    MSI Radeon 290x Twin Frozr - overlocking setups/advice

    You playing at 4k? I was thinking about getting another card but I'm honestly happy with this right now. I used to game at 120hz and loved it. It's funny how I can go back to 30hz (which is most console games anyways) and not have a problem with it. 4k gaming is well worth it (on 39inch...

    MSI Radeon 290x Twin Frozr - overlocking setups/advice

    no sorry bro, I didn't explain myself well. What I meant is that is the max setting possible in Afterburner. If I go too much above my current clocks, I get BSODs/lockups. That's why I'm wondering if there's another good setup/balance that I may be missing. She's running good though, very...

    MSI Radeon 290x Twin Frozr - overlocking setups/advice

    Just curious what stable setup's people have had success with. Just got a 4k TV and replaced my 7970. 4k gaming is eye candy jaw dropping and I can't stop playing it. Is this a good setup? Can I push it more? Any recommendations or advice would be appreciated. Using MSI Afterburner. Current...

    Unigine Valley 1.0 Benchmark Thread ** Post your scores**

    Anyone have any 4k results I could compare with? These console graphic tests don't mean much.

    MSI R9 290X 4GB - max resolution?

    Thanks Kent. I'm honestly ok with how my 7970 is running right now. How amazing the experience is, is worth the little bit of lag. Assuming my 290x will be a little better though.

    MSI R9 290X 4GB - max resolution?

    Can I crossfire it with my old 7970?

    MSI R9 290X 4GB - max resolution?

    What do you mean by that? Right now I'm running a MSI Radeon 7970 3GB HDMI @ 4k like a gem. I really would find it hard to believe that this card couldn't do the same. It's just odd how they list the Max Res.

    How does 1080p look on a 4k display?

    Looks terrible. I'm so spoiled at 4k now, anything else feels like 640x480.

    MSI R9 290X 4GB - max resolution?

    picked this up http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814127773 says the Max Resolution is 2560 x 1600 I plan on using this for 4k gaming (amazing and destroys eyefinity), no crossfire. Right now I've been 4k gaming on a Radeon 7970 and surprisingly it's holding up but hoping this is...

    Computer powering down and rebooting - PSU?

    I do not have a spare PSU unit to try. I'm starting to believe this is not the issue. Why would a power supply not allow more than 2gig of ram? Yes they are matched pairs. 2GB (2x1GB) OCZ Platinum PC2-8500 - DDR2-1066 speed, and at standard 5-5-5-18 timings @ 1066 MHz Computer runs...

    Computer powering down and rebooting - PSU?

    Thanks for the reply, but really I've done basic troubleshooting as you outlined. It simply will not hit post with more than 2gb of ram. All 4 sticks have been tested and working fine. I'm starting to hear this is quite common of an issue, but what's the fix or is it a faulty mobo?

    Computer powering down and rebooting - PSU?

    I recently purchased the new November Value Gaming PC. The only things that are different are the Power Supply and 4g instead of 2g of RAM. I put this together last night. I booted up her up w/ no video nor any warning beeps. After troubleshooting, I found out that it will only work work two...
