Hi, I've been trying to troubleshoot issues I'm having with my 1440p 144hz monitor. It's an Acer ED273UR I bought looking to benefit from its freesync with my new 6800xt gpu. However, I'm experiencing some pretty weird behaviour. It started when I turned on VRR in my amd settings, note that...

There is, I have it on atm. without VRR enabled in the AMD options everything is fine. VRR is what seems to be causing the isusues.

With my new GPU I'm trying to get VRR to work. I've been having issues where at random my screen goes black for a second or two and then goes back to normal. I'm also experiencing some minor flickering of the screen. This only happens when I turn VRR on in my AMD options. M<y monitor is fully...

That puts my mind at ease a bit. I understand the CPU will hold me back in some games. I don't know if it's confirmation bias but it seems with every change I do my fps and performance in games becomes worse and worse. Probably my mind playing tricks. card behaves well under stress tests, no...

Hi Everyone. I recently got my hands on a XFX 6800 XT and from what I can tell is underperforming compared to even reference cards. I've tried everything, reinstalled/udpated drivers, uninstall previous cards drivers with DDU, updated my Bios, played around with the settings. nothing seems to...

that's what I'm doing at the minute to not run into any more black screens but I would like to know what the underlying issue is. IS it a drivers issue? is my GPU faulty in some way? hopefully there'll be a set of tests/troubleshooting I can carry out.

Hi everyone. Currently having some issues with my new GPU or display when I turn VRR on. it seems at random the screen will go black for a couple of seconds and return to normal. it seems also that it's a display issue since the image acts regular on videos I've recorded where the issue...

The 2600X that I got was only 20£ more than the 2600 and since I don't plan on overclocking it seemed like the best choice, specially since I would have had to get a separate cooler if I went the 2600+overcloking way. I took your advice to some extent, since the seasonic are much more expensive...

thank you for the very detailed reply, I ran across an offer which was also recommended on a separate forum for a cooler master MasterWatt 650W for a bit more than the CX 450, would that be a good option or you recommend going for the lower wattage, higher quality ones?

As the title says. I am upgrading my CPU, MOBO and RAM and for this I need a larger PSU than what I currently have. I would like my budget to stay within the CX 450W range but am unsure if it will be enough. I don't plan on overclocking the CPU (hence the 2600X), The motherboard I chose was a...
