Still waiting on student loan money to show up. Wondering if the 2700k will show up or the consumer bulldozers appear before I get my money. Supposedly, we'll start getting bulldozer benchmarks later this week or so.

I love how it says ATi Crossfire-X on the Gigabyte motherboard. FUCK AMD BRANDING!

Extremely dislike the color-schemes they used... MSI picked up Gigabytes blue and white shit and Gigabyte chose to go with orange instead of red for some weird reason... RAM on either side of the processor socket is gay unless you've got slots for 8 DIMM's instead of 4.

Waiting for one of the 8 slot ones to come out so I can cram 32GB of super cheap 4GB sticks into it

e: and SB-e as well

Well, it's quad channel, so it makes more sense that it's done that way.

Postin' dis.

Rambus talked someone into buying their stuff whoa~!

Hopefully that choice leads to some epic GPUs because bulldozer is a flop

Sup guys, i'm currently contemplating the possibility of maybe, but maybe not, i'm torn between indecision of getting a new keyboard.

(i'm thinking about a new keyboard)
This is my current one


I've got a Saitek eclipse II at the moment and it's been awesome for about 4 years but i've just started to have some buttons die on me.
my f8, f9 key are dead and so is my "next song" and left windows key.

i cant do quick loads in Deus ex HR because i cant rebind the keys (seriously wtf) and it's a little frustrating not being able to go to the next song.
I've done the big cleanout pulled it all apart soaked it but to no avail, the pathway from these buttons to the receiver or controller or what ever is just dead which is a shame.

So i'm looking for something thats a backlit keyboard, has some buttons for music and just looks and feels like a good solid standard keyboard. Basically the same dael as what i've got now.

What do you recommend?
