Post by: Internetlad on Thu, 21 November 2013, 18:07:36
Saving a whopping 20 bucks on this unit coming from newegg.

Not sure if this is part of a larger CM promotion or a standalone, but I noticed this was discounted and wante dto share.

10 bucks off a purchase over 100. The board is only 99.95 by itself.
Plus it's covered in gold, so you know it's quality.

Getting over $100 to make the -$10 work... Needed to be an item that is as cheap as possible w/ free shipping. The cable is useful to boot (at least to me.) ;)
