How in the world are headsets 5.1, 6.1, and 7.1 Surround? I get that fundamentally it's software trying to simulate a physical arrangement. But how can anyone claim that 7.1 vs 5.1 or 6.1? when ALL headsets have two speakers?

MistaSparkul. it seems all the G-Sync monitors are TN panel. I think I want IPS now. so should I just ignore g-sync and get an IPS 1440p? or is it critical for FPS Gaming?

Is this being worked on or not?

Ive been reading and now really torn between a 4k but limited to 60hz screen or a 2560 120/144hz screen!!!

Ok so which is better? the ROG SWIFT or Acer XB270HU

MistaSparkul, Thanks for your input, even though the 970's have that shitty 3.5GB thing going on. They will eventually be replaced when something better is available, however a monitor is a longer term commitment, so even if I can't get the most out of a 4k monitor because of the 970...

I am waiting on shipment for my second GTX 970. The plan is to do either 2.5 or 4k Gaming with Two GTX 970's in SLi. The U28D590D seems decent even for being a TN Panel. is there something else to consider?

I am using a stock 4790k, two SSD's and two WD 1tb Blacks, Cryorig r1 ultimate Fan inside a Corsair carbide air 540 with all stock fans

I might be in trouble.. according to this arcticle..http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/nvidia_geforce_gtx_970_and_980_reference_review,7.html I need a minimum of 800 watts.. "Here is Guru3D's power supply recommendation: GeForce GTX 970 or 980 - On your average system the card requires you...

Will this PSU be able to handle the demands of two 970 running SLI? http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Modular-Bronze-ATX12V-EPS12V/dp/B00ALK3KEM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1411666990&sr=8-1&keywords=corsair+750

Is sapphire to AMD what eVga is to nVidia?

Thank you.

Yesterday I was ordering a lot of parts on Newegg including the AMP edition Zotac GTX 770. tThere was a problem with the order and after fixing it this morning I was getting ready to re-order everything, but the Video card went up $60 over night. Newegg wanted me to order at its new price of...

Whats better than Driver magician? I've been using it for years and have had some anomalies, but last night was the worst, I backed up all drivers on an Acer Aspire. All seemed OK, I created a self executable, then as a back up,( from past experience) I chose the option to back them all up in...

There is no benefit to me making up something like this. I live in Florida. I also didn't realize how much of the bill was going towards the rig, but this is true. Even today I own a Macpro 3,1 Tower with the 2.8ghz Quad core. and when I turned it off for a week the bill went way down. but to be...

I definitely want Quad. I find them to run more smoothly when multitasking.

Few years ago I had a Q6600 running at 3.4ghz and a 9800gtx. I felt like king of the Hill then. Went through Games like Crysis as if they were nothing. Then I had some kind of problem, I ended up going back to stock voltage and clocks to troubleshoot. ended up staying like that for a month.. My...

Intel's chapest 65W Quad is $189 on Newegg. I guess I have to bite the bullet.

Well I at least would like to play the new Wolfenstein. then work backwards.. when I say work backwards, I mean I haven't even played Starcraft 2 and that came out maybe 3 years ago. I like to game at 1920x1200 with all eye candy turned on, so I guess I might need a decent GPU. But like I said...

So what I am hearing is, an Intel 65w will use less energy than an AMD 65w? If this is true then how could they be rated the same TDP?

I thought the AMD A8-6500 Richland was 65w? I think they have a few 65w quads.

Didn't hit the lotto yet, so I am trying to spec an AMD Quad rig for Workstation/light gaming. I don't plan to overclock and will be running 24/7 so need it to have a low TDP. What should I look into please?

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So 7750?

No, they use the same GPU's as PC users. so any off the shelf gpu will work, its just PSU's and RAM that have to be made specifically for your machine, everything else is like normal.

I apologize for the humongous picture.

Its a mac pro. it only has what it was meant to have, there are no extras. look at the tower on the right There are no molex to adapt from, even the SATA power comes directly off the motherboard. they don't use standard off the shelf power supplies. and as far as I know if I tried to...

I have a Mac pro from 2009 or so. Looking to upgrade the GPU. The PSU doesn't have a 6 pin connector so it won't take a high end card. Is there anything better than a 7750?

thank you.

Plan on playing Starcraft 2 and Farcry 3 at 1920x1080 Upgrading from a Radeon 4950

Consoles were capable of doing 3d Graphics since 1995, that probably had something to do with it.

Is there something similar in price (up to $350) and performance but has the ability to use an SD card? I guess Im looking for HSPA+ since I intend to use it on T-Mobile or Simple Mobile.. Heck maybe even straight Talk. Im currently out of contract on a Sprint Epic 4g In South Florida, right...

People say Deus EX and SS2 were super great games, but I just cant get past the old graphics after about 20 mins so I end up not playing them. this thread kinda makes me wanna bear thru it and give it another try

Look at the alternatives..

This really has me thinking now.. whats the best overclocking Quad on the market?

That would explain only the single thread benches in these series of test. but even with multi threaded the gap wasn't wide at all..

I just compared the 3770k to the 3930k http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/551?vs=552 The quad-core is beating up the 6 core in tests, or barely behind in others.. how is this possible? the Quad has less Physical cores, less Cache but only 300mhz higher clocked (but again its still across...

That's a little childish. I no longer have time to keep up with what does what anymore. I'm just looking for the fastest cpu on the market. So I don't have to upgrade in 2 or 3 years. Im upgrading from a Q9550 running 4ghz. as far as I know this is the fastest chip out, if you're saying the...

Should I buy the 3960x is there another extreme cpu coming out soon?
