one, the coupon code BOGOBUY10 still works for the $10 off. Came out to be $170 shipped. Great deal, should be quite an upgrade from my 7900 GTO.

    Forza 2 Demo out tonight!

    I feel the same as what most people have said, the AI isn't awesome and the graphics are seriously disappointing. To me it feels like just like Forza 1 and the graphics are similar when played on xbox360. I have been spoiled by the in car view in PGR3 and GTR2 also, so not having a full in car...

    Any PC racing games = to or > than the 360's PGR3?

    +1, it is more arcadey and accessible than the GTR series. Toca 3 has any type of racing you can think of also, including lawn mower. To me the physics/handling feel somewhat like Forza on Xbox if I had to compare it to a console game. Great fun though and can be had for $10 at...

    Do most games support WSXGA? And what if they don't?

    FEAR combat 1.08 added support for 1680x1050(and other 16:10 resolutions) without chaning any config files. States it in the readme.

    2x 240CD wallets for $13

    These look like the same ones that geeks.com sells for cheap, if so they are awful and pretty much unusable. The individual cd sleeves are annoying as hell to get media in and out of and it is really flimsy. You definitely wouldn't want to fill this to capacity.

    I am really miffed!

    Just suck it up and take the card back to the store and bitch and moan and get a free gift card or something. It wouldn't leave me with a good feeling if I RMA'd a brand new card and had it "fixed" or got a used card back from the RMA. Same thing happened to me a while back when 6600gts had...

    college concerns

    Not exactly how it works, you can't just get into the college without having the right credentials. There is no slacker major that has relaxed standards of admission. When you apply to the school you pick a major and are accepted into that major's department. Some departments have higher...

    college concerns

    I see what you are saying, doesn't really matter but my school doesn't have as big of a loophole with people transferring because when you change majors you have to basically apply to the school you want to go into, and each one has specific requirements for accepting internal people, usually...

    2 questions about Best Buy's BF

    You guys should say what city this was in when you are talking about how early you got there and how many people were in line, it will give newcomers a better frame of reference.

    college concerns

    Lots of schools make you apply to a certain "school", for instance the school of engineering, behavioral science, etc. I had to do this and I go to a public state school. It isn't retarded, different departments have different requirements and standards that need to be met in order to be a...

    PlayStation 3 lacks upscaler for 1080i

    It doesn't matter what "scalar" the ps3 has in almost all cases because your TV is going to convert the image or scale it to it's native resolution. The only case this would matter is if your tv's native resolution happens to be 1080i(can't think of any off the top of my head although there may...

    college concerns

    Haha, small world indeed, I graduate from Clemson in May with a BS in CIS, which is pretty much the same thing as CS but I have a dedicated business/management minor instead of picking an emphasis area of my choice. I feel I have gotten a more well rounded education going this route rather than...

    walmarts in my area have 650pc zip ties in a plastic tube in different sizes: 150 8" and 500 4" all color coded and it is definitely less than $10, i think it is $6. Good deal for those without the other store in their area. These are in the automotive section btw.

    7900 GTO now out for $250 - 7900 GTX in disguise?

    Mine is working great so far, 101xx in 3dmark 05 default clocks on core and mem, this thing runs cooler and noticeably quiter than my evga 7800gt co, I'm only seeing 40 *c idle. Oblivion is so much smoother now with HDR now at 1280x1024.

    Toshiba M115-S3094 1.6GHz Core Duo 14" Laptop $599 @ CircuitCity & Bestbuy on Oct 1s

    has anyone price matched the BB price at circuitcity? They should take off 10% of the $150 difference which his $15 and get the rebate on top of that. That would be a sweet deal.
