Can anyone give me some overclocking advice? I'd like to start it on my GPU. I have a GTX580 (KFA2 Anarchy Edition) with a big Arctic Cooling Accelero Xtreme 3 cooler on it. What software can I use? Any general tips? Thanks ^^
MSI Afterburner is your best bet, and use Furmark to test stability. If you want to increase the GPU voltage you can do that in Afterburner, but it can be risky so I'd leave it until you find your feet first.
I raise your Gtx 460SLI and 672 CUDA Cores with GTX 580 SLI, 1024 CUDA Cores sir, and 1Ghz GPU core ;D I appreciated your Ninja skills chum!
The viewing angle does matter though, because you're only ever looking directly at a small bunch of pixels in front of you. For all the others, you're seeing them at an angle. IPS panels look nice and uniform compared to TN, at least IMO.
Awesome rig, awesome!!!! But... we need to meet up and I need to OCD those GPU cables! Anyway back on topic, my 580's with thanks from Speed.
Just so you all know when the new GTX 700 series comes out I'll be making you all very sick with jealousy. I predict 1024 CUDA Cores and at least 4GB of VRAM, double that with a second GTX700 in SLI!
Single GTX 570 stock with reference cooler. Fantastic card and the cooler never makes a peep. Eats up everything i throw at it @ 1080p. May still be tempted at a Kepler something if they are much better.
Indeed and I'm sure TG will be jumping on the bandwagon as well as long as it doesn't flop, I just hope they come out within the next 90 days then I can have a 'free' upgrade
Don't mean to rain on your parade, but have you kept the receipt? You've turned down a couple of cheaper monitors with vastly better image quality, colour reproduction, pixel pitch and stand for size? It's a poor tradeoff IMO...
honestly its a good monitor, IPS is of no interest to me, its size i am after and full HD so this is what I was after.
You'll be happy with the HannsG - I had one for two years and it's the best gaming monitor I've ever owned (value-wise). The U3011 is not a gaming monitor by any stretch. I never once found the dot pitch too big, and I upgraded from a 22" 1680x1050 monitor so I had a basis for comparison. On a different note, as of later this morning I will officially be in this club with my 480 SE. Can't wait.
