It's just that... benchmarks...

My shite struggles with benchmarks, it's business as usual with normal 1440P gameplay...

It means nothing in most real world scenarios outside of ubisoft games and some RTS games.


I'm ok with it, it's adult legos for me.

I feel ya, homes.

It's fun when you strive for that.

I only go for real world scenarios now.

It would be nice to clobber a 3dmark benchie, but I no longer give any fricks. It's just too expensive to keep up.

A 7700k @5ghz has very little performance outside of benchies in real performance than my 4770k @ 4.2.

Actual games that is.

Not a bad price actually if AIB or water block included.

Really good price if blocks included.

Still wouldn't give more than 400 for a 1080 w/o a warranty or water block included. That's just me.

It's used...

Collecting dust isn't so much a bad thing. My current card could go belly up at any time.

Any thoughts on this monitor?

LINK



1440p, Freesync Range of 30 Hz - 144 Hz.

$399.99 on Newegg Flash Deal.

Anyone have experience with Nixeus monitors? I'm intrigued because it is a small USA-based company. Read some good things about the equivalent 1080p 144 Hz with Freesync monitor they released a few years ago.

IPS, 144Hz, Freesync with a great range, seems solid.

They should. I never heard of different brands causing problems.

You couldn't SLI certain 970s and 980s with each other. I think it was mostly with EVGA cards though

First I've heard of that.

They should be fine if they're a dual slot instead of triple.

Who knows tho.

That ping!!!!


I love Amazon, the monitor I ordered less than 24 hours later is $110 cheaper and they are requesting the price match from the seller, if they won't do it Amazon said I can file a claim with them to get the difference. On the other side the cars are $20 more each, I didn't dispute that.
