Need Help! Fixing my Gaming Comp

GPU : R9 295X2 8gb                          Drivers ; 14.501.1003-141120a-177998C (up to date)

Processor : I7-4790K

Hard Drive : Intel 730 Series 480gb SSD and Intel 180GB 530 Series M.2 Form Factor SATA 6.0 gbs Solid State Drive (I boot from this drive)

Motherboard : Z97 MPower Max AC (MS-7888)

monitors : 3 ASUS VN248's 

power supply : Antec 1000w platinum 

 

 

Problems :

 

2) When I am playing games on-line or off-line my graphics shutter. Like when you unplug your laptop from the power supply.

3) I can not play a movie and play a movie without the movie lagging. All offline... 

4) My boot time after the windows logo is around 3-5 mins 

 

1) My far most left monitor does not extend to fit the full screen. I have contacted to my laptop and it fits the screen in 1920x1080. But when contacted to my desktop it has a black outline about a inch thick all the way around. Even when set to my main desktop and only monitor contacted. (FIXED) by LTT's Resident Hermit

latest drivers?

what chords are running to your R9 200? from each monitor?

is your boot drive HDD or SSD?

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.

Open up catalyst control center and look for 'Overscan Settings' usually under 'Image Scaling'. set it to 0%...

 

as for the lagging, i've got nothing...

 

What player are you using?

1. like digital hermit said.. Image scaling probably

2. first try to play only with 1 monitor, If the problem persist then it's not the vram problem.. maybe its overheating or something else.. check you gpu load and temp when you play

3. http://mpc-hc.org/ try this with http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=146228 ask later If you need help with instaling

4. If your windows is booting that long.. probably a format wont be a bad idea.. or maybe first check your drive If there is a problem with it http://www.hdsentinel.com/ download the trial.. its enough to try it...

yes for drivers

I use, Cable Matters Gold Plated Mini DisplayPort (Thunderbolt™ Port Compatible) to HDMI Cable in Black 6 Feet, for my left and right monitor and DVI to HDMI for my main. 

I boot from my Intel 180GB 530 Series M.2 Form Factor SATA 6.0 gbs Solid State Drive
