    Which card(s) for 1080p@120Hz?

    Just wanted to share with you having bought a Sapphire HD 6990 and exchanged previous Gainward GTX-580 Phantom. 6970s were not available at my dealer so there was nothing to decide. ;-) All I can say is wow, everything is fine now running 1920x1080@120Hz where the NV card was only able to do...

    Which card(s) for 1080p@120Hz?

    Fair enough and good point. The 79xx (and NV 6xx) series are supposed to be released by mid 2012. So two 6970 or 6950 will hopefully do for the moment. So today is dedicated to check availability of waterblocks. Is there any chance to see available crossfire profiles at one glance? Checked the...

    Which card(s) for 1080p@120Hz?

    Thank you very much for your clear statements, guys. So what do you think about 1 HD 6990 and adding another 6970 probably later? Am I wrong assuming that it would be a bit of wasting money in the worst case? I just wonder what I would do if buying two 6970 now to find out, that I would have...

    Samsung S27A750D 120Hz

    Just another question: The AMD/ATi I am aiming at has a mini-DP. So I need a mini-DP to DP adapter and should be good to go for 120Hz?

    Samsung S27A750D 120Hz

    OK, thanks. I have been on 285.38 as well and tried to change the resolution from the Win7 control panel itself. I am already about to order ATIs on Monday and opened a thread in the ATI graphic cards forum. At least I do not know what to buy. A 6990 only or an additional 6970 to reduce the...

    Which card(s) for 1080p@120Hz?

    Thanks, Samuel. Yes I know micro stutter being a dual GPU issue only, thus my thoughts on what to buy. I am afraid a single GPU not to suffice for high FPS gaming on the aimed resolution. Therefore my thoughts go into the 6990 direction. The question is whether I should go for an additional...

    Which card(s) for 1080p@120Hz?

    Hi all First of all I confess I have been a NVIDIA fan for my gamer's life ((at least 25 yrs) long, never used Radeon and would never have done but... I recently bought the Samsung S23A750D display to exchange the BX226CW. The glossy style is fine for me and I was (and still I am) keen on...

    Samsung S27A750D 120Hz

    Vega, I am a bit puzzled due to your statement having BIOS post issues but none on desktop/gaming level. I was fumbling around until late evening yesterday with 2 different displayport cables, plugging/unplugging, installing beta drivers and last WHQL but it remains the same: max resolution...

    Samsung S27A750D 120Hz

    Hey guys I have been following this thread for quite some time and managed to buy the "little brother" S23A750D. As I believe my problem to be systematically I use this thread due to more participation. So please forgive. ;-) The display is connected to a DVI->HDMI cable and everything works...
