called samsung tech support and the guy said to use 1600x1200 at 60hz with a dvi-d to hdmi adaptor and so far its crystal clear :) working well too i have 2 of these one is newer and only supports the lowest setting of 1600x1200 (different model and such) so far samsung's suggestion is working...

for some reason the display with a supported resalution of 1600x1200 is extremely blur'ed when i look in control panel its just called pdp. i cant find a way to sort the issue and windows according to samsung does not use the proper settings for uxga. its an enterprise level 42 inch samsung...

i have 2 corsair ax1500i's one is about a year old the other is around 3 months old.

psu has a software suit that automatically monitors and displays the amps as well as showing whats drawing the most power on each rail.

lucky i live in Australia in a fairly remote area on high voltage lines.......i was lucky the local government approved it right away had to use a government contractor how ever i get quite the power bill each month however

mhmmm been there done that had enough people have a go at me for god knows how many things from the fact that i short the second psu every time to the fact that none of the lights are needed and the water cooling loop does almost nothing at all but look nice.....sure the blue leds might be over...

the led strips are the killer here....ive seen them draw from 100 watts to 120 watts each... i guess thats what i get for running that many

depends on a lot of factors. the water cooling alone draws 220 watts. plus pumps draw 44 watts. fans are set to run at 2200 rpm and the system does not get shut down.......both fan controllers have lcd displays showing all fan speeds system temps and such....

just a note usafret it can be done i have the base system (mobo/gpu/hdds) on one the other runs around 12 fans water cooling as well as 2 fan controllers i have at least 10 led strips at 1m each maybe more........i go for looks on this build more then anything. the second psu is setup to run...

i have 2 1500 watt psu's the system draws 2200 watts idle due to my cooling setup and lighting and such. didn't relise that the psu the ssd was on was drawing 1494 watts idle. would explain why when the fans fire up and such the ssd speeds drop dramatically

i have tried a few different ways mostly moving different sized files....started with an 80gb video that i was rezing down. then tried a few 1gb samples. then made a script that made 1000 copys of a file 22kb in size then moved it back and forth on the drives...also tried crystaldiskmark. it...

running windows 8.1 trim is on and i have never defragmented the ssd. checking i have noted that the ssd is not getting enough power. swapping it to the second psu does make it perform a lot better but still seams to be at 100% usage for minutes at a time

some more info running a samsung 840 pro and a western digital velociraptor as a second drive intel core i5-4460 8gb ddr3 1600 duel channel (2x4gb sticks). gtx 750 in use at the moment just rma'd my gtx 770 with a cooler issue. issue will always happen unless the cpu is set in the bios to the...

when the drive was rma'd last time they did note the drive was quite sluggish when checked......maybe the drive isnt getting enough power.....nothings wrong in smart. controller is an intel controller....i dont know maybe theres something wrong with the mobo.

the problem is if i have windows 8.1 installed the cpu can not go above 400mhz. full stop. it just wont clock up. opening cpu demanding apps causes the system to slow to a stall and load things frame by frame. how ever windows 7 does not have any issues i have intel speed step turned off in the...
