I can confirm that the monitor will run at 144hz on Nvidia Cards. I have a Gtx 980 ti G1 Gaming, and it Works flawlessly.

I just bought the exact same monitor, even tho i'm having a Gtx 780. I had the same considerations in mind. But in the end i was clear that even tho i'm running a Gtx 780 and a BenQ Xl2420TE, the upgrade is still worth it

Updating your bios should solve the problem.

Thanks for the fast advice mate.. Do you know if the PCI-E Slots will bottleneck newer Cards? Since it only supports 2.0.. Right now i'm considering a Gtx 760 or Gtx 960 and a cheap 128 gb SSD.

Do you think buying an aftermarket CPU Cooler is worth it? Like the EVO 212 and maybe get a pretty good OC on it, it might have a hardtime keeping up on newer applications.. What GPU should i get? Will i stumple on some heavy bottlenecks?

Hello LTT forum! So recently i got this great deal for 30$ Board - Gigabyte GA-58x UD3R CPU - i7 950 3.1Ghz Bloomfield Socket 1366 with stock cooler and never OC'd RAM - 12Gb DDR3 1600 Kinston HyperX PSU - CP 750w (Low budget i guess) GPU - Nvidia Gtx 470 Reference HDD - 1 TB Sata 2 5200 Rpm Case HUGE *** OEM Case.. What should i do with this machine? I thought if i upgraded the GPU and maybe a 120gb SSD it would be a great LAN PC or something.. What kind of options do you Guys think i have? I don't want to spend more than 200$ on it.. Thanks in advance!

According to tftcentral, the monitor will only support 75hz unfortunately.. There are no panels yet that supports that resolution with 144hz.. Here's my source:http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/news_archive/33.htm

Exacly!

I think i forgot to mention, why i want to sell my pc.. i like to build pc's just in general, so basically selling my previous one and buy almost the same parts, beside case and fans and maybe some other parts (Maybe swap out the gtx 980 for Gtx 970 in SLI)..

Hello Fellow techies, So i've always been having almost all my hardware for sale, just incase some people are willing to pay.. Anyways, lets get to the point. I'm selling my gaming rig with the following components: Case+custom sidepanel: Bitfenix Prodigy M Black Fancontroller: Bitfenix Recon Fan controller Fan: 240mm Bitfenix Spectre Pro Green Fan: 80mm Bitfenix Spectre Pro Green Powersupply: Corsair AX 860 (860 watt) Motherboard: Asus Gryphon Z97 Ram: 16gb Kingston Hyberx Beast CL11 2133mhz CPU: Intel i7 4790k CPU Cooler: Corsair H80i GPU: Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 fra Asus SSD: Samsung 840 EVO 500gb OS: Windows 8.1 64bit So, i payed 2100 Euro for everything 6 months ago.. A person would sell me his old rig + give me 1200 Euro His old rig components: case: Aerocool XPredator White Edition Fan: Two Nuctua 80mm Powersupply: Thermaltake 1200 Watt Motherboard: MSI X58 Pro Ram: 24GB 1600Mhz Cpu: i7 975 Extreme 3.3ghz Cpu Cooler: Corsair H100i GPU: 2x Gtx 580 Asus CU2 in SLI SSD: 320GB What would you Guys think of that trade? should i accept the deal and sell his old rig as well? and get the Money from that and combine them with the 1200 Euro? What should my offer be and what do you think his old rig is worth? My goal was to sell my pc and buy something simular or atleast something with the same performance.. Thanks in advance!

The Pentium is indeed a solid CPU, but! When we move closer to games which uses more than 2 cores, Both the i5 and i7 blows it out of the Water. You're completely right, that the PER CORE performance is really equal, and when playing games that doesn't operate with more than 2 cores, you will most likely get the same result as with an i5 or i7 Now.. the Thing is, we're living in 2015 and almost ALL AAA games will use and operate with more than 2 cores, and by then your "beast gpu" will be bottlenecked.. This Means the i5 or i7 is more "future proof" than the Pentium. Sorry for my bad English, I'm from Denmark..

Did you remember to install the SLI Bridge?

This card shines with raw performance, really awesome look!

I got myself a Gtx 980 from ASUS last week, i'm running with a BenQ XL2420TE 144hz, and my idle temps are between 30c and 35c.
