    Quiet $20 price drop on GTX-670?

    Being in the market to buy, I have been staring at 670s debating what exactly to get, imagine my surprise when several that I had been eying suddenly dropped by $20. MSI PE, Asus DC2, Zotac Amp!, Galaxy 4GB, all had their list price drop by $20 on Newegg. The only aftermarket cooled (I wasn't...

    Where is the Borderlands 2 Coupon Code? (GTX 670)

    Razer Mechanical Keyboards Improved in BlackWidow Series

    fb39ca4Wait so if you were on a planet with 50x the gravity of earth the keys would fall down themselves? The "50g" should actually be "50gf" for gram-force, one gram-force is the force exerted by one gram at standard Earth gravity. So on a planet with 50x Earth gravity it would take one gram...

    Razer Mechanical Keyboards Improved in BlackWidow Series

    I have to agree with the glowing logo: don't need it, don't want it. Maybe if you were from the Isle of Man it would make you feel warm inside, but I'd rather not.
