I'm thinking about putting my dad together a cheap build for father's day/his birthday. All he really uses the computer for is checking his e-mail, browsing simple webpages, and watching the occasional YT vid here and there. 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web...

One have one monitor, but I play WoW so if I have WoW open and no videos in Firefox open, its at 775MHz and as soon as I open a vid it drops to 300MHz even with WoW still open and playing

Does anyone know why Radeon 6850/6950s down clock while watching any video (YouTube mainly) when you have a game open? And is there any way to prevent this?

I bought a G930 around 3 weeks ago and it's been excellent. Used it mainly on W7 64-bit Ultimate and an older W7 Pro 64-bit. All was well.

Well I unplugged the monitor and plugged it back into the outlet and for some reason it's working fine now. Weird.

yeah it doesn't fit the screen at 0% and I can't find any scaling options in my monitor settings. Maybe I need to get a different monitor, idk

I just built a new computer and I'm having trouble getting my screen picture to fit my monitor. I bought the Hanns.G 25 inch 1080p monitor from newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824254048&cm_re=hanns_g-_-24-254-048-_-Product and a XFX Radeon 6950 also. I CAN get the...
