8800GT 512MB at 90+C

I also have a BFB 8800GT but I underclocked it back to factory specs. The reason why I dialed the card back was to ensure stability and control the temp. With Rivatuner, I increased the fan speed to 50% and now my card idles at 44C and about 57C under load. (Of course, having an Antec...

Thoughts on G. Skill RAM?

Just trying to get some feedback on G. Skill memory, as far as comparing it to Crucial, Corsair, Patriot, etc. I'm in the process of building another rig with an E6750 and using PC6400 RAM on an Abit iP35 Pro mobo. Originally, I was going to use 2 gigs of the Corsair XMS dual channel but...

Just a FYI: Best Buy is selling the LG L226WTQ for 309.99 through Saturday August 11, 2007. Didn't see any rebate requirements either. Definitely going to get one this Friday. Glad I waited. ;)

Thanks for the info, xtknight. I was looking at the Dell website and they now have their 22 inch version selling for $269. (Probably safe to assume that is a TN panel) How would you rank it in comparison to the LG and HP, in terms of quality?

Thanks for the reply, Xtknight. Question: Does LG make a IPS LCD larger than 20"? Like a 24 inch model? I noticed on your list of recommendations that NEC and Phillips use a LG panel on some of their 24 and 23 inch models, respectively. Is that the only options on buying a larger IPS...

I guess I'll stick with the LG, based on your recommendation on 22" LCDs. :D I noticed that you deleted the notes from this model, stating that it was the best 22 incher of the bunch; is that not the case any more? Just wondering.

Does anyone have any data on this model and is it even worth considering? Hanns·G HW-223DPB Black 22" 5ms ($259.99 on Newegg) Seems like the only 22 incher out there with USB ports, currently. I know that manufacturers are trying to be price competitive by leaving out frills normally...

I've been researching for a 22" LCD and happened to stumble upon this thread and I must say that this has been the most comprehensive source of information that I could ask for; kudos to you xtknight for your extensive wealth of data. Originally, I was leaning towards the Samsung 226BW but...
