Re: Touch Taiwan 2018 - Any more news on 240hz 0.5ms?

I wouldn't get too excited about 480hz monitors even by 2020. The 2080ti seems to be completely bottlenecked at 1920x1080 and CPUs are notorious for improving slowly. I have a 9700k overclocked to 5.2ghz with an AVX offset of 2 and in Call of Duty Black Ops 4 at the lowest settings I get spikes over...

Re: Asus PG27U and Acer X27 Impressions (4k/144hz/features)

Back to square one unfortunately. :cry: I'm finding myself unable to aim with this monitor, terrible streaks of missing and I get almost helpless. I'm not the greatest player but once again the 240hz monitor seems to help significantly. I am however starting to gain an appreciation for the picture o...

Re: Asus PG27U and Acer X27 Impressions (4k/144hz/features)

I've been giving this monitor another chance with first person shooters at uncapped fps without gsync after doing better than I usually do in Black Ops 4 with it. It has been a surprisingly positive experience. This time as opposed to playing Widow I've been playing McCree and I don't think there ha...

Re: Intel 9900K

I got a 9700k with an Asus Hero XI motherboard as the thinking is the 9700k should be as good for gaming and it's actually available but it seems questionable. There are already games that use more than 8 cores/threads, and new games will be more likely to do so as well. Temps are another factor but...

Re: Intel 9900K

What are you looking at? I just went over several of the reviews and they dissuaded me from spending $900 to upgrade to a 9900k. The cooling change appears to have been done as a necessity- this CPU appears to run very hot anyway. I need a source for the 9700k doing something impressive, which saves...

Just take it. If it's defective you go again or just return it.

Re: Intel 9900K

So this sort of performance could be explained by the temps, whether independently, in enabling what you do with the CPU, or both. I don't know where to change all those things or what their effects would be. The power thing is an easy change, let's see if that does anything. One thing I've read abo...

Re: Intel 9900K

The moot arguing aside, according to you that video is with a gtx 1070! Somehow your gpu temp is also under 45 degrees celsius, when I'm above 60 with a 1080 Strix and over 50 with a 2080 MSI Trio X. This leads me to believe everything in your computer is cooled to an extreme, a custom loop? My powe...
