    Question regarding 27" 1440p monitors

    Think I'm going to pass on this as I don't believe my GTX 670 is up to the task of running games at 1440p/60fps.

    Question regarding 27" 1440p monitors

    Hi Currently awaiting a refund for my 23" 1080p IPS monitor and I'm thinking about forking out a few hundred dollars on top and getting a 27" 1440p monitor. I believe IPS would be better than 120hz in my case as I'm not really heavy on the online FPS/racing games. I just have a few...

    New build, annoying problem

    I can now confirm the problem is with the monitor as it just happened when the laptop was connected. Also tried 3 different hdmi cables and 2 different hdmi ports and it didn't change anything. Is it likely to be a problem with the monitor itself or the power adapter?

    New build, annoying problem

    Hey. Used the monitor with a laptop for a day and the glitch didn't come up, been using the pc again for 2 days and it hasn't happened either. It's just a very annoying problem to troubleshoot because it happens at random and it doesn't come up with 3dmark/furmark/games. I'll wait for the...

    New build, annoying problem

    Cheers for the help. I don't have another monitor to use but I'll try using a laptop with the monitor. The problem starts happening randomly so it could be 5 minutes or 10 hours... I'll let you guys know later.

    New build, annoying problem

    Been doing some more troubleshooting. The problem fixes itself temporarily when I reset the monitor via the menu, and then later on the same problem will happen even though I didn't change anything. So it has to be a monitor problem, although I'm not sure if that would be the actual monitor or...

    Are these 3dmark scores normal (gtx 670)?

    This is my first build and I'm just wondering if these scores are normal for a factory overclocked 670? I ran the test with default settings.

    How to invert controller y axis?

    Looked all over the internet, guess there's no fix for this. Is it hard getting used to inverted?

    How to invert controller y axis?

    I'm trying to play GTA III/Vice City with a PS2 controller but the right stick is inverted (up is down, down is up) which was normal back then I believe. Is their any way to reverse this?

    Can't get a stable overclock - BSOD

    Can't get a stable overclock - BSOD

    Would rather not fork out another $150 though. I'll try upping the voltage to 1.17V and see how it goes, thanks.

    Can't get a stable overclock - BSOD

    Also I have all my case fans on silent mode via the bios as it's too loud having them on standard or higher. Fan for the Hyper 212 Evo is a Noctua F12.

    Can't get a stable overclock - BSOD

    I've overclocked my i5-4670k to 4.1ghz with the voltage set to 1.155v and I had a BSOD after an hour on prime95 running blend test. I changed this to 1.157v, 1.160v, 1.162v and even 1.165v and yet I'm having the same problem, the longest I've had prime95 running before BSOD was 6 hours @ 1.160v...

    Why is my i5-4670k so hot at only 4ghz?

    Just upped the multiplier to 4.1ghz and 1.155v and I'm getting the same temps as 4.0ghz 1.125v ... weird.

    Do I change voltage to adaptive when done overclocking?

    Hi. Just wondering if I'm supposed to change the voltage to adaptive when I've found the right multiplier/voltage/temp? Or does it stay on fixed? Thanks.

    Why is my i5-4670k so hot at only 4ghz?

    Thanks. I could probably get 4.2 at 85C but I would rather 4.1 with all the fans set to silent.

    Should a factory overclocked GPU be overclocked further?

    Hi. I bought the ASUS GTX 670 which is factory overclocked from 915mhz base 980mhz boost to 980mhz base 1058mhz boost. This is my first build so I'm just wondering if I should be overclocking it further or is this fine as it is? Thanks.

    Why is my i5-4670k so hot at only 4ghz?

    First build and overclock, I've just been changing the cpu ratio and voltage via the Z87 bios. I also changed the RAM to 1600 before starting if that makes a difference. The i5-4670k is 4ghz @ 1.125 voltages (lowest it will go before BSOD). The temps I'm getting are 75 degrees max on prime95...

    Quiet fan for the hyper 212 evo?

    The fan that comes with the hyper 212 evo has been very loud in my experience (running at around 1300RPM). Any suggestions for a replacement fan that's quiet and also performs well?

    Is this cable management good enough?

    I tried that for the mobo, cpu, gpu extensions and it was going to bend far too much :/

    First build, just wondering if this cable management is good enough? Will be getting cable ties tomorrow for the mobo, gpu, cpu and case headers which should make it a bit better. Thoughts?

    GTA4/SR2 - Get it for PC or 360?

    What do you mean? PC is my preference for most games but I had heard some really bad things about these two. GTA I'll be getting for the PC going by this thread but still not sure about SR2, have heard people say it's the worst port ever lol. Thanks for the replies btw.
