Ya mean going back to the prices it was about a year ago. When I built my AM2 system around last April the 2 gig of 5-5-5-12 DDR2-800 I got was $165. Prices spiked up massively around when the C2D launched and has remained spiked since for the most part. Since the holidays ended we've started to see some cooling back down though.

Not sure if this has been posted before, but you can get the Ultra Wizard Black Mid Tower Case free after rebate at Fry's. Free shipping right now too, so it is literally free.

I got one a couple days ago, and it looks to be a pretty solid case. And if i don't decided to use it, it will make a nice end table or foot stool.

[Tomcrit]

The link worked earlier but now just goes to the main page. I would have ordered earlier if i was in the US. Will be interesting to see if Aen gets his as it looks like it was a typo.
Or possibly they sold out hehe

Provantage has the Antec Nine Hundred back down at the $88 price

Note though that someone brought up there are 2 versions - one with a different back area that is slightly different near the 1st PCI case slot. Apparently the older ones can sometimes block off use of that top slot with some motherboards and the new version adjusts for this. If the picture on the site is accurate, this is the old version they are selling. (Though most people will never use that 1st slot, so it is likely a moot point in most cases.)

If you have a cellphone with stereo bluetooth support (AD2P) these are awesome.

I bought the 900 from Provantage 2 months ago and it was the new version. I doubt anybody has any of the old versions left by now. It's been several months since they made the change and the 900 seems to sell pretty well.

[Fozzik]

The only thing that keeps me from grabbing one is the fact that I don't feel like moving all my components into a new case. Yeah, I'm a lazy bastard... it would take all of like half and hour...but I still have to sit and consider doing it for a month. lol

Also, I'd end up using my primary case for one of the secondary machines... so I'd actually be switching two machines out into new cases.

Too much work. I'll just stick with the one I have until mid-2008 or so.

Antec 900 for $94, was actually a better deal than the $88 aformentioned case after shipping. + they only take 3dys to me. Clubit is espcially good at stocking the newest stuff out.

I hate having to sell my beloved stuffs for food monies

If anyone would be interested in my old Antec Super LanBoy Case in the next few days let me know. Gonna have to drop it onto Ebay.

New it's like $80 and shipping. (NewEgg hasn't carried it in forever for some reason.)

Since mine is used we can call it $45, which would include shipping.

It's in like perfect condition, box, case, manual, never opened the carrying strap thing. There is a tiny bit of sticker stuff on the front, but you have to know exactly where to look. There is also a happy face sticker where the 'logo' sticker spot is.

These aren't hardware, but they are indirectly related through gaming.

I played CoH / CoV back in the day, and part of that is a subscription to a comic when your sub is active. Tossing my old comics up on ebay. No clue if they are worth anything to collectors these days. (I think you can get some of the newer types in the store, but the original series was only given free to subscribers at the time.)

City of Heroes Original Blue King series, Issues 1-5, some sealed

City of Heroes Top Cow series, Issue 3 -6 (all sealed). And, it looks like issue 6 doubles as City of Villains issue #1

If you are interested or know someone who may be, toss em towards the ads. One of the cooler 'gimmies' for games over the years.
