  1. We live in a world where GSYNC technology is supported on Freesync monitors so again, thought it worth an ask just in case.
  2. Thank you for your quick reply. I have actually just checked the support for it on the Gigabyte website which confirms that too. Worth an ask, thanks for your help!
  3. I have a Gigabyte Z370P-D3 and wanted to switch from Intel CPU's to AMD CPU's. Do I need to get a brand new motherboard or will my one support AMD with a bios update?
  4. There is absolutely no reason to get the AOC. I purchased it and had to return it, biggest POS monitor I've ever owned, the worst amount of anti glare so you can barely read text.
  5. So I bought the AOC and had to return it. The anti glare is absolutely the worst thing I've seen on any monitor I've ever owned. You can barely read text and on white backgrounds it looks like someone has covered the screen with rice paper. Coincidentally, I returned it and bought the exact Dell you mentioned but the 27 inch one. Honestly, the Dell is absolutely incredible and is no contest at all.
  6. Can we bump this? I have tried all suggestions from users above and nvidia themselves.
  7. I hate to say it, but I've also tried this too! I've tried to limit 2 or 3 fps below the refresh rate and also 10/15 fps below. Like I say the only other way around it I've found is to enable V SYNC which I really don't want to do.
  8. Tried to limit the FPS and this still doesn't work. I have a 144hz monitor and I've tried to limit way below the 144fps limit and I still get rips. It seems the only way I can get it to be smooth is to put VSYNC on.
  9. Hi all, I have an issue where on some games I am exceeding the refresh rate of my monitor which causes tearing. I have tried 2 different GSYNC monitors, 2 different GPU's, using DDU to remove drivers and reinstall fresh ones. The only way to get rid of this problem is to turn VSYNC on which defeats the object completely of using GSYNC. Any help appreciated as I've even been on a live chat with NVIDIA themselves who can't seem to solve this issue.
  10. I’m using an i5 and it does really only seem to be Twitch that totally kills it. I’ve tried what you suggested and hopefully it works itself out!
  11. I just like to have the ESL CS GO pro league on in the background so I can glance over at it whilst I'm playing. I was using Chrome at the time and it felt like my PC was actually dying. I've never heard of Seamonkey, is it safe and recommended?
  12. Hi all, I've been experiencing some massive game performance drops when opening a browser and watching youtube or twitch on my second monitor at the same time. Does anyone have any suggestions to stop this from happening?
  13. I use TN. Acer Predator XB241H, pretty cheap, great response time and out of any TN panel I've used it's certainly my favourite.
  14. Did this have anything to do with MsMpEng.exe hogging 100% of the disk?
