LHammonds Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 Huh? The Samsung 2343BWX monitors have DVI connectors. See Spec page for details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LHammonds Posted October 17, 2012 Author Share Posted October 17, 2012 FYI - This PC is still going strong and I have not had the need to re-install Windows 7 yet! With Windows XP, it was almost a yearly ritual to re-install just to keep performance optimal. LHammonds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalikka Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 (edited) I hope my i5-3570k@4,5ghz and R7950 wf@1150/1500mhz can hold out at least 3 years too.After ~3 years (or when I cant run games in ultra anymore) Im going to take my brothers R7950 wf and use it for crossfire. And if the CPU power is not enough, I'll just "uncork" the 3570k and remove the useless thermal paste that is inside the CPU and replace it with liquid pro/something similar to raise the clocks even higher.
