I think you are right. Time save up some pennies I guess!

I am not sure if the latest Nvidia drivers have somewhow change the compatibility. When I enable Gsync compatibility, in Xplane for example, there is extreme tearing and jittering. I am sure that in a previous driver version, I had no real issues with with in Xplane. No matter I guess, as it...

I currently have the monitor connected using Displayport and have had not much success getting the monitor to run in Gsync compatible mode. Thanks for the reply

Hi all I will be upgrading to a Ryzen 2700X on an Asus X470 Prime motherboard. I will be using my Zotac 1070 as well. I currently have an Asus MG28UQ 4K monitor and would like to get into the 120/144Hz Gsync scene and would like to know if my 1070 would be up to the task? Would the card be...

hi all Just wondering if there would be any advantage to getting a PCI Express soundcard, as I have had my SB Extreme Audio for a few years and looking to replace it. thanks Don

Hi all I recently purchased a Dlink 628 Dual Band router from staples and although I am not a networking guru, I do know how to install and configure modems/routers. This one seems to be eluding me. I am able to connect the DLink to my Seimens Gigadet 567 router by and getting it to work...

Hi all Just wondering if I should spring for a 6950 now and replace my 5770 CF setup or wait till fall/winter? for the next offering from AMD and Nvidia? I game at 1900x1200 and mostly play flight sims and shooters. Currently playing Cliffs of Dover and Clear Sky Thanks!~

I went into my bios and found that I had to set the third PCIE slot to X1 to enable the second slot, as when it is on auto that slot is disabled. Crossfire then was available and I enabled it in CCC Now though, after I had the cabling all tied up and stowed them, there is no crossfire and no...

I connected the monitor to the second videocard, and got my video display. I am not familiar with crossfire, this is my first dual videocard setup actually. I had read that it doesn't matter what videocard you use for your display, maybe in this case it does?

The XFX card is my primary. I haven't tried connecting the monitor to the second card. I will give a try

I have two HD 5770 cards, one MSI and one XFX. I have them connected in xfire but when I boot there is no video out, but the computer is booting as I can see the hd light coming on. With just the XFX card installed/connected, the system boots into windows okay. I have a Ultra 600watt power...

Hi all Just wondering if it would be worth the $125 for a Powercolor 5850 I can get as an upgrade from my XFX 5770? I play mostly FPS such as Clear Sky and Metor 2033 as well as FSX and DCS Warthog. Thanks!

Thanks all, I think I will see if I can get a second 5770 for cheap

Hi all Just wondering if I could crossfire a 6770 with my XFX HD 5770? I understand that the 6770 is basically a more efficient 5770 and uses the same technology, correct? Thanks all!

Thanks all, I have it up and running now, with some of my monitoring programs running on the second monitor and my games in the main monitor. I was mucking around with the CCC and was trying my hand a duplicating the displays and then switched back after I messed it up the first time...
