I didn't want to, but I had to... for Battlefield. http://www.hardocp.com/article/2013/11/24/battlefield_4_windows_7_vs_81_performance_review/

It's the Allsop Comfortbead Wrist Rest for the mouse. It's like a beanbag for your wrist, and I use it all the time for gaming... so much so that I go through one every couple of years from wear and tear...

Oh definitely. I'm eyeing 4K gaming next, but want the technology to mature just a tad. Will definitely need to go Tri-SLI w/ at least 4GB VRam at those resolutions.

9 Aquacompeter rads?! Dude, you have to log this. With that much surface area, I'm very curios to see what your temps are with fans at a dead stop.

UPDATE I downloaded and installed the H.264 codec (video) and the LAME codec (audio), and was able to reduce the file size down to 200MB per minute without reducing noticeable quality. This essentially means that my 256GB SSD can store roughly about 21 hours worth of video. This is...

UPDATE: Just experimented with Dxtory and it works well without any dedicated hardware. With Dxtory, I experience no framerate drops in-game, which is awesome. Recording with Dxtory codec @ 1080p + 30fps yields about 7GB per minute of game play. With a 1TB HD, that gives me about 2...

Thanks for the input everyone. I just experimented with trying to do video capture without the use of a dedicated card, and the results are horrendous. I used XSplit, played my game at 1600p resolution, and locally broadcasted at 1080p. The game was unplayable while the game was...

Is there a video capture card that will allow me to game at 1600p while recording it at 1080p? I want to run it as multiple monitor setup in clone configuration. The card basically needs to ingest a 1600p feed, then scale it to 1080p, then encode to video file in real time. I looked...

Been running Danger Den Dreamflex 1/2"ID x 3/4"OD blue uv tubing with EK Coolant Blue UV since Nov 2011 without flush. I upgraded my GPUs last month so I drained my loop, installed and connected the GPUs, and filled it back up. Upon starting the pump, I almost immediately noticed little...

No worries! The ACX will be a great upgrade for your already amazing rig.

I have two Asus GTX 590s for sale. Bid starts at $9.99. Perfect condition. GTX 590 - 1: http://www.ebay.com/itm/151064540542?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 GTX 590 - 2: http://www.ebay.com/itm/151064540871?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

UPDATE - Oh crap, just read the rules... no cross linking to eBay - how do you delete a post? This is an invalid and misleading post. Please disregard. My apologies.

I honestly don't think the difference in performance is noticeable since they are clocked pretty close. The only reason why you'd buy the hydro coppers over the ACX is if you want to run it in a water cooled rig with low-sound signature and possibly higher OC capabilities ( although I wasn't...

Oh sorry. Here are my temps. Each can run 10-12 cooler if I max out my fans. But I'm really adamant about running my rig *dead silent*. Basically I turn fans down to standstill, and then I crank them back up to just when they start spinning, and then leave it at that RPM. Serial loop...

I was able to bench Firestorm 1150/6068 - 13601. Using Precision X, I was able to max my overvoltage and power without any issues. I was also able to bench 3DMark FireStrike at core 50+ offset and mem 50+ offset all day long (hydro coppers have different offset values). HOWEVER, it was...

At face value, they are using a massive index for which their algorithm can search 1 point per pixel at run time, in real time, straight from data on disk with some RAM caching mechanics. As the way I naively understand indices, you build them once, and unless the data changes, you don't need...

That's a Mountain Mods case, and it's highly customizable (they will cut the pieces you need if they don't have it listed). http://www.mountainmods.com It'll be the only case you'll ever need.

Principles man.. principles.

Just got these bad boys (EVGA GTX 780 Hydro Copper SLI) on Monday... thought I'd share it with everyone: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?...post1039936847

I did not =(. I just checked... I *assumed* it did since the actual copy stated, "Dominate Metro: Last Light with EVGA GeForce GTX, get the game free." Misleading much?

Agreed... these guys went the d-bag route, but they have a point. Unless you have horrible vision, you should be playing at 2560x1600 with the Titan or GTX 780 SLIs locked at 60hz. Otherwise what's the point? I mean, the reason we buy expensive graphics card is for the *best* graphics...

Well, just ordered a pair of these bad boys to replace the 590's... you guys were awesome, but it's time to find a new home.

Upgraded my audio from the Xonar Xense. I love the Xense, but it's time for me to move on to the Beyerdynamics DT 880 Pros 250 ohm with the Magni / Modi Schiit stack

Happy St. Patty's Day! A shot for every bug.

Worklog here: http://www.hardocp.com/news/2011/11/15/h_reader_upgrade_day/

This build is utterly amazing. Stealth carbon fiber? Are you kidding?! Sick.

Yeah so far I'm super happy with the performance especially with NVidia's latest drivers for the 590s. I'd say the Xonar Sense w/ the Sennheiser PC350s and the RevoDrive 3 are my favorite components... oh and the case. I think the next game I'll throw at it is Crysis 3.

Oh sweet... I did a Google search for my build I did back in November, and then I found out that this build was posted as "Reader of the Day"! That means a lot from a community of strong tech enthusiasts such as HardOCP. http://www.hardocp.com/news/2011/11/15/h_reader_upgrade_day/ Thanks Steve!

The Xonar Xense software and hardware was designed for the PC350. And conversely, Sennheiser specificcally made this PC350 for the Xonar Xense. So it will sound awesome.

Thanks ruin97140, I hope you enjoy the Xonar Xense as much as I did. Maybe it's because I never really had great headphones with a great amp before (as in $500 headphones with $800 amp or something equally ridiculous), but the Xonar Xense is really the "complete package" for a great listening...

How do you measure or adjust the DPC latency gain? And how does it impact audio quality? My PC 350s plug straight to the back of the card. You're correct about GX-mode, it makes zero changes to sound quality when listening to music - only in games because it's an EAX 5x emulator. The good...

Just thought I'd throw this out there about the Xonar Xense. I just finished my build about 3 weeks ago, and the Xonar Xense is the component that I'm the most happy with - http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1646299. Unlike my other components, the card worked well beyond my...

If money and PCIe space is not a problem, go with 2 x 580 GTX 3GB.

Nice! Love the black wrinkle powder coat - and it's cheaper than the blander black brushed aluminum.

So quick update after breaking in this rig for a couple of weeks: 2600k Overclocking I followed Juan's guide ( http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1578110 ), who's the ASUS technical specialist, on overclocking the 2600k and was able to clock it at 4.9Ghz 24/7 stable with these settings...
