Just wanted to know how many of you guys who upgraded to Pascal are happy with your investment/upgrade. I upgraded from GTX780 SLI to GTX1080 SLI and although I am very happy but I'm also "less than awed" of the boost in performance. That is not a criticism mind you, the reason I say that is...

Guys I'm up my neck in this, I just bought the Gears of War 4 for my PC this morning. I got an email confirmation which thanked me for buying the game and confirmed receipt of payment. When I look at the GOW4 page at the Microsoft Windows Store, is see "You Own This". My question is, where is...

Have been browsing the various GTX1080 AIB boards for comparison on the web - Asus ROG Strix, MSI X-Gaming, Gigabyte GI Gaming, Palit Super Jetstream & Zotac Amp Edition (we don't have EVGAs or Gainward in our region) and found that the ROG Strix has the highest factory overclock as well as...

I just browsed YouTube for benchmark comparisons between reference 1080FE and Custom 1080s with factory overclocks. The OCed benefits is about an average of +3-5 fps, depending on the games but most of the time its just a 3 fps improvement. So is it really worth it going for a custom board? I...

I googled to find out but couldn't find any image samples on the web. Reason I asked is I'm planning to get the Acer X34 Predator monitor and am wondering how games running in 1080p would look like on a 34" UltraWide screen. Will I see just black bars at the sides, or will I also see black bars...

I have a i7-4770K @ 4.2 Ghz + 2x GTX 780s in SLI and am looking forward to getting 2 of the upcoming GTX 1080s for SLI as an upgrade. I just came across the Acer X34 Predator 34" ultra wide-screen monitor and thought that would make a good upgrade from my 24" 1080p screen. What worries me is...

I currently have the following rig: * I7-4770K @ 4.2 Ghz * Asus ROG Maximus Hero VI * 16 GB RAM DDR 3 * 2 x Gigabyte 780GTX Ghz Edition in SLI * Corsair AX-1200 watts PSU * Windows 10 64 Bit I intend to upgrade to the upcoming Pascal "1080 GTX" x2 SLI when it's released but wonder if...

Sorry for the double post at "Videocards" main forum but it seemed like there's a glitch where all my text are missing. I'm having a tough time deciding between the EVGA Superclocked with ACX Cooler and the Asus Direct-CU II OC GTX780s for SLI. The EVGA has a higher factory OC at 1020 Mhz...

I'm having a tough time deciding between the EVGA Superclocked with ACX Cooler and the Asus Direct-CU II OC GTX780s for SLI. The EVGA has a higher factory OC at 1020 Mhz while the Asus' is more conservative at 941 Mhz. The EVGA was my initial choice for the higher clock speed out-of-the-box but...

I'm contemplating getting 2 x GTX 780s for SLI until I saw the reference 290X selling at just a little more over the GTX 780's price. The problem is the reference 290X's heat and noise issue. Is it really that bad, I mean will it end up running at 100% fan speed while I'm gaming? Is the noise...

I have a PC with a HX1000 PSU powering an overclocked i7-960 @ 4Ghz with 2 GTX580s in SLI. I was actually eyeing the APC Back-UPS Pro 1500G but this has been discontinued and the the new 1500GI series is double its price! The only other option i have is the APC Back-UPS 1100 (BR1100CI-AS) at...

Hi guys, lately my PC switches off itself while playing games, sometimes it completely switches off and sometimes it reboots Windows and then it can't be switched on anymore. I got a technician to check and he managed to resolve it by resetting the CMOS battery, but couldn't pinpoint the source...

I can change base clock, multiplier etc on the BIOS' Cell menu but the "CPU voltage" and "DDR voltage" selection menu are on "Auto" and greyed out i.e cannot make changes. Is there any way around it? Its very strange that a motherboard made for OC have these 2 features locked. Would appreciate...
