    OFFICIAL: BF4 Mantle Cat 14.1 Performance and Feedback Thread

    @A_N_D_Y I'm getting artifacts too using a Diamond R9 290X (reference). I get them on my Windows taskbar, mainly when I'm browsing in Chrome while tabbed out of a game. I also experience the known issue of stuttering using Mantle in BF4, no surprise here I bet. I have a custom fan profile...

    Post your workstations 2011

    I dub it my media server machine / mobile rig. It's a Lian Li PC-354b. Good eye, yeah that blue switch is a cheap Trendnet KVM switch, I just use the USB switch off of it, not even the VGA.. lol. You are right on dual displays, each rig has it's GPU plugged into both monitors. Anyone using...

    Post your workstations 2011

    There is a phillips screw in between the clamp locking mechanism on the stock HD 595 headset stand w/ clamp. Here is a photo of the stock HD 595 headset stand w/ the clamp. Just imagine a phillips screw in the wall and that clamp locking into the screw. I think I may have partially damaged...

    2 stuck/dead pixels

    I would suggest trying a pixel massage. I've never personally had luck when trying this but I've only tried it twice on two different displays. You should look into JScreenFix and also UDPixel. Google both of those. /edit I should note, if a pixel is dead, no massage or software will help...

    Just how bad is my E8600 holding back my GTX570SC?

    I'd say if you're playing a modern game like Bad Company 2 that utilizes more than 2 cores then the simple answer is yes, your current CPU is bottlenecking your GPU. Not all games will have their physics, sound, networking, etc. in different threads - Games coded like this won't show an...

    First SLI build - want to build by end of month

    It may be a rumor, I read it in this article at Anandtech Sandy Bridge Buyer’s Guide I was hoping that Bulldozer would be out by now. The first PC I put together was an AMD socket A machine, I had a great time with it. I'm afraid I will give in and buy one of the new AMD CPU's.

    The good old Q6600

    I just bought a Q6600 G0 on the [H] trade forum last week for a friend. He upgraded from a C2D E6420 to hopefully see a difference in Bad Company 2... Now BC2 plays perfect for him, no more stuttering. It's interesting, he has a GTX 260 and he had less performance in BC2 with the GTX 260...

    New Lian Li PC-V354 m.atx case : Specification & Feature

    I wish I had an exact measurement. You shouldn't have any issues getting a long GPU in this case, as long as it's not a card like an MSI Lightning series card. You can fit a 5970 in this case, which I believe is about the same length as a GTX 590. Take a look at the case from this shot...

    New Lian Li PC-V354 m.atx case : Specification & Feature

    I chose the EVO over the Pro/CSM version because it has (1) PCI and (1) PCI-Express x4 slot (not including the 2 x16 slots, with 1 running at x4). Also the EVO does have display port and I noticed the Pro/CSM version doesn't have VRM heatsinks on all the power/mosfet area of the socket while...

    New Lian Li PC-V354 m.atx case : Specification & Feature

    I recently purchased this case for an HTPC / portable rig. There is tons of information in this thread that will help anyone deciding to build using this case, thanks to everyone posting in this thread. I noticed the Noctua NH-U9B 92MM HS/F is very popular for putting in this case. I go...
