Cheap ?

Yup, cheap compared to my ASUS Monitor, cost me 675.00 Mike.

Yep, cheap for that kind of specs in that size. Some screens with similar numbers still cost way over 1000€.

Edit: That same screen, but the 24" model still cost 459€ in Finland. And if updated a notch to the UP2718Q it costs 1999€.

lol, and so more chip prices keep going up instead of down. This is sad news.

Interesting to see the 6 core i5's leaked, I wonder if the 9600K is basically the same as the 8700K? Does this mean 8 cores for the new i7's or something else? Interesting that no i7 was leaked. Can Intel get an 8 core to turbo across all cores at 4.5Ghz +...

It starts to make sense now:

Retailers are not offered price protection for GPUs from nVidia. No wonder cards are hard to get. Too big risk for retailers to order a bunch of cards that now retail for $1000 when the price could be forced down by nVidia any moment. The retailer would have to pay for the difference.

Not good at all. And greedy nVidia wins again. :-(

Who else has noticed that Corsair released the Corsair Hydro H100i Pro?

There`s no listing of a H100i Pro on the Corsair website yet, not here anyway.

Liquid Cooling

These are the only 2 I`ve seen so far, and they`ve been out for a bit now.
