Hey guys. I'm thinking about buying the Dell AW3423DW which has a resolution of 3440 x 1440 but no display scaler over DisplayPort, which is the connection I will be using. For games that don't support 21:9, I want to play in 2560 x 1440 (16:9) and have the black bars on the sides. That does...

Hey guys. I'm considering bying an ultrawide monitor for my setup. The one I've set my sights on has a resolution of 3440 x 1440. I'm a bit worried if the card will be enough for that resolution. I currently play on a 2560 x 1440 display and it works well for me so far as I have a long backlog...

Hey guys! I would need some advice on a new gaming monitor. I have had IPS displays in the past but I can't really get used to the low contrast/poor black levels compared to VA panels. So I have been looking at the following monitors: Samsung Odyssey G3 - Seems to have great contrast...

Hey guys. I have a TOSHIBA THNSNJ256G8NY SSD (258 gb) on my laptop (an MSI Raider 17") My temperature is high, at 64-65 degrees Celcius at all times, even though the SSD isn't doing anything. Even when I just browse the web, and "current disc activity" is at 0%, it is still at 64-65 degrees...

Hey guys, I have a laptop (MSI GE73VR 7RF 058NE Raider) and I have some short freezes/stutters when I play some games on my hard drive. It is a mechanical drive, a HGST Travelstar 7K1000 HTS721010A9E630 32MB 1TB. Do you know what the problem might be? I'm certain it is the hard drive because...

Hey! I need to buy a fiber optic HDMI cable at 6 meters in order to use my pc with my 4k tv and a controller for gaming. I'm a bit concerned about possible input lag though, as the signal is converted to light in the cable and then back again. What do you guys think? Do i risk increasing input...

Hi! I recently needed to pull the lan plug out of the Ethernet jack on my motherboard. The plug was stuck rather hard in the socket, so I had to use some moderate force to pull it out, while rocking it from side to side a bit. At last it got out (it FLEW out!). Now I'm concerned I might have...

What do you think about this monitor Eizo FlexScan S2433WFS? Granted it will have very good black depth and contrast, but will it work for gaming? (ie. without ghosting/smearing/trailing). I´ve tried the Eizo Foris FS2331 before, and while it had superb image quality it had some smearing and...

Hi I´m having a huge dilemma atm. I recently bought a HP Zr2740w monitor, and it has some uniformity problems (a dark stripe across the screen, a few inches from the bottom edge). In every other aspect the screen is very pleasing. No dead pixels or subpixels, no backlight bleeding (or...

Hi! I now have a HP ZR2740W monitor capable of 2560 x 1440 and it looks pretty sharp for games. My graphics card is a single Sapphire Radeon HD6870 1 GIG VRAM. I can run most games with satisfactory FPS (including recent games like Skyrim & Deus Ex: Human Revolution) in 2560 x 1440. Does...

Hi! I use my monitors to game (mostly) and I really, really can´t stand it when dark games don´t look dark enough. These are the monitors I´ve tried out so far: - Samsung S23A750D - great for FPS due to 120 hz + response time, but horrible for games like Deus Ex or Doom 3 due to excessive...
