    What do I need for 4K streaming?

    I second rhansen5_99 on Plex. You can direct play 4K content on some devices. The specifics are here, and below: Container: MP4 Resolution: 3840×2160 or smaller Video Encoding: HEVC (H.265) Video Frame Rate: 30fps Video Bit Depth: 8 There are quite a few limitations on hardware though, so I do...

    Monoprice 32in 4K HDR IPS Monitor

    I ran 2 of the Monoprice Zero-G 1440p monitors up until .. Last week actually lol (Finally making the move to 4k) - Brightness on it was 440 cd/m². And yeah, that bezel.... The biggest thing I can't figure out on the Monoprice 4K is the 2ms response time listed in the specs. A standard 27" IPS...

    System won't boot after changing any setting in BIOS

    If the issue is only in changing BIOS settings, you MAY be able to reflash the BIOS and see if that fixes things for you. Of course, with a BIOS that's not behaving properly to begin with, flashing the BIOS is even more risky than usual, so proceed with caution and be prepared to have to swap...

    Videocards that support 2+ DVI monitors

    Awesome - Thanks! All of them have such mixed reviews, so I suppose it may depend on your individual setup, but I will definitely keep this one in mind.

    Recent(terrible) customer support experience with ASUS

    I'll second that on Toshiba. Sent in my laptop several years ago for an RMA for an issue on their BIOS locking you out with no BIOS password set (known issue) and got my laptop back with all sorts of phantom power issues (plug in a USB device, instantly crash your system) - I now avoid Toshiba...

    Videocards that support 2+ DVI monitors

    Do you happen to know which adapter you have? It'd be good to know which one handles 120hz without an issue for my own reference.

    Sli 1080ti 50% util

    It sounds like you have a non-HB bridge. You'd have to buy the HB bridge separately in most cases. This is what the ASUS HB Bridge looks like and it runs ~$50 for one new.

    how do I rearrange gpu 1 and 2 in windows?

    That's unusual. All the documentation I can find, and my personal experience (albeit not on x399) has been that whichever card is in the top slot is your master card in an SLI setup, and that's not something you can change. There were a lot of complaints about the top card having worse airflow...

    Videocards that support 2+ DVI monitors

    Essentially DVI-D removed the analog signal from the port. DVI-I supported either digital signals or analog (using a DVI-I to VGA adapter for example) and DVI-D removed that functionality in favor of 100% digital signal. DP to DVI-D cords may or may not work properly depending on your setup. I...

    Help with DP to DVI Adapter, can't get signal.

    None that I'm aware of on any board I've seen. I have a similar issue in that I run a dual monitor setup and prefer my taskbar not be on the "primary" monitor. Unfortunately, every time I turn my monitors off, the "main" taskbar is moved to the primary monitor again because the monitors are...

    Help with DP to DVI Adapter, can't get signal.

    In all honesty, I'd probably go with the monitor over the adapter. Like Kyle said, these adapters are all pretty iffy in terms of functionality, especially in the long term. The new monitor would probably also give you better picture quality and will last much longer than an older monitor+DP...

    Help with DP to DVI Adapter, can't get signal.

    Which adapters have you tried already? I'd like to take a look at the specs on them if you don't mind. The main issue with DP to anything is convincing the DP that the port is in use and the monitor is on, since DP disables the port when a monitor isn't detected. That's likely why they wanted...

    Videocards that support 2+ DVI monitors

    The only way I'm aware of to get a secondary DVI-D port on a 1080/TI without sacrificing the actual dual link functionality is to get an active DisplayPort adapter, but those are neither cheap, nor 100% reliable from my understanding. This one from StarTech is about the highest rated one I can...
