I used to be really deep in the whole 'build a PC myself' hobby. But I lost interest considering there aren't any PC games that appeal to me.

If I understand down sampling correctly its the same amount of pixels being pushed through though, just resized to 1080P. I could be wrong though, I can't say I ever bootlegged 1440p,

 

[Fatboi1]

Have you tried displayport or dual-link dvi? HDMI really isn't rated to push out that amount of pixels and its usually recommend to use a displayport or dual link dvi cable for 1440P. On my PB278Q which is a 1440P moniter there's a noticeable difference when you try hdmi vs displayport.

I don't think my TV has a displayport to my knowledge... I gotta see about dual-link dvi though. I remember i fixed this issue with my older gtx 550 ti through HDMI and I fixed it.

Brehs when are SSD prices coming down? I was just browsing newegg and that Samsung 840 Pro Series 256gb is looking funny at me

its been steadily coming down almost everyday, it just depends on which models. the 256 pro was on sale recently for below 200, should have copped it then.

welcome to the 1200p club breh, i decided to make the minuscule jump from 2x 23" dell ultrahsarp ips to a dual 24" 1920x1200 version no regrets

next up is dual dell 28" 4k monitors, we skipping 2560x1440 outchea

i thought about getting dualies of my asus monitor but rather upgrade my main screen throughout the years.




i actually like my 1600x900 dell 20" on my left side. dat sentimental value.

I doubt it does. I could be wrong about your issue and how downsampling works though. I just know for 1440p monitors you need to use displayport or dual link dvi's, a lot of monitors at the resolution don't even come with HDMI.

they're determined to make a symmetrical controller

i use to own a switch 810. they make great designs for their cases, but i wasn't fond of the amount of plastic they use.

That's why I never jumped on one of their phantom cases. I usually hate things that come with a crazy amount of plastic.

The H2 is supposed to be rock solid and silent tho, so for $17 I said fukk it and bought it
