    CPU Temp on new Intel 6850k build??

    Thanks for the feedback. This is my first new build since a 3770k in 2012. Was not sure what these new CPU's were running at from a starting point.

    CPU Temp on new Intel 6850k build??

    The reading in original post s from ASUS motherboard BIOS. When running CoreTempGT 1.4, it says all six cores are at 19C to 22C with nothing running except the usual Windows background processes.

    CPU Temp on new Intel 6850k build??

    Just finished a new build. Asus X99 Deluxe II. 6850K and Noctua NH U12P with two 120 mm fans. CPU Fans in standard mode and very quiet. About 950rpm each. Have the sides of Fractal R5 case open right now. Idle temp is 33C. Mobo temp 28 C. Room Temp is around 21C. Is this a good starting...

    HP zr30w software versus hardware calibration questions

    I debated about many of the 27" models out there, but coming from a 24" 16X10 format before, going to 27" 16X9 format just did not seem like that much of an upgrade. Very happy with the 30" size and resolution. The AG coating can be noticed on pure white backgrounds if you look for it, but...

    HP zr30w software versus hardware calibration questions

    Update for anyone interested. The Xrite is a nice quality piece of gear and the software is fairly easy to use. I now have my monitor calibrated and it seems to be a great balance between great colors, good contrast, and luminance that is easy for longer sessions. Ended up at 150 luminance for...

    HP zr30w software versus hardware calibration questions

    Decided to pick up the Xrite iOne Display Pro calibration kit. It is $219 on Ebay and then there is a $50 rebate so getting it for $169. Worth trying to see how it works.

    HP zr30w software versus hardware calibration questions

    Just picked up a used HP zr30w in mint shape. I am coming form a Double sight 24" PVA 16X10 (Samsung) screen which I enjoyed for a few years. The HP has no OSD, and only a hardware Brightness control up or down. Looking for tips on setting it up. I have it hooked up to an Intel HD 4000...

    Apple 27" LED Cinema Display

    Thanks for the response. My PC is in a basement rec room area with no big windows or a lot of light other than lamps. The glossy screen should be fine.

    Apple 27" LED Cinema Display

    Have browsed through several pages of this thread. I have a specific question. Sorry if it was addressed and I missed it. Will the ACD work with Intel HD4000 onboard graphics with a standard Display Port output? If so, what specific adapter cable would you recommend or can I use any female...

    ASUS PB278Q 1440p IPS (PLS Panel)

    Apparently these have issues also with BLB and imgae retention.:confused: I can get a u2713hm for $650 new. I was leaning toward it until the reports came in about it here. The end users feedback here at least is not good. On the other hand- the more I read here about any monitor - the more I...

    ASUS PB278Q 1440p IPS (PLS Panel)

    Honestly have no idea why anyone would buy one of these based upon the user reports. I guess if you are willing to keep swapping units you might get lucky. Unfortunately- the other available semi-glossy non-Korean choices form Dell and Samsung are just as bad.

    ZR2740W vs. Glossy IPS?

    I finally talked to someone in Business Tech Support. He did not know and said they do not get that information if they are sourcing different panels now- he only could verify that the "specs" had not changed which does not really address if they are using a different panel or AG coating. Maybe...

    ZR2740W vs. Glossy IPS?

    I sent an email to HP Tech Support asking them if there was a change and if so, when.

    ASUS PB278Q 1440p IPS (PLS Panel)

    Could be correct. Kind of unnerving when one goes to order.
