    PhantomWizzrobe got a reaction from handymanshandle in $400-600 Monitor   
    I'm looking for a gaming monitor but with decent colors because I occasionally do some video work too.

    I'd actually get an RX 480. it is a better value and can play most games in 1080p with ultra settings. It is around $200 for the cheapest models

    Hey there PhantomWizzrobe,   If it's simple files that you want to save, you can get a regular external drive with a USB cable, format it as exFAT and it can be read and written on by both Mac and PC setups. Like FAT32, exFAT can be used on both system types without the need for reformat or data loss. The advantage of exFAT over FAT32 is the much larger volume size limit (128PB compared to 8TB) and the larger maximum file size (16EB compared to 4GB with FAT32). This should help you with your transfer.   Another option is to transfer the files via a NAS or an online cloud service.    If you are looking for a good, simple and inexpensive external drive, I could suggest checking out WD Elements Portable. It is pre-formatted for PC usage, but you can easily reformat it. Here's a link with more info: http://products.wdc.com/support/kb.ashx?id=0tpaed   Captain_WD.

    WAIT HOLD UP. WE DONT WANT LINUS'S PERSONAL PC. The case has a lot of meaning to him guys. It was a gift from his wife. I believe it was the first gift from her too.
    EDIT: Thanks for all the likes guys! Hopefully Linus or someone from LMG will read this and this will make Linus keep his build. Even if the goal of 100k is made we should convince Linus to do another build maybe, with signatures from the whole LMG family and maybe even his wife. This would let Linus keep the build he has with the special case his wife gave him. Besides, his personal PC would be more special to him than us.
