Hi guys, just broke my gamecom 780s and now I want to buy headphones and a seperate mic. I have around £80 to spend and was wondering if anybody has any recommendations.

I own some V-Modas.  I love these things

I decided to ignore it :P

I've already looked at audio technica ATH M50X and sennheiser 449 headphones.

I've already looked at blue yeti microphone and the zalman clip on mic.

So ye, if nobody is interested I can sell it elsewhere. Just thought I'd post here first so people on the forum get first chance.

Also by the way it was used for about 4-6 months medium use. I'll sell it for less than £120 than Teitoku said. Just make an offer.

Edit: I never had any heating issues with it, running on basic system air cooling i was getting about 45-60 when it  was completely maxed out on games. 25-30 on idle ofc.

6. This is an obvious one but do not advertise anything unless given permission by RoflWaffle.


Anyway, the R9 270x is a fucking piece of dogshit. Had mine for less than 9 months and it's already fucking up. The screen flickers like mad (very very distracting, sometimes to the point of unplayability) if I am playing a game that requires even only a small amount of the power that the 270x can give. Not only that but on some games you get purple dots flashing on the screen (BFBC2). This is a common symptom with the R9 200 series GPUs. In fact if you look the symptoms up on google or youtube, they are the first GPUs listed.

It also gets EXTREMELY hot. I know GPUs do tend to get a bit toasty, but this needs is in serious need of a water cooler, which it doesn't have.

I got mine for £170. Not. Fucking. Worth. It!

I will be sending mine back for a full refund and I will be getting a GPU that isn't shit.

You got a defective GPU. I used that GPU for several months and havn't had one problem that you have described.

Hi guys, upgraded my graphics card to an GTX 770 a while back and was wondering if anybody would like to buy my old card a R9 270. It's still in good condition and I still have all the drivers for it. Just offer a price for it and we can come to an agreement. I live in the U.K so it would be easier if you live in the same country :).

Benchmarks so you get an idea of it's capability: http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/graphics/2013/11/13/amd-radeon-r9-270-review/1

The one in the review is the powercolor one, mine is the XFX variant. Not like it matters or anything.

Good selection, if you plan to run a couple of 1440p monitors or a 4k monitor way off in the future, I suggest just tossing another twinfrozr in (they will get cheaper) and just SLI them rather than buying another graphics card a few years down the line.

Hope you enjoy the smooooooth FPS boost that you get from the 770, my twin 660's have done me good for roughly 2 years now and still hitting a few hundred fps is pretty much any game thrown at it.

I threw the 770 at Metro last light, crysis etc.
Been getting fantastic framerate and quality, had a few problems on metro last light where it tanks a little due to the SSAA but that doesn't surprise me.

SSAA is like the most intensive AA method though and drains performance because it renders the entire game at like 2-4x the resolution and downsamples it

Yep.

Just tested it on farcry 3 and other games and been getting 60 fps on almost max settings.

The twin frozr is an overall better card, it has slightly higher core and boost clock than the Evga 770 SC ( as I suspected, most normal evga cards are clocked less than other standard cards )

I suggest future proofing yourself with the twinfrozr, this gives you the ability to run 1440p monitors and even a couple of 1080p monitors without problem. For that price range, the frozr is the best choice you can make and not taking the better 4GB card is just insanity considering its only roughly £30 more.

Bought the 4GB MSI for a few reasons:

1. I do plan on running a second monitor in future.
2. The newest games coming out are starting to need more than 2GB of VRAM.
3. I want to give my GPU some headroom.

I have decided to upgrade my graphics card in my computer from an R9 270X to a GTX 770 for my birthday. But I don't know if to get 2GB of VRAM or 4GB of VRAM. If I decide on 2GB I can afford the 2GB EVGA SC. But, if I decided on 4GB I can't afford the 4GB EVGA SC as it's beyond my budget so I would probably get the 4GB MSI Twin frozr.

If you could offer your opinions and suggestions it would be appreciated :)

(By the way, my budget is around 280 GBP so if you can find a 4GB EVGA SC for that price then please tell me.)

Didn't they say they weren't going to add easy precision? I can't remember why however.

You can calm your titties now, i've spoken to gaben and he told me he will sort it and he did. #bros :)

I'm only seeing 20% you say this is sorted?

It's £20 on G2A.com and people are selling the NVIDIA promo codes for it for £15.
