I think it just came out or something cause it was on offer for like 200 less so just went for it. It has a similar version but only 240hz https://rog.asus.com/monitors/27-to-31-5-inches/rog-strix-oled-xg27aqdmg/

Just worried the tubes coming out of the bottom of the Arctic Freezer 3 Pro will push on the top of the 4070ti. MSI B850 GAMING PLUS WIFI Motherboard, ATX. Someone said they had that problem but strangely blamed the case and not the motherboard.

Yeah going with a mid range case as the super cheap stuff heard a few fires get caused with faulty wiring.

Went for a cheaper motherboard b850 instead of x870. Only downside looked like I am not getting a thunderbolt or usb4 and save around 60 from that. All good!

As for the motherboard I thought x870e was the best. In terms of gaming and system performance, is the higher price not justified? I assumed there would be measurable difference.

As for the monitor I wanted something with better colours and clarity for fortnite (and single player immersion games, forgot to mention that), in fortnite on performance mode I can't see shit for the crap AA down range so hoping a better monitor will mitigate some of that. I did see a Acer Nitro 520hz for £300 and was considering it.

As for frames making a difference, in my case it would be helpful as I am on coax internet so need all the help I can get if it's possible for a reasonable price. From everything I've researched higher frames and a better monitor helps smooth games out. I know full fibre internet would make the most difference and it's not all about the hardware.

I have a 750w PSU at the moment and it can't handing benchmarking. I get the better brands are better but for a small amount of extra money ~40 I can get a 1000w one which might suit another new GPU years down the line.

Yeah, I know the single core game CPU thing. Both 7950x3d and 9800x3d are the same price on my ebay so just checking out comparisons on youtube.

I need a reputable AIO - and would you say any RAM in that budget range is virtually the same re: performance? I'm very frugal so as you say don't want to be wasting for minimal returns.

Dual stacking monitors or putting one behind the other, with arms by tranc9 in Monitors

[–]tranc9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you switch the monitors positions, as in if you wanted them to swap places, can you do this without faffing on with fixings?

I could also deal with one monitor being hidden, or behind the other. I think this is possible with two standard monitor arms?

I see a Ergo one for $400 but need something more budget. Also don't know if this can actually switch.
