I hear the frustration on shotguns, I have adapted to them. In answer to this: Special/Heavy/Primary Finder does NOTHING in PVP. Green / Purple bricks only drop from players with Green / Purple ammo. What you can do is change how much ammo you get from each brick with Scavenger perks. I run 3x...

Dumb question... free games with preordering from Nvidia directly? Did I miss something during my purchase process?

Sleeving Question: For those of you who have shortened / sleeved the SF600. Thoughts on average cable run length? Or a direction to a good readup on the topic.

It's not noticeable with headphones. I have open (Fidelio X2) and don't hear it. Noticeable with music off though. It's not annoying. Will be going full water loop soon to solve the noise problem.

Well, build complete. Z270i, 7700K (H75 single pull fan), 1080ti, SF450W, 16GB GSkill Trident Z. Running beautifully. Will upgrade to the Corsair 600W soon to give some more overhead. Coming from a 750ti bumped by CPU load temps up 4-5C. Temps at load: CPU: 70C GPU: 85C Pics...

Just received shipping confirmation. Selected "Next day AM" at checkout, it will be delivered tomorrow. Which is fantastic, didn't expect it until Saturday.

No word on ship date. Having not done preorder from them before, would I safely assume March 10 is the ship day?

Live and preordered. Can't wait for this.

Hmmm... preorder site not live yet?

I'll echo the comments on 144HZ 1440p being a necessity for many of us.

ASUS ROG Z270i installed with Trident Z RAM and H75. It's very tight but DOES fit. There is gentle contact but it doesn't push the RAM over.

SOLD ASUS Z77 Sabertooth in perfect condition. Never overclocked, ran stock since release. All parts in box still. Migrated to the Ncase and gave up full ATX. Price: $125 shipped (reasonable offers considered)

MSI and Phenom sold

ASUS Z77 Sabertooth in perfect condition. Never overclocked, ran stock since release. All parts in box still. Migrated to the Ncase and gave up full ATX. M700 Cooler Master Silent Pro PSU - ran in a HAF932 until I decided to go MITX. Runs perfectly. 700W model. 790FX-GD70 MSI board with Phenom...

Got the build together, LOVE it. However my, admittedly aging, 5850, decided to begin squealing like a stuck pig and I'm pretty sure it's gone now. So hurrah for integrated graphics keeping me at least running as a workstation.

#26 in Colorado, got mine yesterday. Next to my HAF922 this case is incredibly tiny. I didn't quite expect it to be THIS small. I am very happy, I just didn't exactly know how small it could get. Cannot wait for the parts to come in and to move my internals over. I can post pictures tonight, at...

Thank you! This community rocks. Dispatch 26 for me then. Come on Colorado delivery!

I have no idea what shipment I am on. I may have missed that somewhere.

Mine is now showing as archived. In Colorado so I assume I will be one of the last. As said above, not impatient, just excited. It's still earlier than I had originally planned on. Won't be building the system until Jan/Feb at least.

For any kind of productivity I think three screens is king. For gaming... I like the Eyefinity effect and the bezels really don't matter, but I have gone back to mainly gaming on one screen since I play DoTA2 most of the time. I couldn't go back. Having skype/spotify/IM on the side screens while...

I have the Sensei as I was looking for a replacement for the IM. My only complaint with the Sensei initially was the weight. I previously had the SS Ikari and loved it but I wanted to go back to that classic shape. I would suggest the Sensei RAW over the regular as I would want to shed those...

Have you received the Mad Dogs yet? Your goals sound extremely similar to mine and I wonder how they fit in.

Fabulous! i will try that. I run borderless windowed in extended, don't know why I didn't think of that for eyefinity.

Thank you! I really appreciate that response from a realworld user. I have profiles, unfortunately they reset and don't actually work for me. I have 3 profiles, all of which put me in extended desktop mode instead of Eyefinity. Regardless of how I set them up and saved them. Apparently the...

Looking for an answer from NVSurround or Eyefinity users. I'd like to not have to switch in and out of presets. I have a 5850 and eyefinity right now. for RTS I have to switch profiles constantly. Does NVSurround allow me to game with Lol/dota/CoH/SC2 on the center monitor changing profile or...

My question relates a little more to the subjective experience of Nvida VS AMD. For desktop and single monitor gaming (IE Starcraft2, Dota2, etc) was it easier to do this on Nvidia or AMD? I currently have a 5850 and the process of switching back and forth is incredibly time consuming. Is the...

With the MC404 and mechanical keyboards, how bad is the clicking? I have the KBT pure and I worry about my keyclicks pissing off skype-mates.

Thank you very much.

Question: I run a seperate mic from my headphones and am looking to redo my entire setup. My goals are to have a volume knob controlling my mic on my desktop. Ideally it would be small and have a mute button for instant muting. Any ideas? I'm not sure what type of gear would do this, a studio...

Liquidevil, your setup is so clean. Is there any way to force Windows7 to appear at all similar to that? I don't know if anyone else could answer this either.

Video driver may be it I guess... I am running 12.4 currently. EDIT: Apparently I downloaded 11.5? I am updating to 12.4 now. Hopefully this resolves the issue. RESOLVED: a) PCI Simple Communications Device on Sabertooth Z77 drivers were missing. Drivers were Intel Management Engine. b)...

I can turn off EIST, but I like that my CPU underclocks when not using it for gaming. I can

Intel Management Engine took care of that last PCI problem. But it's still tweaking out during a gaming session. EDIT: I can turn off EIST but would rather leave it on. Or is there another way to let the CPU turbo/underclock itself while turning EIST off?

Video done by a 5850.

I just setup my system, Sabertooth Z77 + 3570k. While gaming, SC2/DOTA2/CSS, the CPU usage will suddenly drop from about 80% to 40% then come back but it stutters the game pretty heavily. Everything is set stock. I have stock cooling and am waiting to OC until I get a better cooling solution...

Any words on pricing? I live near microcenter.

I have been working to make the same decision, coming from a X3 Phenom II. I'm thinking I may just go 2500k + Z68 Gen 3 and a 680 gtx. Although that 7970 is looking good. I'm currently running eyefinity on a 5850 and the [H] reviews have tilted me towards the 7970/680. I am on a semi budget so...

Phenom II X3... upgrade to SB or IB? That's my debate now. I like Z77 but not sure on CPU to pair with it.
