    BF3 problem after installing GTX680 (into older computer .. comments on that too))

    So last night a friend found a lone EVGA GTX 680 at Microcenter on the shelf for me.. I've been looking for one in anticipation to building my new computer after Ivy Bridge stuff comes out. I popped the thing in my current box (e8400 dual core 3.16ghz, 4gb PC2-8500) replacing my GTX 260, just...

    Monitors make me sad... Gaming on 120hz or IPS panel?

    So I normally don't pay too much attention to new computer hardware until I'm ready to buy. This has been the case with monitors.. For the past 5 or 6 years I've been absolutely loving my NEC 20WMGX2... it is still probably the among the best displays I have ever seen. I've put many many...

    Dual Monitors working, but a problem. 7950gx2 + ATI 9250

    Hello! I recently picked up an ATI 9250 to run dual monitors on my 7950gx2 (Allowing the GX2 to be in SLI mode with the other monitor active). I had read, after I'd ordered the 9250, that this was impossible and did not see any success stories. Im happy to report that it works on my system...

    Refresh Rates and NEC 20WMGX2

    I have a quick question. I've read some stuff about LCD users upping their refresh rates past the standard 60hz. Could doing this damage the monitor? I have the 20WMGX2 NEC and I would love to fiddle with it a bit so my games are not capped at 60fps. Unlike with my CRT, Vsync is...
