    Hi Lutfij, Thanks for your inputs. Do you mean I should go for a more expensive card? Above costs around 36k which is within my budget. Also, will NVIDIA card have any issues with AMD builds? If not any suggestions for an equivalent card? EDIT: I see that the 7700 XT has a good review...

The reason I ask is because as per what I have read, if a CPU has no integrated graphics, the motherboard would need a dedicated graphics card to display anything on...

    Decal flicker when playing games

    Ok, so my description might be a bit odd, but what is currently happening is this: Imagine you're playing an RPG (say Skyrim). In the graphic settings, you set the object draw distance. Depending on this setting, when you're close enough, the distant objects start appearing (and disappear when...
