It was under their email deals today.

Yea that's what I thought. I didn't think you could get the XT anymore though. I though Sapphire quit making them leaving the Myst as the only one.

I ask because the Sapphire 7870XT is $245 on there

He bought the open box Myst but called it an XT. Same thing.

You should delid. It's easy with the vise/hammer method, and I got a 20+ C temp reduction by replacing the TIM under the IHS with liquid ultra.
I think I'm fine at the moment.

What do you do with those virtual machines?
I'm a product developer in addition to being an enthusiast. I need to support all of these platforms and it's cheaper to upgrade my gaming machine than get a separate VMWare box, and with the improved power efficiency of Haswell, it was a no brainer.

But that's $175 on open box not $166

Use code Wallet when buying from the mobile Newegg app with Google wallet and you get $15 off.
$175 - $15 = $160 plus $6 shipping = $166
$175 - $15 = $160 plus $6 shipping = $166

Ah, that makes sense. Nevermind the on the 32GB of RAM then. I'm too used to dealing with people here trying to build primarily gaming PCs and throwing money at the wrong hardware. What kind of stuff do you develop?

Mainly .Net web applications. In the past year I have been doing more native iOS development for a large engineering firm.
Primarily the VMs are for the Windows side of a mobile product that interfaces with an enterprise CRM and supports XP/2003 and up. I run MySQL and PHP under the Linux VM for some odd side jobs that pop up once or twice a year.

Ah okay this makes so much more sense now

LOL, so I tried to pick up the open box MYST myself for the $15 off and sure enough for the third time in as many weeks it removed it from my cart because they were out. Newegg hates me

Posted on 7/27/13 at 5:50 pm to Mr Gardoki

I tore my laptop down today and cleaned the dust and everything out real good then put some Arctic Silver on the CPU. My fan that used to run on high all of the time is now barely running and there isn't as much heat coming out of it as before.
They do a horrible job of applying the paste at the factory. shite was all over the place.
