    New monitor is a bit dark in the corner

    I should mention, I have two 27 inch PLS panels; This Viewsonic VP2770, and a QNIX 2710. My QNIX had the exact same problem in the exact same areas.

    New monitor is a bit dark in the corner

    I just purchased a new Viewsonic VP2770 monitor recently, and noticed that the bottom right corner of the panel is a bit darker than the rest of the screen. A picture: (Sorry about the image size, I can't get spoiler tags to work here for whatever reason) Is there anything wrong with the...

    Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD3H [LGA 1150] Motherboard

    Board previously had an issue with the rear audio port, but has since been fully repaired and verified to be working correctly by Gigabyte. Selling because I bought another motherboard in the interim (it took three weeks for the RMA), and therefore no longer need this board. Asking $95, retails...

    What type of monitor do you use? (120hz TN vs IPS)

    So, do you game on an IPS screen then?

    What type of monitor do you use? (120hz TN vs IPS)

    Well, the reason I want two is because I was assuming that one is terrible at gaming, while the other is terrible at... everything else, due to light bleed and color reproduction. Multitasking would be a nice bonus. I sort of assumed it would be essential to have two due to their different purposes.

    What type of monitor do you use? (120hz TN vs IPS)

    Is it a good idea to get two separate monitors: one for browsing and general tasks, and one for gaming?

    What type of monitor do you use? (120hz TN vs IPS)

    What type of monitor do you use, CF? I like to play games like Starcraft II that benefit from having zero ghosting, but at the same time, I prefer gorgeous colors for everything else. I can't stand backlight bleed. I had a look at this at some point...

    Increase in graphics card prices?

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202008 Note the price of this (now discontinued, but nonetheless) expensive card. I purchased mine for $370 some time ago. I know I got it on sale, but the sale wasn't that gracious. Has there been some sort of rise in the price of...

    Coil whine?

    So, I have coil whine on my Radeon HD 7970. I seem to have fixed all the other issues with my build, but the coil whine in particular is extremely annoying. Is there any way that I can get rid of it?

    Something is wrong, and I don't know what.

    There arn't any other power supplies available for me to test. I can probably do the ram bit, I'm trying to create a bootable USB thumbstick for it right now.

    Something is wrong, and I don't know what.

    Check my signature for my current build. My graphics drivers are crashing, and my card is emitting coil whine even when there are no games or graphically intensive applications running. I've tested my 3.3v, 5v, and 12v rails on my PSU, and all three are outputting the correct voltage. My...

    Random coil whine, even when idle

    I haven't installed that fan yet. (Manual said it was optional) It definitely wouldn't be the cooler head though, right? (as in the quote below)

    Random coil whine, even when idle

    The area around the PCI slots was hit by the head of my modular cooling unit (It swung down, I had it resting atop the case and forgot about it). Could that have done it? This is an armored/protected board, and you can't even see any evidence of the hit on the protective shell/etc itself. The...

    Random coil whine, even when idle

    I've already RMA'd 3-4 parts now, all from Newegg. Seriously considering not doing business with them anymore. Is there a very cheap/free method of shipping? RMAing all these parts is starting to get expensive. Is there a possibility this issue is being caused by a faulty motherboard? I never...

    Random coil whine, even when idle

    Card is also now crashing/recovering during gameplay. Whine on idle(no gameplay) still hasn't gone away.

    Random coil whine, even when idle

    I swapped PCI slots and updated the BIOS and it seems to have gone away. Could the motherboard be causing it? EDIT: Nevermind. Its still there. I've had the card since June. It JUST started doing this whining today, though.

    Random coil whine, even when idle

    I'm also trying to use integrated graphics to disable the card entirely and check that way, but my Asus Sabertooth z87 board isn't letting me do it. I swap, the screen stays black. No signal. I havn't had this problem until after I got my new motherboard. EDIT: Unplugged fans. Noise is still...
