Hi, I am trying to set up a triple monitor free sync arrangment. My graphics card is a r9 290x. It has 1xhdmi 1xdp and 2xdvi. My monitors are samsung 22 cf390 which support freesync. The monitors only have hdmi and d sub. I have hdmi of card to hdmi of one monitor, and dvi to hdmi cables to the...

But would the samsung perform better because of freesync? Or would that not make a difference in a triple set up?

Hi, looking for opinions on a triple monitor set up. My choices range from budget AOC I2269VW-B, asus vc239h ips, or samsung cf390 curved which is a va panel. I'm not sure which to go for. also I have a 27 crossover 1440 which i'd like to mount above the 3 monitor setup, if I do use it for...

I would like to build a htpc that can handle streaming and some light gaming with my steam library. I can't decide if I should go with a A10 7850k or a Athlon 5350 with a graphics card (I have a 6450 i could use with it). I have a microcenter near me where I can get the 7850k and a decent board...

hi, I just built my first computer and I went to the gigabyte website for drivers. there is a driver update, but also 2 bios updates. One of the bios updates is rev 1.2, the other is rev 3.0. Which one is better, and how do I update the bios? Do I just download and install or do I need a flash...

Hi, I plan on getting a hd 7950. Eventually I might get a second. Will a gold rated 660 watt seasonic be enough for the two cards? would it be better to go with a 750 or 850 bronze? I'd like to stick with seasonic.

is a corsair 430 watt psu enough for fx 6300 gigabyte 970 ud3 8 gb ram 1 ssd 1 hdd 4 case fans optical drive nvidia 650 or 660 hd 7850 or 7950 also maybe an overclock

how would i do that? also i have about 300 gb full on my hard drive, but i only want at most a 120gb sdd. I'm not sure how to get os to ssd and still use old hdd.
