    I bought the GD235hz monitor to accompany my Eyefinity setup. The monitor displays wonderfully in 60hz (shame that isn't what I bought it for). When I go into CCC and attempt to force the monitor to display at 120 at 1920x1080; if I press apply, the screen goes black and I get the "input not...

    Because I am planning to build an external water setup similar to those of Naja02, i'm curious to find if a more powerful pump could damage water blocks?
