    Did my monitor just break? (LG Ultrawide)

    Did you do anything or just let it sit? I have mine unplugged on the floor now ready to be tossed out soon. The lines didn't go away after a day so I don't know what to even do besides recycle it.

    Need more desk space so looking for a mount or stand or something to help push monitor closer to the wall

    I don't have a battle station and i am running a suite of huge monitors. I have one basic old Dell with a 100x100 Vesa pattern from work and with me now no longer going into the office I need to have a way to move this more up and down and give myself more desk space. The desk itself is about 5...

    Did my monitor just break? (LG Ultrawide)

    There are two HDMI inputs, and yes, it's only HDMI. I tried two different cables in both HDMI ports across two different PCs.

    Did my monitor just break? (LG Ultrawide)

    I was sitting here in the past hour minding my own business doing nothing of anything and suddenly the left hand side of my monitor went purple and now has scanline looking things. I tried both HDMI ports on the back as well as a second PC, all have the same things so its not the video card or...

    Need a modern replacement for a slim line Antec MT-352

    It's in a slim line Antec case. It's a bit old so it only has 2 SATA power supplies but now I have there. Everything else is ATA and I no longer have any of those devices. It's a strange size so I am not exactly sure what replaces it. Link...

    11+ or so years using an A-MVA, how bad would switching to a TN be?

    It's an older BenQ monitor. Bought it back in.. 2007 or 8, I forget exactly, because it wasn't a TN panel and back then TN panels were terrible, if you moved a few inches off center you couldn't see a thing. Now a days I think things have improved but I still haven't used one in a long time...

    How much luck goes into getting one of those that will work or will I need to be going nuts over dead pixels and RMAs? At that price it has absolutely everything I am looking for..

    1440p 144Hz Monitor on a Budget

    The PX277h you posted, does that play well with Nvidia cards? Do I need to worry about dead pixels and a bad panel lottery? It's not being sold by Amazon so having to return it might be a big pain.

    27" 144hz Freesync/Gsync monitor I can actually buy? Monitor shopping is rough..

    The lottery game is what worries me about buying from a 3rd party or smaller seller what can you do? I'll end up paying $$ to return and restock because pixels are dead or backlight is broken. The sites listed below do feature reviews but tend to focus on the higher end more expensive models...

    27" 144hz Freesync/Gsync monitor I can actually buy? Monitor shopping is rough..

    I am looking through everyone's suggestions and see a lot of monitors but my issue is that everything is impossible to buy. Unless I am going through some eBay seller or getting it imported from China or Korea, I can't get it. With all the issues people have and reports of having to deal with...

    Would getting a new monitor matter for me? (1080p gamer)

    1080p 144hz IPS "coming along"? Meaning they dont exist yet? As for Ultrawide, as I only have a 1060 and wont be getting something new for many years to come as I just upgraded it a few weeks ago, would I even be able to run anything on that?

    1440p 27" monitor for light gaming - do they exist?

    I dont really need any sort of gsync or freesync premiums, I just want a step up from a decade old 24" normal monitor. I play plain old games, nothing competitive online, mostly single player RPGs and such and some light MMOs. Trying to sort through the choices out there and just get myself...

    Quiet fan for a Phenom II X6 1045T in a slim Minuet case?

    Yup, Windows 10, and I really can't remember it if was this crazy before when I was running Windows 8. All I know is now when I watch even a simple video the fan goes nuts but the temp of the CPU sits around 30 something. 85mm is the maximum height I can put in this case, and that would be...

    What should my Q-Fan temp settings be at for an X6 1045T?

    In the BIOS, in an attempt to quiet my CPU jet engine before I get an after market cooler, I have a couple of temperatrue settings I can modify for the q-fan speed control. For my CPU, a 1045T AMD chip, what should I put these settings at, the bottom three on the image, to keep it from going...

    Quiet fan for a Phenom II X6 1045T in a slim Minuet case?

    The fan that came with this chip sounds like a jet engine, I can currently hear it over the washing machine that is running and the TV that is playing. All the PC is doing right now is playing a Twitch stream full screen and the fan blasts full speed at all times when the computer is doing...

    Upgrade for a low profile 6670 with a Phenom II X6 1045T chip?

    I went ahead and got the 750. It will be here in the middle of next week, I will report back on how it does, we just started Bioshock Infitinte's Burial at Sea DLC last night so I am looking forward to getting this so we can jack up the graphics during our first play through.

    Upgrade for a low profile 6670 with a Phenom II X6 1045T chip?

    So no matter what this new 750 won't need some huge low profile PSU to go with it? For the price I don't see how anything else out there will even compare. I will be CPU bottlenecked but it should be a nice leap from the AMD GPU in there now.

    Upgrade for a low profile 6670 with a Phenom II X6 1045T chip?

    Half height, I am running a slimline case thats only a few inches tall. This is the PSU in the case: Antec MT-352 Micro ATX Power Supply - Newegg.com Would I be okay with that or do I need something more? PC has just a single hard drive and a DVD in there that is used very rarely. Network...

    Upgrade for a low profile 6670 with a Phenom II X6 1045T chip?

    It's a low profile HTPC that has slowly been morphing into a low profile gaming PC hooked up to my tv. I have upgraded the CPU as far as it will go on the current motherboard and running a low profile 6670 GPU. What is the next step I should take in the low profile GPU world to put in the slim...

    750 ti to 780 make a difference?

    Why? If it's that big of a step up over what I am running now and also much cheaper (used) than anything else out there, what would be wrong with going from a 750 to a 780 if its that big of an improvement? With all of the suggestions here, outside of waiting for the 480, the price is at...

    750 ti to 780 make a difference?

    A brand new GPU is coming out that will cost as much as an older GPU is going for used right now and use less power and perform better? But it's AMD and not Nvidia, I havent had an AMD GPU in several years and the last time I did venture over to the AMD side the card actually exploded in my...

    750 ti to 780 make a difference?

    Core i5 4690k cpu. Moving from a 750 to a 780, is it worth about $100? I figure I can sell the 750 for $80 or what have you bucks and then get a 780 used for $200 or under, so its not that big of an investment. The 780 is only 30 numbers higher than a 750, so will I see an improvement in...

    Whats the next step up from a 24" IPS display?

    Can this be bought new from major places? I am looking at Newegg, Amazon, and others and either everything is used or from random third party sellers. Also this is Freesync, so that means it is useless for Nvidia, right?

    Whats the next step up from a 24" IPS display?

    Are these korean imports pretty good? Youtube folks seem to like them Is there a reason there is nothing really available in the USA that can compare? I think after reading all of this a 27" 1440p IPS is going to be my next step forward. 4K is overkill right now and I cant power anything at...

    Whats the next step up from a 24" IPS display?

    Gaming PC. Not twitch FPS stuff, slower paced single player RPGs, MMOs, and 4x type sim games. Screen size -- really just something larger than 24". I sit 12 inches away from the screen so going too large would cause problems and I wouldn't be able to see everything Resolution -- higher...

    Whats the next step up from a 24" IPS display?

    I have had the same monitor now for quite some time, a 24" BenQ that was highly reccomended in it's day and has served me very well for the past 6 or something years I have had it. As the rest of technology has moved on and my CPU has grown from a Core 2 Duo to an i5, my monitor has remained...
