I only play games casually, so i'm not looking to get the upper hand over my enemies with this monitor. Its primary use will be photo editing. Budget: £650 / $850 / 750 euros (Willing to buy used) Absolute Requirements: 1440p in either 16:9 or 16:10 aspect ratio (not 4k) 60Hz (no higher) 100% (or 99%) Adobe RGB and sRGB IPS or VA Manufacturer colour calibrated dE no more than 2 Display brightness more than 250 nits Bonuses: Reasonably low input latency for gaming Pixel response times, the stand, anything else, doesn't matter. I know i'm probably having to rely on someone in the same situation as me for a good recommendation.

I have a feeling this is a power problem. When i'm playing games my entire computer locks up, usually for about 3-5 seconds, then unfreezes like nothing happened. is my computer hitting the limit of my power supply? System temps are normal. Key Specs: GTX 1070 (+225MHz Core, +350Mhz Memory) i5 7600k @5Ghz 1.28V SSD + HDD 450W Corsair SFX PSU Thanks

But at 1440p? Even at 1080p, this cpu should bottle neck a 1070...just saying its quite strange, and maybe people who are thinking about there "dream SC PC" should think twice about their CPU.

Hi, i need a GTX 1080 or 1080ti which including a water block is no wider than 150mm (5.9 Inches). Anyone know of any? I'm talking about this length btw... My theory is that a longer card might be shorter in width... Thanks

Wait till new cards come out > buy GTX 1070 at a lower price!

Is a 144Hz monitor better than 75Hz without even getting 144FPS?
Toby Tanfield replied to Hip's topic in Displays
Although it is correct, that the monitor will only use 1 frame rendered by the game 144 times per second at its fastest (144Hz), the time the monitor has to wait for the rendered frame can make a large difference in input latency because the rendered frame isn't always made just before the monitor is ready to refresh, hence the monitor has to wait, which creates latency. i.e If your getting 60fps, on a 60Hz monitor, you will feel much higher latency compared to having > 300fps on a 60Hz monitor. (5 times more frames to chose from, thus more likely to be rendered close to the displayed frame) Or >60fps on a 120Hz monitor (Increases the likely hood of a frame being rendered in time for it to be displayed). Both do the same thing, but since monitors only really go up to 144Hz without breaking the bank, your better off getting a better GPU, displaying a lot more frames, and decreasing the frame latency more. I guess its all about frame latency to cost ratio for best value, providing you have more fps than the refresh rate of the monitor. Or just get a monitor with G-Sync which makes sure the monitor's refresh rate is adapting as fast as possible to the fps, although even that doesn't always work perfectly (when fps is below the refresh rate), since it can never be right on the money, since fps is constantly changing usually. -
Hi, has anyone used this gpu water block before? >> http://www.hwconfig.com/waterblock-finder The "Alphacool NexXxoS GPX - Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 M04" It's used for the Gigabyte GTX 1070 MINI OC 8Gb. And i think also the Zotac 1070 mini? If so was it worth it, how many radiators did you use, and how much of a decrease in temps? Thanks

I built my PC a few months ago. I've had no problems with it at all. All of a sudden every time I boot I get a BSOD with the error code Kernal_Security_Check_Failure. I've looked around the internet and I've seen that some people have this problem with new ram. What I've found out is that my computer boots fine, and works fine with 1 stick of (4Gb HyperX DDR4 2133MHz) RAM, but whenever i have two sticks of this ram in any configuration i get the same BSOD. I've also had the odd "memory_Management" BSOD. So I seem to know the issue, any one have any ideas what i could do other than a RMA for the RAM? Like I said its only a few months old. (This has also been posted in the Software > Windows sub-forum)
