    Upgrade/New PC June 2016 - High Budget

    Thank you. I will wait to see how things advance. I might wait until GTX 1070/1080 launches in my country, see if it's worth upgrading.

    Upgrade/New PC June 2016 - High Budget

    I forgot to mention that the Ashura cooler I have has 2 x Scythe GlideStream 140mm attached to it for better ventilation. Should I switch to liquid cooling ? I don't think there will be enough space with the Ashura coolers and 8 slots of RAM mounted.

    No 60Hz option on a 4K 40" monitor

    Quick update. Under the Resolution tab on NVIDIA Control Panel I have found two 2 categories: one is Ultra HD, HD, SD and the second one is PC. http://imgur.com/x7T40bH Clicking on the PC option and selecting 60 Hz will revert it back to this http://imgur.com/WQeFlBD after 10-15 seconds...

    No 60Hz option on a 4K 40" monitor

    Oh my, that seemed to do it, I changed it to DisplayPort 1.2 But after that, I was able to see the 60Hz option in the dropdown menu, clicked it, hit Ok then monitor turned black, back to normal and still on 30Hz. The 60Hz option disappeared again ( http://imgur.com/TSMpAQP ). I changed from...

    No 60Hz option on a 4K 40" monitor

    Then what on earth is going on. NVIDIA driver is up-to-date if it matters. Rest of the system is pretty good, running on an i7 4770k, 32GB RAM, 256 SSD. I feel like this is going to be a big problem for me. Can Windows 7 not allow the 60Hz refresh rate on such a big monitor ? but I highly doubt...

    No 60Hz option on a 4K 40" monitor

    The DisplayPort cable I bought is this one, at least the specifications: EDNET DisplayPort Male - DisplayPort Male, v1.2, 2m - so I guess it is 1.2 But I'm not sure on the GPU part. Does the GeForce GTX 960 Windforce X3 G1 GAMING 2GB DDR5 128-bit has DisplayPort 1.2 ? On the GPU...

    No 60Hz option on a 4K 40" monitor

    Hello. I just purchased the Philips 4K 40" monitor (this one: http://www.philips.com.au/c-p/BDM4065UC_75/brilliance-led-backlit-lcd-display ) along with a DisplayPort cable. I have connected both, everything worked perfectly and still does but I have a delay when moving my cursor and...

    Hardware and compatibility - important -

    Yes it did. My last question, would it work great on a GIGABYTE GA-Z97X-Gaming 5 Motherboard ? I had ASRock in the past and I don't trust them that much.

    Hardware and compatibility - important -

    Does an ASRock H97 PRO4 Motherboard go well with an Intel® CoreTM i7-4770K, 3.50GHz, Haswell, Socket 1150 inside a Segotep Fighter C Black-Red ? Will be followed by an ASUS Radeon R9 290 DirectCU II 4GB DDR5 512-bit and HyperX Beast 8GB DDR3 1600MHz CL9 Dual Channel Kit and OCZ Fatal1ty Series...
