I've been using my XFX HD 7970 DD since Dec 2012 with a 40" 1080p HDTV until few months ago I replaced that TV with 3x 27" @ 5840x1080. And since then I've been annoyed with several things. Crossfire/SLI is annoying Lack of solid support for mufti screen gaming from many games. Low FPS with...

I have an ASUS Sabertooth Z77 that failed nearly a month ago and ever since it have been pure hell. I called them the first day it failed on me and asked for RMA and ever since ASUS customer support been extremely difficult to work with. Rude attitude by one of their rep. Screwed up system...

Just received my new XFX HD 7970 DD Black Edition and I immediately put it to test running my favorite games... I'm left dumbfounded and disappointed. Seems my clock speed stays at idle speed even when I'm playing graphic insensitive games. I checked my clock speed and it remains at 500/150...

I run my games at 1080p on a 40" screen. I see a lot jagged edge so I would like to use as much AA as possible without dropping below 60 FPS. Most reviews out there focus heavily on multi monitor or much higher resolution than 1080p... There isn't much love for my gaming style. :( Im about to...

So I accidentally destroyed my USB port on the top of my PC-A05NB when I tripped over my phone charger cable... Now I'm looking to replace it. But I don't know which part is what I'm looking for. Checked out Lian-Li website but it seem outdated and doesn't mention my case model even through it...

Recently built a brand new computer (See sig for spec.) Everything working perfectly fine EXCEPT for one thing. I'm using the on-board Ethernet and every now and then it would disconnect from my college campus network then attempt to reconnect resulting in some massive delaying in games...

How essential is the 35mm fan near the PCI-E Slots on the Sabertooth Z77? I ask this because I will have dual double slot video cards and a TV tuner. I'm not sure whatever to put the tuner on the 1x slot closest to the CPU which and remove the fan or put the other 1x slots and the tuner will...

Just noticed that most AMD and mainboard that support crossfire don't come with the crossfire bridge the crossfire bridge. Yet SLI bridge is included in practically every mainboard even through that board support both SLI and Crossfire. Whats the deal? Why the hell is that tiny thing $10...

So I have an SSD (Soon to be dual SSD in Raid 0.) for O/S and games. I currently use single 1TB seagate 7,200 RPM 32mb cache 3Gb/s HDD for picutre, documents, video, software, and backup storage. I would like to get a set of bigger HDD and set it up in Raid 1 or 5 array. But my question is...

I see many poorly designed video card shroud that isn't designed to exhaust ALL heat out of the vent in the rear. But instead dumps a lot heat inside the case? Why cant they make it so the shroud seals around the vent opening so all the heat go out that way? :confused:

I'm looking to sell my HP touch screen laptop model number TX2-1025dx.But I'm not sure how much I should sell it for. I paid a grand for it 3 years ago. Completely stock laptop but missing the digital pen. O/S probably gonna be Window 8 CP. Don't have another copy of Window 7 O/S nor do I...

I'm getting mixed results online... Can I or can I not crossfire two HD 6870 on my current mainboard which is MSI P6N Diamond. IIRC somebody said that crossfire will work on any board that support SLI. :confused:

I'm wondering if it's possible to change file directory from it's default location to to a different drive, and/or Dropbox? If so, how? O/S used Window 7 home Premium.

Is it being phased out by the LGA 2011? I ask because LGA 1155 have a lot more CPU choices and the boards aren't as expensive as LGA 2011 boards. But I don't want to build an nearing obsolete system with very limited choices of upgrade in the near future.

I'm reaching the limit on my 36gb WD Raaptor which I use for Window 7, various software, paging. I install all of my games onto my 250gb 7,200 RPM HD. The Raptor only have 4gb free space now. I would like to get two 120gb OCZ Vertex 3 MaxIOPS and put them into Raid 0 array. But for now just...

So my friend recently bought the parts to build a new pc for himself. But he's stuck at the point where the PC wont boot up. It would instantly turn off when he try to boot it up. Hes deaf so listening for the beep code is out. I live 8 hours away from him so cant personally go over there...

Bought this game back in Sept 2011, played for 20 hours but had to put it on hold due to college. But came back to it after my winter break ended. Never before have I enjoyed a single mode game as much as I did with this game. I enjoyed it enough to get every single achievements. Ran...

So my friend and I was talking about random shenanigans and she brought up surge protector... Personally I only use the surge protector to plug in the electronics but not the coax, ethernet, and phone line. Is it possible for lighting to kill anything through those wires? :confused:

So I'm considering one of those case to replace my antique Antec case but I'm skeptical because of the PSU overwhelming amount of wiring... And those Lian-Li case is tiny as hell. I'm concerned that my wires would get in the way of everything else. I only use the following wires currently. 1...

So I run games at 1920x1080 on single monitor... Native resolution of my 40" LCD. I'm aware that the current high end card like 6970 would be overkill at this resolution with the current games out there. Is it still worth buying if I don't upgrade my video card every 2 months... But rather...
