I need some more floor space and looking for a full/mid tower case, any suggestions for a replacement? Need to fit a 360mm and a 240mm radiator plus a full size reservoir. I really like the look of the Phanteks Enthoo Evolv but I've heard the airflow isnt that great and I'm not sure it would fit...

Amazon EVGA 1080tis in stock: https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-FOUNDERS-Support-11G-P4-6390-KR/dp/B06XH2P8DD/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1490632099&sr=1-1&keywords=1080ti

Ok that makes sense, thanks for the info. edit: one more question once it disables itself at 90 would it go back to 144?

One thing I still don't get about freesync, I saw that the new Asus MG279Q is limited to 30-90hz, does that mean if the monitor is set to 144hz freesync wont function at all?

I wonder if this would have less motion blur than my x-star. I've gotten back into more FPS' lately and it feels like I'm playing with vasoline on the screen even at 96hz Are these the b stock of the new acer and asus 144hz panels? So tempted to buy this and see how it performs.

Im running 3 monitors on sig rig with no issues with either of those things in your original post. Although I am running Windows 8.1, I don't think its a hardware issue, have you reformatted or willing to try windows 8? Did you make sure you plugged in the 6 and 4 pin power plugs?

My 4770k seems very similar, I have mine at 1.287v right now 4.5ghz, anything above that and it seems to be unstable, running a full custom loop tops out around ~68c. I could probably get away with 4.7ish with more vcore but haven't tweaked it enough.

Ended up replacing all of my SP120s with NF-F12s, holy shit what a difference. These things are absolutely silent while still performing the same or better than the SP120s.

Is anyone else with crossfire having issues with HD flash videos? They have this weird hitching/stutter effect. All of my 3D games are fine, seems like its a 2d issue with downclocking too much or something

Yeah the color is fugly, but honestly at this point I don't even care, the clicking of these SP120s on top is driving me insane. Just wondering If I should return all of my SP120s and just go full noctuas. edit: Wouldnt the NF-F12's be better for a radiator?

Did you use an NZXT fan controller by chance? Found something else that the controller is causing it even though the noise is coming from the fan. Going to return it and try out the bitfenix or another controller instead.

Not sure what the issue is here, they are mounted on top of an alphacool 240mm ST30 rad, at 100% they are fine but as soon as I drop to ~80% or lower they start clicking. I had another set of these that I RMAd back to amazon because I thought they were bad, brand new set is doing the same...

I read on another forum (or maybe it was here) the vesa mount on the back was kind of wonky and didnt actually fit third party mounts. Looking at getting a triple monitor mount for my X-Star and two other 23 inchers....has anyone successfully installed a different mount and had it work properly?

Just got my new i7 4770k and new mobo today. Got everything installed and it's powering on for about 10 seconds then powering back off. The code on the led is C0 but all the manual says is "reserved" for that code. Any ideas what the issue is? I've taken the ram out completely which throws...

Try pulling the CMOS battery between swapping cards? I would pull it and wait a few minutes, then try and boot with the 560ti.
