    Missing components gigabyte rx 460

    You might want to check for a schematic at badcaps.net and ask in /GPURepair on Reddit. More than likely someone there will have an idea of what you need.

    Anybody going from NVIDIA to the 5700/XT, do you experience more input lag on the desktop?

    I've switched between both AMD and NVIDIA pretty frequently and have never noticed any extra lag on the desktop at all. What motherboard are you running?

    Telltale Games are Disappearing from Steam

    Unfortunate, but Telltale has been circling the drain for a while. Still a little sad to see the company that brought Sam & Max back go under.

    What do you prefer for 4K PC and Console Gaming on your desk? 32" or 40-43"?

    40" Wasabi Mango UHD400 wall mounted, I find it to be an excellent size for desktop use.

    Best 40+ Inch 4K Monitor for Gaming?

    I use a Wasabi Mango UHD400, really nice after calibration and has held up well. The big bonus for me was FreeSync capability.

    Bykski Threadripper Block Breakdown and Install

    As much as I like the the look of the design, I worry about that acrylic window in the long term. I've had a couple of bad experiences with acrylic.

    LG 43UD79 Information?

    I use a Wasabi Mango UHD400 myself, FreeSync makes a huge difference even at 60hz just to throw my input out there from experience. I didn't know if I was going to be happy with the lower performance with my new Vega 64 compared to my 1080 ti, but the experience is much smoother with the Vega...

    I stripped it down to just simple temp data and it was still an issue. Odd stuff.

    The Top 5 Best CPUs of All Time

    I without a doubt got the most longevity out of a 2600k under liquid, that processor kept me out of the upgrade cycle for years. Great hardware deserves respect, well done article!

    RX Vega Owners Thread

    Just tried some Prey and no issues, but only played 20 minutes or so. I have noticed that has there's a severe incompatibility with either HWINFO or Afterburner combined with Rivatuner. Really bad hitching at regular intervals with OSD on the latest drivers and usually only after a full reboot...

    RX Vega Owners Thread

    I'd say it's really good with one big caveat. Your 4k monitor should have Freesync. If it doesn't, you're really better off with a 1080 ti, it's that simple. It will keep you near enough at 60hz Vsync most of the time at 4k. With Vega Liquid even with a little overclock on the HBM and full power...

    RX Vega Owners Thread

    Checking in. I wasn't planning on buying one of these, but snagged a liquid cooled version. I've had a Freesync monitor for the better part of a couple years that I used to pair with 2 Fury Nanos and I really wanted to see what single GPU would be like. Crossfire sucks. So does SLI. Let's get it...

    RX Vega Reportedly Offers “Insane Levels” of Mining Performance

    Wow, a lot people angry with the mining craze. Here's a thought: instead of buying Vega or a 1070 or 1060, buy some AMD stock? What with the split, things just might get interesting.

    AMD Will Not Be Livestreaming the RX Vega Reveal

    Pretty much. After they released a mining specific card? Oh boy, you know which side their bread is buttered on.

    G-Sync doesn't come in 40" flavors and I like it for coding and whatever other productivity requirements are on me.

    AMD Will Not Be Livestreaming the RX Vega Reveal

    I really hope AMD can pull something off, but these are some bad signs. Blind tests using freesync and gsync? No streamed unveiling? Ruh-roh. As an owner of a freesync 4k monitor, I was really hoping to be able to switch back to AMD for a single GPU solution, but the 1080 Ti I'm using now will...

    Intel Skylake Core i7-6700K IPC & Overclocking Review @ [H]

    ??? I'm surprised that you find your 3770k lacking. Are you overclocking it? I'm not seeing much reason to upgrade as far as CPU performance goes. The new mobo features are nice and all, but not so compelling to me that I feel the need to switch out.

    SnapRAID storage pool question.

    And if you do want pooling in addition to Snapraid, I'd recommend Drive Pool if you don't already have something else. http://stablebit.com/drivepool

    Water is great if silence or nearly so is your goal, if that's not a concern then air is fine.

    Best Streaming Device for HT

    I'm using a NUC with dual band wifi and it works very well. Not exactly inexpensive though at around $350. I've read good things about the various Chromebox models on the Kodi/OpenELEC forums.

    980 Ti Gigabyte G1 Newegg Preorder.

    That's absolutely right, every card I've ever used (T-X, 980, 970, 290x, 6970, 680, etc.) has coil whine to varying degrees when hitting 500-1000 fps on a title screen, it's always been that way. If anyone is returning a card simply because of coil whine on an intro screen they're going to be...

    Advice on 660Ti SLI Upgrade

    A single 970 is a perfectly fine option for 1080p, you're right not to grab a 980 Ti based on a potential 4k upgrade down the road. A 970 won't be able to max out everything such as Ultra textures or high AA in the most demanding games, but it will be excellent in the majority of cases. The...

    980 Ti Gigabyte G1 Newegg Preorder.

    Well, it's loud at 100% like a Delta, but around 70% it's definitely a "whoosh" and not too loud at all.

    No room for Fury X Radiator? [Help!]

    I think you're right about that (not near my main PC now) but I was going off these specs which only list 140mm rear: http://www.coolermaster.com/case/full-tower/haf-932/ OP's rad looks kind of like it's 140mm to me, but I could be wrong. I'm using custom w/c in mine so not too well versed in...

    EK does have a page for 300/Fury X, but so far it's only populated by 290x, 285 blocks that fit the 300 series due to the rebadge. http://shop.ekwb.com/water-blocks/vga-blocks/full-cover-for-amd-radeon/radeon-rx-300-series

    The deal breaker on that Corsair is having only two 3.5" bays unless you don't have more than two storage HDDs.

    Personally I'd avoid the bottom intake as heat dissipation wouldn't be optimal I would think, but it never hurts to test.

    AMD Fury X In Stock thread

    Doubt it, I'll bet demand for a block will be low considering Fury X comes with CLC. If EK is coming with a block I'd expect you'll see them around late July, August.
