    480SLI to R9290 for 5760x1200 modded Skyrim results...

    So, over the past couple of weeks you guys have given me some great advice- I was looking to move from my 480 SLI setup to a single GPU solution (at least for the time being, anyways). The main game I have been logging hours in has been a heavily modded Skyrim. At 5760x1200, my 1,532mb was GONE...

    Replacing SLI 480s

    Hi guys- I am getting back into the PC gaming mix after a hiatus, and am seriously considering replacing my beloved EVGA SLI 480s.

    GTX480 SLI - single slot replacement opinions

    Hey guys- I have been MIA for a spell, but due to my PSU knocking out my mobo last week, I was forced to do some very un-planned tech replacement. Long story short : I ended up with an MSI Z77A-GD65 mobo, partnered with an i5 3570. After everything was in place, I discovered my beloved...

    Matrix 5870 Xfire...Dissapointed/Rant

    Well- I have finally resolved all my BSOD issues, as it turned out it was related to one of the SATA ports on my mobo. Now that my system is FINALLY stable, I thought I would get to some OC'ing on my pair of ROG 5870 Platinums. Much to my dismay- and I understand, "mileage may vary" with...

    (mabye) dumb question about Crossfire and GPU load

    So, mabye this is "noob", but as I am still trying to catch up to all the new tech out after a layoff, I am hoping I have a pass...:p So I have noticed while benching my newly aquired pair of ROG 5870s, that the bottom (crossfired) card is at "extreme" load (the logos change color to indicate...

    5870 2GB Crossfire

    5970 crossfire with???...

    OK, so I got my first 5970. The second one is of course taking a while to come in, so in the meantime, it's got me thinking... A second 5970, or mabye a 5870x2. Both are "quad-fire" setups, I suppose? Now I am doing Eyefinity on 3xDell 2209wa, so this was why I set out to have the monstrous...

    OK guys. I THOUGHT I had made a decision on my 3 panels for my new Eyefinity system build. I ordered 3 of the p2310h 24" displays from Dell last week. I figured I could return them if the TN angles were too bad. (and the price was right, 3 for 680). Well, I recieved an email from Dell syaing...

    Any advantage with native DP display VS. Dual Link adaptor for Eyefinity?...

    I have been on the fence for trying to pick my 3 displays for my new Eyefinity system build. I was initially ONLY looking at native Displayport displays, which led me to the Dell P2310h, for bang for the buck. (trying to stay under 800.00 for all 3). But I've seen some of you guys running...
