    I have a similar problem, and would very much appreciate any help anyone can give.

    If my monitor refresh rate is 60 hertz is my game fps 60?

    For those of you who are saying that framerate is always 1/2 of the refresh rate, you may want to check your facts. While it is true that many TV manufacturers out there produce TVs with extremely high refresh rates (whose framerates are limited by basically every device that can be plugged into...

    If my monitor refresh rate is 60 hertz is my game fps 60?

    I know this is a bit late, but disabling vsync/running at a higher fps than your monitor supports will reduce input lag related to the video output. The only real reason to enable vsync is if you're experiencing unacceptable tearing, which can usually be significantly reduced with a newer...

    Is my processor powerful enough?

    Basically, I'm wondering if my AMD FX-8350 bottlenecks my MSI GTX 750. I've used both of them for several months now, and in the majority of games I get 60 FPS no problem on ultra. However, I recently started playing BeamNG.Drive, and several other CPU-heavy games, and it really started driving...

    How much does my AMD 8350 FX affect the performance of my gtx 970 MSI?

    ...Huh. Thank you, I had no idea about that. Thanks a lot! Also, does anyone have any idea if the HPET timer has any issues when turned off on Windows 10? (I've run the CPU for about 20 minutes on Prime95 on the maximum heat setting, so I don't know of any)

    How much does my AMD 8350 FX affect the performance of my gtx 970 MSI?

    As a second point, I upgraded the cooling on my PC and turned off HPET timer (Windows 10). I haven't had any issues in about 3 weeks, aside from taking off a decent OC on my GPU so I wasn't taking more power than my supply could handle. Would that cause any potential issues I don't know about...

    Total failure of audio after installing new GFX card

    I'm just going to guess that this thread will get no more attention now or in the future, so I appreciate the work you tried to put in, krypt... guess I'm just going to have to deal with SoundWire until I can get a new MB... assuming that that's the problem.

    Total failure of audio after installing new GFX card

    Any other ideas? Having my audio at a latency of approximately 60-80 ms is a little aggravating. Tomshardware is pretty much my last resort here.

    Total failure of audio after installing new GFX card

    I have never used HDMI, and that's the only thing I can think of that it's switched to. I've tried the audio jack through the case, and the jack on the back of the MB. Neither work. I usually use the one on the back of the motherboard. (For now, I'm using a temporary solution with the SoundWire...
