    120hz or 1440p @ 27" gaming monitor? For someone who can't see them in real life

    So you're saying I'd be better off getting the cheapest one and overclocking it? Or are you recommending I buy two 770's and SLI them now? I'm open to either suggestion :)

    120hz or 1440p @ 27" gaming monitor? For someone who can't see them in real life

    I'm trying to decide which gtx 780 card I should purchase. I'm open to any models and I don't have a brand loyalty/preference. I have a $25 Best Buy gift card laying here that I'd like to use up. I'm just having trouble figuring out the best card in terms of clock speeds, cooling, noise, and...

    First off, thank you for all your help bystander, you've contributed a lot and I really appreciate your patience with my questions. And just as much thanks to everyone else for their patience too. Second, I think my plan is going to be I buy a gtx 780 now and get the Asus that is upgradable to...

    Do you think G-Sync is worth it even if you have the GPU power under the hood? I think someone earlier said that its not if you have a strong setup?

    Do you think the 780 ti is worth the premium on it?

    120hz or 1440p @ 27" gaming monitor? For someone who can't see them in real life

    How would my plan of action change if I was to get a 780/780ti now and pick another up later? The way I look at it is I have several options. For the GPU: 1. Buy a very powerful single card now and SLI/CF a month or so now. 2. Buy a strong set up right now like a 770 SLI or a 280x CF And...

    120hz or 1440p @ 27" gaming monitor? For someone who can't see them in real life

    Well I think my biggest dilemma here is that I can't really see either monitor type in real life so I can decide on my preference. I'd like to if I could but Best Buy, Tiger Direct, and even Microcenter by me do not have both monitor types on display. So I really only have the option of taking...

    Well would a single 780 be my best bet? Or something else? I hear people say there's issues with dual cards but I'm not too familiar with it. When do G-Sync monitors come out? And if I do get the ASUS now, how much will the upgrade kit cost me?

    120hz or 1440p @ 27" gaming monitor? For someone who can't see them in real life

    So a single 780 with the highest vram would be my best bet? Because I have a 570 atm, so how much of a performance gain might I notice? I'd like to be able to run games at max graphics settings very smoothly getting as close to the 120/144 refresh as possible

    120hz or 1440p @ 27" gaming monitor? For someone who can't see them in real life

    Bump because I'm still looking for a GPU setup that will take full advantage of a 120hz monitor. My Budget is about 500-600 give or take for the GPU setup. I'm probably going to pick up the Asus VG248QE monitor because I'd also like to try/take advantage of lightboost technology. If anyone...

    I have a i5 2500k that I still need to overclock, will that be fast enough after i over clock it?

    120hz or 1440p @ 27" gaming monitor? For someone who can't see them in real life

    Alright well you guys have me leaning more towards a 120hz monitor. Any recommended models? My budget is about 500 for the monitor. I'd prefer best colors and clarity and the like. My new GPU budget is also about 500-600. I was thinking about running either two 7970's GHZ editions or 2 R9 280Xs...

    Hey guys, I'm in the market for a new GPU/monitor setup and I'm really have a hard time deciding on a monitor to purchase. I've been sitting on this decision for the past few weeks. I've done insane amounts of research reading forums and reviews. I know the differences and the pros and cons of...
