  1. Is an HDR monitor pointless for me?

    I don't think there's much benefit for you outside of using HDR for non-PC stuff. There's no traditional monitor-sized options out there right now. HDR is only worth it if you buy either an OLED tv (expensive) or a higher end LED TV which can achieve high peak brightness and has local dimming...

  2. Geforce GTX 1080 Ti now official - Faster than Titan X ($699)

    The way nvidia was talking you'd think there was going to be some improvement on the reference cooler, but I guess not. Too bad. It would be nice to have a blower style cooler that can perform decently without sounding like a hair dryer. Since I game at 4k I definitely want one though. Any...

  3. Regular/patterned seeking noises on hard drive when not in use

    I tried the hdparm app, and it definitely does disable APM (I can see the difference in crystaldiskinfo), but the regular click still happens. Maybe I have to accept this is how the drive operates. At least it's nowhere near as loud as the Seagate was. It happens even on the freshly formatted...

  4. Regular/patterned seeking noises on hard drive when not in use

    Thanks, I will try this hdparm app and see what happens.

  5. Regular/patterned seeking noises on hard drive when not in use

    Do you mean the Seagate or the HGST I have now? Because I already had one of the Seagate 8TB drives for over a year and it has never made any of the noises the new one made. Both drives are the same model, but probably different firmware since they're manufactured over a year apart. As for...

  6. How do you finance your GPU purchase?

    I find that people always overpay for used Nvidia GPUs on ebay. I keep it in good condition with original box, have lots of HQ pictures, and people pay way more than it's worth. Even accounting for the fees, you can still do well. So that lets me upgrade pretty regularly without too much out of...

  7. Regular/patterned seeking noises on hard drive when not in use

    A couple of weeks ago I got a new hard drive for some mass storage (Seagate archive 8TB). It worked perfectly fine -- speeds were normal and it passed any test I ran it through. However, with total regularity it made a seeking/clicking noise every 5 seconds. And the pattern of noise is the same...

  8. What display are you rocking?

    Philips BDM4065UC. 40", 4K, and a VA panel with inky blacks. I love it. Actual, post-calibration contrast is something like 5x better than my previous IPS panel.

  9. What do you consider the best deal in used graphics cards?

    As others have said, 980ti if you can spend anywhere close to $300. The vast majority will do 1400+ with ease, and at that clock speed it is well placed in between stock 1070 and 1080.

  10. New Pascal Titan X!

    Only difference this time is it probably won't come as fast as the 980ti did (11 weeks after Titan).

  11. Do you think the 1080 Ti will even be released?

    Nvidia likes money, so probably yes. The Titan XP has a limited (though surprisingly large) market. Once everyone who wants one has one, they'll release something else to encourage upgrades for 980ti owners on the fence.

  12. In the market for a Gtx 1070, is there a consensus on which are the best to get?

    The Windforce 3x cooler is pretty good. Perhaps a bit louder than some others under load, but not dramatically (a few decibels). The MSI Armor is completely barebones (no LEDs, no backplate, etc.) and I think the heatsink isn't quite as beefy as the Twin Frozr, but it works fine. As others have...

  13. Can a GTX 1060 max out WoW at 1920x1080?

    Fluffy effects added to a "2004 engine" is selling it short. Modern WoW looks quite good at max settings. People play WoW because they keep adding content.

  14. Can a GTX 1060 max out WoW at 1920x1080?

    The old "Ultra" you see in benchmarks is roughly 7.5 on the new 1-10 scale they added in patch 7.0 (a week ago). 10 is very demanding. It's mostly better shadows, more draw distance, and more grass density. At 1080p you should have no issues at all. However, at 4k even a GTX1080 struggles to...

  15. Gears of War Ultimate Edition

    It came out today. $29.99. 53GB download. Early reports say it runs like crap on some AMD cards (with visual artifacts to boot). Also, no GSYNC, forced vsync, forced borderless windowed mode, and everything else you've come to expect from windows store games.

  16. I dont like this 0 RPM fan deal... it's no good

    Pretty sure you can do this via modding your bios. At least I can on my 980ti. I never changed those settings on mine because I like the fans turning off, but I could clearly see those settings represented as editable values. You use Maxwell Bios Tweaker to change the parameters then nvflash...

  17. Pre Order the HTC Vive on the 29th for $799!?!?!

    Just so people are aware, the Rift is supported in SteamVR. Valve doesn't discriminate. All they want to do is sell software. It's a common misconception that only the Vive will support steam. The only exception is a handful of games designed for the motion controllers, but at this stage they...

  18. Gears of War Ultimate Edition

    Windows store exclusive? That means no SLI/crossfire, no gsync, no freesync, forced borderless windowed mode, no injection mods like sweetfx, and many other limitations. More info here on why: http://wccftech.com/windows-store-terrible-support-games-microsoft-fix/ It's definitely one way to...

  19. I am not impressed with my Nvidia GTX 970

    This might help you tweak your Fallout 4 performance: https://www.geforce.com/whats-new/guides/fallout-4-graphics-performance-and-tweaking-guide There are several settings that can be turned down for little to no loss in visual fidelity.

  20. [ Guru 3d ] AMD Teases PCs with Radeon Fury X2 Dual FIJI GPUs

    By the time there are HMDs with dual 1440p screens the GPU landscape will probably change quite a bit. For the upcoming generation with Rift and Vive I think we'll see some decent stuff visually. Yeah, 2160x1200 90fps is demanding but if they make smart choices on what to downgrade you can...

  21. [ Guru 3d ] AMD Teases PCs with Radeon Fury X2 Dual FIJI GPUs

    Dual GPU isn't even supported yet according to Oculus because of latency issues: https://www.reddit.com/r/oculus/comments/3zjets/how_well_does_sli_play_with_oculus_many_sli/cymm7r7 They are working on a solution though. Most VR games in development today for gen 1 are built around a...

  22. 6700Ks getting better?

    Mine has a similar stock voltage (also a recent purchase). What voltage do you use to get 4.7? Mine is 1.325 adaptive with LLC 5 and it is stable so far (a stress test pushes it to 1.350-1.375, but normal load is 1.325, idle 0.8). D14 has no problems cooling it. Adaptive voltage was a disaster...

  23. [Guru3d] Oculus Rift Pre-Order $599/€699

    Here is VR in the simplest terms, for those who still think it's just a 3D display strapped to your head, or like a nintendo virtual boy or something: http://i.imgur.com/DwUPIIH.jpg Later this year you should be able to see it demoed in some stores, or maybe you'll have a friend who gets one. I...

  24. AMD Fury Series disappointment

    It's the clock speed they run at while playing a game. It stays there as long as it doesn't thermal throttle or hit a power limit. The whole base/boost clock thing is a misnomer really.

  25. AMD Fury Series disappointment

    If you look here you can see the various overclocks they got with the different cards. Obviously it varies from sample to sample, but in general 1400MHz is a given with aftermarket cards. Heck, a card like the MSI Lightning boosts to 1400MHz out of the box I believe. Performance gains over...

  26. WHY did Logitech discontinue the G9x?

    This happens for all the mice I like. I'm the opposite of you and like huge palm grips. e.g. Microsoft Natural 6000 mouse, Steelseries Cataclysm mouse. Both are like $300+ new because they've been discontinued. Kinda off topic but if anyone has any recommendations for giant mice like that, I'm...

  27. [Techspot] 4K Monitors: Can you actually see the difference?

    Depending on the monitor scaling quality, you can run games at a lower resolution on 4k monitors and it looks fine. It does on my Philips 40" anyway. Most of the games I play (Blizzard games primarily) can run at 60fps in 4k, but for the games that can't I just run them at 1440p to get my 60fps...

  28. 32" 1440 monitor Samsung? BenQ? Other?

    Both monitors probably use the same panel, it's too bad TFTCentral hasn't reviewed the Samsung yet to get a better idea of any differences. It looks like the Samsung uses PWM backlight dimming at <30% backlight setting, so if you want to calibrate to 120cd/m2 or lower without PWM it could be...

  29. Picking a SINGLE large monitor?

    The BenQ BL3200pt is a great monitor. Used it for over a year, but eventually I wanted bigger :P Now using the 40" Philips BDM4065UC. The BenQ has better brightness uniformity, and also doesn't have PWM backlight dimming. In rare cases people can be sensitive to that (I'm not thankfully). The...

  30. [PCGH.de] Fallout 4 Benchmark

    Try your god rays at low. No real perceptible difference but you get more frames. My CPU never seems to go above 40% utilization or so... wonder if that's because the game only utilizes 4 threads? (your i5 vs. my i7). In some areas around Diamond City I can dip into the 40-50fps range (granted...

  31. [PCGH.de] Fallout 4 Benchmark

    It's an .ini setting in Bethesda games. Basically determines how much of the world around you is loaded in full detail. It used to be a memory issue, but now that FO4 is 64bit it is stable. If you have the spare performance, it's the single greatest leap in image quality (for outdoor...

  32. next big mmo?

    Nothing in the foreseeable future. At least nothing at the same budget level as WoW/SWTOR/ESO. The fact that Blizzard abandoned their next MMO project should tell you something. They would have been competing against themselves in a limited market. WoW is still enormously successful (despite...

  33. Which 980Ti?

    I wouldn't use the advertised boost clocks as a deciding factor. Non-reference 980Ti's always boost higher than advertised numbers out of the box, and then they all overclock beyond that. The advertised boost on mine was 1279mhz but it was about 100mhz more than that out of the box, and I...

  34. [Ars] Should we be required to create an account to get drivers?

    I use GFE and never once have used the settings optimization feature. It's not on by default as far as I know (if it was, I must have turned it off when I originally installed it). I prefer to use the old fashioned control panel or just adjust within the game. At this point I mostly use it for...

  35. Why is my 980Ti GPU Temp too high?

    Still seems kinda high for idle, is that the stock cooler or the ACX? Maybe it's normal for an SLI setup though. Plus other factors like case airflow and your ambient temp. My single card idles like this (ambient temp is around 19-20C, which might be chilly for some people) (Fan at 0 RPMs...

  36. Fallout 4 System Requirements Announced

    Just to be safe: http://gfycat.com/BeautifulCheerfulKakapo

  37. StarWars Battlefront gameplay debut April 17th

    It looks pretty and has the big gimmick of being Star Wars, but I don't think I'll be buying this at launch for full price. Actually had it preordered for like 40 bucks through some coupon, but I can refund the preorder. Just feels like there's not much there. So their beta kinda backfired on...

  38. Time for another "I'm getting too old for gaming" thread

    I'm the opposite. I have an extreme dislike for multiplayer shooters, and I know part of the reason is because as I got older my reflexes and overall reaction time have dropped considerably. "Back in the day" I was crazy good at twitch games like Quake 1 and Quake 3. Now I'm terrible. The only...

  39. Fallout 4 - it's official! Coming Nov 10, '15

    It'll definitely handle it, but it all depends on your desired frame rate and detail settings. No idea what the recommended specs are supposed to give you in terms of that.

  40. Fallout 4 - it's official! Coming Nov 10, '15
