Okay so fixed the problem! Took some time and no answers on the first page of Google. So every time I entered safe mode I couldn't get the new resolution to stick when I entered non safe mode windows. Eventually in safe mode I used msconfig and under boot selected the option base video. Turned...

Nope :(

Yea I gotcha, the cable is 3 years old now so pretty sure it's just standard speed. TV does have an HDMI 2 port and I'm using an Asus nvidia 1070, it's plugged into the main HDMI port in the TV also

Yeah its an HDMI 1.4 cable, I understand this is the issue but since I am using the 'driver' that comes with a fresh install of windows, as soon as I go to install the NVIDIA drivers it forces the display into 60hz and I lose the image. I'll be purchasing a new cable but I wanted to see if...

Yes. I am using a Samsung UHD TV

Hey All, So I have just done a fresh windows install and am updating my graphics driver. I use my TV as my monitor and it won't support over 30mhz (well it will but I only have an HDMI 1 cable which won't support it), but when updating the graphics it automatically sets it to 60mhz. Therefore...

I learnt nothing yet... I've just reinstalled Windows since it was a quicker option. Currently attempting to figure out a way to install the graphics driver with out it trying to change the refresh rate when it does

Hey, So I use my 4k TV as my monitor for my computer, just freshly installed windows 10 and wanting to update my graphics driver. Now when I did this the driver decided to set the refresh rate to something my TV wouldn't support. Is there a way to resolve this with out plugging a monitor into...

That looks amazing, though didn't want to spend that much. Inspired to try and recreate this but with out the USB ports. My keyboard has them built in anyway!

Bit of a weird one, but hopefully someone here will have some suggestions. Being the big adult I am now, I have recently bought a house and sacrificed my computer desk in the terms of compromise with the better half. I am currently doing my very adult gaming with a pillow on my lap which...

Hey all, I have a bit of a frakenstein computer at the moment with different bits and pieces I have upgraded as needs be. About to stretch out and go for the CPU/Mobo/RAM upgrade. Current spec: CPU: Intel Core i5-2500K 3.30GHz RAM: Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 Mobo: Asus...

Brilliant thanks for the advice. You didn't miss anything from the previous post I just didn't say I knew that ddr4 would be a much bigger upgrade. Well definitely settled it, will get more Ram and overclock the processor. My cooler is an absolute beast. I had always planned to overclock the...

I know I can only go for DDR3. Was wondering if it was worth the dive into getting a DDR4 Mobo etc or should I just wait till I can afford to go the whole hog and full upgrade :) 16gb DDR3 was the way I was swaying though

Hey, So current specs are as follows: CPU: i5 2500k @3300ghz Mobo: Asus P8Z68-V PRO GEN3 Intel Z68 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard RAM: Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit GPU: ASUS GTX 1070 So to get into it... I essentially want more RAM so...

So recently I was forced to part ways with my trusty computer desk... It was part of a bargaining chip with the wife to allow me to buy a 50 inch 40k TV instead. Im using said TV as my monitor and having to use my keyboard and mouse whilst say on my sofa, which involves awkwardly resting it on...

Stulid - you are a gentleman I appreciate all the help here! Loads to look at now and gives me a great idea of what I need etc. Cheers!

Actually just looking at upgrading to Windows 10 today so hopefully that will make a difference... Having a hard drive clear up today as well as I currently use an old 10,000RPM Sata hard drive for my games, so going to go through all of that and delete anything I don't use. Only really playing...

Monitors will need a huge upgrade... I have the following: http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/monitors/LS24PUHKFV/ZA-specs http://www.cnet.com/products/samsung-syncmaster-2443bw-lcd-monitor-24-series/specs/ I already have a good cooler on it as I did originally over clock it when I got it.. I...

So I am looking at going for a new gaming build at the moment, probably spending about £1500 on it and just wondering what I should be keeping from my old system. I suspect it will just be the hard drives but if there is anything I can salvage from it then it is money saved I guess. The...

Thanks! I'll give it a go.
