Actually, they were being nice and trying to help you avoid any potential aggro from the mods.

This forum is run by OcUK, so it's understandable we can't mention such things.

help for a newb, is it worth me buying an MSI GTX 980 Ti if I don't overclock or use water cooling?

I want to upgrade my GTA 980, Not sure if the model makes any difference for us mortals

NATO · 9 Jun 2015 at 15:30

I've noticed a problem with my 980 Ti SLI setup I was curious if anyone else had experienced also, it seems to be related to having a G-Sync monitor with a secondary monitor attached.

My setup is:
Acer XB280HK 4k G-Sync (Primary), Dell 1440p U2713HM (Secondary)
Intel 4770k, 16GB RAM, Samsung 850 SSD, GTX 980 SLI

Basically what seems to happen is when the secondary display is enabled, when I'm playing Battlefield 4 I get random occurrances of stuttering where the framerate drops from its usual 60fps (G-Sync) to about 45 or so then after 10-15 seconds bounces back to 60fps. Without G-Sync or V-Sync enabled the game runs about 120fps so it's not a raw framerate issue.

When I disable the second display the game runs smooth as butter. I've also tried connecting the secondary display by DisplayPort and DVI, same issue.

I feel this is a driver issue most likely but I wanted to check in case anyone else is scratching their head.

Why not? Especially given you aren't interested in over clocking yourself, these range topping "hothatch" cards do it for you already.

From the benches I've seen the performance jump is pretty good. If you do, let us know how good it is

JediFragger · 9 Jun 2015 at 15:55

Does anyone know if Gigabyte let you re-apply the paste? I know they let you WC etc..

Just hoping to drop the temp a slight bit if I use some quality stuff

Oh jeez, i kept getting Script errors when trying to run those.

I think I'll wait for the proper driver release

Unfortunately that hotfix only addresses G-Sync issues with windowed mode but doesn't address the problem I'm having. I tried Battlefield 4 with both fullscreen and windowed mode but the only thing that makes a difference (with 353.06 and 353.12+hotfix) is disabling the second monitor during gaming

Still no dispatch email. If this order falls through it will be third time
