I honestly love this cooler, but I think I'm gonna move on to another one soon, it just looks... A bit to bland compared to other flaming red (literally) coolers on the market.

I've used this headset extensively for MAG on PS3. The sounds were wonderful, the mic was crisp, and the ability to adjust peoples voice volume is absolutely invaluable. For $100 ( or less ) this...

The Pros The reason this card is one of the better non-Tahiti 7870s is because of Gigabyte's custom PCB. Gigabyte took the 7870 and replaced it's memory chips with Hynix memory so they perform a...

I recieved my triple monitor mount on friday! Here is a review and some pictures!
Merchant: EastMountLCD.com
Product: Deluxe Triple Monitor Stand Free Standing up to 28"
Price: $95.95
I was really surprised with the fast shipping and the quality of the mount. I have never heard of this company, so at first, I was a little reluctant to order.
First off, the build quality of this mount is solid! The base of the mount is really sturdy and well made. The mount itself seems to be powder coasted of some sort. It comes with an adjustable pole (for the height of the monitors) which attaches to the base and the arm is assembled with 3 pieces. Adjusting the mount and monitors is very easy for rotating, pivoting, and side to side with a lever locking mechanism. Also, one neat feature I like about this mount, is the cut-out in the pole for your cables!
All the necessary hardware is provided in the box. The instructions were easy to read. It took me less than an hour to assemble the mount and attach the monitors.
Cons:
As of right now, the only thing I noticed, is the arm is not angled much. This does not bother me, but I know some users would like a cockpit feel with a wider angle.
I still have some adjustments and cable management to do, but I am not going to bother with it too much since I am de-bezeling the with in the next week or so. In the mean time, if I have any issue with the mount, I will let the community know.
Overall, I am happy with my purchase, and I highly recommend this mount; especially at this price!
I hope this helps everyone who is seeking a monitor stand for one, two, or three monitors.
So, with out further adieu...check out the pictures!

Installation of Fan Grills (26)
Well, I finally was able to basically finish The Red Dragon before the Head start Launch of Guild Wars 2 on 8/25/2012. I still have a bit of wire management left. However, I need to pickup so more zip ties.
Well, I have 26 fan grills and a total of 32 fans in the system.

looks sexy
didnt relise the size till the board went in dam that case is big. Also c\would it be possible for the cables to run somewhere other than the centre of the case it just looks a little tacky.
