    Question I just want to run 4K on a monitor using AMD FX Processors and RX 460 Video Cards... but I get mixed results! Help! Not a Gamer, just a regular guy!

    Well, I found it... or I think! Turns-out I was using an older version of VLC Player. I initially went to VLC as it is a Light version and was working great on 2.7K resolution (mostly). Window Media Player CHOKED on 1440P or above, so I long-ago abandoned it for high resolution playback...

    These machines have all had recent Re-installs of Windows 7... with no archives from present adding/removing drivers, devices etc. I'm trying to compare apples to apples here yet I'm seeing oranges!

    Run AMD FX in 970 Chipsets... and RX 460 Video Graphics. Seems I get mixed results with very similar towers. Worst seem to come trying to watch 4K content on 1080P monitors. 2.7K monitors do better, but not consistently. HELP! How is it my FX-6100 suddenly worked GREAT attached to a...
