Just don't get anything Chinese made ripoff. I own a Chuwi Hi12 which was at one time, their most popular product. When shit hits the fan, and you can bet any Chinese ripoff will eventually crap on you, you will not know what to do. Can't go into bios settings? Check. Can't reinstall by...

I wouldn't entirely count it as Blackberry flunking, although Google might not have thought that Android will turn out as successful as it envisioned it to be. Prior to 2010, when IOS is not that entrenched, plenty of OSes have a shoot at making it if they have played their cards right. We all...

Pretty much this. At this point only a delusional person will believe a new OS will break the duopoly. At best, a new OS will only gain a few percentage point, pretty much like Mac and all variants of Linux. Android and IOS are simply too entrenched. The only reason why Android was allowed to...

Is your monitor GSync capable? SLI does not support GSync. 30-35 FPS on SLI is unplayable. To answer OP's qn. I cannot even max out graphic details on 1600p with a 1080Ti on certain games hoping for a 60FPS (e.g. Assassin creed syndicate, WatchDog 2 with certain geometry detail percentage), let...

According to this review, http://www.babeltechreviews.com/fury-x-vs-gtx-980-ti-revisited-36-games-including-watch-dogs-2/3/ Generally, 1070>980ti>FuryX. The gap between FX and 980ti is bigger than between 1070 and 980ti. I will put a FX as comfortably above a 980 but still lags a 980ti.

8bit panel. With only 300Nits, seems like it does not support HDR as well.

Pushing or another 150Mhz is going to be hardly noticeable in games.

I went from a 1080 FE to a 1080Ti Aorus Xtreme. Running on a 1600p screen and I find the upgrade... underwhelming. I do not see the 35% increment Nvidia taunts about improvement from 1080 to ti (FE to FE I supposed). It's more like 30% on average across the board in my case, which mean, certain...

I have an Aorus Xtreme 1080Ti too. No problem encountered so far. Running off a 1050w Seasonic PSU that used to run 2 Titan Keplar in SLI Also, I don't think I need to set to OC mode, even on Gaming mode, the clock will go to 2kMhz on Boost 3.0

How did you guys managed a 5khz 4790k? About 2 years ago, I upgraded from a 2600k to a 4790k and find overclocking ability on the haswell--- abysmal. I live in a tropical city so it is pretty much summer all year round, and with a seidon 240, I managed 4.2Ghz stable with Intel burn test max at...

I am also using 2560x1600 30". But I will be waiting until a >=40" 4k Gsync capable monitor is out. I also prefer it to be a Dell premium panel. They are pricey but the next business day warranty for 5 years is well worth it. When my 3 years old u3014 broke down, I got my replacement from Dell...

Ah I see what is meant by "Reverse connector" To answer OP's question, no, don't think you can use the connector from motherboard, as most likely the power and SAS connector to drive will be joined together. Don't think its possible to plug in both power and SAS separately like in a PC tower case.

Are both the power and SAS connectors to the drive joined as a single piece of connector in that case? Also, I did not see any "Reverse, motherboard SATA ports to SAS Backplane" connector from your picture.

Hey looking at your picture, it seems there are 4 input non standard SAS connector. Just connect them to the LSI controller and all will be fine, be it SATA or SAS.

I don't know anything about the Norco 4220. Does it comes with an internal expander? Also, most of the cables out from the LSI SAS controllers have different connectors from SAS/SATA cable, It is usually a bundle of 4 SAS cables into 1. You have to see if Norco 4220 have an input connector...

Your case comes with a SAS controller??? May I know which model is that case. The SATA cable has to connect from the SAS controller to the drive and not the motherboard, no?

I used to own a pair of original Titans before switching to GTX1080 and I game at 1600p. Get SLI only when you absolutely need it(e.g. 4k). Support is getting worse and I will give you some examples. Batman Arkham Knight dropped SLI despite all previous games in the series supports SLI. Fallout...

There is one major reason why 1080 is selling much better now. In the past, when midrange GPU came out, the performance increase is not there. Titian/780ti to GTX980 is a sidegrade. But here 1080 is 20-30% faster than 980ti which is why so many people are buying this card. In the past you will...

Looking at the benchmark, it seems that AMD's latest and greatest is only on par with a Keplar GTX Titan that was released > 3 years ago. 3 years is a lifetime in GPU timeline.

Nvidia has a history of not bringing their previous gen cards to full potential in driver. For example, Fallout 4 has been released and Kepler SLI users can enjoy full Ultra FPS framerate simply by setting SLI to AFR2. Yet, the SLI profile that comes with the driver is broken. Why? Simply...

When I had my 2 Titans in SLI some 2 and half years ago, it seemed to be an overkill and I was able to max out every damn games at 1600p with a solid 60FPS. I remember gamers were laughing at Titans users because they were expensive and 6GB was thought to be unnecessary. Currently I am no longer...

I have 2xGTX Titan (similar to 700 series card) and AFR2 works wonder for me. Seems like this settings does not play well with the 900 series card. How does the stock SLI profile that comes with the latest driver do for you?

The problem with this thing for note taking is that it does not feature palm rest ignore like surface pro. And if they are going to market this as a productivity device, Samsung better price it lower than the windows tablets, because I still don't see this on par with windows for productivity...

2-way or 3 way SLI? if it is 2 way, your games will run choppy unless it is not a graphically taxing game. Is 3GB ram even enough? Not sure about 3 way SLI.

Usually I only upgrade when there exist a single card that rivals or outperform my cards in SLI. This looks like a massive side step IMO.

http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/radeon_r9_290x_crossfire_vs_sli_review_benchmarks,1.html Looking at the benchmark, it seems that overall, it has a slight advantage over gtx780 SLI. However, whatever advantage it has in 4k resolution as a single card as shown in HOCP article is not...

I understand what you mean. I have >200 hours into BF2, >200 hours into bf3 with rank Colonel 3. I stopped playing BF3 serveral months back and still finds myself rather bored with the BF4 MP. The SP campaign is really good but extremely short with little replay value. But I have got to say...

Many enthusiasts will crossfire/SLI their setup, esp for high end cards. Still waiting for the crossfire review and benchmark for this card on HOCP.

Generally the graphic and artist design looks really good. There is just 1 problem though, and that is certain uneven textures between various scenes. For example, your team mates have better texture and polygon counts compared to NPCs and certain walls have poorer texture resolution than other...

You mentioned that alot of AAA games do not support SLI, I beg to differ, my experience told me most AAA games supports SLI, only a couple of AAA games out of many titles dont. The more popular the game, the higher the chances it will have SLI support. Even if the game does not support SLI when...

There are many games out there that supports SLI, just that you need to wait 1 or 2 days for Nvidia to put in the SLI profile. The games you mentioned: Company of hero 2: I wouldn't bother with most Russian developers except for Metro2033. All of their games are poorly optimised even for single...

Remake of UT2004 with the latest unreal engine 4 with UI, movement, maps etc everything same, only difference is to update the graphic to be on par with the latest games.

those with unplayable FPS, you have to install the latest beta driver from Nvidia. This made a huge difference to me. Those reporting FPS please also states your OS. This game is more optimized for win 8 than 7.

Everything max except MSAA=off and motion blur 0%. You can see my spec from my sig. The framerate varies too much and too frequently, resulting in stuttery gameply. FPS varies from 40+ to 100+. Game was installed on a separate SSD away from my other SSD that holds my OS.

The latest Dell monitors do not have grainy coating. The coating is so clear that if you place your eyes 1-2 inches from the screen, you will be able to see all pixels with screendoor effect. This coating is infact better than most TN panels. I would agree with the black level, esp Dell has some...

Is TP's main concern gaming? Is accurate colors that important for games? Games texture have inaccurate colors to begin with. Some may argue this, but there are people like me who find gaming in a slightly saturated colors more satisfying. If gaming is your beef, then go for 30 inch instead of...

I made a thread yesterday about the same question but has no idea why it was removed http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?p=1039937711#post1039937711 Is it because [H] forum has to get into Intel's good shoes? basically, some review mentioned the temp on 4770k on stock speed and fan runs 37-39C...

Anyone knows how to get those retention bracket alone?

my u3014 does not have the scanline issue. This made me think either DELL has a QC problem with their assembly line or LG has consistency issue with their panels.
