    Need a printer advice

    I never assumed that ink will last more. Quite the opposite. I just needed to know how much worse it is. So with 5 papers a day on ink printers, I'm definitely running into turnover expenses. But the lowest color laser printer is 300 euro. That's not my budget for this solution... Well, okay...

    Need a printer advice

    Atljsf, so what you are saying is - that laser printers do not have anything that would dry? Their expendable parts last until they are... well, expended? Still, that means giving up color printing, and that's a lot.

    Need a printer advice

    I need a very basic comment regarding home printers. Being tired of constantly using some kind of printing service, with all the fees, transportation and file transfer issues - I've decided to give home printers a try. But... I've ran into some reality-related problems, where I found that not...

    Refresh rate\FreeSync\VSR(DSR) questions.

    Oh, no problem. It was still helpful to know the opinion about smaller resolution on a dense display. Like, if 1080p on 34inch display looks like it has huge pixels, then probably 1080p on 1440p is a similar scenario. After all, it's not a solution request, it's a discussion, and I'm interested...

    Refresh rate\FreeSync\VSR(DSR) questions.

    JED, I'm afraid you are misunderstanding my point. My goal is not to play 1080p on 1440p, but the other way around, through VSR. When I mentioned 1080p on 1440p, it was just as you said - if the game demands FPS, and that's an exception, not a goal. And, again, I understood that it's not the...

    Refresh rate\FreeSync\VSR(DSR) questions.

    Thanks, that's an even better reply, however, let clarify my question one last time. If I take, for example, this LG monitor, and VSR it to 3440x1440 - how different would it be from the real picture? I've seen DSR in action, yes, and it did perform better than plain AA, even if more taxing...

    Refresh rate\FreeSync\VSR(DSR) questions.

    Apologies, brevity is not my talent. My current GPU is irrelevant(GTX660), and I mentioned 1080ti mostly for the comical notion of 4k over 60 fps. I am trying to understand how these things work, and planning a PC update. Into AMD side, as I probably have hinted at. So, if I understood you...

    Refresh rate\FreeSync\VSR(DSR) questions.

    I already know that if you buy a 60hz 4k display, you are stuck with 60hz. And while it's not embarrassing even for 1080ti, 4k is a bonus where it works, which is still not everywhere. So, 4k is not an option. However, I wonder if goes the other way, sort of backwards compatible. So if I get...

    SLI / CrossFire FAQs

    If SLI\CF pretty much screws up VRAM, then I read that to select another GPU to process PhysX, there is no bridge required. How does it work? Is it considered SLI\CF, or it's something else, but still supported by drivers? Also - is it possible to use both Nvidia and AMD this way? So that Nvidia...

    Mobo RAM frequency overlock

    Oh, so it has something... or well, a lot of things to do with CPU? Unfortunately in my case it's not 4770k or any Hero, it's just: ASUS M5A97 AMD FX 8320 Since Mobo description says 1866mhz stock, and is overclockable, if I get 2x4 CORSAIR Vengeance CML8GX3M2A1600C9B 1600mhz - can I overclock...

    Mobo RAM frequency overlock

    I've been wondering, how does this work? I understand that CPU\GPU are overclocked mostly by software\BIOS\hardware stuff, but as I can't quite understand or see the answer in googled RAM overclocking guides, I hope it's not forbidden to try and ask it here. Search didn't help much. So the main...

    SLI / CrossFire FAQs

    After reading some lines from the article and your reply "Yes, it can be achieved, but VRAM limitations can sometimes get in the way, as in the future, more VRAM may be needed to run games well.", I've been thinking quite a lot about what does it mean. First I took it as: "If you SLI 2gb and 4gb...

    PCI-E 3 SLI on PCI-E 2 Mobo

    Well, while the subject is still a bit confusing to me, as to how is 8x bandwidth better than 16x, but that's technicall, probably better if I don't fuss. Just watched http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFMzRZqFh-w before reading your reply... So, right, seems like there is nothing to worry about...

    PCI-E 3 SLI on PCI-E 2 Mobo

    I've read plenty of threads stating that PCI-E 3 is nothing special, compared to PCI-E 2, that they are backwards compatible and not worth upgrading. Still, the majority of them are from year 2011-early 2013, and since now a real lot of cards support PCI-E 3 by default, as well as majority of...

    Building budget(500-1000$) PC, need certain answers.

    I've nailed it down to GTX760, as it's both Nvidia and relatively similar to R9 270X\HD7950 in value\price, but with new processor. In 2-3 years, if I SLI 2xGTX760 at 16+16, that should be fairly efficient for GPU, right? As for CPUs - I don't see good 1150 mobos now, and I've given up on 2011...
