So I might just maybe get a nexus 5. Chances are slim but im trying to convince my mom for it. Since im in the US it will be the perfect time to get one at a decent price unlike sweden. Where should I buy this without contract for the cheapest possible. I use 12 gb's max so the 16gb is for me.

You still might want to consider the 32GB varient. I thought I didn't need that much storage space when I was on my old phone but when I got my HTC Butterfly S, the storage space just flies away.

Yea I will definately take it into consideration especially because its 50 bucks more only! :)

There was a problem with the PCB. I would recommend getting an another R9 290 from Asus or maybe a GTX 780. Also contact newegg and ask for a return and get a different GPU.

Quote me to get a reply!

probably from built up system cache. You can try to root and use utilities that remove system cache.
