Yep, it's a dedicated 43" 4k monitor (so not a TV as such), and when using any type of HDMI connection I get the led light up on the mobo and the beeps, but not when using the DP connector But when using my old 1080p monitor with the same hdmi cables, it starts up as it should do, no beeping...

Sorry, completely forgot that Asus TUF gaming z490 plus WiFi i9-10850K Gigabyte rtx 3080ti Gaming Oc 32gb corsair ram 3200 Corsair 850w gold+ psu 970 Evo 256gb ssd 2tb Barracuda hd Seagate 4tb ext hd Windows 10 Thanks for replying! PS, I've been advised to always go at least one step higher...

Hi again, I just wanted to give you some feedback after I found out a few more things! Apparently, as I was running Windows in 4k on the new monitor compared to the old 1080p 27" , it did make some difference to performance! I also did a tiny overclock on the gpu, and then set the Power...

Hi, me again... 🙄 Ok, as some of you may have already read, I've just bought a completely new system, and I'm having teething problems So, this time, when I start up the pc with my brand new Gigabyte Aorus FV43U 43" 4K monitor using the supplied HDMI 2.1 cable, the motherboard VGA led will...

And @boju Ahhhh, this is probably it! No, the 43" is set to display in 4k in the Nvidia settings!! So it sounds like it's that! I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to this type of thing, and this was really confusing me, but it seems that I was forgetting a kind of obvious part now that...

Thanks for the reply! So, what is making the bench scores consistently different then if not the screen itself? How can I be getting around a 3% or so loss of performance (I know it's not huge lol) just by changing monitors, and it happening every time I change over (either gaining 3% when I...

Hi all! As the question says I thought (possibly wrongly!) that screen size didn't matter with benchmark scores? I understand (also possibly wrongly lol) that if you use different resolutions that this could affect the scores, but I gathered that if you selected the same resolution on the...

Hi Thanks for the reply I'm currently on my night shift atm, so no access to the tests, but I'll have a look in the morning when I get home! Specs are Asus TUF Gaming Z490 Plus Wifi i9-10850K Gigabyte 3080ti Gaming OC 32g Corsair 3200 ram 970 Evo 256gb ssd 2tb Barracuda hd 4tb Seagate ext...

Hi! When I got my new pc 3 weeks ago, I tested it on Userbenchmark and the gpu was pretty high at around the 90th percentile ("way above average!!") I just got a new monitor and redone the test, and it's crashed down to the 38th percentile and is "operating below average"! 😳 😱 Is this to...

Thanks for the reply 😊 That's an interesting read, and also quite a surprise that even the old 4770k was not sooo far behind the current 10900k and previous 9900k at 4k ultra settings 😳 I do have another question, if I may? With the Nvidia gpus, it doesn't look like you are using them to...

I've noticed that most, if not all of the comparisons that have been done between Intel and AMD cpus and Nvidia and AMD gpus are only compared using 1080 or 1440 settings Is there any chance you can start using 2160 4K benchmarks and game settings considering that there are now many people out...

Yes, I just got a Rosewill Capstone G750 PSU (I got that based on info from here too...its apparently a Tier 2), and it has 2x 6+2 power connectors for the GPU :-D Thank you all very much for your input, it is very much appreciated to get such advice from experts :-)

I've had a look through everything that you all put here, and have come across this one It's a KFA2 (apparently GALAX in the US) GTX 1070 EX OC Sniper http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/galax_gtx_1070_exoc_sniper/ Currently available via Amazon.NL for 437 euro If anyone has time and...

Thanks so much guys, all really great advice here I'll check out the links you've given and have a good read through and check the benchmarks etc when I get home from work in about 90 minutes :-D Thanks again all, and if I have any other queries, I'll post them here
