my $1000 USD Vaio Z :D
http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...40624028_n.jpg

too bad the specs are shitty... Core i5, 4GB Ram, 128GB SSD, and worst of all 1600x900 screen.

The one I have coming next month will be loaded with i7, 8GB Ram, 512GB SSD, 3G Module and the 1920x1080 screen!

By we I meant work got it. :p We got one CF, one black. Doubt that we're going to bring in gold or the carbon indigo without special order - they're not common selling colors.

Debadge it!

Would be like a non-cripple CR48.

So anyone going out to the NCIX sale?

q0192837465 10-22-2011 12:06 AM

should i?I'm debating if I should.

Datsun 10-22-2011 12:25 AM

Depends if you're building or upgrading. Didn't see any GPUs (could be wrong, they might be hiding on the centre rack), but saw P8P67's for $100. Saw some SIlverstone PSU for $60 (couldnt make out the spec). That centre rack might have a lot of good shit but the video didnt capture much.

Anyways I'm going for the monitors, cheap old mobo, and cheap HTPC case.

Overall not INSANE, but if you dig around I'm sure you'd find something sweet. Last time my friend scored a $120+ monitor arm that bolts onto the desk for $20. :lol:

and protip: Dont buy those $60 HAF 922s, or the 800D. HAF 912 is really good, and usually at $50 or less new. Those 800D's were $100 bucks before.

q0192837465 10-22-2011 01:05 AM

forecast says it's gonna rain thru the night. I guess I'm gonna check it out @ like 10 or something. Not gonna line up tho. Not really worth it.

Datsun 10-22-2011 05:24 AM

Sorry for being completely blind, but I couldn't find this video others have mentioned! Was it posted on Linus' youtube? I'm looking at his channel here:

LinusTechTips's Channel - YouTube

and I didn't see any video about this recent warehouse sale's deals. Where was it ????

The laptop deals this time were MUCH better this time around. Plenty of Timeline X's and Asus UL series for around $300 or less.

twitchyzero 10-23-2011 01:08 AM

:fuckthatshit: at least it wasn't raining hard

:seriously: you find an i7 laptop with a 5870 for 800$ without waiting for 3 hours. Probably find one for WAY WAY more thna 800$

bakasam 10-24-2011 05:51 PM
