    Is overclocking FINALLY dead?

    Little bit of room left in my case as well. It was a tight fit even with two of the fans outside the case.

    Display Port or hdmi to DVI-d

    I'm using two Asus VE247 monitors with dvi/hdmi output. I bought a pack of dvi to dp adapters to hook them to my 2080 super. I have two left sitting in the closet I need to make disappear. My primary monitor is a viewsonic 2401 and uses dp with no adapters.

    Silverstone GD09 - AIO Watercooling Edition x 2

    This past week I was having stability issues where all three monitors would just turn off and disconnect. I've narrowed it down to being caused by using one power cable on both the 6 and 8 pin of the card. I added another cable from the psu to the card and it has seemed to stop the issues...

    Silverstone GD09 - AIO Watercooling Edition x 2

    GPU temps are doing well but I'm underwhelmed by the CPU results. Part of the temp spikes are the vcore voltage changes when the computer is under load to get 4.2 ghz. CPU and GPU usually stay between 60-65C and it is pretty quiet. Things that made me a bit uncomfortable: 120 Radiator...

    Which video card would you purchase?

    I went a little crazy and spent more than I initially wanted but it will last me several years. Six years ago I purchased a 780ftw and still using it right now. Anyway... I purchased an EVGA 2070 Super XC Ultra Gaming Tri-Slot card. $530 new. It had good reviews and the cooler works well...

    Which video card would you purchase?

    I'm looking at buying a 2070 super with a thick heatsink to keep temps and fans down. My case is pretty small but will have plenty of air flow with pwm controlled fans. Thanks for all your input. -OP

    Which video card would you purchase?

    Actually thinking about going with either EVGA 2060 Super XC Ultra Gaming (3 slots) or the 2070 of the same card. It's 80-100 more for the 2070 version of the card. Cooler temps, less noise.

    TP-Link AC1750 Router | Polk Monitor 40 Series II Speakers | 24" Asus Monitor 1920x1080 60hz - some scratches

    TP-Link Archer C8 Router AC1750 Excellent shape, just not needed anymore. The reason I loved this router is it had built in QoS controls to limit not only downloads but also uploads. A great feature when your upload limit is under 5mb and someone is saturating your connection...

    Question, Should i sell my GTX 570 SLI?

    I sold my SLI'd 570s on eBay about a month ago and bought a GTX 780. Good stuff! Sold the 570's for 170 each and a 580 for 150 to a member here. Pretty much paid for the 780. eBay fees and shipping costs set me back about 50-60 bucks.

    Best gpu for i7 930?

    Your 295 is pretty much at the same level as a 570. I would personally skip the 4gb 770 and go for a standard 770 2gb card because a 770 really isn't going to use 4gb of memory. I had the 570 2.5gb cards and the performance was pretty much the same as the 1.2 gb card. You need to get your...

    Performance Update - 5xx SLI to 780

    Update - I had buyers back out of their bid on eBay so I almost broke even after selling the cards again. Not even close to the cash I needed for a ti. I did a little OC on the 780 and reached 9590 points. http://www.3dmark.com/fs/1647027

    I think you'd be ok with that processor as long as you didn't go to SLI later in that setup.

    Going TriSLI on older cards... Nuts?

    I know I know - The scaling gets worse as you add cards but I'm curious if adding a third 570 would benefit much on a 5760 x 1080 for BF4 to help with eye candy. The two cards I have are 2.5gb each so adding another 2.5 would be the only way I would consider it. Current power supply is corsair...

    I think I have my third PCIX slot working. Its a 16x slot so I want to run 16x, 16x on two of my PCIX slots using the nf200 chip on my mobo. I'll run the third card at 1x probably if a pcix. Either works I have both pci and pcix available.

    SLI GTX 570 2.5GB Upgrade?

    I was thinking about moving to the 700 series from my cards but for the cost I really can't see how I can justify the move. The performance of a single GTX 770 is slightly slower than the GTX 570 SLI but the cost is the issue. I'm thinking I could get around $250 for both 570's but that only...
