Are M2 drives worth it?
M.2 is just the interface. M.2 can still be SATA.
You want an NVMe drive. Yes, M.2 NVMe drives are worth it. They are extremely responsive with far less controller latency over a SATA drive.

I guess I just haven't noticed much of a difference since I haven't been using my desktop for work lately, just gaming.

Curious if you guys can help me. I have a 1080ti that's going in my work desktop but I couldn't resist so I brought it home first. I used DDU to clear my drivers and replaced my 1070 with the ti. I've played R6 Siege and PUBG since then and I'm not getting any performance difference. Am I bottlenecking my R5 1600 at 1080p or did I potentially do something wrong swapping them out? Rest of build is R5 1600

Are you talking about no improvement in FPS?
Maybe basic but is VSYNC turned on?

What are you using to capture FPS?
What was it with the 1070 and what is it with the 1080Ti?

Correct. Vysnc is off in game and in the Nvidia control panel.

I'm using in game overlay for Siege and my monitor overlay for Pubg.
I was averaging 120-140 fps on high with the 1070 on siege and around 80 or 90 in pubg. I'm getting exactly the same with the 1080ti.

Crank up the settings a lot and then compare the two cards at those higher settings. Or turn your settings down to potato level and see if the framerate improves. That will determine whether or not there is a cpu bottleneck. Seems doubtful but that's the way to confirm. CPU gaming performance is usually tested by using medium to low settings so that the GPU is taken out of the equation.

HOLY CRAP! Just got these installed. It's almost hard to get used to. I hear stuff on my right in my right ear and same for the left, it's the closest I have ever heard to actually wearing a headset. These things will shake your walls too.

Those are pretty damn nice

Nice! I was looking at the soundbar from the same company for the home setup. If I ever get to make it back home this year to really use the main rig.
A nice set of monitors make audio so damn clear. Is the sub wireless?

All wired the wire length is good, but has it's limits.
I live in a loft apartment and I think even these could get me kicked out.

Damn that is true. You bought one from me in Shaw's parking lot. Had 3 of them, it is the only and last time I tried Surround gaming. Wasn't too fun back then with all the bugs.
Posted on 12/5/17 at 9:10 am to LSU Coyote
I think I may have bought all three of them
Posted on 12/5/17 at 9:23 am to bluebarracuda
Yeah maybe so. I'm thinking I gave one away to my grandmother but that might have been another monitor.

My buddy was asking me this and I didn't know the answer...
He wants to get a cheap 144hz monitor, this one specifically, but has a gtx 1070. He'll still be able to get 144hz even though he doesn't have an AMD card right?
