    Upgrading GPU

    Believe it or not GTX580 Classified can handle BF4 very well. I am running everything on high with somewhat respectable frame rate. I am only tempted since I have about $800 to blow. The only thing that is preventing me from jumping on 780 ti is that, I have no idea how much the Maxwell chip...

    GTX 780 SLI question

    Ohhhh. What do think its better way? For him to get another gtx780 or sell his current 780 and pick up a new 780 ti? I already advise him against the Titan. But the memory is tempting. Does the memory make a difference ion 780 ti? I noticed that even at 3gb, its a faster ram.

    GTX 780 SLI question

    Hey guys Just a quick question regarding GTX 780. My buddy just got a GTX 780 about two months ago. He wants to know if he can get a GTX 780 ti and "SLI" it with the regular GTX 780. My response was that, you can but will under perform the 780 ti. Assuming that SLI will force the 780 ti...

    gtx460 vs gtx570 vs gtx 580

    I picked up a GTX580 Classified Ultra from my friend the other day:). He picked up a 7000 Radeon card. Wow the card is lot bigger then my 460. I am thinking about using one of the 460 as a dedicated Physx card and use the 580 as the main card. Is there actual benefit of using the 460 as a...

    gtx460 vs gtx570 vs gtx 580

    Sorry Need not that I am ignoring you... I am looking for 40+ frame rate that should keep it fluid in motion. I think 40 frame rate is okay, doesn't feel like the motions are lagging. At current setting I am only using one of my monitors since I know gtx460 SLI can not run the game in all 3...

    gtx460 vs gtx570 vs gtx 580

    Random question I notice that the AMD Radeon cards like 6970 only have 256-bit and the cost is at $350+ range. Where as gtx570 is at 320-bit but less ram unless you get the 2.5gb version which is at $400 range. I am not sure which one is a better deal. Honestly I dont want to spend too much...

    Asus VK278Q 27inch for gaming

    I got the monitor from Newegg yesterday and I am pleased. The screen size didnt make too much difference since I was going up from 25.5 inch to 27 inch. However additional options like picture in picture is nice, I was watching the military channel while BF3 was connecting and loading. As for...

    Asus VK278Q 27inch for gaming

    I would love to get a Samsung but they are lot more expensive. 2560x1440 on a single monitor? WOW that's insane!!!! Can your naked eye tell the difference? I thought your eyes can't really tell the difference after 1080p resolution. Just another question off the topic... If I was to get a...

    Asus VK278Q 27inch for gaming

    Hahaha Yes I know BF3 has some flaws here and there, but its still fun game to play. Anyhow I agree with Marduk77. Its def not a huge upgrade. I was merely pointing out that Webcam and the speakers means nothing too me. However I can tell a difference with LED backlight vs just using...

    PC Gaming Rig

    the opportunity cost is too great. Even if I get hit with the 15% re-stock fee (which probably can be waived by Neweggs), its much better bang for the bucks. All from Neweggs again. so here is my revision on Mobo, CPU and RAMs Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo Boost) 4 x...

    PC Gaming Rig

    At this point I was thinking about biting the bullet and getting the 980X. If that is the case then I am going to OC the hell out it and maxing out processor. Somewhere down the road upgrade the graphics cards. Its def over kill for gaming. Maybe I'll let the wife use it for video editing and...

    PC Gaming Rig

    Okay thanks for the feed back. Good thing I didn't buy the 980 and the Ram yet. Yea I realized that I am going to be stuck with i7(older gen tech) for the time being (say about 2 years, before I decide to pass down the PC). Whats a better recommendation for a RAM and the CPU then? I want to...
