Namaste,
I have been out of touch with Anandtech for last 15 years. You guys (or your dads) helped me build my first PC in 2001.
Need some advice on buying a new tower desktop PC.
I have a HP tower PC that is about 10 years old. I have a blu-ray drive and 4x HGST 4 TB disks. Boot drive is a...
F4:AF is a great game if you are a hardcore flight simmer.
Very realistic reproduction of F-16 cockpit and the famous 700+ page PDF manual.
It has a steep learning curve, but if you are into the simming genre, you can't go wrong with this one.
I'm trying to get the most out of my existing PC, before I do a complete mobo+CPU upgrade.
I have a GiGabyte GA-7DX mobo with 2 x 256 MB RAM and an AMD 2000+ CPU.
I'm planning to upgrade to 2 x 1 GB RAM sticks after figuring out that RAM is a bottleneck in my system (I'm upgrading the...
I enjoy playing games occassionaly, but I have been out of the loop for a while ..
I recently bought HL2, Farcry and Halo for the PC.
I was shocked to see that only Halo played on my PC (only 800x600 had acceptable frame rate).
HL2 and Farcry refused to play on my GF3 Ti200 (I have an...
Don't you guys think Valve really cheaped out by putting 5 CDs in paper covers in the box. There is no booklet, game guide, CD cover or anything.
Ok the game is great, but imagine coming home with a $55 purchase (MSRP) and finding a bunch of CDs in a cardboard box. A plastic CD case with a...
Went to CompUSA/GoodGuys store at Hillsdale Mall, San Mateo (SF Bay Area).
They did not have a single copy and refused to issue a raincheck.
They did a search on the computer and said Hayward and East Palo Alto might have it.
Went to E.Palo Alto store, did not have a single copy (they...
:( Just got back from AMd, Sunnyvale show. It sucked.
They gave away only *4* opteron CPUs. That's it, no more AMD CPUs.
The AMD partners had a little more stuff - ATI gave away a coupld of graphics boards, and a couple of motherboard manufacturers gave away a few mbs.
More than 70% of...
I ordered some perfume from Victoria's Secret today.
I knew that that there was free shipping over $100. I assumed that it was standard shipping (5-7 days).
I then tried 3 day shipping, and then express shipping and the price never changed. Saved 15 bucks on express shipping.
P.S...
Sportmart is not the place I usually go for deals. But they surprised me this time:
1. They have a sale on portable chairs - 2 for $10.
These are the portable ones that you can take to the beach or a concert. They are collapsible and come with a carry bag. Cupholder is included. Brand is...
There are about 200 of them lined up where the computer cases are dislayed.

I called the Bay Area OD stores at San Mateo, San Jose, Sunnyvale and Los Gatos. None of them have any of the three in stock. The Lost Gatos store clerk said that he could order it for me .. but he quoted usual prices .. no deal in the Bay Area!
Bluetooth is a neat way to get rid of the tangling headphone wires. The technology is mature - and I can already see it being used on cell phones.
I cannot understand what prevents manufacturers from providing bluetooth support with their MP3 players. Cordless headphones would be such a hit...
Computer Gaming World - Jan 04 issue is out in stores. It's a special issue that costs $8.99, but it comes with a DVD that contains 4 full games (not demo versions - full games). They are:
- Deus Ex
- Thief II: The Metal Age

Don't know if this is nationwide. I went to a local Home Depot (San Mateo, CA) and they had the mag lite at full price $21 and change. I had it scanned and still no deal :-(
Was this a BF only deal??
Just ordered the 12.99 card from computer123.com. I went to Fry's yesterday and all the IEEE1394 cards were $30 and up. So $12.99 + free shipping (+ cable) is a hot deal!
I agree that the frames don't look too hot, but the XOOR polarized lenses are pretty good.
I used them for a year and I was very happy with them .. they were in my car when I dropped my Camry off for an oil change at Stevens Creek Toyota and they were never seen since ..
Polarized lenses cut...

Some good deals -
Additional 25% off of mens and womens clearance
10-50% off on bed & bath
Free TV with $100 dining purchase
Some guys at AT were saying that they got good deals on the midnight sale last year ..
I have been following up these rechargable battery threads as well and here are my findings -
1. Batteryspace.com is your best bet for cheap NiMH batteries. MCM's Energizer cells (AA, 1800 mAH) at 89 cents each look attractive, but they don't specify the shipping charges at the time of checkout...
Talking about tires, have u guys checked out the NHTSA's Uniform Tire Quality Gradings Report? They have done some objective tests on different tire brands and have published a report.
Might be useful in deciding your next brand/model ..

$34.99 - $10 IR - $10MIR = $14.99
This is the best price I have seen on this FRS radio. I saw this on the other OfficeMax deals thread. I went to my local OfficeMax (San Mateo, CA) and saw a lot...
Thanks for the hot deal. Just had my tires rotated for free.
I went to the store locator on the website and I found America's Tire Co, Redwood City, CA was the closest for me. They accepted the coupon without any fuss. Very polite, good service was in and out in 45 mins.
Most shops I know...
