^if you don't mind pickup from the states newegg.com has tons right now...15% off select ssds..bringing them to about $160 for 256gb no tax

hey how are people ordering from newegg.com with a Canadian credit card/paypal? i tried to order some items to be delivered to pt roberts but it was cancelled.

Is there a big difference in price between .com and .ca?

I just used newegg to pricematch with NCIX. Worked so far (they basically gave me the price after shipping).

^^..paypal works for me..they'll ship as long as your paypal account is confirmed. My friend recently used V.me and worked for him..

^considering usually prices are about 10 to 15% cheaper plus no tax yes I'd say its worth it to buy from .com

Pull the trigger and got the Intel 520 Series 120GB SSD.

my pump is making bit of coil whine...is your pump and fans pretty silent?
but from what i read on OCN they offer prepaid advanced replacement for RMA much like Dell monitors
haven't asked if it applies to Canada too

Yeah, there's a bit of a whine coming from the pump, and the fans aren't all that silent. That cooler's probably the loudest thing in my rig, keeping in mind that everything else is cooled by large, low-rpm fans. It's my first "water-cooling" part though, so I don't have anything to compare to.

Any good deals on Windows 8 floating around recently? My computer is in need of a reformat so figure I might as well go for the switch too. Windows 7 deals would be appreciated too (I'm not running a legit copy)

should have picked it up when it was $14 :/ that offer just ended at the end of Feb


you can get it for $70 if you have a student email address or know someone that does that could order one for you

Microsoft Store Canada Online Store - Students

or if you belong to a school or know someone that is enrolled in a school that has partnered with Dreamspark you can get Windows 8 for free

Just saw this on RFD, act fast. 7850 for $90

Buy the MSI RadeonHD 7850 2GB GDRR5 Overclocked Video Card at TigerDirect.ca

i wonder if they made a typo, supposed to be $189.97?

Damn?! $70 for a 7850?!

dammit, out of stock sometime while entering my infozzzz

EDIT: sometimes it's not out of stock and will not go into shopping cart!?! phishing for my CC!?!?!

"Instant Savings: - $152.02 (63%)"

damn i should have picked one up and sell the 6970 i ransacked from my dad

too bad its gone

can anyone recommend me a wireless keyboard/mouse thats pretty quiet ? like for typing,clicking and scrolling.

something thats like under $50

a couple months left before the intel rolls out the new CPU. Who has the cash ready? and what's your plan?

Don't get too excited unless you haven't upgraded in a while. It will only be about 5% faster than Ivy Bridge (but with lower power consumption). If you have IVB or SB already, there's no need to jump on this one.

Unless you plan on upgrading anyway. In that case it will be worth waiting.

Planned to replace my old E7200 with IB i7 last year, but so many bad reviews are holding me back. I could play most of the games out there at decent quality with my wife's Intel G620 with HD6800, but video editing is slow, so it is about time to upgrade.

- New i7
- 16gb ram
- Next gen video card
- Raid0 Samsung 840pro (just for fun)

Raid SSd is pointless

Bad reviews of IB i7...?

The SB/IB chips are fairly similar, and they're good processors - I don't get what you mean by bad reviews.

BTW, the GTX780 will be pretty much a GTX680, so don't expect much improvement there - same with the Radeon 8xxx series.
