    Monitors with the new DisplayPort 1.3 and HDMI 2.0

    Bump. Are there any DP 1.3 monitors already in pipeline? And are GPUs (either discrete or integrated) already capable of DP 1.3? In meantime, VESA already standardised DP 1.4a.

    Just ordered my Dell UHD 24 Monitor UP2414Q

    Do 4K monitors in general run very "hot"? Or is it just UP2414Q? I reduced brightness to 40, but compared to HP ZR2440W (at 100 brightness) it still feels like an oven. PS. I did expect somewhat warmer screen due to the density of it all, but certainly not this.

    I take it you mean Linux. :) What about OS X in portrait?

    4K Surround, nice! But what about Linux and OS X? Could you try it on those OSs?

    Just ordered my Dell UHD 24 Monitor UP2414Q

    What about the portrait-mode being only at 30 Hz? Nobody else tried it? That's a deal breaker.

    Just ordered my Dell UHD 24 Monitor UP2414Q

    So it's true after all. One reviewer (Jeff R.) on Newegg also mentions this issue: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824260145 Anybody managed to get 60 Hz in portrait? PS. Is there really going to be not a single 16:10 4k monitor (3840 x 2400)? :(

    TVs with DVB-S(2) tuners: can they control a motorized dish?

    Zangmonkey, thank you (very) much for your help. Much appreciated. Still, if anybody has some knowledge on these built-in tuners, please don't hesitate to reply.

    TVs with DVB-S(2) tuners: can they control a motorized dish?

    Please, does anybody know how much functionality/capability do those built-in tuners have? I guess not much (how much?), otherwise people wouldn't be buying discrete/separate DVB-S[2] tuners ... or would they? :)

    TVs with DVB-S(2) tuners: can they control a motorized dish?

    Do modern built-in DVB-S tuners allow for DiSEqC / USALS control of motorized satellite dishes? If they do, there is no need for HTPC internal DVB-S(2) tuner, is there? :confused: I mean, except if you'd want to record something (or does the TV's built-in tuner do this also)? PS. I did...

    ASUS Eee Pad Transformer coming Tuesday 4/26

    Indeed, SR45 read the Book of Revelations: “Woe to you O earth and sea, for the Devil sends the Beast with wrath, because he knows the time is short. Let him who hath understanding reckon the Number of the Beast, for it is a human number. Its number is six-hundred and sixty-six.” ;)

    BSOD only when all slots full

    Just done MEMTESTing (v4.10) as Mike Clements instructed me to. All MEMTESTing was done with DRAM voltage @ 1.85V and MCH/NB voltage @ 1.40V (stock @ 1.80V and @ 1.25V, respectively). module (1st "old"): _5 passes - no errors. [ photo ] (All photos @ imageshack.us.) module (2nd "old"): 10...

    BSOD only when all slots full

    This idea does help (I wouldn't thought of it). Indeed, even if I don't have a 2nd comparable (with DDR2-800 support) MB, I could cheaply get a used one (and while am at it, use it to build a "new" PC for my father). I'll go and see what's on sale.

    HP ZR24w

    :eek: OK, you've convinced me ... I'll go the HDMI to DVI route. :)

    HP ZR24w

    HD 5450 ---> HDMI output ---> HDMI to DP cable ---> DP input ---> HP ZR24w. Can I tell the GPU to send DP signal through the HDMI output? :)
