  1. What are you buying?
     
  2. Probably a 4TB WD Black hard drive. Normally $300. Going on sale for $210 at Canada Computers.

    Monday has bigger sales than now ?

    I'm not sure here, maybe a 250gb SSD even if i don't really have the use for it and maybe 16gb RAM, if it's useful too. I want to get a 290x but i'm waiting for the V2 of em with custom coolant and not the stock version.
     
  4. Don't drives over a certain size have an increased fail rate because the platters can't operate modularly?
     
  5. I almost just bought that myself Kyoji, that is a crazy good deal.
    I ended up going with a projector upgrade instead. 1080p, 3D, 120Hz, 3000 lumen output, and 10,000:1 contrast, with 4000 hour lamp life. It will be a pretty nice upgrade for my aging projector I have now.
     
  6. I went cheapo and got the 2 of these for $60 a piece in a 1 hour sale that went up this morning:
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820721107&nm_mc=EMC-IGNEFL112913&cm_mmc=EMC-IGNEFL112913-_-EMC-112913-Index-_-SSD-_-20721107-L07B

    I've been wanting to upgrade my graphics card too before star citizen dog fighting comes out. Right now I'm running a 560 ti which probably won't cut it but I'm not sure if I should get the gtx 670 ($250 on newegg today) or wait and get whatever the next best graphics card will be that will last a while.
     
  7. I love my 770, still kinda expensive though.

    I'll be buying BF4 50% off on Origin when I get home from work tonight.
     
  8. Yeah I have been thinking of getting a 770. I guess if it goes on sale reasonably I will pick one up.

    Well all SSDs are quite for sale. Amazon is doing the Intel series at half price. Samsung is pretty much 30% off everywhere :)

    I'm waiting on the R9 v2 myself as the 660 TI is still good (can run BF4 in high at 60fps, just not ultra).

    AAHHH NEWEGG IS SUCH A POS.

    They won't send the fkin SSD because i used my euro CC to buy it and it's not the same address registered at the bank. NO SHIT EINSTEIN, people aren't supposed to shop when they on holidays either???

    Now the SSD prices are up again, can't buy it anymore. Aaah i'm so pissed, freaking useless piece of junk store. I even had a freaking confirmation SMS when i ordered. Not like someone stole my CC and my phone.
