    GPU for 3-way 1440p

    Thank you everyone for helping me out. I apologize for how scattered my earlier questions were, but I wasn't fully comprehending the information I was reading. Long story short; it appears that a single 1070 should be enough for my purposes. With a 1070 I can run three 1440p monitors and do...

    GPU for 3-way 1440p

    So, just to be clear; it is possible to run three 1440p monitors using a single GTX 1070 AND do some light gaming? I don't expect to run RotTR at 100fps on all three screens on Ultra settings. But it is possible to play that or similar games at "normal" settings, correct? If so, then would...

    GPU for 3-way 1440p

    Do you have to have GPUs in SLI in order to use them in the same computer?

    GPU for 3-way 1440p

    Thanks in advance for any/all help and advice. I'm currently speccing out a new build and am hung up on whether a single 1070 is best for me, or if I should get dual 1060s. The problem is that my current setup has two graphics cards connected to three 1440p monitors and I don't know if a...

    New HTPC Build Advice

    That's weird. HardForum keeps altering my bitly links by removing half the link info. Fixed it by pasting in the full Amazon link to the Kingston RAM in question.

    New HTPC Build Advice

    Dangman, I mistyped about the fan. I know you mentioned the Arctic Cooling fans, I have no idea why I wrote Cooler Master. I must have been more tired than I thought. I get what you're saying about the RAM, but I like to have my RAM in pairs, so I've done a little more research and think I'm...

    New HTPC Build Advice

    Adding extra case fans was something I was thinking of doing, so I'm glad you mentioned it. However, I was looking at the Vantec Thermoflow, which is $2 cheaper than the Cooler Master you mention. Not a great savings, I know. But the Vantec has better ratings on the Egg so that's what I was...

    New HTPC Build Advice

    Dangman, Awesome, detailed advice! I really appreciate it. Your thoughts on the CPU are tracking my own, I just didn't know enough about the processor differences to make up my mind until you explained them. Based on your advice, I'm switching to the i3-4130. I understand your criticism...

    New HTPC Build Advice

    So, after much research today I've come up with the beginnings of a build list. However, I have one glaring omission. A motherboard. What I'm looking for is a good micro ATX board that has very good onboard audio. Here's where my build currently stands: Case: SilverStone LC10E CPU: Intel...
