any ideas?

no, i'm simplytrying to add a third monitor. i have 3 monitors, each a different brand: Acer, LG, and Dell. They're all pretty basic. every one of them works just fine when connected to either the HDMI or DP port. none of them work correctly if connected to the USB port (via USB C-to-HDMI...

Hello, I'm having problem using the USB video output on my RTX 2060. I have three different monitors, one using HDMI, one using DP, and one I am *trying* to use the USB output. It doesnt matter which monitor uses which port, the HDMI and DP always work fine, but whichever monitor that i use...

IF you're not ready to buy an entirely new computer, THEN you can certainly get a better graphics card with what you have and I would recommend the RTX 2060 which sells for about $220. a your i5 is comparable to my Ryzen 5 1600, your 8G ram is on this side of sufficient, and your 500W PSU is...

A journalist buys 10 or 20 used cards from some place(s) where they can be reasonably guaranteed that the cards are verified to work before being shipped, will honor return policy if not, all while using money that isn't out of their own personal savings account anyhow. A single consumer buys 1...

another reason for me to believe that you computer may be receiving vibrations as people get up and down and move around, and that you should try removing then firmly reseating the GPU card after using electrical contact cleaner to clean the edge connector contacts and the PCI socket, as well...

sounds like the GPU is not seated fully and/or there is poor connectivity between the GPU pins and PCI socket. "Getting up from couch" is probably more generically related to someone moving about and causing vibrations that aggravate the already poor connection. fully remove the GPU and...

the questions you ask are good questions, and i don't have the answer. Perhaps i will try to relay it to the SW devs. i think you might be onto something, w.r.t. the GPU utilization. I don't mean to seem cryptic about the program, i just didn't want to distract from the issue. if it helps...

Hi, thanks for response for the past two hours of training i get the following: CPU usage for the 12 threads varies between 25-50% usage. CPU temperature for all threads fixed at 57C GPU usage is stable at 15-25%. GPU memory utilization constant at 5.8GB. GPU temperature fixed at 48C the...

given your budget constraint, and the fact you're coming from the GTX 1050 (and with a low-end CPU), i'd go with the RTX 2060. the RTX 2060 benchmarks about the same as the 3050, the 2060 is even a bit faster, and the 2060 is significantly cheaper: about $220 compared to the 3050 price which...

Hello and thank you for any consideration you can give me for my problem Situation: im using my GPU to grind away neural network training, which require days/weeks of constant processing. short story, it's an open source software that is well-regarded, is being been highly utilized by many...

i think you should get the RTX 2060. it's as good as the 1070Ti, but 1/3 less cost (you also get a free copy of Battlefield V or Anthem, if you buy through NVidia). the 2060 benchmarks *hugely* better than the RX580, and somewhat less power. to make an argument that he's "throwing away"...

thank you mgallo for confirming theVietGuy's answer. i would select both of you as the solution if i could. :)

i'm looking at the same sort of decision, and i notice the RX 580 has considerably higher power consumption than the 1060 6GB. i dont know if that matters to you or not, but its worth noting.

right i do get that the GPU's ram and the "regular" ram aren't directly related, but what i wasnt sure about was whether my MB would be able to use the newer GPU ram with it's different memory interface width and speeds I guess im feeling insecure about my MSI PC Mate B350 MB, i probably...
