    Grand Theft Auto V Video Card Performance Preview @ [H]

    Definitely want to see the full review, as it sits right now with beta drivers from AMD, this game slays my 295x2 GPU at 2560x1440 on max settings--lots of stuttering. If I use recommended settings the game is perfect. I really expect more out of this GPU so I hope and pray they get the revision...

    In search of a quality Displayport to Mini Displayport cable -- 295x2

    No humidity issues, I am in California (land of the rainless). The cables look otherwise flawless. They have adequate space and I install them with a delicate touch akin to a watchmaker's. Is there a way I can test each pin on these to see what's going on? I don't see any scorching or visible...

    In search of a quality Displayport to Mini Displayport cable -- 295x2

    You sure DVI is 1440? DVI max resolution from a Google query yields 1920x1200; but I don't know about DVI>MiniDP, I will try this next if I can get 1440 on it. Every time I looked up DVI it mentioned that it had to be dual-link for anything above 1920x1200. Just bought one of those, let's roll...

    In search of a quality Displayport to Mini Displayport cable -- 295x2

    Well, my last three cables just crapped out on me in the matter of the past 2 months. I haven't bought hte Sapphire cables yet but I will order those next. I ordered the other recommended cables and same issue. I am starting to think there is an issue elsewhere? Or is it consistent to only get...

    In search of a quality Displayport to Mini Displayport cable -- 295x2

    Ordered this one and another off Amazon so I have a backup. Sucks running my 1440 at 1080 right now since all I had was a HDMI>Mini DP laying around. The cable that just failed on me was a CableMatters cable which has good reviews, but after 30 days in service it failed. :mad: I will...

    In search of a quality Displayport to Mini Displayport cable -- 295x2

    Hello fellow [H] members, I have recently purchased the powerhouse R295x2, but I cannot find a quality cable for the life of me. My last one worked for about 2 weeks. Anyone have a source for quality DP>Mini DP cables? Amazon's cables are garbage with the last ones I ordered failing immediately...

    New build; Upgrades a PC originally built in 2008

    How much more performance can I expect with 1440 resolution and getting a 2nd card? I may just buy the card now. I also see a lot coming up for sale on the FS/T forums for really reasonable prices so it may be a good idea just to pick up two while I'm at it. Can anyone recommend me a good...

    New build; Upgrades a PC originally built in 2008

    I definitely will be playing BF4 and arma3. I think I will crossfire when the r90x drops next year with release of next gen. So maybe within 3 months? Is there a better card on the market right now? I know the nvidia looks promising but reviews didn't really impress me being the price increase...

    New build; Upgrades a PC originally built in 2008

    1. What i5 would you recommend that would have similar performance to the i7 4790K? I heard the i7 tends to OC better than the I5s so that's why I opted for it. Always looking to save some money down the road. 2. I intend to crossfire eventually, should I go down to 850w on the PSU then...
