Went and gots an EVGA 2080 OC Gaming as an upgrade to my venerable 980 Ti. Already seeing doubled 3DMark graphics scores, before any overclocking. Also I wasn't expecting my CPU scores to go up 14% too? :)

I'm on a 40/2 package with Plusnet. I recently found out my cabinet is Huawei, so I bought an unlocked HG612 3B from eBay. Having plugged that in, I can now see from the line stats that there's a 30% difference between my 'Max' sync rate (36120 Kbps) and my actual sync rate (24997 Kbps)...

Any graphics cards released 2009 and onwards will have good-enough video decoding facilities to be, for all intents and purposes, as good as each other for watching 1080p video; provided the CPU isn't a lemon.

Interesting...but would that also fit into my case? :confused:

My current 4870 1GB is starting to struggle as I recently upgraded my monitor to a 27" 2560x1440 Hazro TFT, and I'm trying to play as many games as I can at native res! :p I've had my current rig for three years now, so I think at the very least a GFX card upgrade is due. (My Q9550 still blazes...

Are you referring to the received and transmitted packet statistics? How long has it been running? It could just be the result of WiFi enabled devices within range simply polling the router for information.

I have the previous model of this monitor, and one thing about it annoys me greatly: As you can see in this photo of ARMA 2, the monitor will display darker colours fine, right up until the point that it reaches close to full black, at which point it suddenly becomes noticeably brighter and...

I'm watching The Dark Knight and the beam of the Bat Signal appears darker than the surrounding night sky! :eek:

Yeah I didn't really explain my issue correctly, but it still sounds the same as yours. Own hosting. This image shows concentric rectangles ranging from RGB level 10,10,10 on the outside to 0,0,0 in the centre. What I'm experiencing is that it becomes progressively darker as one would...

Do you mean darker blacks basically being 'clipped' to full black? I have this issue too. Using an ATI Radeon 4870 1GB plus the DVI-HDMI cable supplied with the monitor.

Loving this baby. :D Has anyone found the best settings for brightness/contrast/colour on the monitor?

I'm going abroad for a few months next week, so I'm looking for a pair of headphones that I can fold down to a compact size suitable for travel. I'd prefer them to not leak too much sound and I'll be mostly using them attached to my laptop. I'm looking to spend at most about £50, but...

What mode is your card set to in the Audio Console? For some reason if I set my X-Fi Xtreme Gamer to Game Mode, it disables the microphone input :confused:; I just leave it on Entertainment mode permanently as a result.

HDMI carries the same signal as DVI, so using one or the other won't make any difference quality-wise.

Well, I'm no expert on PSU voltage ranges but +12v, -12v & -5v look a bit out of range!

When I was doing my GCSEs (Now that I think about it, that was six years ago - christ!) Edexcel considered the term 'CPU' to cover the computer chassis and everything contained within! :rolleyes:

Some crappy ATI Rage PCI card Geforce2 MX Geforce4 Ti4200 Geforce FX 5700 Geforce 6600GT 128MB AGP Geforce4 Ti4200 (6600GT died while playing the F.E.A.R. demo, luckily it was only two months before a planned massive upgrade ;). Got the 6600GT RMA'd, then sold the new one on eBay to pay...

Dell's CEO is due to take questions from investors on Wednesday (March 1st), it'll be shown on a webcast located here (3PM GMT). ...perhaps there is a chance the monitors will be announced then?

Is that an estimate, have Dell not yet made up their minds, or will one model (out of the 2007WFP or 2407WFP) be released on the 4th and the other on the 12th?

One week to go until announcement :p
