    Question Screen Burn

    I currently have an issue with my BenQ G-Sync monitor - BenQ XL2420G - and it's been a problem for a while that only seems to be getting worse.

    GTX 980ti with FX-4300

    Hi. My GPU broke, so now I need to buy the new one as quick as possible. So my plan is to buy 980ti and soon upgrade my CPU to i7-4790k or something. And my question is for how much % my AMD FX-4300 will bottleneck the GTX 980ti?
