Best Buy has Titan Quest for $44.95 and the $10 coupon worked for me so I picked up Titan Quest and also Terminator 2 Special Edition (Metal Case) and Reservoir Dogs Special edition for $46 and change including tax. (The movies were buy one get one free at $7.99).
No the 2005fpw doesnt have component in but if you have a VIVO (video in/video out) video card I assume you can hook up the xbox through your video card.
I got my 2005fpw for $415 shipped from Dell which is only $100 more than the Viewsonic. It came with 1 dead pixel that can only be seen on a pure black background (upper left corner) and minimal backlight bleeding that can only be seen on a pure black background. I moved from a 19 inch dell p990...
No im saying that when they get their shipment, they wont sell it til the day the prices on their flyers go active which I think is usually a Tuesday or Wednesday. They have a article somewhere on theinquirer.net talking about this.
BB will be selling them the day that their flyer sells are effective (Wednesdays?) so they don't go into the fiasco of not having advertised Xbox's like they did on launch day.
Well as for the 2 little black horizontal lines, these are normal on a trinitron monitor (I have the Dell p990 19inch which is a Sony trintron monitor) and are generally only visible on a white background. As for the monitor not working after it said no signal once, sounds like a loose connection.
Josh could you please post some closer pics of this monitor with BF2 running? Ive been looking at this monitor too (I mainly play BF2) and it was either this, the hyundai l90d+, or dell 2005fpw. If I can save $100 I will and go with this over the 2005fpw, I just need some pics on this viewsonic...
Ive had my 500 watt x-connect since December 2004 and paid $100 for it. Its been running strong ever since on both an overclocked Intel Northwood C and AMD 64 Venice core, both with overclocked high end video cards (6800gt and x800xl) and the rails are rock solid according to many software...
Yup Ive had my 500watt Ultra X-Connect for over 6 months now and its been powering two different rigs over the 6 months (Intel & AMD) perfectly fine (both overclocked).
Last time I checked Intel doesnt have a 4-5 ghz chip either and its not always about ghz, its about the architecture and effieciency of the cpu. Go with a 3200+ venice and overclock it to 2.5ghz+
Seems a tad high for a xp120. Ive got my 3000+ venice oced to 2.5ghz with 1.52volts and my temps are about 51 load with a stock like heatsink and fan. Make sure its making good contact with the cpu but 51 load is nothing to worry about, anything below 60 is fine but start worrying at anything...

I bought a Ultra 500watt from Compusa and I have no problems with it what so ever. My comp specs are:
Abit IS7
Pentium 4 2.6c overclocked to 3.3ghz
PNY 6800Gt running at Ultra speeds
Seagate 80 gig Sata
1 cdrw and 1 dvd drive
1 floppy drive
Audigy 1 running Audigy 4 drivers
9 case...
Its seems that the only capacitor problems with PNY were with the 6800nu only and at Compusa's black friday deal. I havent seen any other stories about bad PNY 6800 cards.
