Okay, so I'm looking to buy a new 2560 x 1440 monitor after upgrading to my GTX 970. Is is powerful enough to run the latest games at good-quality visual settings? I think I won't have to turn on AA with the extra resolution. Thanks

Try downloading CrystalDiskInfo: it's a great tool that gives you an at-a-glance summary of the health of your hard-drives. If I had it before September 5th, I wouldn't have lost my data on my SSD when it blew. http://crystalmark.info/software/CrystalDiskInfo/index-e.html

After attempting to install my new GTX 970 which would only give me a blank screen when powering up the PC repair shop told me that the rails on my PSU are not strong enough to power my new GPU. My PSU is a 950w & I figured it would be strong enough for it. With that said, do I need two power...

My BIOS is MSI ClickBIOS 2 & I'm installing Winki hoping to update it from there. From what I can gather it isn't an easy process...

I bought a Nvidia GTX 970 to replace my 680, uninstalled drivers, & put it in, but all I get is a black screen I already returned a faulty 970 already, and no. 2 is giving me the same problem. My PSU is 950w. Could it be my motherboard or a severe case of bad luck?

I'm looking for something in the region of 23 - 27 inches with a resolution of 1920 x 1080p minimum.

I'm having difficulty trying to find a good monitor for around $350 USD for gaming. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks

After attempting to open a video, I clicked on the .lnk by mistake without realising it. Now all my icons are blank & I can't restore them. Any tips on how to fix this? Thanks

Exactly the same happened to me; took it to a repair shop & they couldn't do anything about it. The drive is dead.

I'm buying a new copy of Windows with product key: I feel this is my only chance. Thanks for your help.

Hi, I can't open msconfig for some reason; I don't know why. I feel stuck at this point.

Ever since installing my new SSD my PC has been struggling to boot to my OS, sometimes it takes me two or three hard reboots to get past the POST check & to get it going. My BIOS is set to boot to my SSD primarily so I don't know what's causing this issue. On a side note, I have the previous...

I'll be staying with my 680 for a while, my minimum upgrade timeframe is about 12 months, depending on if anything big changes anytime soon.

My EVGA GTX 680 is one the finest of it's creed, I'd buy EVGA as first preference myself, or MSI. They have very good clock speeds. Or wait for models with higher video memory to handle lager resolutions.

As the title implies, I have two simple questions: Is the new 980 able to cope with the demands of 4K gaming & video rendering at close to 60 fps. In addition, is it a worthy upgrade from a GTX 680? Before that I had a 550 Ti, and the performance jump I'd seen was four-fold. i bought a 1080p...
