I use a Silverstone Raven 3 myself. I will never go back to a non-rotated motherboard design again. Case temps are great with the vertical airflow and heavy video cards don't sag.

I use a Steel Series Sensei RAW and like it a lot. https://steelseries.com/gaming-mice/sensei-raw

I know that the ultra high res textures are frequently tough to distinguish from regular high-level textures. That fact doesn't dissuade me from wanting to use them. Part of the fun of high-end PC gaming is the ability to turn things up to 11. I think I'm going to order a 980 while I wait...

Say I decide to bite the bullet and pick up a 970 or 980, what brands are preferred these days? My 7970 is a freakin' banshee. I'd prefer something a little quieter this time around.

My cause for hesitation is a game like Shadow of Mordor that, as others have mentioned, can take up 4gb with texture packs. My thinking is that more and more games are going to have similar demands and I like my upgrades to last two years. I just can't see 4gb being enough two years from now...

I've never had an Nvidia SLI setup but back when I had Crossfire'd 6970s I found myself having to disable the second card in a lot of games. For this reason I went with a single 7970. Ideally, I'd like a single card solution. Looks like I'm stuck waiting for the next gen. I can't bring myself...

I've been out of the loop regarding hardware for probably a year. I'm looking for a replacement for my 7970. I game at 1440p/60hz and prefer to have all settings at their maximum. I play Battlefield 4 and will likely pick up Hardline I'd also like to play Shadow of Mordor and FarCry 4...

I'm debating whether to buy a GTX 980 4gb now or wait for this rumored 8gb. I play at 1440p/60Hz and my single 7970 is getting long in the tooth at this resolution

Man, I gotta stop buying headphones. I've purchased 3 pairs since Christmas (All Sennheiser, 1 closed, 1 open, 1 in-ear) yet I'm still incredibly tempted to pull the trigger here. What is wrong with me?

Deal is dead at Amazon. Seems to still be good at Newegg though. This looks like a good buy for someone without a dedicated sound card. I just bit on a $166 Sennheiser PC 360, otherwise I might have been curious enough to try these out. In my experience though, I haven't liked USB sound as...

Deal is dead now.

I don't need to mess with the resolution scale. I was happy with the graphical quality I was getting, just not the fps dips. Since I didn't get the game installed until late last night, I've only played campaign mode so far. I'd have to imagine that multiplayer is even more demanding. All...

I bit on this yesterday. Haven't made it online yet, but man does this game look good at 2560x1440 with Ultra settings. Unfortunately, it makes my Windforce 7970 @ 1050/1375 cry. Now I get to make a tough decision, upgrade or turn down the quality settings. Can a single 780 Ti push this game at...

Yep, sure do. Guess how I found this out? It's my own fault for not reading more and being completely out of the loop when it comes to Battlefield 4. Now I have premium content for a game I don't own. The local Best Buy is sold out, so I can't even go take advantage of that sale. Sigh...
