      If you are looking for cheaper than that, I like the MEElectronics M6 and M9 earphones.  For the money, they are hard to beat.

      I have the M9 earphones. My only complaints with them are 1) the sound is a bit bass-heavy and 2) cord noise or noise from movement in the ear buds is a minor annoyance.

      The first M9 set I purchased failed within a month, but the company did stand behind the product and sent me a new pair with an improved connector design.

        FYI, from a review on that PS tester on Newegg (and this is why I never would trust any of these cheap black box testers and instead use a multimeter)

        Don’t trust this, get something better. The screen only lights up for the 20/24 pin connector and when you plug in a modular connector the device simply looks for any amount of voltage. It does not see if the voltage is too high or low, the light will light up green regardless. I connected my 5V rail to the 12V on this device and light was still green, same with connecting the 5V to the 12V on the device. Useless because if the PSU has 2 rails and one rail is failing this might fail to detect the other rail while your power supply kills off hard drives and optical drives, as it was doing in my case. A cheap voltmeter can put this device to shame.

          OP update: Sears Marketplace removed, Erwin Computers added back and the new low price leader.

          It looks like the sub-$275 pricing was certainly a mistake by a lot of these new retailers.

          If anyone has ordered from Fluid Digital with the new promotion, please post your shipping charge.

            I recommend a multimeter. Just check your voltages with it while running and verify they are close to where they should be. ATX spec says +/- 5% tolerance on all positive voltages and +/- 10% on all negative voltages. If they’re off by more, you have a bad PS for sure.

                Can you provide your final system build and how much it could possibly expand?

                Most likely, You’ll want something in the 300 – 400W range. Power supply efficiency drops pretty dramatically less than 20% load which is why oversized supplies are a waste.

                  OP Update: I just received an e-mail from Fluid Digital who are now offering the InfiniTV 4 for $269 + Shipping to customers who have previously purchased from Fluid Digital. Enter code REPEAT if it applies to you.

                    If you are buying a retail box Intel chip, it will come with a heat sink and fan.

                            These crazy heat sinks on RAM these days are annoying.

                              Oh well, saves me from having to worry about a huge rebate.

                                  Yeah, it definitely is no match for the i3, but it probably would do well pitted against that Athlon II 250e part that was suggested.
