Hi Fellas, I am looking for new headphones and I was wondering if people could recommend me a few headphones. I am looking for over ear headphones for music that are under 200 dollars. I have a little wiggle room so 210 would be fine as well. I am looking for headphones that are also comfortable for long uses and don't use the type of leather that flakes after a couple of years. Thank you for you recommendations and or starting points for my research.

I have enabled multi selection for the questions? I guess it never saved when I made the survey live. But it should be good now

Hi I am a student at the University of Toronto and I would appreciate it if you fellow gamers can take a couple of minutes ~3 min to fill out my survey. The survey is on gamers preference on the format of their video game purchases. The survey is open to anyone but you must be 18 years of age or older. Thank you and I greatly appreciate your participation. Here is the link: https://qtrial2016q1az1.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_9GrbAX253gTGmMd

GTX 970 Randomly Lose Connection to Video Output
exshadowz replied to exshadowz's topic in Troubleshooting
Did all that before and still did it. how do you revert to an older driver. Sorry I never had to revert so I don't know how to do this? -
So I originally upgraded from a GTX 560ti twin frozer from MSI to a MSI GTX 970 100 ME but I had issues with the card randomly shutting off and losing signal to my DVI. At that time I had both cards in my PC with the 560ti as a dedicated physx card. So after the problem persisted a few times I was told to remove the physx card and I did but the problem still persisted. I proceeded to do a clean installation of Nvidias video driver and it worked for a week and then the problem came back. So I decided to contact MSI customer service and he helpped me create a RMA and send it in. During the time I used my 560ti and I had no issues. About 2 weeks from sending in my 970 I was told that they had no more GTX 970 100 ME to give me a replacement and if I would accept the GTX 970 Golden Edition. Of course I accepted that replacement and I thought now that I have a completely different GPU I should be fine. Well I was really wrong as after 2 days of installing the new GPU the problem persisted. So I thought maybe its my DVI cable that's just unstable with the 970 for some odd reason. So I switched to a HDMI as I didn't have another DVI laying around. After a few hours, well the problem came back. I also realized that most of my random shut offs came from being on Chrome and I read that Chrome's hardware acceleration was causing people some issues. So I turned that off and am now waiting. But if this does not work can someone please provide me with your expertise on what I should do to solve this issue. I am new to the world of custom gaming PCs and is my first major upgrade from when I had a friend build this for me in 2009 or 2010 (not 100% sure when I built it) My Specs: i5 2500k @ 3.30Ghz MSI GTX 970 100 ME ----> Now a MSI GTX 970 4G Golden Edition MSI GTX 560ti (Dedicated Physx Card) -----> currently no longer in my system 8GB RAM 750W Ultra X4 PSU

Alright so I did a clean install of the nvidia drivers and I played 2 matches in game without a problem. So I think the issue is good for now if not I might have to come back to this forum. Thank you guys for helpping me I really appreciate it.

ok my game did it again. I get 60 to 62 degrees in game.

Currently for some odd reason my GPU started today to idle at 54 so I turned the fan on to 50% and its now at 35

You mean in the Nvidia Control Panel?
-
So when I first played WWE 2K15 after about 10 minutes my GPU turned off and I lost connection to my monitor. So I restarted my PC and I changed the the power management option in the nvidia control panel from adaptive to prefer maximum power as that is what I did to fix the same issue I was having with the witcher 3. This also fixed the issue for the next 50 minutes of gameplay before I went to bed. Then I wake up the next day and I can't even finish one match in WWE2K15 before the same issue came back. Can someone help me? Also this issue doesn't happen with any other game. For example GTA 5 My Specs: i5 2500k @ 3.30Ghz MSI GTX 970 100 ME MSI GTX 560ti (Dedicated Physx Card) 8GB RAM 750W Ultra X4 PSU

No the card is completely stock. Never changed any settings for the card.

I ran Witcher 3 and was tweaking the settings and then went for a test run to see if the settings were fine. about 45 mins in on closing and opening the game my screen just went black in game and my monitor lost signal to my dvi. then when i checked my gtx 970 was off all of a sudden. So i booted up the computer and came back after 30 minutes and played witcher 3 again. Then after 30 minutes the same thing happened. Does anyone know why? PC Specs i5 2500k @3.3Ghz MSI GTX 970 100 ME MSI GTX 560ti Twin Frozer ll (Dedicated Physx Card) 8GB RAM Ultra X4 750W PSU

Ya i have the latest Nvidia driver. 353.06

So I just upgraded my GPU from a 560ti to a 970 and as soon as i got the new GPU installed I started the game and increased the settings and played for about a minute. Now when I start the game it automatically crashes when it gets to the black screen about what the save icons look like and about the copy right stuff. Am I the only one with this issue. I tried verifying game cache and still no use.
