Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
I've had problems like that when running LAN parties. We've solved the issue by getting a long extension cord to run to power outlets on different circuit breakers and splitting the PCs up.
Since your monitors are 1920x1080, you can use the $27 Active DisplayPort adapter. If you had a higher resolution or Hz, you would need the $100 adapter.
I have three 1080P monitors and the $27 adapter works just fine. It's a minor consolation for having the inferior resolution of 1920x1080...
1. Either
2. The (Performance / Price) ratio is the most important thing to me.
3. Yes, but I don't upgrade to a new $500 card with every generation release. I upgrade when the games I play start to show some performance drops.
4. I make extensive use of reviews.
Doesn't really matter how much of the internet community he has for moral support; if the judge is willing to give Sony everything they want, he's screwed if he stays in America.
Did anyone order this from Amazon and actually get it? I made the mistake of ordering on Amazon instead of Newegg since I get free 2-day shipping with Prime, but didn't realize it was sold by "The Price Pros" and only fulfilled by Amazon so it had an estimated 3+ weeks before it shipped out . ...
This build is the [H]ardest of the [H]ard. Sub'd.
Looking forward to seeing more pictures and info as you get it all setup and play around with it more :)
This is correct. Any 5000/6000 series card can support a maximum of two non-displayport monitors. However, some of the cards only have a single displayport on the card itself, so be aware. For example, the 5770 has only 1 displayport port on the card, so it can power a maximum of 3 monitors...
I've had no driver and compatibility issues at all with my 5770s.
A few months ago I had the cursor corruption bug that plagued multi-monitor setups, but it hasn't shown up for a long time with more recent drivers.
I use the Sapphire adapter which is on Newegg for $27 shipped, and it works just fine. I'm sure the Asus one works fine as well--by this point it seems that most of the issues with active DP adapters have been sorted out.
