    Any idea what I could do to get 120hz or 144hz working? The only options I show are 60/85/100 Also, my turbo button does nothing, no matter what. Only way to change display rates is by using windows control panel. I am using a AMD Radeon 6990 Not sure if it matters, but I also run 2x Cinema...

    I dont even have any options above 100hz. Blah.. not sure if I want to buy a nvidia card. Whatever I get would basically only be a small step up from a 6990 and it would cost 3-400$ >:/

    Question: I got the rog swift in today. I have a ati radeon 6990. Have it setup, but a few issues 1: The only refresh rates I can set are 60, 85 and 100. Thats all windows shows as a option and pressing the monitors button to change has no effect. It was my understanding even the ATI cards...

    I am back ordered on new egg and 'purchased' from TD. I purchased it on the 25th when they had it shown as 'in stock' for about 30 minutes. I plan on just cancelling one once one of them goes through. Also waiting on amazon as well, but no ETA on when they might start selling

    When did you place your order? Were you asking about when they get the /next/ batch (its currently saying for preorder on their site) or when they will receive the current batch, that you were able to buy with a "in stock" showing?

    For me, its moreso because I use my desktop on 1440p. When I game, I wont run at 1440p- maybe 1920x1200. But when I am out of the game, I dont want to be stuck with shitty 1080p resolution of the other 120hz monitors available. Also- You dont *have* to game in 1080p. I just wanted a...

    I have no intention of running 3d surround- I just want my main (center) monitor to run gsync at 144hz. I use my side monitors to monitor stocks and the news- Never for playing games. Should that be OK? Also, what happens if you fuck up and drag a window from your center screen to a...

    anyone know if it would be possible to have a 780 running this monitor and a 6990 running 2 side monitors? Think the software/gsync could handle it without freaking out?

    Im going to try it out just using a single 6990 and see how it performs. If its shit, Il buy another 6990. They are only going for 225 new now, so should be a cheap upgrade.

    So, if I want to do this with BF4 + SC2, what should I do? I can buy another 6990 (have one 6990 just for center monitor and the other for the 2 side monitors) or I can sell my current 6990 and buy ....?

    When you say 144hz will still work- Would a 6990 be able to push what I need? ( 1 monitor @ 1440p/144hz + 2 monitors @ 1440p/60hz ) I wonder if its not worth buying a nvidia card if I dont plan on ever playing in full screen mode. I suppose i could also just buy a second 6990 just for the...
