All you need is a computer whose GPU is powerful enough to display at 144+ fps and a corresponding Displayport cable (or HDMI 2.0+). By connecting the Displayport cable from the PC to the monitor and going into "Display Settings" and changing the refresh rate from default 60hz to 144hz, you will...

That is interesting I am not sure what the cause is. I also have this problem on an HP All-in-one that is hooked up to a second monitor, and I was able to deduce that the increased GPU strain of the second monitor was causing the screen to flicker on the first default display. I would try...

Try running this deadpixeltester in fullscreen (f11) to see if they remain "dead". Sometimes it can be a "stuck" pixel that can be reverted through quick color changes. If they remain dead on each color, then they are indeed dead, but atleast this will give you peace of mind before making your...

Inside of the Nvidia control panel settings, you must enable G-sync to turn on for both windowed and fullscreen applications, otherwise the default is only fullscreen. Once you've enabled it for both, it will work for both windowed, borderless windowed, and fullscreen. However you might see the...

Is this for all greyish background? I have this problem with certain applications (dark themed spotify) but not static colors (i.e. a simple image of a grey background). Perhaps test it with a full screen paint image of a grey background and let me know if the flickering persists. If you have...

Hey there, The disadvantages of the 6300 are as follows: 1). Most games don't take advantage of the AMD multi-core hardware, and use only a % of the CPU, leaving the gamer with less fps. 2). Once you get an 6300, there's very little to go from there. There are existing CPU bottlenecks for an...

Technically yes. You have to tweak the settings substantially, but you can obtain the results as seen in this video: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOEOd3cVDJc) Good luck man.

Hey there, Don't worry, any GPU that is labelled as "PCIe 3.0 x 16" will work just fine in conjunction with a 550w power supply in a PCIe 2.0 x 16 slot. The performance loss of using a PCIe 3.0 card in a 2.0 slot is virtually irrelevant for most consumers (about 0.5 fps). Name a modern card...

Yes that 350w power supply will be enough. Your estimated power usage is ~253w, so you don't have much room for overclocking, but you do meet the minimum requirements to run the new CPU. I can't say I trust a 350w PSU too much, and it may pose a risk for your components in the long run, but for...

The 2050 mhz stable core clock is very good, even above average. However, your memory overclock can most likely improve - try +600mhz on the memory to reach ~4600mhz on the memory. Personally, I was only able to reach ~1900mhz and ~4700mhz respectively, so props to you for your fine core...

Unfortunately, there is no longer a recommendable CPU upgrade path for the AMD FM3+ socket type, as there have been little to no updates to the CPU line since 2011. Here is why I can no longer recommend AMD CPUs (even though I own them): The disadvantages of the AMD FX series are as follows...

Yes, since both the CPU and your motherboard have an FM2+ socket, the upgrade would be compatible. Cheers mate, hope this helps.

I think that's quite common now a days, as software inflation increases RAM usage. It might be time to upgrade to 16 gbs. To find out what is using your ram, activate task manager by "Ctrl+alt+dlt -> task manager" when playing your game. Cheers mate, hope this helps.
