    [SOLVED] Could my single GTX 1070 give me decent fps on a QHD 3 monitor setup?

    Upgrading my gaming setup since my microboard 3440 superwide is having backlight issues. I've got the Gigabyte GTX 1070 Windforce OC 8GB GC and I've been pretty happy with it on my 3440x1440 at 100Hz. Whether she'll handle a 3 monitor QHD Setup is the question. The monitors I'm going w/ are the...

    Question Is a 32" 4k Curved 100hz w/ VESA mount for <$500 the new unicorn??

    Nonsense!! I want my cake and eat it to! :( lol...I guess at this point my best bet is probably just to hold out for a 2nd used microboard monitor...of course since they don't make them anymore (at least from what I can tell based on the M340CLZ model), looking for another microboard might as...

    Question Is a 32" 4k Curved 100hz w/ VESA mount for <$500 the new unicorn??

    Because I can't find it, and I've spent wayyyy too much time trying to figure out the ideal configuration after my recent office remodel. I don't think the specs I'm looking for are unrealistic, but I can't seem to find a monitor that has everything! Here's what I'm specifically looking for...

    Question Lost - old or new, HD or 4K, HDMI 2.1 apocalypse?!

    Thanks for the advice! So you think the bottleneck today is the graphics cards instead of the monitors or transportation format used? There seems to be a fair amount of moderately priced 4K monitors. It's not until you add the curve or the higher refresh rate where the prices seem to really...

    Question Lost - old or new, HD or 4K, HDMI 2.1 apocalypse?!

    Hi Guys, Made the mistake or replacing my old, ratty, disgusting carpet in my office w/ some ceramic tile and opened pandora's box. That of course led to, new paint on the walls, new paint on the trim, repainting the bookcases, some new furniture, and finally - the setup. I'm not gonna lie, I...

    What size monitor 27" or 24"?

    I'd say it depends on how far away you plan to be. If you're sitting at a desk, I have 2 Asus 248s that are both 24" and they're both more than adequate. I had a 27" imac with a 4k display and gawd it was sexy. If you're talking about watching movies from across the room, then I say bigger is...

    Now I done it...Raid 1 partitions gone! Help!

    Thanks guys!!!! EaseUS did the trick, though I did have to pay $70 for the software to restore more than 1gb...worth every penny to get all that work and pictures back! Only thing I had to do was reorganize everything once it was restored, and I'll probably have to update all my shortcuts for...

    Now I done it...Raid 1 partitions gone! Help!

    Got a big problem. All my work, kids pics, music, videos Practically everything but the OS was housed on 2 1.5tb Seagate HDs I had in a Raid 1 configuration. Well, I had 2 Samsung 840 SSDs that were acting funny so went into the bios to check things out. Turns out the 2 SSDs were controlled by...
