    Thank you for the warm welcome! and thanks for the suggestion. I will definitely check that out. That was a very helpful suggestion because i really have a limited amount of knowledge of monitors, and i really only hear about monitors from LTTs. thanks.

    I was thinking about it, but it is a bit pricy. I was hoping to find something less pricy that still is a solid 1440p monitor. and oh i didn't think of a non gsync one. I will check that out.

    I made a post a bit ago about this build here: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/262666-advice-about-a-build-suggested-to-me-by-a-redditor/ Here is my build in its current state: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/dirt/saved/JrCgXL Since then I have been given the evga gtx 980 superclocked acx 2.0. I am posting because i don't know which monitor to buy. I want to run video games at 1440p and 60fps. I am in New York State, and at this moment I have around 700$ that I could spend on a monitor, although i would like to spend less than that. I only need one monitor, and peripherals don't matter that much at this point. Thank you for your time, I really appreciate it.

    pretty much 800$, so I might not get the Novatouch TKL until after I build it or something

    I made a follow-up comment. It's right above yours- but to sum it up really just gaming. some games I like can be a bit demanding such as Far Cry 4. Thanks!

    Lots of tips, all of which are helpful. Seems like the redditor who suggested this to me really knew his stuff. Thank you all, I really appreciate the feedback!

    Thank you for the warm welcome! Also I just read a thread about new posts and realized i left some info out. The build is 800$ (US) and I'm in saratoga springs NY. I like gaming, and I play far cry 4 and Morrowind among others. my favorite game is Dark souls. I only need 1 monitor. I have peripherals but might want to get better ones, and the reason I want to upgrade is because I usually game on my laptop but would like to be able to upgrade with the ever-changing industry.

    The following build was suggested to me when i made a post on /r/buildapc about wanting to make a build but lacking the experience. I mentioned in the post how I am on a budget because I am a high school student. http://pcpartpicker.com/user/dirt/saved/VVrRsY I'm posting because I'm wondering if this build is cost-efficient, or just if anyone has any more suggestions. I have a lot of faith in the guy who suggested it to me; he was extremely helpful and seemed very knowledgeable, however, I figured it would be a good idea to get some more eyes on it only because this is a big thing for me and I don't want some part to be incompatible or missing out on something I could get that would save me money. I'd love to get some tips if anyone has some. Credit to /u/SDXCplastic. He is the one who suggested the build to me, and I believe he created it in PcPartPicker. Please note that the Novatouch TKL is not actually part of the build. I just put it on there to remember it in case I wanted to save for it after completion. Also note that I have already bought the motherboard, case, and GPU. I didn't think of posting this until now (after I bought them). Thanks, -Lansingdw PS. I am new to the forums, I really hope I'm not posting this wrong, sorry if I am.

    I guess my favorite would have to be the kuhler 1250. it seems pretty kuhl.

    I found Linus Tech Tips through reddit, and have watched your videos every day since. They're awesome. I really enjoy the "great things below 100$" videos but i also like all the reviews of computer hardware and also build guides. Great job and keep up the good work!
