The rationale behind running triples is to get an added field of view(FOV),i.e, an eyefinity supported game would give you a 180 degree view. So the next time you hear something from the behind or the side when you are playing a game, you see it immediately. This is impossible in a single screen...
I have got to be one of the stupidest people out there because even with what I thought was lots of research done by me I still have overlooked one of the basic features of the R9 series. They do not need a compulsory displayport for eyefinity. Grrrrrr!!!
Well so now firing up the system...
I bought the 1100 VA in the end. I found out that the reason xbitlabs's test on seasonic PSU crashed was because they used a 300W UPS.
With that, all hardware parts arrived had arrived by tuesday but complications still exist. I finished putting everything together but in the end realised that...
My only concern is this
While I am in a multiplayer session and power goes, the one minute or so which it takes for the generator to kick in I do not want my internet or computer,whatever be the case to turn off. There are reviews which says the seasonic 620 cant witstand even 400w with a...
So I have been searching around for information on buying pure sinewave UPS. I must say I am shocked at the lack of info on this from even the most credible sites. Even if they do have info, its so less. I mean even in western countries with uninterrupted power they are also quite likely to face...
Change of plans :)
Decided to stick with 280x and use the rest for buying a good UPS. I reminded myself that if need be I can always crossfire later and anyways I am not going to be playing too many graphic intensive games. So that's about it.
All the items have arrived. Just have to wait for...
Thanks for the replies
I still haven't placed the order..my friend is a bit scared that he will get caught in customs..after reading threads here I found out that if it is made out to be used, i.e, taken out box etc it will not be a problem..i have conveyed the same to him but don't know...

@ashish65 and @bavusani
Thanks a lot for your replies. I have a few queries:
1. The motherboards that have been suggested, would there be any marked reduction in performance as compared to the Asrock extreme4 ? Also are they overclock stable?
2.Given the reviews that the R9 290 is...
3570k is certainly out of the question then.
I just need a optical drive. As far as fans are concerned how many should be a safe bet?
And how do the other specs look?
1. What is the purpose of the computer? What all applications and games are you going to run? (Stupid answers like 'gaming' or 'office work' will not work. Be exact. Which games? Which applications? Avoid the word 'et cetera.')
Ans:The setup would be for sim racing.
2. What is your overall...
This is what I have in mind as of now
Motherboard- AS Rock Z87 Extreme 4
CPU- Intel i5 4670k or 3570k
Graphics card - Radeon R9 290/ R9 280x

SSD-Samsung 128 GB Evo
Monitors- 3* Dell S2240L
Cabinet-Corsair Carbide 400R (or similar in the same...
Hello everyone
I am in the market for a rig and have a couple of questions on the GPU.
1. Will there be a revision in prices in a few days/weeks taking into consideration the cards launched recently?
2. Which of these will have the best performance to cost ratio- GTX 780, R9 290 and R9...
