    Eh, they arent that bad. Nothing really is, at the end of the day all they are doing is sticking a cooler on a card. Wouldn't get one myself (unless it was super cheap) but there are people who swear by Zotac and PowerColour.

    Well, you have my attention, that could be really cool :p

    Using xenserver. trying to use all my intel cpu computers that support vt-x but running into some problems with compatibility :( i had a lenovo w510 with an i7 720qm and a core 2 duo grouped, now trying to add my Pentium G3260T to the cluster as well. after that, ill may have to buy some motherboards, as i dont think any of my prebuilts motherboards support virtualization. My sff hp didnt, so i doubt my dells will either. i cant use any of my xeons either, as they dont support vt-x(2 quadcores and 2 dual cores w/ hyperthreading) :(

    Back to a triple monitor setup. I'd have 4 if I had enough analog outputs to drive them.

    EDIT: Just grabbed fourth. I don't have the desk space for it either...

    I keep having my NIDIVA GTX 960 being disabled by my computer due to code 43. I have to go into device manage almost every time after I turn on my PC to uninstall it and then check for hardware changes.

    What brand is your GTX 960? There's been a scam lately of fake GPU's being sold under the brands of Vamery, EZGPU and NVID. Common problem with these cards is error 43 in device manager. They're basically a GeForce 9600 with modified firmware on a custom PCB IIRC. If you have a known brand such as ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI, Zotac, etc. I'd suggest uninstalling the driver from control panel then reinstalling the latest driver from Nvidias website.

    They all are. That's part of the model name. We're looking for the brand (MSI, EVGA, ect.).

    Did Nvidia not manufacture their own card as well?

    How do I find a manufacture name since the card was already installed when I got my computer?

    Try running this and read what it says for "Subvendor".

    While they did, he's just pulled the GeForce experience version number which always quotes NVidia as NVidia are of course the publisher

    It clearly says NVIDIA in the Subvendor field. My GTX 970 shows MSI there.
