Dude, tell me a monitor that doesn't lol.

Also, the weird part is that i had this issue and i swapped DVI ports and it didn't help. This leads me to believe i need to go to Frys and buy a DVI cable. OR I COULD GO TO BESTBUY AND BUY A SUPER UBER ULTRA AWESOME GOLD PLATED MONSTER DVI CABLE THAT WILL MAKE MY PICTURE LOOK BETTER!

Its the bane of the industry. Monitors would last so much longer if they had better power inverters.

Default LMFAO Dead Videocard

Remember my monitor issues?

Turns out i did some videocard stress tests and the vram went to shit.

1000's of failures in memtest on the GPU Ram test in OCCT.

Bye bye GTX 260.

BFBC2 + Dual 24" Monitors = Dead Videocard.
