that might have been it then. when moving a fully built PC, lay it down on it's side. with the PC sytadning uright, the pci-e slots will be subjected to massive strain when you hit a bump with the heavy graphics card yanking on the slot

just curious... did you have the PC standing upright in the car ride? or was it laid down on it's side?

ippc nf-f12?

IF its not the ram, try using the on board graphics instead of the 750ti to rule that out as well

double posted when i meant to edit a grammar mistake in my last post... derp

the backblaze thing isnt really a factor in my disklike of seagate. One of my personal friends has had horrible experiences with segate drives failing quickly, the 2 month old computer lab machines having their seagate drives failing all the time at my college, and the fact that most people on LTT go with WD are all reason i shy away from seagate Its not fanboyism at work here. I simply dont want to deal with the hassle of drives failing

Just google "seagate failure rate". Segates fail many times more than WD's, which is why i go with WD exclusively for my HDD needs

take a picture of the setting with your phone

im running out of ideas here... but you could try and see if there are any settings on the monitor itself. if that fails, call asus tech support. Sorry i couldnt have been of much help

hmm... well.. i just took a look in catalyst control center and i found an option to adjust scaling stuff

and DVI at 144hz does black bars?

try DVI at 60hz

\Well... its an improvement. does HRC make the bars dissapear?

I can't say what would be causing it without more info. try running with 1 stick of ram (assuming you have a 2 stick kit)

try an HDMI cable to see if it gets right of the black bars. If it does, get a DP cable
