    Gigabyte 970 G1 Gaming rev 1.0 vs 1.1

    Ditto, no whine here with rev 1.0, plus core clock is 1404Mhz on default, measured under load. If I remember correctly Gigabyte stated that there was a switch between component manufacturers, it's often done to lower manufacturing cost.

    [H] users 7950 Overclock Results

    I think the problem is the absence of a standard for benchmarking maximum overclocks. My Sapphire HD 7950 OC can run Unigine or Kombustor all night at 1025 (stock voltage), yet anything more than 990 makes it crash in Crysis 2. Not immediately, it takes a hour or more at 1000 for example, but...

    Best stability testing method?

    Playing Crysis 2 DX11 max settings + HD textures to test my overclcoks, it's the most demanding game I have. Weird thing is when it crashes it usually crashes during cut scenes and not while actually playing.:confused:

    Can MSI Afterburner and Sapphire Trixx coexist on the same PC?

    Thanks, I did as you suggested, Unigine seems stable on 1025 mhz (maxed settings, 1920x1200 resolution, running for 1 hour) but in games (Crysis 2 DX11, Witcher 2) the highest I could go without artifacts and crashes (black screens in TW2 lasting 10-20 seconds after which the game would recover...

    Can MSI Afterburner and Sapphire Trixx coexist on the same PC?

    Well, to be precise the reason for my question is I've been experimenting with overclocking my card, testing the clocks in Unigine Heaven. And the results were outstanding, I managed to hit 1100mhz on STOCK VOLTAGE. That's when I realized tha despite Trixx and GpuZ showing the increased...

    Can MSI Afterburner and Sapphire Trixx coexist on the same PC?

    Hi, n00b question of course but can I have both utilities installed without incurring into truble? My card is a Sapphire HD 7950 OC.

    The Witcher 2: Enhanced Edition Performance & IQ Review @ [H]

    There's another stunning DX9 game, incidentally also polish, but since's it's a hardcore old school FPS one can't spend lots of time marveling at it's graphic or it's instant game over. :p I'm talking about Hard Reset (Extended Edition). While it lacks Ubersampling it's a game that manages to...

    Dell U2412M

    This might be a stupid answer. I too noticed on my Dell that near the bezel the white color turns to slightly yellowish, The culprit might be the bezel pressure on the panel but what if the display is just dirty? I imagine that in the manufacturing plant, before each display is put in it's...

    24" IPS monitors with light AG?

    Thanks for the in-depth reply, I'm keeping my U2412M. I'm already spoiled by it's real estate compared to my old 20" NEC (took just 2-3 evenings). I'm using the monitor exclusively for leisure (got several Samsungs and Dells on work, they're used mainly for text and audio editing) and though...

    24" IPS monitors with light AG?

    Anybody had the chance to compare the Samsung S24A850D to the DELL U2412M side by side? Anti glare coating aside I'm curious if the Samsung's higher price (200 euros difference where I live) is justified by it's quality and features.

    Dell U2412M

    I'd say a NVIDIA GTX 560 TI or a an ATI HD 6950 should allow you to play many games maxed out on a 24". New gen GPU's should be out soon though, so maybe you should wait a month or two for the current gen cards prices to drop. I'm no monitor expert, I only lurk here for useful info, but probably...

    Dell U2412M

    True, I have both consoles but I never bothered to connect them to a monitor, neither my old NEC nor the new DELL are provided with HDMI input. I do prefer playing pc games in 16:9 with black bars though, to 16:10. Yup, glow was violet in my case but almost unnoticeable cause of the NEC's...

    Dell U2412M

    It can't, it has a limited scaler that doesn't support 16:9. 16:9 can only be achieved through the GPU scaler. Got my U2412M today, no disturbing backlight bleed but lots of IPS glow that can be mistaken for BB. My four years old NEC LCD20WGX2 had none of either:(

    OMFG!!! $3 for a preview.....

    I bought the preview, since I've been waiting for a serious review of the HP ZR2440W since summer. But I found out it's just another "recession times" IPS. Looks like I'll be keeping my old NEC LCD20WGX2 for another 6-12 months. :rolleyes:
