    Haswell Cooler?

    I have an H110 that totally screws my computer using voodoo magic, so I'm stuck with the stock cooler. If I play intensive games for too long (FarCry 3, for example) it starts overheating, and I don't feel comfortable playing with spikes into and just above 90degC. I need a new cooler that...

    GTX Titan BSOD 116/TDR Crashing

    I have a modular PSU (Silencer III by PC Power and Cooling), and I tried switching cables and ports previously which did nothing for me. Do you mean the power to the GPU, I assume? My case with Corsair has been escalated to the manager - hopefully I will see some kind of results from this...

    GTX Titan BSOD 116/TDR Crashing

    Removing the cooler and reinstalling the stock cooler seems to have completely removed the problem. I'd tried this in the past but perhaps the stock cooler was not quite tightly affixed, as the temperatures then made anything that would cause a crash unusable (so I couldn't determine whether the...

    GTX Titan BSOD 116/TDR Crashing

    I already did that, dude. It's not the card.. (Edit: to clarify, the 285 *DID* show some issues toward the end of my using it, it was just far rarer. I imagine this has to do with different amounts/directions of torsion on the motherboard from the GPU's weight distribution. Depending on the...

    GTX Titan BSOD 116/TDR Crashing

    I bought and installed Spelunky. I ran Spelunky, and it minimized itself. I brought it back up, and it crashed. I opened the game again, and had a 7E BSOD. I rebooted, browsed the web a bit, then opened a Youtube video and had a display recovery. -_-

    My Good "OLD" Sysytem

    I'd upgrade the GPU a bit - conservatively - and then upgrade the whole system when you can. I made a similar jump recently. Old System: Q6950 @ 3Ghz (had to get that cache! lol.. small OC, 1:1 FSB/DRAM which seemed clever but I don't know if it was good, bad, or relevant) 10GB DDR2 1066Mhz...

    Don't Get A Dell S2240L

    I never had, either - granted I haven't owned a ton of IPS displays, just the S2220T and my iPhone 5 before this S2240L. When new, the only complaint I ever had about the S2220T was while the black levels were phenomenal (allowing me to accept LCDs over CRTs for the first time) the near-black...

    Haswell - What is SIO temperature?

    The motherboard reports the same temps (and set thereof) in the BIOS - the Intel app literally just reads the hardware sensors and shows them in Windows, so it's as reliable as the sensors.. Unless you mean using an infrared thermometer or something - which would require that I knew WTF SIO...

    Is buying any high end video card with < 6g Ram a bad idea with 4k on the horizon?

    I've never heard of this "4K" nonsense - is that the non-Apple term for the Retina technology where you run a crazy DPI-scaled resolution? I imagine it would be similar to running a game with FXAA/MLAA on. With my TITAN I run things with FXAA, 32xCSAA, 8xSSAA all set to "enhance" and then...

    Holy crap, it worked! Dead video card, resurrected!

    Whole laptop? Can't say I've ever heard of anybody doing that, rofl. I have a Gateway laptop (that one that shattered the gaming laptop market pricing a few years ago and was instantly replaced by newer models, lol) that suddenly started failing to output video without massive issues on...

    S2220T Backlight Replacement?

    Anybody have any info about doing this? My S2220T is still my best panel and it's backlight is pretty weak now. I had the thought of trying to put the panel in the S2240L casing with its nice LED backlight, but I don't know if they use the same wiring or can even be made to.

    Don't Get A Dell S2240L

    They have AWFUL light->dark response time. It's enough that on any game with bright backgrounds and dark objects it is *distracting*. Brilliant monitor otherwise, and if it weren't for this it would easily replace my S2220T with the dead pixel and now-weak backlight. I just figured I'd post...

    Holy crap, it worked! Dead video card, resurrected!

    I have *two* dead 8800GTX cards, one of which a first-run OC'd model that cost me a fortune when it came out.. I should try this - not super-important to me at this point but it would be nice to get them working. One was a friend's, so I never had them in SLI (haven't had anything in SLI ever...
