1440p and vram

Good point. As this monitor isn't very known to the normal consumer, most people who are interested find these monitors through various forums/threads dedicated to just korean panels and these threads usually provide all the info they need for selecting the correct monitor. A well known thread...

Exactly as F2F said. The model that they tested was a multi input variant, not the single DVI-D which does not have a scaler and does not skip frames when overclocked. I'd recommend you a review by NCX of the correct model...

I'm aware of this forum as I'm soon hitting my 10-year mark :) Ironic as it sounds I've never used SLI or cared to, even though I'm an enthusiast myself. And taking this inexperience to notice, hearing Communism's words as adding another 770 would be pointless threw me off. But I think I...

I still don't understand why it would be pointless to buy another 770, unless the difference from a higher clocked CPU is vast. Thus I'd appreciate if any empirical results could be shown.

Do you mean it would bottleneck in terms of minimum/average FPS? If so, what amount of difference would there be? Could someone provide empirical benchmark links for reference? I've looked for SLI tests with 4770k stock vs OC results to no avail. Gaming would occur in 1440p with whichever...

Do you mean it would be pointless for me to get another GTX 770 because of my CPU? If I understood your opinion correctly, could you elaborate why?

The price difference between the 2 and 4 GB model is the thing... A Gigabyte GeForce GTX 770 2GB costs 262, while the 4 GB costs 328. Thats a difference of 66 (~90$). Do you think it's worth it?

Know what, you're absolutely right. So I'll play along Larry. All I'm asking for is a fast and reliable controller that has RAID features and supports my disks (2TB) and mobo. Has at least 4-8 ports and doesn't cost more than the SuperMicro controller Syntax Error recommended (that I am...

I looked for the AOC-SASLP-MV8 here in Finland, but unfortunately couldn't find it. However I did find the AOC-SAT2-MV8. Not a bad price at all for an 8 port SATA II controller either - 103.90 ?. Although missing the RAID 5 feature, I'm quite sure RAID 0 is the one for me (that is if i plan to...

Alright, so we've got one positive reason for each of them. How about power wise and stability? It's kind of the decider here for me. Also the adapters for SLI. Since I've never had SLI nor CrossFire earlier, are there loose adapters available for Power supplies that don't include them?

Oh, I just used the newegg sites as a product resource. Here where I'm from (Finland), the price of the PCP&C costs 149.00? and the Thermaltake costs 129.00?. So it's quite the opposite, they cost almost the same :)
