We all gave decent answers. You were just a bitch about mine and Coyote's.

Monitor question: I received this as a birthday present:
Microcenter link
Running a GTX 970, so it should keep up. What is more important: the gsync and high refresh rate, or a higher res than 1080? I have some time to exchange if this was a mistake.

At 1080p with a 970, you should be okay with gsync with the 144 hz refresh rate.

I don't have one, but in general, even cheap water cooling is highly effective for GPUs because of the larger die size and direct contact with the block, vs. CPUs with smaller dies and an integrated heat spreader in the way.

My LG 4K monitor is already at $560 on eBay in 1 day.
I paid $579 for it.

do yall mind taking a look at this build. Its for a family member who wants to use it for simple office tasks. budget is $500 sans OS and peripherals. Family member may be interested in two monitors, so I might throw two of these in there as well. thanks for your feedback
Looks good. I don't think you need the CPU cooler, but its your preference.

I have an (probably outdated) ASRock 970 Extreme3+ MOBO, and want to upgrade my Graphics card. Looking at this:
MSI GAMING GeForce GTX 1060 3GB GDDR5 DirectX 12 VR Ready (GeForce GTX 1060 GAMING 3G)
I don't plan on getting VR, and I don't have a 4K monitor or a monitor with 144hz... is this overkill? I do stream, so I figured this is a significant upgrade over the 750Ti I am running right now.

Wait that is $299? For 3GB? You can do a LOT better than that for the money that is a ripoff holy.
Go with this
Or this
Or a similar version. You missed the 4GB MSI OC edition for $160 today on Jet. Are you still using an FX8350?

Yea, I'm still using the FX8350. Would like to upgrade that as well at some point, but not sure when that will be.

Anything I should know before installing a second SSD? Got a 850 EVO to go along with my other SSD in my build, any formatting I need to do or just plug and play?

Monitors have evolved immensely since I owned a Desktop PC. Can anyone point me to somewhere i can get some info on all the new technology thats out, and coming out? Obviously I could google and watch youtube videos, just curious if anyone has any info.
I remember when CRT's where king because of the refresh rate. What t he frick is a G sync and why do i need it?I know a lot of it has to do with what resolution, and if you plan on going 4k in the future.
I'm currently on a 144hz@1080p and love it, Don't plan on 4k for awhile, but I know I want to upgrade to 1440 here when the new GPU's drop.

Last of my parts should arrive today. 6600k, amd 480 4gb, 16gb ram, 480gb ssd, 1 tb hd, Viewsonic 144hz freesync monitor, phanteks case.
Now for the part that really worries me: assembly. If all goes well, I'll be trying out Dishonored DE tonight. Never finished it despite really enjoying what little I did play.

Just from my experience but builds are a breeze now compared to a couple of years ago. Cable management is honestly the hardest part.
