    connecting 2 managed switches?

    I currently have two 8-port un-managed switches (one in living room, one in office) that are connected by a single CAT6 cable I ran on the outside of the house. Each room has roughly 8 ethernet devices. I want to utilize the guest network wifi feature on my apple airport express / pfsense...

    DVI Adapter to Displayport 2560x1440

    I searched around on amazon. Would it be easier to go from DVI to HDMI instead?

    DVI Adapter to Displayport 2560x1440

    I want to hook up a 3rd Dell U2715H to my Geforce GTX660 via the DVI port on my graphics card to a displayport on the monitor. I have hooked up 2 of the U2715H together using a single DP via MST daisy chain, except the second monitor will not wake up from sleep. So currently I have one...

    How do you guys like the ultrawides for gaming?

    Yeah 27" 16:9. It was just hard for me to acclimate to a 34" because at once point I used my 3x24" in portrait mode. Doing so allowed me to maximize 3 windows on 3 portrait displays. When i used the 34", the width felt the same as 3x24 portrait, but the height felt really short. And then the...

    How do you guys like the ultrawides for gaming?

    I dont think any blizzard games support 21:9, and i recall having to play with black bars on the side. Also, watching regular tv shows at 16:9 placed black bars on the side. I returned my 34" and got a 27".

    Dual to single suggestions

    The benq you linked is 16:9 aspect ratio, so you will still be missing the "160 pixels" from 16:10. Do you game? Do you use windows 10? 4k High DPI is not quite ready for main stream. You will be an early adopter and the experience you have will be based on your expectations. I would...

    Dual to single suggestions

    There are very few monitors left at the 16:10 aspect ratio and 95-100 DPI range. The only popular ones left are: 24" 1920x1200 16:10 30" 2560x1440 16:10 The 27" and 34" are at 109 DPI and are 16:9 or 21:9 respectively. You will loose that 160 pixel of vertical, and the font will be 10%...

    New Samsung 4k for everyone.

    Can someone clarify what is the "cheapest" video card today I can get to power one of these Samsung units properly? Would a GTX 960 work?

    Z97 HDMI 1.4 to DP 1.2 Adapter for 2560x1440? Will it work?

    There are a lot of laptop users trying to push HDMI out to the U2713HM at 2560x1440 using registry hacks and setting custom timings. It appears there is no problems if you hack it at 55hz. I've seen other posts about going from HDMI to DVI and creating custom timings. I'm not interested in...

    Z97 HDMI 1.4 to DP 1.2 Adapter for 2560x1440? Will it work?

    Thanks for the response. I'm still shocked Dell would provide HDMI that only does 1080p on a 2560x1440 monitor. Looks like i'll either swap out the motherboard, or put in a < $100 graphics card.

    Z97 HDMI 1.4 to DP 1.2 Adapter for 2560x1440? Will it work?

    If the adapter does work, for $30 + $10 for an HDMI cable. Would it be better just to buy a ~ $50-$100 video card and not use the integrated intel graphics?

    Z97 HDMI 1.4 to DP 1.2 Adapter for 2560x1440? Will it work?

    In my haste of building my parents a new PC. I built a simple Haswell i5 using the Z97 chipset, and now after setting it up there is no way to drive their Dell U2713HM @ 2560x1440: The Z97 motherboard has: 1 x DVI-D port, supporting a maximum resolution of 1920x1200@60Hz 1 x HDMI port...

    flexraid and streaming

    If you use FlexRaid Transparent RAID, it will be significantly slower then the regular speed of a single drive. It will probably be much slower then your Windows Raid 1 Mirror.

    Pro Calibration VS. "Suggested Settings" Calibration

    The pro calibration is not worth it. It is calibrated to each of your sources. If you were to replace your cable box, or bluray drive, or upgrade your ps3 to a ps4, you may need to calibrate again. I bought a Spyder 3 off a slickdeals and followed the DIY method. It was a steep learning...
