I swore in the ECO mode stuff it still is turning, just only a tiny tiny tiny bit, so it doesnt have to spin up from a dead stop / cold every time you hop into a game then hop out...
Maybe thats just mine with my settings though. *shrug*

It could be settings. It might also be ambient room temperature. Know the default curve on my card is rather gradual, but if my room is warm enough the fans slowly spin while on the desktop.

New question, i was testing out the rig just finished up some custom w10 details and installed driver updates. I installed Crysis and ran the graphics to VeryHigh and x4 Anti Aliasing and it looked sweet. Only when i was in this setting i noticed on my screen (not tearing) a line blur that looked like it ran a scan up my screen, it did this off and on but only on the higher settings.
What the heck was that? My screen is new with 120hz possible, the connection was dvi, (use a hdmi maybe?) Or was this the result of my card telling me i was pushing it to the threshold?

Turn V-Sync on the Nvidia control panel, or off. Although a line blur is kind of not very descriptive.. test it in other games and benchmarks

yeah when someone just wants to get rid of their house as fast as possible when you live somewhere hip the price will rise and rise as long as people are willing to pay for it

I made my friend a fallout 4 computer for recommended gameplay on the cheaps, the game has insane recommended requirements and he still isn't getting an i7, which the game recommended..
Fallout 4
Recommended Windows 7/8/10 (64-bit OS required) Intel Core i7 4790 3.6 GHz/AMD FX-9590 4.7 GHz or equivalent 8 GB RAM 30 GB free HDD space NVIDIA GTX 780 3GB/AMD Radeon R9 290X 4GB or equivalent
http://pcpartpicker.com/p/Jz7TK8
Still cost $1k
I wouldn't want to play it w/o at least an i5-6600 and a gtx 970 ideally an unlocked i5 to OC w/ a nice little closed loop cooler from corsair...
Look at how hilariously bad the top end AMD processor is on the low end of FPS, 16ps.... I'd sooner have the i3 which may run at lower avg fps but at least the low end is 35fps....
Just in case anyone thinks they're getting a steal w/ an 8 core 4.7ghz amd processor, ya ain't. The dual core i3 schools it imho.

Yep it's pretty silly how much Intel CPUs stomp all over AMD's offerings currently.

I try to spread the benchmarks like the fucking gospel my friend So many people think that Intel is a rip off. This needs to be demythologized, but it's almost impossible... People see cores and gigahertz, but do not understand the architecture and don't even look at the gaming benchmarks.

Intel has pretty much always stomped AMD when it comes to gaming. Even waaaaaaay back in the day I had an AMD 233 and its integer performance was nicer then the pentium, but the floating point (FPU) sucked balls which directly affected all the 3d games that were just starting to really come out, like quake.
I really think a lot of it comes down to the fact that AMD always tries to be the cheaper options, more geared for budget and there is just a point where it would require them to significantly raise their price to get their performance more in line with intel.
I think for non-gamers an AMD chip would work fine, for mom and dada, gramps and grandma, etc. But if you need the uber horsepower on a desktop machine, Intel's higher end chips are the way to go.
