    ASUS Announces ROG SWIFT PG278Q Premium Gaming Monitor

    From the last page: https://twitter.com/ASUSUSA/status/468817571421356032 More like 6 weeks. Computex is next week though. Hopefully we see some G-Sync monitors that will hit the market sooner(weeks) rather than later(months (still nothing)) like CES.

    ASUS Announces ROG SWIFT PG278Q Premium Gaming Monitor

    Totally agree with the "old days" of CRT greatness. As a possible return to form this has been one of the worst paper launches for me. 6 months later from CES and no native G-Sync monitors readily available to buy or even see. With the recent FreeSync announcements we'll probably see more...

    G-Sync IPS 27"?

    As an artist and a gamer who likes to be competitive: Gaming on a shitty dithered 6-bit TN panel irks me the most. You lose an incredible amount of detail, that I feel impacts game play negatively. Anyway, hopped into this thread cause I too am looking for a good G-Sync Monitor (why's it taking...

    CoolIT ECO C240 Performance Review @ [H]

    I wanted to use Triple Channel on my X58 board. I ended up with two of these Cas7 ddr1600 for $335. Compared to the 4x3 DDR1600 kits, they all start $480 for Cas9. I couldn't find a better deal than the ram I picked. Could have gone with slower 4x3 DDR1333 and save around 30 but didn't. There...

    CoolIT ECO C240 Performance Review @ [H]

    I got this unit in a push config. It works for me because I needed access to all DIMM slots, and it exhausts air out of my case. It's cheaper, with less maintenance than a full blown watercooling set up, while keeping good airflow and motherboard functionality. It's near silent with good...

    One card in SLI setup overheating - Airflow problem??

    I went through the exact same thing the OP did. Asus P6X58-E, 2 Gigabyte GTX460 1GB SLI. However, I had a Coolermaster Storm Sniper. Initial set up was SLI in both x16 slots. I did the exact same thing in swapping cards and got the same results. 65C air accessible card and 95C+ on the...

    Which GTX460s?

    I have just done what the OP seeks and with these Gigabyte 1G cards (OC to 815 core, 1630 shader and 2020 memory) and can absolutely agree that good chassis ventilation is good, but more important with these Gigabytes is having at least 2 slots inbetween each cards and not 1. 1 will have the...

    New LG24" Monitor detected as HDTV - Any way to force as monitor?

    I have the same issue with the mentioned LG246W monitor. Monitor appearing as HDTV with display issues. What has to be done is overriding the EDID to see it as a Monitor rather than an HDTV. These are the methods I found and use. Run "Regedit" & Navigate to...

    Corsair H70 CPU Cooler - First Install @ [H]

    Looking forward to seeing reviews of this with comparisons to the H50, the Eco 120/240 and air coolers. Would like to see if I should have waited a bit longer to give Corsair more money. As an aside... Just built a system and was looking into these all in one liquid cpu coolers because...
