Are you selecting "On" for the Vsync in the Nvidia Control Panel? If so, try selecting "Adaptive" instead. I find it tends to work better.

New Case. Corsair 760T.

I know my cables are messy. I just wanted to make sure everything was hooked up correctly. GPU Temps are MUCH better in a full tower vs mid as expected.

Yeah, just tidy up those cables a bit and it will look really clean. What tower did you have before?

No problem guys. I watch Tek Syndicate's videos and have some knowledge of how messed up our internet infrastructure is and the greed of the companies that control it. I'm actually fine with our Time Warner Cable internet. I rarely have issues.

U-Verse TV is actually pretty good here when comparing to cable and satellite. I just don't have the time to "search" for all the TV shows I enjoy. I have a 1 year old, so it's just easier to be able to sit down and turn on something and not have it look like poop SD.

@JigglyWiggly_: I currently have cable. We're exploring our TV options and was considering the ATT TV and Internet bundle to save a few bucks, but not at the expense of quality internet. Might just keep the internet and get the U-verse TV. Thanks for your input though.

Anyone have experience with them recently, specifically for gaming and streaming? Most things I've read have been negative, but not very recent.

Thermaltake really has a lot to consider. This one seemed to meet all of your needs though. Just not sure how you will feel about the style.

Those extra textures and the lighting. The game already looks great. How's it going to look when you've got a good PC running it and some high res mods?

Sorry to hear Klunt. That's really disappointing. Glad the sound card is working well though.

You made me chuckle though when you started listing off getting a new cooler and maybe a new case...because you got a new sound card, lol.

@kraken2109: Probably $150 - 200 for headphones/headset

Thanks for the input guys. The Asus Xonar DGX seems very reasonable at $40 on Newegg. Now, what about hearing this new sound? Klunt said the AD700s had descent bass but I'm just not sure. I'm not a bass head, but I want explosions to have some grunt to them. I've also considered some Sennheisers based on good reviews I've read.

HD558 are an option, but I'd recommend the AKG K612 pro over them and the 598.

@kraken2109 so what would you recommend to power the AKG K612s? Would a sound card like the DGX be good enough or is a external amp and DAC worth the extra money up front?
