    Bent socket pins but everything working.

    Hi all! I recently upgraded most of my gaming PC, but had to replace i7 4970k horrible cooler with an aftermarket one since I was having heating issues, I replaced the CPU too in case it was faulty just to be sure.

    Can my TV handle 100hz on a PC?

    Huh, I thought maybe the 500hz mci were the ones who were the "fake" hz, doing the thing that you said about adding more frames to make it smoother. What does the 100hz actually mean? There isn't a way to have more than 60hz on my pc with this tv then?

    Is it worth the improvement?

    Thanks for the quick replies! My problem was that I thought my processor will be screw up the performance improvement. So, should I run most new games and far cry 3 in 1920x1080 with low settings just fine? I will be okay with only that.
