So only when I get a new monitor that can handle resolutions over 1920x1080 will the option be available to run at those higher resolutions?

I just recently saw some videos on youtube and pics over the internet of people gaming at 2560x1600 resolutions and the graphics looked like nothing I have ever seen before, it was amazing. I run gtx 470 in sli and looked up the specs on my card and it says max resolution is 2560x1600. Is there any way I can run games at that resolution or anything a bit higher than 1920x1080?

 

My monitor is 1920x1080, so does that mean I will have to buy a new monitor? Tried to google aound for info but couldn't find answers to my question, or maybe I wasn't asking the right questions. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for all the input. I game a fair amount and only play hardcore games like Crysis, Witcher, Hitman etc. as opposed to indie games which just now thinking about it I have never played an indie game, wow. Aside from that revelation, I guess I'll stick with 470s for now, I wish I knew how to overclock it but don't want to ruin the card. I think I might go for the GTX 680 probably next year as my next upgrade, hopefully the price comes down a bit too.

I have been running the GTX 470 sli for almost  3 years and it has been pretty decent though a bit warm and a little noisy when gaming. I was wondering if it is time to retire these bad boys and get an upgrade for the modern gaming scene. If so what are my options and should I go sli again or just stick to one card and pay a bit more? I always had nvidia have no clue about amd but I would be open to it.

This all started trying to stream netflix on my opera browser. It wouldn't let me watch it so I googled searched to find an answer and on some forums they say to mask it as firefox when trying to watch netflix and it still didn't work. I downloaded Chrome, Internet Exlorer and Firefoz and tried to watch netflix on one of those instead and now Firefox and IE won't even open, I can't get the browser to start/open. Chrome opens and then it take ages to load a website then hit me wit the browser stopped responding.

I have done multiple full system scans for anti-vitus from Kaspersky, Microsfot Essentials, and avast security and all I found was to ad bots that I deleted and the problem still persists. Anyone have any idea what to do?

Ok, thanks got it now. Does running 2 graphics cars (SLI) raise cpu processor temps?

Hey guys, just set up my first sli of GTX 470, got the sli bridge connected and set up the sli profile in the nvidia control panel. Only question i have now is I use EVGA Precision to see the temp and control fan speed of my original graphics card and for some reason it is not showing my second card. Is there anyway I can see the temp of both cards?

I really enjoyed the Legacy of the force series and Jacen Solo and his fall to the Dark Side. Hated the ending but the story as a whole was pretty good. Granted I didn't read any other Star Wars books other than the Darth Bane series and LOTF series so I didn't really know much of Jacen and Jaina before this series but the story of a fallen Jedi always intrigues me and the conflict of emotions that Jacen goes through was very complex and makes you sympathize and even see things from his viewpoint.

I was just wondering if there are any other Star Wars books that involve the slow corruption of a jedi towards the dark side? Looking for recommendations from fellow Star Wars fans from the site. Other than anakin and vader story line?

I got a set of armor for Vette in a mission but it won't let me equip it on her. How do I make equipment on my companions?
