Phenomenal cosmic power... and (relatively) itty bitty price.
I mentioned in today's Moneysaver that Rakuten was running a promotion where customers could get 30% of their spendings back in store credit on purchases over $200 using the code SUMMER at checkout.
Turns out this applies to the latest generation of Intel's processors and NVIDIA's video cards as well. It's a pretty insane deal on these just-released components. So insane in fact that I bought them myself. Guess that gaming PC I'm planning on building is happening sooner than expected.
Warning: Credit will be available 15 days after delivery and must be used within 20 days after that.
Warning 2: Do not forget to put the code in.
The processor you want:
• Intel Core i7-4770K 3.4GHz "Haswell" ($338 - $101 Credit = $237)
As for the 700 series of graphics cards, they have both the 770 and 780 from a few different makers, though at least in my opinion, the 780 doesn't really justify its price. I went with the:
• EVGA GeForce GTX 770 SC 2GB w/ ACX Cooler ($420 - $126 Credit = $294)
