  1. Cool thanks for the replies, What do you think would be more suitable, the Prodigy or the 380t?
  2. Hey Guys, So I just moved house and I dont have quite as much room as I use to, so I was looking to do some small upgrades to my rig and the biggest change would be moving into a small form factor case. My rig at the moment: Radeon HD6870 i7 950 LGA1366 Asus P6X58D-E Motherboard 4x 6Gb G. Skill Ripjaws 1600Mhz Ram 2x 1080p 60Hz monitors So I'm looking to upgrade the graphics card to a R9 290x, but its a little worrying in a small form factor case with the heat output, I will be getting another 1080p monitor as well, but ill only be gaming on one monitor at a time. As for cases my ideal one would be a Bitfenix Prodigy, but they obviously take a MATX board. So any other suggestions for the case and graphics card would be great. I'm willing to change the board but would prefer not to. Thanks,
  3. One more question. I was just looking up prices, I can get a: Gigabyte R9 280X OC 3GB for $317.05 or Gigabyte R9 290 4GB for $389.3 Which is best value?
  4. Ok thanks for that, I may just save a bit more and go for the 290. It would last me longer anyways. Thanks for the help.
  5. Ok thanks guys. If I chose to game on the 1920 x 1080 monitor, would it make any difference?
  6. Hey guys, So I'm looking to upgrade my video card, and at the moment I'm running a dual monitor setup both 1920 x 1080 monitors. However I was looking to get another one which is 2560 x 1080, I want to run all three of them but only game on the 2560 x 1080 monitor, the rest of the time it will be used for web design and Photoshop work. My budget for the card is under $400 (but I do live in Australia), and I was looking at an R9 280 at the moment, but I'm not sure if it will be able to support it. So any recommendation would be great. Thanks for your help.
