Was looking at two very flash looking TVs today, a very slim LG OLED next to a slim Samsung ultra HD led 4K, both curved 55" displays , both running their showcase demos ..OLED demo appeared to have better color saturation and contrast but noticed some image pixilation.. the Samsung 4K had no...
In the past year my gaming has migrated out of the office setup which has a bunch of tasty displays and into the lounge which has a single 70" 4K screen. My fav spot for gaming is 8-9 feet from the screen and when gaming have ditched keyboard and mouse for wireless xbox controllers... Its no...
$350 NZ for that display is a mint price! Have the Samsung 28" 4K as centre screen in my office but have migrated Gaming to the lounge on a Sony 70" 4K @60fps which means my media centre has become a Silverstone FT02 turned on its side on wheels haha .. a humble 4770 @4.5ghz and SLI gigayte 970...
Most memorable graphic card purchase goes to 9700 Pro and Battlefield mod - Desert combat. My first experience of Silky smooth FPS with AA @max resolution in a cutting edge game of the time.
Biggest WOW factor so far = 4k gaming on 70" display with Gigabyte 970 G1s.
Some of my upgrades over...
I could buy 20 290s online and have them here tomorrow if I wanted as all brands are in stock here in New Zealand including the unlockable powercolor 290. They are all reference models however. I guess the crypto coin craze has not impacted supply here yet.. To the original poster if I was in...
Must say my weekend with Xfire 290x rig recently did impress me in terms of how smooth xfire runs while playing battlefield 4, it was all dandy until the cards started to throttle and I upped fan speed to 75% while beads of sweat started to accumulate on my forehead from the increasing room...
Its not about dragging down anything. Its about sharing experience. Sadly many who have not experienced both SLI 780s and CF 290s still offer their 2 cents worth as if they know it as fact. The 290x is a wicked card, however when you CF two of them in their current form there are legitimate...
Actually she stomped down the hall so I could feel the vibration of displeasure through the floor as I had my noise cancelling heaphones on. Re- edited for descriptive accuracy..
After gaming for a few days on a reference cooled crossfire 290x rig and also as an owner of a SLI GTX780 rig I've noticed some very distinct differences which is why I recommended GTx 780s over 290s at this point in time.
- Firstly the CF 290x rig put out bucketloads of heat! to the point I...
Perhaps my wording was a little vague, I was referring to SLI 780s offering the best "USER" experience rather than price/performance. Recently I built a rig for a customer with Crossfire 290xs and have been playing about with it over the weekend, its summer here in NZ now so it is warm but I...
By low end I'm guessing you mean reference 780s? There's nothing low end about them! :colbert: . Compared to a single card your looking at close to double the performance as they scale nicely. Out of the box SLI 780s offer the best user experience around right now for the $..
His reaction when he saw the bill for Karlitoses rig? Congrats on your baby boy by the way Karlitos! :thumbsup: Wonder what kind of monster rig he will build when he grows up..
After using 30" and 27" displays for a long time now, the prospect of using a 24" display even if its 4K is not very tempting. 4K at 30" or larger is a different story entirely and am looking forward to see what 2014 brings especially once hdmi 2.0 is available..
True true, guess Im thinking 4K Ultra HD memory requirements as affordable mainstream 4K displays may very well may be the norm by mid to late next year when manufacturers like Seiki bring out their models with HDMI 2.0 and the Koreans get their hands on affordable 4K panels.
Also Oculus Rift...
That's impressive power usage with just 2 cards. Have just purchased a third reference evga gtx 780 so will post wattage results once the Asus Z87 WS arrives. :awe:
Thankyou for sharing that, that is why the Enermax LEPA G1600 is my fav PSU, unfortunately I couldn't get hold of one in New Zealand so settled for a humble Max Revo..
An idea like that could lead to a PC that is the watercooling! :o If it hasn't been done yet? The framework is the tubing and the panels are rads with Filters with maybe exterior panels with spacing inbetween for fans to be attached to the rads, vents at the bottom of the case to draw in coolest...
My runs 72Hz overclocked but really cant tell the difference between the stock 60Hz. I considered buying two more as they pivot and having them all in portrait mode but the Bezels would probably annoy me so am waiting for HDMI 2.0 or display port to be on a 4K for under $1000US..
I second that! Check your attitude Tifosi248F1, people that respond are taking the time to offer advice but with your poo attitude you don't deserve their help..D:
In my sig is my display collection. At the end of the day and even with several 1440 displays that can easily do 100Hz I still prefer the 30Q5 Pro for gaming..
Looks like Heaven and Valley are utilizing just the primary card:thumbsdown: Early days yet. That Fire strike score you posted has an insane graphics score m8, and in the top 3! combined score would put you in 15th place overall if the drivers were validated :o
Awesome score! :awe: That's part of the fun with AMD cards, there's often a lot of tweaking involved before you hit the sweet spots and as you say the drivers are still young. Looking forward to seeing your Heaven and Valley benches and if you take the top spots. Keep em coming! :thumbsup:
Just got back from a 24hour shift and checked in to see how Mr Karlitos is getting on with the highly anticipated benchies.. talk about leavin everyone hangin! Come on m8!
