  1. That's an awesome build. You can get the 280, it's an awesome performer, but you're saying that energy consumption is an issue so maybe a GTX 760 can give you more power in CUDA applications and games with less energy consumption. Nvidia cards usually needs less power than AMD cards. I would pick the GTX 760 only if you use CUDA applications, that can help you a lot, if not, stick with the 270x or buy a 280. That depends on how much you can to spend
  2. If you can get a 280 get it. But the 760 is also a safe bet, is a good card for less than 250 (you're saying that you have less than 250) Get MSI EVGA or Asus.
  3. I would say the 270, 270x and sometimes the 760 if you find it for cheap For 1080p I think that a 270x is all what you need. But if you want the extra textures, more AA go for a 280.
  4. Isn't the 760 a little bit overkill for that resolution? About the outputs, buy a cheap DVI to VGA adaptor and you're good to go.
  5. The "extra frames" difference is worth despite worst image quality?. There's some TN and TFT monitors for less than this AOC, they're 5ms, so I don't know if that makes any difference or if I better stick with the IPS AOC. So blacks are better in a TN of TFT panel?
  6. Yes, I get less motion blur and things can be more clear, but they're expensive. I would also like a 120hz 1ms monitor but I'm pretty sure that my GTX 760 will hardly achieve 60FPS
  7. Yes Don't worry, I'm stuck between the HAF 912, Corsair 200r, 300r and SPEC-02.HAF 912 and SPEC-02 are the cheapest options, 200r is in the middle and the 300r is the most expensive of the four. Wich one I should buy?
  8. Great, thank you Any suggestions about the case?
  9. So IPS look better overall? I wouldn't bother for the TN panels being "faster", at that price point, all I can get is on the 5ms range. Also, I don't know if my eyes and brain will be able to feel the difference of 3 miliseconds, I don't imagine myself playing battlefield and saying "Yeah, the image quality is all bright, white and crappy, but screw it, I can see my death 3 miliseconds sooner"
  10. Yes, but is more expensive This one is the same as the i2369, just 22", no HDMI, DP and Android stuff (actually I don't need them, but they're nice) this one seems to be the poor man option... A little off topic question: What case I should pick? Corsair SPEC-02 or 300r? The price difference is quite a bit...
  11. O: Awesome, I'm going to buy it without doubts. What difference you found between IPS and TN?
  12. Damn, thanks. I'll see if someone else know the monitor, I don't want to spend money in something that doesn't work well
  13. Hi! I need a new monitor, I currently have a 17" 1440x900 monitor and lot of people told me that I should jump to 1080p. I live in Mexico and I found a cheap 1080p IPS monitor: The AOC I2269vw. It doesn't have HDMI, only DVI and VGA, I don't know if that's bad, and it has 5ms response time. For the price is obviously 60hz. For less money I can buy the BenQ gl2265, cheap ass TN monitor. Also, AA is necessary at 1920x1080? My GTX 760 isn't going to achieve 60 FPS @ Ultra in the games at 1080p, the card can achieve that at 1440x900 but everybody says that is better to run Medium-High at 1080p than Ultra at 900p. Any suggestions about the monitor¿ Thanks
  14. That's right, I just saw the Corsair SPEC-02, it's cheap, but I don't know if I will hate it
  15. The 800 series isn't going to improve raw performance that much. Like the 750 Ti Nvidia is improving power consumption with a better architecture that is more efficient. There's always something better coming, if you keep thinking that, you will wait forever. Buy the best your money can get now and be happy.
  16. The "rated at 30°C" doesn't matter? I've been reading some reviews and some opinions and a lot of people says that isn't worth it I'm very confused. I've got some extra money, I can spend it in a new monitor (Currently a 17"1440x900), or a better PSU like GS600 or V550. I'm very confused, also about the case, the 912 is way cheaper but the 200r and 300r seems pretty good. Pretty damn confused.
  17. Thank guys. I'm definitely going to buy a 1920x1080 monitor. My only struggle is the budget, I already have to spend for the PC, I got some extra money today, like 120 dollars, but here in Mexico everything is way more expensive. I can get a cheap TN BenQ GL2265 monitor but I don't know if is too much crappy. For more money there's the AOC I2269, IPS, 6ms. But no HDMI. Also the Asus VS228h-p, that have HDMI support. Any suggestions? I can go with the cheap BenQ but I don't know if it's too crappy, I used one for a friend rig, and it's very bright and white D:
  18. You're right, I'm going to see how much I can stretch my budget. Thanks.
  19. Yes, that's right. About the case what would you prefer? Corsair 200r or 300r?
  20. Ok, thank you. I hope it works well without burning something
  21. https://www.digitalife.com.mx/categorias?categoria=236 That's the link of the PSU's. On the 500w range, that the store have stock Antec 500w green watts Corsair RM 550 (very expensive btw) Cooler Master V550 (costs the same as the Antec 500w) And that's it. The Corsair GS600 is cheaper than all the PSU's that I listed. But I don't know if it's of good quality, the V550 is a safe bet for me, is more expensive than the CX600M and CX500M, but is 80+ gold, 5 years of warranty and is a good quality PSU. The only bad thing is that it's a little expensive and I would have to get a cheaper B85 mobo (one with only 2 RAM slots) or the Corsair 200r instead the 300r.
  22. Nobody sells seasonic PSU's here There's also the GS600 from Corsair, non-modular, and it's only 7 bucks more than the CX600M. I really don't want to buy a bad PSU, is the most important part of the PC
  23. Yes, it seems good. Are you sure that the CX500 is enough? Even for overclocking the GPU? I don't want to upgrade anything of the PC in 3-4 years, and if the PSU can last me more time that would be great. I've heard some bad things about the CX500, but are you really sure? I don't have any problem buying it, is cheaper but I don't want to risk my entire system D:
