DownToFletch Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 What'd you get in specific? 4k monitors are slowly going down in price c: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low C Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 3 23" 1920x1080 Acer monitors. I can run them in 5760x1080 but I run them without surround because i can snap windows to each monitor and use fullscreen windowed easier for games like WoW and D3.

DownToFletch Posted October 2, 2014 Author Share Posted October 2, 2014 I've heard Acer can be touchy with their monitors, you got your monitors with no dead pixels or anything right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low C Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I've had no problems out of them. Only part ive had problems with is the EVGA 560 TI i've had to send it in for RMA twice so far. You could buy the most expensive brand and still have to RMA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'd like to know as well, I've never had any issues with EVGA products and same with my friends, we pretty much even choose that brand because of the reliability. Will probably post my rig sometime this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownToFletch Posted October 6, 2014 Author Share Posted October 6, 2014 EVGA is just so big and all of my friends use at least one of their products, you can't go wrong you know? Also, isn't the 5 series 4 years old? To be honest with the 900 series released if you don't want to fork up the extra money for those, I retired my EVGA GTX 660 SC which is only about 2 years old, give a few months I think. Even though it's 2 years old, I could max Battlefield 3 @ ~60fps, played Battlefield 4 comfortably on high @ ~45-50fps, iirc I could play crysis 3 on high with like ~35fps (my buddy tested that on his Asus 660, no idea what I would have gotten I don't think I even own the game. I'm 90% certain he wasn't oc'd either.) Even though I was already SC'd, I NEVER oc'd to get those numbers. If you're just playing runescape and other low-graphics (intensity) games, I suppose the 660 will be fine. When big maps came into effect on Civilization 5, my GPU was fine (Yes I know civ is more CPU based but I had that maxed out graphically too) So yeah I have my 660 in it's original box, I was gonna try to sell it for $100 USD but I don't know of anyone that would want it.

Low C Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I'll still buy EVGA, my point is any product can be defective. SLI 560ti's still run a lot of games at max settings 60 fps very powerful cards for being so old. No doubt ill upgrade to 980 when my warranty runs out on these cards.

Dude Nvidia covers warranty replacements in certain cases for up to 10 years. EVGA only does 2 years :P What was that about replacing them after the warranty? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low C Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 GPU's are 2 year's and my warranty will be up later this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownToFletch Posted October 9, 2014 Author Share Posted October 9, 2014 This is the EVGA specific warranty stuff. http://www.evga.com/support/warranty/ Notice the cards ending in a certain suffix can be 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low C Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Whats your point? I know what warranty my cards have considering i've RMA'd them through evga twice. When you register a product through EVGA it also tells you when your warranty is up through the RMA page. No reason to even link that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownToFletch Posted October 9, 2014 Author Share Posted October 9, 2014 WIthout going back to the last page I recall something about you saying that GPU's have 2 year warranties. Just depends on which one you buy which is what I'm trying to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low C Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Upgraded the 560ti's to a 970 ACX 2.0, I can run 3 monitors off just the 970 and i run a tv mounted above the monitors off the CPU. I'll post a picture when i get a better phone. I'm impressed with the 970 though i'm running The Witcher 3 at 50-55 FPS and the rest of my games are more than 60 fps easily.

Low C Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Built a new pc.

Think i got bad silicon lottery because i couldn't get 4.5ghz stable under 1.4vcore and didn't want to go any higher. EVGA Gtx 970 SC+ ACX 2.0 Overclocked +100mhz gpu clock ontop of the factory oc.

I don't regret it, played GTAV and Witcher 3 on it off the pc and its amazing. The ROKU is built in and integrated great and i love it. Just 1 click to go to PC or back to wireless streaming. My old PC is now a plex server + Minecraft Server + my sister uses it for photoshop. It has an i5-2400 on a z68 mobo. I may buy a 212 evo for it and overclock the blck to 3.8ghz it ran stable at 3.8 but it ran 90c underload on stock cooler so i think its possible to get some more life out of it.
