    Can't get 120hz to work!

    After researching a bit more, it seems my XFX HD7970 only supports DL-DVI-I or SL-DVI-D and the cable I'm using is a DL-DVI-D. Would a cable like http://www.amazon.co.uk/1-8m-DisplayPort-Adapter-Unibody-MacBook/dp/B003WVB86E/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top this work fine since 120hz is supported via...

    Can't get 120hz to work!

    Thanks Shaun, When I install the drivers it says my driver is up to date, although I've just researched and apparently there is an issue with the XFX HD7970 and getting 120hz out of the DVI, according to a guide I should go for a DisplayPort to Mini DisplayPort cable! I sure hope this fixes it!

    Can't get 120hz to work!

    Hey guys, I went ahead and purchased a Iiyama ProLite G2773HS monitor this weekend, it was on offer for £80 cheaper than usual because the Accessories (Dvi cable and booklet) were missing, I obviously snapped up this offer really quick as I wanted to test out 120hz gaming. I was firstly using a...

    Hi guys, I currently have the OCZ ModXStream Pro 700W PSU and I'm just wondering if it will run two HD7970's? I'm currently running just the one card at the moment but I'm wanting to upgrade to a 120hz monitor and crossfire. I've read up on reviews that the crossfire of these cards takes up...
