    KieranThePCGuy got a reaction from Nikeshp79 in Has anyone has hands on with the MX239H from Asus?   
    Hi all,
    Recently an offer came up on Amazon for the MX239H and I'm just wondering if anybody in here has got one or had experience with one? It's only £130 and I have a £20 gift certificate to use making it £110 for AH-IPS. Just wondering about backlight bleed and ghosting mainly.
    Would be upgrading from a VH242H. Use it for both my PC and PS4 using my old monitor for a dual set-up.
    Thanks,
    Kieran

    KieranThePCGuy got a reaction from One Who Craves Souls in MSI Z97 MPOWER MAX Motherboard Revealed

    Here is a reveal of the MSI Z97 MPOWER MAX motherboard. I personally think that it looks great, especially the "M" on the heatsink for the chipset. It has its traditonal black/yellow theme to match its "Lightning" GPU's. It's watercooling ready in regards to the MOSFET and the SFC's, allowing you to add these to your watercooling loop. Looks like a lot of room for expansion too, including a connection for the M.2 standard of SSD's; however no connection for SATA Express.
     
    Would add more but currently tired so will add more if I need too. Just wanted to post this will the fellow LTT community! What do you guys think of the board? Yay or Nay?

    This is great news! Will be upgrading my computer around the time for "Devil's Canyon" is released anyway. I read about "Broadwell" being compatible with Z97 anyway, so IF IF (Key words), there is a good jump in performance between this and Broadwell, then I will upgrade happily. Anyway, thanks for sharing!

    This is really great news, and its not a repost goml @KakaoDj .
     
    So this wasnt expected, im surprised by the specs, the architecture is crazy, they barely use any power.
     
    When i saw the amount of cuda cores, memory and clocks i lost it. 
     
    But they are here, brace yourselves. 
     
    Put on some dramatic music. 
     
    Give it up for the
     
    GT 705
     
    GT 710
     
    and lastly
     
    the 
    GT 720
     
    Boosting the uncanny arcs of Fermi and Kelper
     
    Relying on the joys of rebadging.
     
    This is a great moment indeed.
     
    This day should become a international holiday(even though its easter holiday already for some people)
     
    Well then what the **** are we waiting for better dive in.
     
    First up the gt 705
     

     
    This sexy thing is a rebadge of the gt 610 which was a rebadge of gt 520. spicy. 
     
    Let me throw some numbers at you
    48 CUDA CORES 64 BIT MEMORY BUS a jesus tier of only 29watts under full load An awesome process size of 40nm If i was you id wait for the classified or lightning versions of this card, you could maybe push it up by 1000mhz.
     
    Next up the...
     
    GT 710
     

     
    This lady killer isnt a rebadge of the of Gt 620, whats this madness, its a rebadge of the gt 630, actually no its not, this is a cut down gt 630, madness is it, whatever.
     
    Lets get down to the stats
    Uses the genetically superior pci-e gen 2.0 lane. supports DX 11 has 512mb of memory, wait a sec thats less then the 705, i guess the AMD marketers went to nvidia for a day. Thats all i can say about that card, I recommed you wait for a sapphire version, even though this is nvidia im sure a 8gb vram version will be arriving soon after launch.
     
    LASTLY
     
    the new god('s servant),
     
    the new flagship(mascot),
     
    Here it is the GT 720
     

     
    This you might notice is the same as the above card but its superior.
     
    Its not a half rebrand, ITS A FULL REBRAND.
     
    This card has a full 1gb of vram. If you convert that to bytes its 1.0737 X 10^9 which is a big number, if you tried to count to that number it would take... A LONG TIME.
     
    Unlike the ferocity of the above cards, this one is on a whole new level, those cards have a straightly 1 smx unit whereas this dragonslayer has 2 smx units. THATS 200% THE PERFORMANCE, i think.
     
    It also has the DNA of the gtx titan, the 680, 770, titan black, titan brown, every voodoo card and that crazy tall guy from fractal.
     
    Well then its been great but thats everything ive got today lads, follow EVGA's step up plans because im sure you titan wielders will be gunning for one of these beauties soon.
