  1. I was away for a while but now I've gotten around to doing something. I took out the GPU and the problem doesn't seem to be there anymore. Thoughs? EDIT: Apparently what was causing this issue was EVGA Percision X. When it was off, I stopped getting the glitchy GUI at times. I ran an update on it (Percision X) and now it seems that the problem is fixed.
  2. Yes, I did a completely clean installation of the GPU drivers. I'll take it out and see what happens, then.
  3. It didn't find anything, the problem is still there.
  4. I never physically took out the GPU. I only inactivated the driver and checked again. Should I take it out completely? Running the scan now. EDIT: Scan came up with nothing.
  5. I tried turning off aero before, it didn't help. And yes, the problem has just recently appeared. EDIT: Using integrated graphics doesn't help.
  6. System specs: CPU: Intel Core i7 4770K @ 4GHz RAM: 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 780 3GB Classified Hello, I have a problem with the GUI in some applications. I'm currently experiencing it in: Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express (Almost everywhere) Sony Vegas Pro 12 (Render As - menu) I've just recently noticed this problem, I've run a system restore and I've reinstalled my Graphics Card drivers. The GUI still works, but it is really hard to use it normally. The problem does not show at first, but when attempting to interact with the objects that are affected, it starts showing. I don't know what I can do to fix it so, any help will be much appriciated! Screencaps of the problem in Sony Vegas: Thanks in advance! //Max Game
  7. Can't say these are my favourites, because the content given is all great. But I found these videos especially helpful for me.
  8. Beautiful, makes me want to sleeve my own cables. Keep up the great work.
  9. That's not the point of the video but I can explain it a little myself. Imagine a box which's sides are all 60 pixels long on the left side of your screen, this box's is moving to the right side of the screen at a rate of 60 pixels per second. And since the monitor in this example is a 60Hz monitor running at 60 FPS, the box is moving one pixel each frame. Scaling this down to 30 FPS makes the box move at 2 pixels per second and at 15 FPS it will be moving at 4 pixels per second. (This obviously scales linearly in any direction) Now let's ramp this up using a HUGE monitor with the same pixel ratio (Pixels per cm/inch) disregarding the limits of the hardware. If the box is moving at 3600 pixels per second and the monitor is still at 60 FPS, the box will be moving at 60 pixels per frame. If we double this (7200 pixels per second) it will be moving at 120 pixels per frame. Now we really see when a high framerate makes a difference, when it is moving this fast, there is a clear space between the box's original position and it's new one (60 pixels wide to be exact) This is noticable! This point is very important when explaining this, since it is fluidity that we want in our games. At higher framerates this issue becomes smaller: At 120FPS, there is no longer a space between these two positions, the box moves its own length per frame (60 pixels per frame). And at 7200 fps, the box moves as smooth as possible relative to the monitors's framerate, that being 1 pixel per frame. ATTENTION: A monitor at 7200 FPS is RIDICULOUS! This 'experiment' only exists to prove the point that we can most definately see the difference af different framerates, BUT ONLY WHEN THE OBJECT IN QUESTION IS MOVING VERY FAST ACROSS THE MONITOR! I do hope this is clear enough, because I don't know why I took the time to write all of this. And as I said, this only exists to prove the point that 60fps is not the limit that we can see. Goodnight!
  10. Yeah it was a pain, but I'm not unhappy just because of that.
  11. Maybe a "little". From the start, I was looking after high quality components with good value and found this case and power supply. And from then I suppose I started to like them a little too much. But I'm not dissapointed with what I've got from them...yet...
  12. I actually took those cages out because I wanted better airflow, the only real problem I have with the case is that there is no holes underneath the MOBO for cable routing. Too bad you didn't like it, I think this is an amazing chassi.
  13. That front 200mm is a 'CM Megaflow 200 Blue Led' and yes, it was purchased separately, the stock 200mm fan is placed on the top instead.
  14. [uPDATE] So after a looong while, I've finally got a real CPU cooler. It took a while for me to actually take the pictures, because I was lazy, but here it is. I've also made some slight overclocking to start with and I might go up a little more. So, this post is going to be this way for some time, until I decide to go even further with it. Thanks for checking my build out and please do give me some feedback and/or tips on what I can do later on.
  15. I actually have got a 212 EVO (With a Corsair AF120 + the stock fan in push/pull) and overclocked my CPU to 4GHz, but I've been busy with other things so I haven't had time to take new pictures and edit the post. I do have time today though so I'll probably update it today. Nice build btw, but the pictures are poorly illuminated. If you have time, try to take some better ones.
  16. 1. The build quality is great, and even though some parts are made out of plastic, they are of good quality and don't really look look like plastic 2. The window is quite rigid, the entire windowed panel has a decent flex to it though. 3. I changed my front 200mm fan so I have no input here. (The exhaust of the stock 200mm fan is pretty unnoticable, don't know if it's due to the air being warmer or if it moves air really poorly) 4. No, but I would suggest you change them, if you have the money. 5. The HDD mounting cages did make quite a horrible noise when my HDD was running in it, but by adding some vibration reducing "rings" it was eliminated. Exept that, no. 6. I haven't had my computer running long enough to test that yet, but they are easily accessable so they can be cleaned quickly. 7. Noctua fans, but if you're like me and want aesthetic fans without going to the hassle of painting them, try some good Corsair or Cooler Master fans. It's a great case, it has many fan mounts for air cooling and is easy to work with. (Cable management can be a little hassle sometimes) I definitely recommend this chassi, and since you're not going to watercool it (It's a little limiting in that cathegory), it's gonna be a breeze to work with. (Pun intended)
  17. Hey Guys, first post here. This is my second computer, and my first custom built one. Let's get the Specs out of the way and continue later shall we? Chassi: Cooler Master CM 690 III w/ Sidepanel PSU: Cooler Master V850 - 850W (Fully Modular) Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z87X-D3H CPU: Intel Core i7 4770K (4GHz) RAM: 8GB Corsair Vengance Pro - 1600MHz GPU: EVGA GTX 780 Classified w/ ACX Cooling HDD: WD Desktop Black 1TB ODD: ASUS BC-12DHT I do personally think that these parts are a great choise, As I will use this machine for tasks that are both CPU and GPU intensive. Such as Gaming with high settings, 3D movie rendering and video editing. Here's some pictures of it: View of it from the outside. View of the internals, with all removable panels gone. The Power Supply and the GTX 780 Classy, the cables are routed as best as I could. (It is quite limited what you can do there) View of the CPU and RAM. (No stock cooler anymore, yay) Messy cable management. Turned on and shining bright, giving a nice view of the internals. http://i325.photobucket.com/albums/k394/MaxGame97/DSCN2400_zps16be093b.jpg (Behind) http://i325.photobucket.com/albums/k394/MaxGame97/DSCN2402_zps6df46995.jpg (Another view of the CPU cooler) http://i325.photobucket.com/albums/k394/MaxGame97/DSCN2401_zps5969284a.jpg (Top 200mm fan) http://i325.photobucket.com/albums/k394/MaxGame97/DSCN2395_zps733557d3.jpg (Front 200mm fan and optical drive) http://i325.photobucket.com/albums/k394/MaxGame97/DSCN2292_zpsa8f6a6e0.jpg (Context to the first 13 comments) Some more images if you're interested. This build is in progress so I will update when something interesting happens. So what do you guys think? Tips on what to do next?
