Don't have a lot to spend, but don't need the best of the best either. Will be used in a bright living room as our main tv, for 75% satellite tv and 25% Netflix. Our main tv now is a 720p LG LCD so anything will be an upgrade. Would the TCL 55R613 be the best option for me? Is there anything as good...

I have a lease (which i plan on returning) so I don't necessarily want to get something top end like Nokian Hakkas or X-Ice Snows I also don't want to get supe...

I'm keeping an eye on GPU pricing and want to upgrade from an Rx480 card that is actually still mostly doing fine. I have a great 1080 Freesync monitor so I'll be sticking with AMD and don't need to push more than 1080 but I do use 1440 VR headset occasionally. Any suggestions on a good card/price p...

Hello, I need to replace my current TV, which was a 50in plasma from samsung that i bought over 10 years ago. Ideally if i can find something under 1k close to 800$ more or less that would be great, but I could go up to 1.2k for exceptional deals, if it is worth the extra cash. Main usage will be ma...

Would like to future proof as ...

... is because they spray it with something to make it last longer on another thread here so I'm not to sure anymore if it's still good. What is best bang for buck in terms of quality/taste to price? I buy about 40 breast at once and freeze the rest.

After sifting through some threads here I see that the few Costco models seem to be popular budget picks (Haier & Hisense). This TV would mostly be used for netflix and some television viewing, she is not a film buff or anything. So I would pick one of the cheapos at Costco however I just came a...

2.0 Turbo AWD Fully loaded. All in you're looking at $50k on the road. I think you would be hard pressed to find a tight vehicle at this price range, with good performance, handling, cargo, seating, luxury a this price range. I've driven mazda, hyundais, kias, and none of those come close in ride qu...

What's the best value out of the high-end models right now? By value, I mean companies like OnePlus, their OnePlus 5 is not quite as good as the S8 (though some might disagree) but it's close and way less expensive. Are there any other companies to look at, as far as the ones in which you'll have a ...
