Yep, that's similar to what I have.
i5 8400
Gigabyte B360 (I wanted 2 case fan headers, otherwise would've just gotten an H310)
Vengeance 2x8 2666
EVGA 1070
Still kills it at 1080/60. I occasionally have to play at High instead of Ultra.
Although If I was doing it now I'd get a Ryzen 2600X or wait for next month's Ryzen 3600.

Not the installation.
Just sometimes if not most of the time they add noise with little thermal benefit. They are only really handy in builds where you are restricted by space.

I'm finally jumping back up to 1440p. Cant wait for that 144hz 1440p gsync action 
Posted on 6/14/19 at 3:01 pm to bluebarracuda
I've been thinking the same. 2160p for 4yrs but the only game I play (City of Heroes) runs like shtt in 4K. It runs in an old engine from 2004. So might buy 2 really insane 1440p.
4K gaming is not for every genre. It's a resolution for games like Witcher3 and God of War but nearly everything else I rather high refresh.

This monitor I just bought is pretty nasty. What's the best way to clean a display? Microfiber cloth and water?

Spray bottle of 90% rubbing alcohol.

That's not going to be too abrasive?
Posted on 6/16/19 at 4:30 pm to bluebarracuda
I mean, you aren't spraying rubber gaskets.
Alcohol is never abrasive though, there is no aggragate. Alcohol deteriorates rubbers and plastics yes but you are fine to use every so often. I use it as an electronic cleaner for everything. MOBOs to desktops.

I understand your concern. Just don't spray it every 12hrs. Think you are safe bro.
This isn't a rupture disc on a reactor in some chemical plant.

I know displays are sensitive to Goo gone and stuff like that.
I don't know how this dude got this screen so fricking dirty

Yep and it dries quickly so it doesn't ruin electronics.

I ended up using some water since I didn't have any isopropyl alcohol
Man I forgot how good 1440p was. Looks like I have my main monitor for the foreseeable future

Just got a 1080ti for a really good price.
Only problem it has a waterbuck waterblock on it and I can't find any founders edition coolers on eBay

Don't those blower coolers suck?
Posted on 6/21/19 at 7:00 pm to Korin
They don't suck but better options.
But he needs a cooler. I have 2 which never got used since I always use blocks.
