    GTX 1060 White Casting/Tinting Screen

    368.81 was released on July 14th, so that's the one I got. It's all good now after I install the latest driver and tweet with the HDMI colour thingy. Thanks all! I didn't know HDMI has issues with colors and whatnot.

    GTX 1060 White Casting/Tinting Screen

    Thanks for the help! That article on how to correctly setup HDMI colour is useful, am wondering why HDMI has such issues? Also, I updated my driver to latest 372.54 published on August 15, it helps to clear the bugs in League. Am also wondering why the July 2016 driver does not work, league is...

    GTX 1060 White Casting/Tinting Screen

    HDMI to DVI, I have a HDMI to HDMI cable so if that's what it takes. Also, it appears to me that it is a driver issues when I use skill-shots there are white boxes zooming out in League. Never expect nVidia would have driver issues...I will try to fix the color loss from your article.

    GTX 1060 White Casting/Tinting Screen

    Since someone on the main GTX 1060 thread suggested me to start a new thread so that my issues can get more exposure and hopefully get them addressed. I received my 1060 yesterday, and when I try to setup my wallpaper (I usually get high quality photos from interfacelift), the images appeared...

    Geforce GTX 1060 Thread: faster than RX 480, 120W, $249

    So I received my 1060 today, but when I try to setup my wallpaper (I usually get high quality photos from interfacelift), the images appeared washed-out to me...Or am I illusion? I download the same images I previously used and I remember they look much sharper on my 5 year old HD 6950...I see...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    Right on, can't agree more to your comment. I'm carrying a 3.73 cumulative GPA and expected to graduate from college this fall. I major in Geographic Information System, know some programing and all that, but I hate what I'm doing. Great and genuine advice regardless. Doing well and getting...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    Given that I'm a broke college dude with my HD 6950 on life-support, I can't afford a GTX 1070...If XCOM 2 isn't that demanding and/or poorly optimized, I would have went with the $199.99 RX 470... I read the 480 is pretty close to the R9 390 performance, which struggles to reach average 60 FPS...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    AMD really dropped the ball on this one, still waiting for my rx 480 nitro pre-ordered on Amazon on July 25th...If my games aren't that demanding to begin with, I would have jumped ship by now if not earlier. Maybe I should look into the 1070 when it drop below $400. It would be crazy for me to...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    I have a friend still using his GTX 460, but he rarely plays PC games or any games in general now. When did you pre-order yours on Amazon? I guess if I haven't found this forum I would have jumped ship already. I imagine many gamers already jumped ship because they can't pick up any rx 480...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    Since I waited this long, I might as well get the after-market cooler, which I have pre-order from Amazon on July 25th. I have already placed the Sapphire Nitro 4GB pre-order on Amazon, so don't know if I still need the alert thing. Mang, this wait is getting into my head now all I remember...

    So UK gets 10k units of 480s while US Amazon still shows temp unavailable? Let me better rephrase my question, how many units does US Amazon received from AMD? On the other link your provided from ocUK whatever that called, they suggest ppl who pre-order from Amazon can check their que...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    I thought I was delusional to spot brand preferences and/or biases from posts in this forum, and now I see being new to this forum should take all advice with a grain of salt. I also speak/read Chinese, from what I've been reading, Radeon cards are perceived as inferior ones in China not...

    Is that why we have a shortage in rx 480 :'( Comon now you have 12 of those 480s and I have 0...And I actually need 1 to play games. No wonder Nvidia always has an upper-hand in the gaming market, not because of performance per dollar, nor the longevity of driver supports and optimization, but...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    So you are saying Newegg collects taxes for states that don't charge taxes? Correct me if I'm wrong, but we have to pay sales tax in California, and I don't think Newegg will deduct $10 before calculating taxes, they would calculate the total based on the listed $279.99 instead. Don't forget...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    Howcome the 8GB version is $10 cheaper on amazon than Newegg? Amazon has it for pre-order @ $269.99 and Newegg @ $279.99? So Newegg contributes to the GPUs inflation as well by actively participating in collecting "early adopter fee"? Edit: I don't find Newegg offers the 4GB model, so I'm...

    Let's hope you two aren't working for Amazon, Sapphire, and AMD haha, Just kidding! Okay, I know I get paranoid when something fails on me, I just hope I don't have to deal with RMA at all for at least 3 years because I don't upgrade often. I read horror stories about Sapphire RMA, I mean this...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    So I read that Sapphire is extremely strict when it comes to RMA and its policy, do you guys think is safe to buy the RX 480 from amazon? On the Sapphire website, it has a list of RMA policy, and one of them states No RMA: -"Products not purchased from an official SAPPHIRE distributor or...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    I just pre-order the Sapphire RX 480 Nitro 4GB directly from Amazon, found it on Nowinstock. Not sure how long that's going to take to get my card but it's free shipping so that's a bonus. Considering how scarce new GPUs have become, I say the 4GB nitro is well worth $229.99 ($250 after tax). I...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    I saw some artifacts before the 6950 collapsed on me today, so I'm guessing there might be some overheating/melting going on for the internal components. XFX says they will send me a replacement fan free of charge, but not sure if they have my model in-stock. Plus, even I do reapply thermal...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    I don't care about which brands as my 6950 went dead on me this morning. I was 19 and didn't know anything about GPU and I picked up my first GPU - 6950 solely because it comes with lifetime warranty. I gotta tell you, now I'm running cardless, and AMD this year has been nothing but...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    The 6950 has officially died on me. Well, XFX says they can mail me a replacement fan free of charge or I can buy it online if they don't have it in stock. XFX says I can reapply the thermal paste/heat sink myself and not voiding my warranty even though I will have to remove the sticker...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    I'm going to rant a little bit so that I can get this off my chest. If I'm rich, I won't even be on this forum asking what is the best performance per dollar card right now. I will just grab the GTX 1080 and pair it with custom water blocks, and call it a day. The fact that I'm collecting food...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    You suggested me to pick up the RX 480 based on my gaming needs in the other thread. I forgot to ask your opinion on which AIB brands (for AMD) has the best customer service, specifically RMA service? Since you listed Sapphire as first I just wonder you might have some stories to tell :cool:. I...

    Should I Upgrade My i5-2500?

    Amazed you can guess my monitor running at 60hz, thinking about upgrading my 1080p monitor to 144hz too, but not sure if it worth the cost and trouble since I don't play FPS games at all, and mostly strategy games, which don't require high refresh rate. Yeah, if R9 480 deliver the...

    Should I Upgrade My i5-2500?

    You got me on the overheating part, I have not replace the thermal paste since I got the GPU, which is 5 years ago. They have those special screws locked in the card and I don't wanna pay $35 iFixit tool-kit or whatever you call it to just open up the lid and replace the thermal paste. $35...

    Should I Upgrade My i5-2500?

    Right on, I'm running a XFX HD 6950 2GB @ 1080p, I bought the card because it has a lifetime warranty. It's a 5 year old GPU and this year it starts to show its age as I play Hard West and the temp got up to 93 Celsius.. I don't intent to game at 1440p any time soon, and given the games I...

    Should I Upgrade My i5-2500?

    AMD Polaris Thread: Radeon RX 480, RX 470 & RX 460 launching June 29th

    My XFX HD 6950 2GB still holding up pretty well, maxed out games I play at 1080p so I don't feel the urge to upgrade this summer. But eventually I want to pick up a new card, R9 490X or GTX 1080 whichever is cheaper. How much performance gain am I looking from these new GPU? I'm mostly play...

    290X vs 780Ti2016

    I built my first PC in 2011, I was 19, and it sports i5-2500, Radeon HD 6950 (2GB). Up to this day, my rig still runs everything I wanted except I can't run Hard West without overheating my GPU. With all these rumors about Nvidia dropping supports for older cards, I'm not sure if I really want...

    Upgrade from ATI 6950

    I also have the same GPU as the OP, XFX 6950 2gb. I'm mostly play League of Legends, but there are few new games I want to play, XCOM2, The Flame in the Flood, The Banner Saga series, and Hard West. For some reason, when I try to play Hard West on the 6950, my gpu temp gets to 93 degree...

    GPU Upgrade

    You should seriously get off your "seniority ego" in this forum, and being new does not mean I don't add values to OP's post. My main point was to make OP aware Sapphire after-sale experiences in recent years, especially RMA cases. Isn't this clear? And BTW, if I were to bash Sapphire, I would...

    GPU Upgrade

    I know Sapphire makes one of the best cooling solutions for AMD, and perhaps they make solid cards overall. BUT, what about customer service? What about RMA? What about after-sale experiences? Most importantly, what if your Sapphire card have hiccups 1 year or 2 years down the road? You...
