    34" 21:9 UltraWide Displays (3440x1440) - LG UM95/UM65 & Dell U3415W

    I tried this monitor for a week or so and returned it for a 16:9 monitor. Specifically the Samsung S32D850T. I liked the monitor and the colors, but I found myself having to scroll twice as much as my Dell U3011. I don't game as much as a I used to, so the U3011 monitor was more suited to my...

    Please post your reviews since I am debating on purchasing this monitor and returning my 34UM95.

    Consumer reports is full of it. I saw another video of the same gut bending the iPhone with ease. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJ3Ds6uf0Yg

    Galaxy Abandons North American GPU Market @ [H]

    Thankfully I had the intuition to go with an EVGA instead of Galaxy when I bought my GTX 780. I owned several BFG cards and learned my lesson when they went belly up. I actually ordered a Galaxy GTX 780 card and refused the delivery when UPS showed up at my house. The BFG debacle taught me...

    Just ordered two GIGABYTE 780GHZ should i be worried like this?

    I have the same exact card in one of my systems and it runs great. I actually prefer it to the EVGA GTX 780SC that I have in my other system because Gigabyte's fan profile runs the card at 17% at idle. Whereas, the EVGA 780 runs at 40% at idle. Not a big deal to most people, but to me I could...

    Big Chair for a Big Guy

    I'm 6"3' and weigh about 240lbs. A chair last me about a year and then I have to replace them. I used to buy my chairs from Costco so I could just return them when they broke and get a new one. Then I bought a Markus chair from IKEA for $199.00 and it is still going strong after almost 2...

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 Ti Video Card Review @ [H]

    I can't help but a little shafted since I bought the 780 at full price on the first day of its release. Can someone loan me some Vaseline so it won't hurt so bad.

    AMD Radeon R9 290 Video Card Review @ [H]

    Why does everyone argue over the pros and cons of graphic cards? It just doesn't make any sense. Sure the 290 cards are loud and put our a lot of heat. Everyone can see it in all of the reviews, so arguing with each other about less power or overclocking is pointless. That was the trade off...

    AMD Radeon R9 290 Video Card Review @ [H]

    I'm just commenting on how impressed I am about the card. Of course I am not going to do anything since I would take a loss on my 780. But if I didn't own a 780 then I would be all over that card if and when Asus, MSI, Gigabyte and the others release their versions with custom coolers. The...

    AMD Radeon R9 290 Video Card Review @ [H]

    I am super impressed by the regular 290 and I own a EVGA GTX 780SC. I would buy one if it wasn't for the leaf blower fan setup and having to take a $200.00 plus loss. I don't think a lot of people appreciate how loud that fan is until they hear it. Here is a link to the 290X fan running at...

    Now I can play Frogger the way it was meant to be played. Good Job AMD.

    Do AMD / ATI Drivers really suck??

    Man that is the truth, That is the reason I will never, ever, buy anything made by Asus. I won't touch their tablets, motherboards, graphic cards, nothing. They manufacturer a lot of things, but their support sucks. It is like they create something and then they forget about it. If it is...

    Do AMD / ATI Drivers really suck??

    I guess my previous post about AMD drivers sucking was a little harsh. I had a few drinks last night and was feeling no pain, so I went a little over the top in my post. However, I can say without a doubt that Nvidia drivers seem to be more polished than AMD drivers. The drivers always seemed...

    Do AMD / ATI Drivers really suck??

    I have owned both over the years and I can say without a doubt that AMD drivers suck compared to Nvidia drivers. I have played multiple games on AMD (ATI) card in which stuttering was a big problem and as soon as I switched over to Nvidia the problems went away. I'm not saying Nvidia does not...

    AMD Radeon R9 290X Video Card Review @ [H]

    They should have used something like "Ultra" mode or "BFG" mode. Doesn't really matter because it is a kick ass card. I own a EVGA GTX780-SC card and while I am happy with it, I still have the urge to sell it so I can buy the R9 290X. I've never been a big fan of AMD cards due to their...
