  1. Everyone is so focused on 4k while it isnt even a thing yet, hell 1440 isnt even a thing yet for most people. The 290x and 780ti (single cards) dont even perform good enough (60+fps) to use them for 4k lol.
  2. A common misconception. It actually can use more than 2gb. If you go sli in the future that 4gb will come in handy as well. But in the end tho... depending on your budget i would go with a different card.
  3. Mantle is software made to better utilize the GPU, g-sync is actual hardware inside a monitor working with the GPU. I'm thinking g-sync is the "better" new technology and most usefull. But only once it is available in better monitors, mva/ips/oled/etc.
  4. Yea 16ms on the camera test, 28ms on the leo test. Still not bad, i'll check it out. More recommendations are still welcome.
  5. Yea i know but i'm hoping someone somewhere knows of a miracle product i overlooked. I'm sick of sending back products, costs a lot of time. But you are right however VA panels are, imo, the best at this moment. I know people are fond of IPS but it bleeds like crazy and has this glow which looks the same as bleed to me. I did have a look at the samsung screens but i thought they had high input lag, like 30ms or so?
  6. I am looking for another screen, either a TV or a PC MONITOR. Between 27 and 42 inch. Low input lag. usable with pc. hdmi input. up to 800 euros (not a minimum). However the biggest demand is that it should be (95-100%) FREE of light bleed (backlight bleeding). Any recommendations are appreciated. I tested a lot of different screens myself and they all bleed to some extend, took me many RMA's to find my current 95-99%% light bleed monitors. But i'm hoping there are some good and bigger screens out there i did not consider. (no plasma cause they flicker, and no oled cause its too expensive still)
  7. I will go for a 780ti or 290x whichever is released with a non ref design first...
  8. Better wait. But only if you can wait another month or two. I ******* hate waiting >.> Why didn't they just release 3rd party solutions at launch... sigh. No one, outside watercooling ppl, will buy this crap. (ps: i either want a non ref 780ti or 290x...whichever one releases first, so i'm not being partisan.)
  9. Damnit soon i will be forced to go to AMD once again pffff. If they ever release better cooling models. Tho perhaps i will rather go for a 780ti or 780 sli and wait for the next generation from NVIDIA.
  10. Well the info on "that paticular site" has not been wrong much lately. I'll wait untill next week regardless. But the bus on the 290x might be a lot bigger but it has a much lower mem clock (5ghz) making the difference between the 290x and 780 (6ghz) minimal as seen in benchmarks. So i was thinking the 4gb 770 compensated the same way, guess not then
  11. I won't be going AMD anytime soon. Had too much trouble with stutter. And i am not convinced they completely solved it now either. So what they say is true about a 770 SLI with 4gb (not single 770), they can't utilize the complete 4gb? hmmz... Strange they sell the that way >.>
  12. But will 3gb be enough for some time at higher resolutions? Perhaps the 4gb of the sli 770 would have the edge here? (even if it just has a 256bit bus, but at 7ghz)
  13. I'm deciding what gpu to buy at the moment, using Intel HD for now. Was waiting for the 290x, then Nvidia announcned a new card. *sigh* more waiting >.> A lot of waiting, kinda sucks being without a card for so long. But anyway... i'm not sure about the vram and how it works exactly. For example, if i buy a 770 with 4gb memory (256bit, 7ghz mem clock) vs a 780 with 3gb memory (384bit, 6ghz mem clock). Is the 770 able to use ALL the memory because it has a higher memory clock (similar to the new 780ti)? I keep finding different opinions on this, but i would like to know from someone who actually knows for sure. Because the new 780ti is going to use only 3gb with the memory clock at 7ghz, like the 4gb models of the 770. I'm really deciding between a 770 4gb sli vs a single 780ti or perhaps sli 780. But then i will only have 3gb vram total. (just a heads up, i know sli doesn't double the memory) Any advice would be great!
