    Buying a new monitor


    Hello guys so i have a quick question here.Im planning on buying a new monitor since the one i have is kinda old6 years.So my question is do i need to uninstall the old monitor driver in device manager once the new monitor is connected since i wont be using the old one anymore. Or does that have no point? Note that both monitors old and new are LG models.

    :)

    Buying a new monitor

    Hi guys, how's it going?

    I've been thinking of spending some money on a new display, since I've been using an old 32" FHD LG TV as my monitor for about 2 years now.
    Requirements:
    • At least 27",
    • not more than 300€,
    • IPS,
    • >FHD (optional).
    I've looked at the market a bit and I'm quite intrigued by the new ultra-wides. Are there any known huge flaws with these displays?

    1st candidate: LG 29UM69G (269 €), which is an IPS and also has Freesync!
    2nd candidate: LG 29UM59-P (264 €)

    Do you have any suggestions? I'm sort of leaning towards the 1st one.

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Buying a new monitor

    New monitor suggestions, £200 budget

    So I am getting (hopefully) £200 of amazon vouchers from work for Christmaqs and have decided I want to get a new monitor, my current is a 23" Samsung Syncmaster, I believe it's a TN panel and the res is 2048x1152. It really is starting to get on my nerves as the coloring is not very natural so I am thinking an IPS panel would probably be a lot better quality wise so I am open to some suggestions as I really don't have a clue when it comes to monitors.

    Things to note:

    • I do not want to go smaller than 24"
    • Would prefer 27" if possible for the budget
    • If not then perhaps 24" 120hz
    • I currently run 2048x 1152 though 1920 x 1080 is fine
    • Must come in at or around £200-£250 absolute max
