ImageQuest L90D+

[jharsh]

just placed an order at tigerdirect.com and the total was only $388! Not bad as most places want $430+ for the monitor and then another $15 for shipping.

here is a link to newegg's page. it's sold out but they have the best description of it (and they have feedback on the page)

Hard to believe last year I was griping about paying $50 for a used 17" monitor and this year I drop nearly $400. Times have changed.

btw
here is tigerdirects link

man that's a sah-weet deal.  I almost want to sa whats wrong with it. now if only I could get $400 smackers.
I'll need to check it out at the LAN, if you don't mind.

[jharsh]

sure.

wait till you see the rest of the system. It's going to be SWEET! I have about 80% of the system and still have $1000 to spend. I'm getting an x800 pro for sure as well as 2 74gb raptor hard drives. Not sure what else I should get.

any idea on a good joystick?

Try a Saitek joystick.

I have the Cyborg EVO, and found out this weekend that Spade and Dark Angel do as well.

The king of joystick info would be Vector, but we may not hear from him, as he has been well over his head with work.

It arived today :rolling!

it's huge. Though I'm still not 100% happy as I can still see slight blur (yes I'm picky). Still it's not bad. Only had one pixle stuck on red but I rubbed it out.

Next on my list is a pci-e motherboard and either a x850xt or xtpe (depending on my cash this weekend) and 2 74gb raptor hard drives. Getting ready for battlefield 2.

ok placed an order for an x850 XT platinum. I also ordered a giga-bute motherboard (pci-e). Going to have a sweet system this year.

dang x850 platinum was out of stock. So I have an x850 XT comming instead. This time I ordered through newegg (I'll never order elsewere again). Just for those who need to know check the link below for the card I got.

XT cards are the only way to go.

[jharsh]

nice thing was I jumped on a sale. So the card only cost me 489.00 and not the $530 they want now.

[jharsh]

newegg has them in stock for $389 now. not bad as just a week ago they wanted $430.
