Anyone looking for anything in particular? I'm not in the market for anything, but I do have more time at the computer than most. If I run into something, I'll post it if you want.

Sorry dude I know you HATE the Plubus for some reason. I personally think that is very funny! i :) i

I will seriously post anything I am in the market for. I have a few things on Amazon in my cart and am just going to check to see if the price changes. Kind of my trick now. Easier than checking each price.

One thing I can think of is a new video card for my HTPC. I want to upgrade that. Just unsure which to get that is the cheapest/best for for 4K video.

I missed out on a nice 1660 model, one that was close in performance to a 1660ti, for $203. Would have been just what I wanted. Oh well, just can't do that now.

What model(s) are you looking for? A 1660 might be enough for 4k VIDEO, you need to do the googles pretty quick.

Right now I am looking to get a 1050ti since, according to one article, is the sweet spot for an HTPC.
Due to HDMI support and hardware decoding etc...

So a minimum 2GB 1050ti is something to look out for.

I am still reading more so that could change, if so I will post here.

Hmmm looks like I can get away even cheaper.
One article
https://techbuyersguru.com/video-card-buyers-guide

recommends this card.

I was posting about an android tablet going on sale (1920 x 1200, upgradeable to Android 6.0) for $89.99, but it went out of stock while I was posting about it at 2 in the morning. I wouldn't have known about it except I had a price drop alert set up through CamelCamelCamel several months ago.
