Looking for a 1440p monitor.

[Adajer]

760 is pretty much on par with the 670 iirc. I ran Farcry on max with shadows on med at 1440p and stayed at or near 60fps wit hthe 670

Turn down shadows like Adajer did, lower the AO setting, or turn off alpha coverage and you should be fine.

Gonna post this here since its a little related. Decided to use my other monitor for dual monitor and noticed FPS on the off monitor (put wow on the off to play league) drops in intervals. FPS was fine in league but thought it was weird that FPS was dropping in wow. This eventually stopped but does anyone know the cause?

Spoiler: show

Sorry to hijack, but I'd rather not make another 1440p thread. I just ordered this monitor. Would someone please teach me how to overclock a monitor properly? And if anyone has any input on the linked monitor, please let me know!

Hopefully its ok to post to another forum but this page / thread with the index is all you need

If you have a NVIDIA GPU its really simple as well just create a customer resolution and you can state your refresh rate. Start at 110 and see if you have blurred lines or any degradation and work from there.

My qnix oc's to 120 np, using gtx970, but what's the point in actualy overclocking it?

I belong to that forum as well. I just do not post much there. I was planning on using my pc with the R9 280 in it and overclocking this piss out of the gpu. But, buying this monitor starts a whole new (good) issue for me! It will be used with my secondary gaming pc which will have the 280, but the cpu is an Intel Pentium G3258. At 1440 I'm worried that cpu will bottleneck. I'll test first and if absolutely need be I will move my main pc with an Intel I5-3570k and GTX 770 to where this monitor will be.

I think its more important for the GPU to have plenty of VRAM. Iv got the GTX770 Gigabye OC 4GB edition. Can crank up the monitor and get the most out of the games. Just test it out. There is a good website for testing Monitor frames / hz etc. Ill try find it for you but its a good measure too.

If you have anything comparable to an i7 920 or better you won't face any bottle neck issues with the 900 series cards or today's games up to and including 3440x1440 resolutions. Even at 4k you should be ok.

It's tempting to sell my gtx 770 2gb on Ebay (around $200 before fees) and snag a R9 290 4gb when they go on sale (usually around $220). I'm putting the cart before the horse, but I can't help it as I'm excited to of snagged that monitor for the price. I really hope it works out!
