does the monitor have speakers and hdmi in?

[choigunz]

Nice man, im not building but i am also getting that monitor and a new stock tower from ibuypower since i don't game anymore. hopefully it doesn't sell out before i get it since im ordering it tuesday and the sale ends wednesday for the 15 bucks off. Based off the reviews the screen is beautiful and i bought a 19 inch monitor like 3 years ago and it's trash....this one is 21.5 " LED back light LCD screen for 145..that's a steal how do you like it btw?

@choigunz I love it. The contrast ratio is 10,000,000:1, and the colors are very vivid rather than dull like my old monitor. Playing Starcraft 2 on Extreme settings and WoW on Ultra is beautiful. I bought Newegg's 2-year warranty with mine. They're aren't any dead pixels on mine either

@MikeFF7KH2 that's really good to hear mine comes in monday, well at least i hope...it said monday but it's president's day so im not sure. I couldn't get a warranty because i only had enough for the monitor itself so hopefully there is nothing wrong with the monitor...im kinda worrying because i heard it's good to always get a warranty but based off the reviews people haven't had problems outta the box but we'll see...sounds good though man im exciting to see the quality or my self

Did you get the monitor yet?

[MikeFF7KH2]

@RWLTouch Sorry, dude, I haven't been uploading in a while. Just got a job and switched schools; been busy. I have had the videos in my camera, recording the un-boxing of all the parts, including the monitor (which is very vibrant and beautiful by the way). If you were interested in getting that monitor from Newegg, I definitely recommend it, especially for how inexpensive it is

One hell of a Christmas present, I wish I could be so lucky. Assuming it's your first build?

[MikeFF7KH2]

@punkwunder Yeah, this was my first build. Everything fit perfectly, I just had to be creative with how I placed the HDDs

[voxmagna2]

i say get the OCZ revodrive 

[MikeFF7KH2]

@voxmagna2 I would have got the Revodrive, but I read that multiple people were having compatibility issues with the Crosshair IV Extreme and PCI-e Solid States

[voxmagna2]

@MikeFF7KH2 Oh ok. dont think its a compatibility prob; think its caused by the board going into power saver mode for the pci-E slots.

good luck with the build man.. and I hope you don't have anywhere near as much problems as I did with my ARES. :/
