Probably nothing if your just running it stock and limiting the TDP.

But why?

Stupid. 144hz or 1440p, or get both to be a part of the real elite

are you going to go ahead and remove the thermal pad from your gpu or are you gonna wait to see how it performs with your usage first?

I've actually heard of Viewsonic, but I don't have any experience with them.

It's just one of those generic type brands. Very popular in the low to mid-range monitor space.

I'm doing some stock benching and thermal testing now and then will remove it tonight and retest for comparisons if I have time. If not I'll do it tomorrow.
