I have a 7970 but eyefinity is not really what I meant

What I want to archieve is having a wallpaper slideshow on my monitors with both monitors using the SAME wallpaper. Now it seems like they both just choose a random wallpaper every 5 minutes. it was possible in vista right?

There aren't really power efficient processors on am3+ your best bet is probably an older amd athlon II x2 processor like this one: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/amd-cpu-adx250ocgmbox Or the cheapest possible processor: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/amd-cpu-sdx145hbgmbox

yeah

Try updating your drivers. Also try setting youtube to html5. https://www.youtube.com/html5

I'd go with the i5 290 one. i7 will never be fully used while gaming. the 290 is better than the 770.

The wireless chip is fried. Shouldn't have turned it on with water in it. You could probably still use it with wired controllers though.

Here is the Asus 780: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-video-card-gtx780dc2oc3gd5 The zotac is the highest overclocked so that's number one on the list. Second is the Msi. It has the second best clock and it has some cool features. The asus is probably the worst of the three.

You will need a graphics card. the only other way is to convert the signal to 3d I think your tv could do that but it isn't that great.

If you want to do 3d, you will need a discrete graphics card or a 2d to 3d converter box. I wouldn't reccomend the second option, but if your htpc doesnt have room for a gpu you will still be able to do 3d.

This is the performance difference you would be looking at. http://gpuboss.com/gpus/GeForce-GTX-760M-vs-GeForce-GTX-760 It is easy. Go for the pc if you are going to game a lot.
