xsimplyjosh reacted to emosun in 1050ti or alternative gpu ?
probably should stick with the 1050 is you only have a 400w psu.
everyone will say 400w is plenty for a 1060 but they are usually the ones that also say you can doubleshot nitrous into stock honda civic engines.

xsimplyjosh got a reaction from General_Pox in AOC AGON AG271QG vs ViewSonic XG2703-GS
You should be able to return under the circumstance that it's a "MANUFACTURING DEFECT", but the thing is that; is it so detrimental to your user experience is another keypoint.... i know most would return dead pixels since it can get distracting on all viewing angles [light or dark, its there]
That being said I have the PG279Q, uses same panel as the other two in comparison they have almost all same specs [IPS, 165Hz, G-SYNC, 1440P Widescreen]... so I will try and speak. Just pick based on asthetics if i were you.
I know for one I have a slight backlight bleed on the right top and right bottom corners but I refused to rma because the overall image quality outpaces the slight defect... IE pros outweighed cons. The BLB is an IPS thing in general, but hardly noticable unless you stare at black screens 99% of the time.

xsimplyjosh reacted to r3loAded in My 1080GTX doesnt run more than 60Hz
I'm using DP cable with my PG279Q 144Hz and works perfectly.
Try and use a different DP on your graphics card maybe? And use a DP to DP cable directly.

Yeah it's alright, keep in mind Iiyama TN panels have had quite a few dead pixels on them lately.

Might as well go ryzen since you'd have to get everything

@Ryan_Vickers
the real difference is in power saving, which is more important for a laptop
screams about gaming laptops!

Yay, Oled on iphone! Still no headphone jack tho so my next phone will probably be android.

But don't they already have a flexible panel on the iPhone 6?

xsimplyjosh reacted to LAwLz in iPhone 8 costs higher due to Samsung cotrolling OLED, no touch ID due to 3D Touch
Oh boy... Fanboys already finding excuses for a bunch of things and the phone isn't even out.
Here is a crazy idea. Maybe OLED screens are expensive because they are hard to make? I mean, the reason for lack of competition is not because only Samsung is trying to produce OLED screens. They are the only ones managing to make good ones in fairly large quantities. If they were easy to make then I am sure LG, JPI and other panel makers would be all over it already.

xsimplyjosh got a reaction from greensauce in Zotac 1070 Amp vs Galax 1070 Ex
I would say the zotac is better given pricepoint is concern

xsimplyjosh got a reaction from Shiv78 in Should I get a gtx 1070 now
I would steer clear of 1070s personally. After the mining hikes here especially the 1080 becomes the better value proposition. Power consumption and things aside it shud get u ultra 1440p at a steady 60 if not even better.

xsimplyjosh got a reaction from Princess Luna in Gtx 1060 for 1080p
i would not go with i5 imo, if you really need intel, go for at least an i7... with ryzen in the cpu game, the i3 n i5 series look abit dated now in contrast afaik.
only 7700/7700k has the edge so far as of today for intel's current offering.
but a 1060 should do 1080p fine

xsimplyjosh reacted to Mooshi in RX Vega 64 or GTX 1080
1080. AMD cards aren't really that fantastic unless you're a miner.

xsimplyjosh got a reaction from Damascus in Is a 430w PSU enough for my GTX 1080?
Yes, that one will work also although I like having a little bit of headroom imo. Since operating around the 50-60% mark is most ideal. take 10aud off... is still quite good proposition for value.

xsimplyjosh reacted to TheRandomness in Coffee Lake i7-8700k z170/z270 Compatibility
They don't do that anymore. It goes process-arch-optimise now.
Considering its release date as well as the complete lack of information surrounding Coffee Lake, no one knows anything other than it'll be on 1151.

xsimplyjosh reacted to TVwazhere in 140mm or 120mm fan for rear
I always stick the biggest thing I can into the slot for maximum performance...
Sexual innuendos aside, i dont think the price difference is worth it. a 120mm and 140mm wont perform that much different from eachother, so I'd go with the 120

xsimplyjosh reacted to IKnight in I want to overlocking my HD5450
I had a 5770. Back in the day, that was a really capable card. Nowadays, not that much.. over locking won't really help, tops a few FPS.
-
xsimplyjosh reacted to hammer3339 in Is the 1080 a good value?
The 1080 is a great card, the 6600k would be fine, if you haven't already, I would OC it just to get your moneys worth out of a K sku chip and the single threaded perf is a boon to the 1080.
If you were keen a 7700k or waiting for an 8700k would be a fine option for an upgrade.

xsimplyjosh reacted to Jurrunio in 1060 6gb for 1440p?
I assume it's 1440p 144Hz?
I'd say get a 1080/1080ti first, so you can enjoy maxing out all the settings and still get good fps.
