I've had this monitor for around 5 years now. I've been looking at the EVGA 2070 supers on amazon and the shipping is crazy right now with corona. One card isn't in stock til 4/24 another has a shipping date of 4/4-5/4. I'm not super impatient but a month? Yikes.

It varies, The Outer Worlds for instance is on my SSD. I keep 2 of my most played games on the SSD at any given time, the rest on the HDD. I haven't overclocked anything. I feel like it is what it is at this point. I may use nvidia shadowplay to try and get a video of the blur/fuzz situation at...

My System (pcpartpicker) It just doesn't look as clean and smooth as I expected. I started The Outer Worlds and on ultra I'm getting an average of 100fps, lows in the 80's but it still stutters a bit sometimes and doesn't look that great in my opinion. I've noticed in Doom Eternal on ultra it...

Yeah but I'm pretty sure that "off until needed" feature doesn't work without the Gigabyte fan software which I don't care for. If I set a fan curve in afterburner that starts at 30c/30% the fans will just constantly rev up and down, clicking each time. The performance isn't as good as I hoped...

I've been using the Gigabyte 2070 Super Windforce 3X OC (GV-N207SWF3OC-8GD). It just doesn't seem to be performing as well as I expected and seems to be a bit noisy. There is an issue with the fans not being able to be set below 40% also or that shutoff and on repeatedly and it causes a revving...

Using the @bios utility to update BIOS. Choosing "Update from file" and I've downloaded the latest BIOS for my x570 aorus elite. When selecting the file is: X570AE.12f the correct one to choose? The only other options are: efiflash(application)...

I bought a 2070 Super card (GV-N207SWF3OC-8GD) and I've been wondering if I should've spent more for a higher core clock. How much of a difference does 30 mhz make? Or maybe I should've just gone with a 5700xt.. Second guessing myself and I purchased recently from Amazon so I can easily return...

I got my new DisplayPort cable today and switched out the HDMI. Upon restarting PC, no blue screen. Need to test a bit more but seems the HDMI cable was the culprit. Odd because it's a quality cable and works perfectly with my TV.

I just upgraded from a gtx970 to an rtx2070 super. I forgot to buy a displayport cable so I'm using hdmi at the moment. I'll be buying a displayport cable this morning though. I've noticed in game things seem a touch "soft". Not sure if that's due to the hdmi limiting me to 60hz when I'm used...

So I pulled the trigger on a Gigabyte Windforce OC 2070 Super yesterday and noticed today that the EVGA is only $5 more. EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 Super Gaming, 08G-P4-3071-KR, 8GB GDDR6 VS GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2070 Super Windforce OC 8GB GDDR6, GV-N207SWF3OC-8GD I've read the EVGA is a...

Worked perfectly thank you. I did hesitate when it asked if I wanted MBR or GPT but a google search led me to an article stating that unless you specifically need MBR for compatibility you should choose GPT so I went with that.

I have a 128 gb flash drive that I'd like to format to FAT32. Its currently exFAT. Windows 10 only offers exFAT and NTFS as formatting options. I've seen some various programs that claim to do this but I hesitate to download software unless I'm positive its safe. I need FAT32 for a mobo BIOS...

I'll try to keep this simple. I upgraded mobo/cpu/ram recently. I sold my old stuff quicker than I thought. Now I have an extra $175 to put into my PC. I'm within my return window for Amazon. I could return any or all of the new parts and add the value to the $175 I got from the old parts...

I called MS, it took a couple hours but I finally got a new product key and got my windows 10 activated. I was able to use my Amazon invoice as proof of purchase.

I've getting mixed messaged all over the internet. I purchased Windows 7 from Amazon when I built this PC back in 2015. This past week I bought a new mobo/cpu/ram and ssd. I made sure to connect my Microsoft account to Windows 10 so that I'd have a digital product key and could simply sign in...
