    WTT: Asus R9 290x for 780/780ti

    As thread title states, I'm looking to trade and will deal with fair values. Card has never been overclocked nor has it ever been used for mining. I'm just not a fan of AMD drivers and their software compared to nVidia. Not opposed to selling it if a reasonable offer comes along too.

    CPU bottleneck

    I've noticed my r9 290x powers through some games and stalls pretty badly on others. Now I know there are some fan issues with them clocking themselves back. But I'm wondering if I have some bottlenecking in my CPU/mobo. Specifically the PCIe lanes.. I have the gigabyte sniper z77 (mATX)...

    Suggestion between these two

    So I'm considering a TV as a monitor *gasp* I know. I've read things have come a long way. I've been considering the 39 LG LN5300 or the 47" Sony W802a due to the impulse. Obviously they are very different in price.. 365 vs 1099.. My use will be for a couple months on my desktop in my...

    Lightroom 4.4 brush performance

    So when using brushes in LR 4.4 I've noticed they run like dick on my 36mp images from my D800. Now I don't see a reason why this should really differ from 12mp images due to the modifications being to the same amount of area (pixel wise) when at 100%. Even if it were more the modifications...

    A few suggestions - flickr/alternatives and tripod stuff

    So as many of you know I picked up the D800 last week and a Nikkor 85mm f1.8. I'm still not sure if I'm going to buy the 16-35 f4 or rent the 14-24 for my trip, we shall see. That said I think my tripod Sunpak PRO 243PX is pretty decent.. but the head is kinda shitty. Supposedly the...

    So.. Full frame then

    I'm on the cusp of bouncing over to full frame but I am at an em passe. What to get? I'm a Nikon guy and I like what I see in the two cameras I'm looking at. I've used a 6D and while I liked it, I think I'd prefer the D800/D600 for my own usage. That said, I'm leaning strongly toward the...

    New cans? or just get an amp?

    So I've had some decent cans for awhile (started my foray with HD280 Pros years ago) and now I'm currently using Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 80ohm cans (I've had them for about 3-4 years) and I do enjoy them a lot. Though they can be a bit bright at times but its rare, and I do feel the mids are a...

    S27A950D no longer made?

    So I realized I abhor AG coating so I didn't want to chance the coating on the Asus VG278HE (Currently on a ZR30w, and generally dislike AG and love glossy screens). I'd settled on the S27A950D but then I went to newegg/amazon and pretty much noticed it's not available? Newegg says its...

    120hz monitor help with eyestrain

    So I'm wanting subjective opinions if a 120hz monitor would help with shimmering.. Only way I can explain it is when your view in a game changes or scrolling on windows it seems like there's some ghosting/shimmering as things move across a screen. For some reason that bugs my eyes, it's not...

    Upgrade worth while?

    So I have a GTX470 1280mb (I think its 1.2gb essentially) from eVGA and I'm wondering how much of a boost I'd get if I went to a 6950/6970 in 2gb. The reason I ask is when I got the 470 I was running 1920x1200. But now I'm on 2560x1600 and I'm wondering how much difference the additional...
