[QUOTE=altern;42917600]I think I'm getting an lg g2 later this week. my samsung intensity 2 finally shit the bed (couldn't quite make it to 3 years, poor soul,) and the g2 is really the only smartphone on verizon right now that meets most of my criteria.
✔ I'd like to keep it under $200 (G2 is $150 on contract)
✔ I need at least 32gb, my music library is 13gb (G2 is 32gb)
✔ It needs to not be slow as fuck (G2 is fast as fuck)
✔ It needs to be greater than 720p (G2 is IPS 1080p)
✖ I'd like it to be under 5 inches (G2 is 5.2 )
can anyone think of any other options?[/QUOTE]
HTC One?

Peaked at $900, dropped to $585 in a matter of minutes. Now it's experiencing huge aftershock bubbles of +/- $250
Until shit like this stops happening, bitcoin will never be successful as a mainstream currency

correct me if i'm wrong it wont really stop being volatile until it near mined out. so for the time being it useful as a quick transfer for cash overseas or distance or as a medium for investment.
It would probably help how much wattage you need but something that is seasonic whether it seasonic itself or a OEM is usually best bet.
[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;42919703]550W at most it's only gotta power a 3470 4 fans and a 760 at most. So really any seasonic or corsair CXxxxM series are viable.[/QUOTE]
yea that my preference of choice for PSU's
[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;42919759]Alright I got a PSU but I want everyone's opinion. Good 10/10 buy?

Good power supply but terrible price. I bought the CX600 from newegg for around $60 over a year ago.
I think I put more food than I do my drawing pens on my Wacom tablet.

He's in New Zealand, pretty sure the same thing applies to prices in New Zealand as they do in Finland when it comes to electronics: Price = North American price * 1.5

I have to go through a brick and mortar Verizon store, my family's plan was full with 5 lines so I'm on my aunt's account and she's in town for thanksgiving, but she has no idea what the fuck is going on really and a real store would just be best.

that was the other option, but I'm not sure how I feel being stuck with a snapdragon 600 for the next two years

Best Buy price match the S4, and trade in your old phone for credit towards the S4
Well this kind of sucks. Skanic gave me a Windows 8 key and I reformatted/reinstalled and when I got into the OS, the key shows up as exceeding its unlock limit and now Windows is mad at me and I also can't get 8.1
:suicide:
Is there an actual advantage of S4 over G2, not to be a dick but the extra hoops are worth it why?
[editline]19th November 2013[/editline]
like I am really glad people are answering my question and I sound douchey as hell right now but I had thought the G2 had some of the best specs?
Yay, mouse finally arrived.

Wow that mouse is super sexy.

It's absolutely gorgeous, the chassis itself is also solid metal with the plastic shell around it. Extremely well made.
[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;42921324]Maybe Corsair will go into the GPU market and actually make a R9 290X that doesn't reach over 100C out of the box :v:[/QUOTE]
For the longest time I have wanted to build an "All-Corsair" build for the sake of it, that would make it so much sweeter.

Speaking of go-to brands, I feel like Logitech has become mine. Curious as to the to-go brand of you all?

Like all of my peripherals are from logitch. Mouse (G9), keyboard (G15 mk2), headset (G930), joystick (Extreme 3D Pro) and gamepad (Lent to my friend, I use a PS3 controller now anyway). I think all the parts in my computer are from different manufacturers (unless you count ram kits that come with more than one stick, or the fact that I have two monitors that are the same model)
[editline]19th November 2013[/editline]
No wait I take that back my mobo is ASUS, as are my monitors
Still using dat 3 year old (I think? Lost count) Logitech G9x.

g15mk2, MX revo mk2(gonna get a g700s or a g702[doesn't exist yet but they just gave the 500 a better sensor and called it the 502 so its happening soon]), g930

I've got a G15v2 and a G500, and an X240 speaker set from logitech. I had a headset but I broke it and use a Guitar Hero mic now
Logitech. [url=http://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/speaker-system-z523]Z523 speakers[/url] and a G300. I planned on getting a G710 but a razer blackwidow 2013 ultimate was on sale at best buy and i gave my buddy cash to buy it and he used his employee discount so I got it for like 40 bucks.
On my PC I'll use my Model M for typing on and switch to the blackwidow if im gonna do a long gaming session.
I think Asus is my go to brand at the moment, my graphics card and sound card upgrades were all Asus. Considered getting a monitor from them until that Samsung TV was found instead. I'm not brand worshipping or anything but their stuff seems to always worth having a look at.

Isn't that "Sniper Button" annoying ?
The G400 feels like it was made for my hand. I don't know if i could ever use a different mouse.

I don't know about him, but that's where my thumb rests and I feel like having a button there could get annoying
