Want to upgrade, but not sure if I "should"

Thanks for the info on the cards, I am planning on waiting for Black Friday/Cyber Monday anyway so maybe there will be some good deals on a R9 Fury or 980... but if there isnt I might bite on a well priced 390x anyway.... As for the monitors I mentioned any input on those? I have had a...

2nd Display adds 10C to idle GPU Temps?

Reallly... How hard is that to arrange? my MB has Integrated intel 4000 graphics I think... may have to look into that. It still allows for "extended" desktop I assume?

2nd Display adds 10C to idle GPU Temps?

Ahh okay thanks for the replies... It just seemed off to me, I don't really know why adding an extra display would jack up the temp so much. Espec when idle since we aren't doing much.

2nd Display adds 10C to idle GPU Temps?

Is this common? System specs should be in my signature. Right now with 2 displays on (24" Main and 18" Secondary) my Idle GPU temp is 51C If I disable that 2nd monitor the Idle GPU temp drops to 42C. Haven't yet tested it while gaming with the 2nd monitor off, when I was playing Bioshock...

What is your Mount Rushmore of PC games?

I loved that freaking game, and played WAY WAY WAY to much... Camping houses that were about to decay was some of the most epic all nighters I can remember. Would have 3-4 friends all with 2-3 characters logged out in the area if we knew a specific time for the collapse we'd all log on 5 mins...

today I switched from Nook to a Kindle

I still have and use my 2nd gen 3G Kindle from like 2009 almost every day. I feel like its time for an upgrade, but it still works and does what its supposed to do (display text for me to read...) so I haven't justified buying a new one. When I do upgrade I'll definetly go with another Kindle...

I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy 3 running the stop Samsung/Verizon stuff not rooted or rom'd... I work in a basement where I have spotty signal... goes from absolutely nothing to 1-2 bars of 3g, never 4g and never a full set of bars. It easily drains 10% battery per hour just sitting on my desk...
