    Do I need a better monitor for the Witcher 3?

    I totally agree. A Radeon 5600XT will handle most games very well. And are resonably future proof.

    Have $800, thoughts on best upgrade?

    Yeah, a GTX 660 or a Radeon R9 270 would be a better choise in my opinion. Or the GTX 970 as said. Look at such cards from Asus, MSI or Gigabyte for the best cooling system.

    That's the best strategy I think. I feel sorry for your sake having all these problems. + the dissapointment over a bad product. I really hope this ends up in a good way for you.

    7970 Problems

    Sounds really problematic. :( No chanse of returning the card and get your money back instead? One thing that bothers me with the whole affair is why this guy or whoever it whas selling these cards? Just did run it for 3 months, and then wanted to sell it? Sounds a bit fishy to me at least. And...

    new pc, what can i get with my money

    Hi! When you are looking for a case. Make sure to get at least a roomy midtower. This for the sake of the air flow, and that you will have a lot easier job to get the cables out of the way from the fans air flow path thru the case. And not the least that even the longest video card now and for...

    unsure whats going on

    I agree in full. Running a computer on a low qualty psu are like driving a car with a bad engine. Better to get a quality 650 - 700 W psu than a cheap 1000W....Wich for most setups are overkill anyway. Antec, CoolerMaster and Corsair have nice psu's that comes with a resonable price tag.

    Pixelated Square in Game

    If Furmark can't? No other stress test will likely be able to do it either. It's tuff to nail this thru such a test as you say this happendes at various times. But you might get a result if you run Furmark as soon as this problem appears in a game.

    new ASUS graphics card, now can't change aspect ratio

    I had the same problem when running my new card with a DVI cable. But the other way around. You need to adjust the overscan in the Catalyst Control Centre. This is done under the " My digital flat panel" - " Properties flat panel". As my native laguage are'nt English, I discovered that the...

    Graphic card opinions for extreme video use

    You're welcome. The NVidia Quadros are the best videocards for CAD and similar work. The "normal" videocards are more for gaming, photo / video editing for example.

    How Much Storage Do You Have?

    I prefer the SSD for it's speed and that it's completly silent. I had a Western Digital Raptor 10.000 rpm at 75 gb before that sounded like an old mechanical typewriter. Besides the SSD, I have the WD Blue 1 Tb as you can see in my sig and 2 usb external hdd's at 2 Tb and 500 gb. When the...

    Graphic card opinions for extreme video use

    I belive that a laptop motherboard that can house an AMD FX7600P APU would be a good choise. Othervice build yourself a Pc. This will be more flexible for upgrades and give you a better overall performance. Not the least on the graphics side.
