Hi All, Currently have an AMD 5800 Graphics Card (bought eighteen months or so ago) and a single Dell U2410 Monitor. I'm thinking of adding a second U2410 and upgrading my graphics card - what is the logical upgrade path now from a 5800, I'm a bit out of touch?! Thanks, Paul.

Well its a Gigabyte P55M-UD2 motherboard with 8Gb RAM....

Hi, Anyone got any recommended settings for a modest stable OC on an i5750 please? Thanks,

Hi, Anyone got any experience of HD video editing using an i5750? I've just built my folks a new rig with one of these and 8GB of RAM but I'm a bit concerned to note that my Dad's preferred software suggests that the min recommended spec for AVCHD editing is a 2.8GHz i7. I'm hoping to OC...

Have this afternoon finally clicked the 'BUY' button on a U2410 from OCUK, lets hope its rev. A.02 and its a good one! Stand by now for a flood of new cheaper better 24 - 27" panels to be announced!!!! Thanks everyone for all your help and advice, especially PCM2 - owe you a beer! :-)

Thanks - I can probably find a use for that RAM in my i7 MB so would I be making things easier for myself if I just bought some more Dual Channel memory? Obviously we're focussing on the memory here - do you think this is the likley cause of my random lock ups?

Ahhh.... its what a certain Custom PC magazine recommended for this mid range PC. Checking my OCUK order I bought:- https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-205-CS Guess this could be it - what should I have bought...??? Cheers,

Thanks - no have not overclocked at all (haven't got it that far!) and have not changed any RAM timings or voltages from the stock default settings - should I? As regards two or three sticks - I have tried just using two (in the same colour coded slots) and it still crashes. I have not tried...

Hi, I hope you can help me. I've built many new PCs over the years and I've never experienced the problems I having with this one! My new PC spec is:- Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD2 Motherboard Intel i5 750 CPU 6GB Corsair XMS3 DDR3 Memory (3 x 2Gb) Antec TP 650W PSU Gelid Tranquillo Cooler...

So then, if you assume that:- a) Both are readily available in stock. b) Cost is not an issue. All things being considered, i.e. performance for some FPS gaming and some semi-pro photographic work etc, would you buy a U2410 or U2711...??? Thanks,

Ahhh but its now out of stock at OCUK...!!!!!

Hmmm, Just seen the review of the U2410 on PCM2's website and this sounds like an awesome bit of kit. I guess the dilema now, is whether it's worth paying almost twice the price for a U2711 with the issues highlighted above, when the U2410 seems to be better in some areas... My head hurts...

Anyone??? Have I goofed buying this MB and processor, I thought it was supposed to be a reasonable OC combination!

Hmmm, yes, it was this one (as recommended by Custom PC):- http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-209-GI&tool=3 Do I need to be worried?

Hi, Just building my Mum a new pc built around an i5 750 on a Gigabyte P55-UM2 motherboard. I want to overclock it a bit, but not too much as she won't be gaming or folding etc, but my Dad will be doing a bit of video encoding. Anyone able to recommend any good settings for this as a...

So, with another couple of weeks gone by - anyone else have any views or do you still think a single U2711 is the way forward...?? I've come to the conclusion that using two monitors only, the central bezel will become annoying in games!

Thanks all - mainly for photo work, general browsing and some sim type gaming (e.g FSX, FPS shooters such as CoD4 etc). I'm not a competitive twitcher. I also fancy being able to use it to watch HD movies on and hook up my PS3 when the fancy takes me. Its a new build PC - i7 920 (Oc'd to...

So, do I buy one U2711, two U2410 or two U2311 monitors...?? Think my head will explode if I don't press 'Buy' on something soon!

I'm in exactly the same dilemma!! I was in a specialist shop today (not the purple shirt one!) and it was suggested that as a viable alternative to either the U2410 or U2711 I consider the BenQ or LG LED screens. I must admit, Win 7 looked nice on the Ben-Q but any good...???!! Where is...

Hmmm - bit worrying he seems to suggest that it was unusable for photographic use with the AG coating in place....
