Holy fukk.. I'm not paying for that even if I can afford it. No way I'm spending more than half that amount for a monitor. Just continue 4k 120hz gaming on tv's
I was expecting 1200-1600 because of the size but 3K, nvidia have lost their mind

So now I assume the next 1080 ti or titan will not be able to reach 144hz highest settings without sli

For real.

The next gen Titans won't be able to max out all ultra, 4K, 144fps. Right now 2 1080tis allow for 4K, all ultra (minus AA and extreme shadows), at 60fps, but not higher. The new Titans or Tis will have to have over double the power of the current gen GPUs for 144fps.

If we go by the past, the next gen Titans and tis are gonna only be 30 to 50% better, not the 200% difference 144hz requires. shyt, sli is not functioning on 80% of the new games (luckily Mordor 2 and FC5 have SLI support, but not much else), so one new Titan or ti card isn't going to be nearly enough to push it at ultra, 4K, 144fps. I might even sit out the next gen of cards, unless there is a substantial gain in performance. I'm fine with 60fps, ultra, 4K. If I can't get over 100fps with the new cards, I'll wait for the 1280tis

I put aside $2400 of my tax return for 2 of the next gen Titans today.

Yo, I just bought vorpX for my PC, and I got the Witcher 3 running in 3D VR on my Rift. Holy shyt....

@daze23 I assume this works with the Vive as well. vorpX is well worth the $40. Goddamn

Some of my games have no sound at all and I don't know how to fix it. My speakers are plugged in and work properly as I hear literally everything else( video, most of my other games) but some just produce no audio. My drivers are up to date and I have no clue what to do next

Do you have multiple audio sources (like monitor, headset, speakers, etc.)? If so, it is possible some games default to the other source.

Speakers are the only source and are set to default. I thought about being a headset to see if the problem games would work with them

It could be a dolby problem with the game or an improper speaker config (set at 5.1, when its really 2.1).

I get so tired of these rumors and speculation. Volta been 'right around the corner' forever now

Get this one. Micro Center - Computers and Electronics Get the extra warranty that Micorcenter sells you.

Following up to say good looks bro, I wound up buying this about a week ago..Loving it so far, although I'm thinking for what my intended uses are, I probably could've gotten a model a little cheaper...But I'm satisfied and my shyt look sweet so fukk it!

Thanks again bruh!

Get a 1080p 144hz monitor

 

[Ciggavelli]

Yo, I was at the M$ store yesterday, just browsing, and I saw a “super ultrawide” monitor from Samsung. It was basically 3 1080p monitors pushed together with no bezels. It was only $899 too. I was gonna pick it up and try it at my house, but it used Freesync and not gsync. shyt looked though
