    Now do A Different World. Show should have never been removed. Especially since it's not completely available anywhere else, paid or otherwise.

    GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1060 G1 GAMING 6G Review @ [H]

    Snagged one from Micro Center for $210 (incl. tax). Better 1080p experience than the GTX 1080. (Strange I know; returning my 1080 come Monday)

    Far Cry 4 Video Card Performance and IQ Preview @ [H]

    I have two 7970s in CF and encountered the same pitch black shadows in FC4. I thought it was a new feature and hated it. Upping the brightness helped a little but ruined a lot more.

    Hospital Posts Patient’s STD Diagnosis To Facebook

    I'd sue for everything the hospital has... the most vital medical industry rule, waterboarded with gasoline and lit on fire by a university hospital nonetheless.

    GTX 680 4gb vs. Radeon 7970 3gb

    Go with the 7970. I'm a bit biased considering I went with one but I was on the same boat when initially looking to upgrade from my 560 Ti. The 680, although a beast, is lacking in raw performance. The 7970 is MUCH more powerful than the 680 but lacks in the Department of Drivers. :D AMD is...

    What SSD do you have in your gaming rig?

    OCZ Vector 256GB on my desktop. Holds my OS and games. I used a Samsung 840 (non-pro) 500GB on my MBP. They both work really well. My Vector fried a few weeks ago and so I RMA'd it. OCZ sent me a brand new one. Which is great because I lost my Acronis key so I couldn't redeem the free FC3...

    7990 first shots fired.

    Until they release a new driver that gets rid of microstutter, use RadeonPro in the meantime. I am using it for Far Cry 3, Bioshock Infinite and Crysis 3 (all games I got for free thanks to AMD's bundles :cool:) and it works wonders. Here's my FC3 profile (w/no visible microstutter)...

    Help with poor performance on PNY GTX 670 (GTA 4, Crysis)

    GL getting GTA IV to work well. I'm sure the Titan, or even a quad-SLI Titan setup would have trouble with that game. It's just that badly optimized. It's extremely CPU dependent and becomes a bottleneck to itself, especially with long FOVs. I can't get solid 60+ FPS on low settings. It's that...

    Titan overclocks like garbage (throttle issue)

    100MHz can make difference. Depends on what FPS ranges you were getting prior to the OC. 100MHz = ~10FPS, at least on my 7970. So if I'm playing a game for the eyecandy and can't seem to max it out, a +200MHz OC might do wonders in terms of playability.

    Memory Clock OC

    Anyone encounter a benchmark that compares the performance of the same card with different memory clocks? I'm OCing my 7970 and I've got it at 1200MHz core with the default memory clock (1425 on my Sapphire card). Any OCing of the memory clock causes serious instability. I'm wondering if I'm...

    Horse trading - GTX-580 or GTX-660?

    I'd go with the 660 Ti if you can find them at similar prices. 660 Ti uses less power, runs cooler, has more VRAM (and a larger memory bus) and is among the top of Nvidia's priority in terms of drivers--and will be longer than the 5xx cards.

    Tomb Raider Video Card Performance and IQ Review @ [H]

    AMD should be focusing on drivers more than anything else. TressFX? Not only is it a very minor improvement to the game but it also causes a 20-40% drop in FPS. Absolutely useless.

    Memory Clock on 7970

    Does memory clock make a difference? I'm overclocking my 7970, and I see really no noticeable difference in increasing the memory clock, well besides more instability. I'd like to get to 1250MHz but from what I've learned reading sites and forums about overclocking core clock speed and memory...

    Is a 7970 or 670 worth it considering my CPU

    I've been debating whether the better driver support and features of the 670 would outweigh the sheer potency of the 7970. I bought a 7970 and was thinking about returning it, especially after finding out it was voltage locked and the beta drivers were horrendously unstable. BUT, I figured out...

    1600 not supported unless OC

    What does that mean? I've seen some MSI motherboard that don't support 1600MHz memory modules right out of the box and require overclocking. What exactly do I overclock in order for the BIOS to recognize 1600MHz RAM?

    6950 vs 560 Ti

    The Ti is short for Titanium. Like you said, it's just a tag implying a difference between it and similarly named products.

    6950 vs 560 Ti

    From what I've noticed in the design of the TFII, the three heatsink pipes work wonders. Most GPUs have one giant heatsink over the GPU die but it's rare to see three pipes (not heatsink radiators like on a Galaxy card) until MSI released these. That with the two fans and openings on all edges...

    p67 vs z68

    Is the z68 really worth it? I don't think I'll be using an SSD anytime soon so I don't won't benefit from the SSD Caching. I don't convert videos much and am okay with waiting a little longer if I ever do, so the Quick Sync feature seems useless. From what I've read about the transcoding, and...

    6950 vs 560 Ti

    I searched the forums and found nothing. Which card would you guys recommend? I can't get grounded on either one since the 560 Ti is powerful and cheap but the 6950 has 2GB of VRAM and comparable performance. Note that I will be using the Twin Frozr II HSF on either card, because from what...
