AMD developer Nicholas Kazlauskas has uploaded a series of patches, that when eventually added to the Linux kernel, will enable 'FreeSync' within Linux. Adaptive sync is the Displayport spec and variable refresh rate is the same but pertains to the HDMI spec that allows for graphics adapters...
Nvidia has released a firmware update tool to enable the latest DisplayPort 1.3 / 1.4 features. Nvidia states:
Without the update, systems that are connected to a DisplayPort 1.3 / 1.4 monitor could experience blank screens on boot until the OS loads, or could experience a hang on boot.

I just ordered myself Oculus Rift + Touch Bundle and suddenly noticed that I have only one HDMI port in my graphics card and that is reserved for my Samsung TV that I use as a monitor.
So question is, what is the cheapest option to convert one of my DP ports into HDMI? I know there are some...
I have a relatively new 15" MacBook Pro with four Thunderbolt 3 ports. I am looking to grab a 34" display, and I noticed that they have different types of ports depending on the brand/model. What is the ideal port for my laptop? I can't seem to find any displays that have a Thunderbolt 3 ports...
I have three 3007WFP's hooked up to a XFX R9 290. Motherboard is a P9x79 WS if that makes any difference. Two of the 3007WFPS are on Dual Link DVI cables directly to the card, the third has to use the Dell Active DP to Dual Link DVI adapter. OS is Win 10 x64
Now as some background, I had all...
Hi All,
The sale on Rift has got me thinking about snagging one but I have a few questions.
1. Each card only has 1 x HDMI output but am I right in saying that only the primary card's outputs will work?
2. My main monitor is a 4k TV which only has HDMI inputs.
3. How do I go about connecting...
I have had this issue since I purchased this card back in August. Basically my main monitor which is plugged into the displayport 3 always works, but my secondary monitor which is plugged into displayport 2 gets no signal on a cold boot. When i restart my computer, both monitors work...
After using my 1080 for two weeks (Gigabyte G1 Gaming), yesterday after a bootup I noticed that the card only sends out signal on one of the display ports (it has 3 DP, 1 HDMI). No matter how many displays are plugged in, signal is only sent to one port, o matter how the displays are plugged in...
So, I already know for a fact I love glossy over matte displays. Can you guys recommend a good one that won't break my wallet (500 usd is the limit tho I would love if it's cheaper.) Min resolution is Full HD but i don't think that'll be aproblem.
I've been wanting to upgrade to a new monitor for a few months now. I'm pretty much ready to jump on the LG 29UM58 ultrawide as the price is right, I won't be able to use the higher 29um68's freesync cos I use Nvidia cards and the 34" versions at 1080p seem like a bad, blurry choice.
That...
edit - It just dawned on me the new monitors would support a displayport input so disregard the futureproof portion
I'm long overdue for a gpu upgrade. I am currently running two HD6950s with a triple (60hz/1080p) monitor setup (two LCDs using regular DVI cables, the third is using an active...
