I haven't tried my 8700k past 5Ghz. It was an easy OC and saw minimum gains going to do 5.1,5.2 from other reviews so I left it.

There is fairly large gains at 5.2 if you can keep it cool enough. Mine is delidded with liquid metal and has no problems. I think I did 5.3 at one point.

ETA: 8,661 on that 5GHz run two pages back, 200MHz boost to 5.2 gets me over 9K for example.

No, I never liked Gears the 3 or 4 times I played it at a friends back in the day.

But it's free to check out and they supposedly changed everything about the game so who knows.

What's wrong with Korean? Isn't LG and Samsung Korean?

Okay you are a little confused.

When someone in the PC Gaming group/industry/etc talks about Korean monitors we are talking about aftermarket A- panel monitors that are sold under some random brand.

All panels are made by LG and Samsung FYI.

I almost only buy Korean monitors. CrossOver is my favorite aftermarket "Korean" brand.

The monitor i'm asking Devious about I actually sold to him. Sold other great Korean monitors to other posters here.

So not talking bad about them at all.

=)

I loved the color depth on that panel. But yeah, never OC'd worth a damn.

You know that was the first 1440 monitor I ever owned back in 2012?. But never used it. Bought others right after.

Gotcha. What are the prices nowadays for something like that? I just saw a Samsung 1440p 144hz 32" for 330

I use a Crossover 32" 4K OC'd to 90. I can hit 100 but get weird lines if so.

They almost all come Freesync now too. Just Google, I haven't kept up. It's always changing, sort of.

Basically decide the spec you want and look on eBay and vet the seller on Reddit/OCN/L1Tech forums.

Edt: Whatever you want, it is out there.

Also DreamSeller is my favorite seller on eBay for Koreans. I've purchased probably 8 1440 and 4K monitors from him since 2012.
