    Upgrading

    I've been thinking about upgrading to 2x GTX 660ti's in SLI in my gaming machine. I'm afraid my current ASUS VE278Q monitor won't be able to preform up to par with that setup.

    HTPC/NAS Build

    Sorry for the necro but I figured this would be the best place to ask since the history is here. I want to upgrade the CPU in my HTPC/Sever and take the old CPU and put it in my soon to be NAS. I use a lot of virtual machines on the HTPC/server so I'd like to have more processing power. My...

    Best card for the money to replace a 570GTX?

    Haha, I don't mind sinking money into something I enjoying doing. I've been pretty addicted to BF3 lately so I want the best image possible. That 7970 does look good, thanks for the suggestions.

    Best card for the money to replace a 570GTX?

    Playing at 1920x1080 on an ASUS VE278Q 27". Budget? I'd say no more than $600 but if there is a deal to be had then so be it.

    Best card for the money to replace a 570GTX?

    I've noticed some screen tearing with vsync on playing BF3. Should that even happen? I was looking to upgrade or SLI not sure what I should do. Looking for most bang for the buck.

    Monitoring Software?

    Bump, I'd use whs11 but the ssd isn't big ebough. Might revert back to a large spindle drive just to install it. Does anyone have anything good to say about whs11? I'm also running a vm on unbuntu on this box that hosts some services as well.
