Thanks, I appreciate the response

No, my 1st choice is the MSI 7970, I want to know if the Display port to DVI-D adapter that it comes with is an ACTIVE adapter, if it is not, I will go with the Asus 7970 as it can do dual DVI-D. I dont want to spend another 50 bucks on an active adapter for using tne MSI. I am not pursuing any...

Sorry to hijack my own post, but its getting buried

I cant attest to your statement, I dont know that much about that subject, but Id sure like an answer to my point though if you have one? Thanks

I have a 30" monitor and running 2560 x 1600, and its only interface is Dual DVI-D, now I am very interested in the MSI 7970 Lightning but its only single DVI-D out. If you go to newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127670 They show a mini display port to DVI...

Yeah, I to caught the "look at us we are pci-e 3.0 twice the bandwidth" a couple of months ago, and was hyped up to implement it in my new rig. I had that mentality today as I was in the process of doing a return on my (still in the box) i5 2500k, so I could get the IVY because I am soon buying...

Im definatley planning on overclocking, using a Corsair H100 CPU cooler. I have been reading all day about the heat issues on the i5 3570k, seems anything over 4.7 will be problematic. Im aiming for 4.8 or better if I can. My primary concern was I wanted to get the most hourse power out of my HD...

Heres my case, Im in the middle of a new build, I purchased an 15 2500k, my MOBO has PCIe-3, and im waiting to buy an HD 7970. I plan on running a 30" monitor at 2560 x 1600, and a 24" touch screen monitor to run Helious for DCS Warthog (combat flight sim). I was just about to send back the...

Heres how to fix the joystick issues: http://segmentnext.com/index.php/2010/03/07/battlefield-bad-company-2-control-fixes/ the only thing I cant fix yet is the "Free Look", I have a Cougar HOTAS, I programmed it to emulate the keyboard command,, but no luck,, still scratching my head on that...

Yeah,, the 5850 looks pretty sweet,,, 5870 is a tad bit more than I want to pay,,, i noticed HDMI out and DVI,,, any difference in bandwith between the 2? This time around I opted not to get a 30" monitor with HDMI in,,, never used it for anything. just paln on hooking up a dual monitor config...

Hi, my existing 30” Gateway monitor has died, I will be replacing it with a 30” LG W3000H. While im at it, I decided that maybe I could upgrade my 2 year old EVGA 8800GTS (if its worth it?). I use the PC primarily for gaming, COD4, MW2, and combat flight sims like Blackshark. I like the high...

hi evileye, I have read your posting and I am very interested in your opinion. I admit I dont know squat about monitor specs as much as most on here, but I have a PC built for gaming,, my 30"Gateway XHD3000 died and I need a replacement. I was looking at the Dell Ultra Sharp 3008WFP, and I have...

Well ,,, I missed this 1 I guess,,, says its expired

Well ,, I read all that, hoping I would not have to ask, but I am not clear as to what I should do? I need some advice, I have just finished receiving all my new PC parts and was in the process of putting it together. I have an Intel Q6600 CPU going on a GIGABYTE GA-X38-DQ6 LGA 775 Intel X38...
