144hz at 1080p is hard to push (even for a top tier card) in new AAA games.Its actually harder that 1440p 60hz.OP if you like twitch shooters than get a 1080p 144hz.If not you will be MUCH happier with a 1440p 60hz ips or even a wide screen 21:9 monitor(be warned with a wide screen all your online videos will have black bars...I ended up grabbing a second monitor because it drove me nuts but movies look amazing)

Total:12TB(15 w/ backup drive)

storage is cheap. time is not, I dont want to rerip all my movies in a few years when im rocking a 10tb ssd in my laptop. My bluray rips are between 20 and 30 gb each

I will. It's not bad, a hundred movies, 2-3TBs. I didn't say 1080p looked bad, but the low bitrate to achieve a 2GB file is too damn low man.

One word. Bitrate.

Average movie = 20GB+. Blu-ray master race
