Brilliant, thanks guys :)

Ahhh, you see I read that as "Maximum Temperature [reached before the system cut out]" Not, as in, the highest the temperature recorded during the test. I was concerned that my new setup had a thermal 'ceiling' of 73C... Perhaps I should contact support, or do we think have I've simply grossly...

Thanks, that's encouraging. I'm wasn't really sure what to expect, it just sounded low.

Hey guys, I just received delivery of my DEFCON 1k - Asus Strix Z270F Gaming - Intel Core i7 7700k @ 4.80GHz Overclocked Kabylake Bundle and noticed on the Quality Control Checklist included in the box, next to "CPU Stress Testing Passed", the "Maximum Temperature" recorded as just 73C. I...

Looking at this and other similar threads that seems to be the consensus, I'll stay put for now. Thanks for the input though.

Yes it is, good shout though as it does have a habit of reverting to defaults!

Sorry, a good question. It was part of an Overclockers bundle, came pre-overclocked at 4.2 I think.

Hello folks I've just upgraded and am currently running 1080Ti SLI with an Acer Predator x34A @ 3440x1440 I'm not at all disappointed with the performance, however as some games are more CPU-dependent than others I'm not always hitting as higher frames as I'd like. Is it worth my upgrading...

I bought one of these and, honestly, the bleed wasn't an issue for me. Just out of interest, I took a photo and the photo looks exactly like the many that have been posted throughout this thread, ie - a LOT worse than it looks IRL.

I'm guessing that adapter essentially throttles the bandwidth of the connection to back to HDMI though? It's taken some digging, but I've managed to find a 5m DisplayPort 1.2 cable that does the requisite 17.28Gbps. I'll let you know how I go.

Ok, so it looks like the monitor doesn't even have a DVI port! I need a 10m DisplayPort 1.2 cable retailing at around the £100 mark. Ouch!

I'm thinking about buying one of these but I have concerns about its suitability. For various reasons, my PC is located 10m away from my desk/screen and I currently have a 10m dual-link DVI-D cable installed between the two. It's heavily cable-tied, run down the back of immovable units, going...

Since posting I started looking at Superwide. I play a wide variety of games and I'm concerned about how many of them are likely to support these... 'odd' resolutions. It's only really the last year or two that 2560x1440 support has become a standard option in games, what's it like for...

Hi guys, currently been running Asus PB278Q on 2 x GTX 780's quite happily for some time now. Starting to get itchy for a monitor upgrade if one is viable. Any suggestions on this, although the IPS 1440p is a great screen, I really like the idea of going 32" but haven't seen an IPS at this...

Great! thanks guys you've just potentially saved me £350+ quid!! So... Asus PB278Q any good?

I've a Corsair TX 650W... following a quick google looks like it should be able to handle it provided I'm not OC'ing. So, SLi is best bang-for-buck for 2560x1440 then?

I'm contemplating upgrading to a 2560x1440 screen (probably the Asus PB278Q) but I really don't want to sacrifice fps, I currently run a single GTX 670 with 2048MB. What's my best option in terms of the necessary GPU upgrade? do I buy another 670 and go SLI, or do I sell my existing card and...

Likewise, keep upping and downing the settings every hour or so hehe!

I'd also like to know; what are people running at as their contrast/brightness settings? can't seem to find the sweet spot at the moment...:)

Ahhh, I see. Had a funny feeling it might be something like that. Thanks. Is anyone else able to confirm please?
