Hey there, LTT gang! My team and I are in a situation where we're often loading 300-500 browser tabs at a time. I have a 12900k with 128GB DDR5 and it seems to be just fine, but a colleague has a R9 5900x and his CPU often hits 100% usage when loading a few hundred tabs (sometimes even less than that). Is there a tool that can identify which specific CPU requests cause spikes in CPU load?

I had the U2715H when I had my gaming rig (paired with the Swift) and I absolutely loved it. I think it is a flawless display unless you're trying to game with it. I played FPS, so the 60 was a big problem for me compared to the 144 of the Swift.

So a friend of mine wants to get into PC gaming and wants three displays. I told him it wasn't necessary, but he thinks it's cool. Whatever. He plays racing games once every decade, but hey, it's his money. I'm looking for: Budget of $1,000 - $1,500 Probably 24" due to budget, but 27" ideal Ideally IPS since they'll be angled Bezels: the thinner the better! I told him to just quit being a bitch and get three PG279Qs, but I don't see that happening. Thoughts?

I have the U2715H and absolutely love it. If you're willing to drop $550 on a 60Hz display, that is. 27", IPS, 1440p, 60Hz

This question is a matter of opinion. My opinion = yes.

The guy I sold the display to said he couldn't see a difference before or after. I think that it just takes a certain amount of playing and getting used to 144 to see the difference upon going back to 60. And there is also a big difference depending on the games you play. I think that 60 FPS seems more viable on Xbox than it does on PC. Playing a game like Titanfall where there is always something happening makes 60 FPS feel choppy. I was going to just get the Acer Predator IPS display, but I don't care that much for Acer's support, their obvious issues with that display, and the IPS hype train can't buy me over. And wtf gloss? Fail, Acer... fail.

I bought a Swift about 2-3 months ago and I love it. Super sexy, big, clean... almost perfect. I only play Titanfall and I don't play often, so I decided to sell it locally and just use my 1440p 60Hz Dell display. HOLY SHIT never again. I'm not saying it was unplayable, but there is so much bigger of a difference between 144 FPS and peak 60 FPS that I drove me insane. Thankfully I was able to reach out and get my display back with no hassle. To anyone considering a 144Hz display who is on the fence and money isn't an issue.... get it.

Titanfall. I'm not sure why anyone plays anything else.

Resolution.

I played Quake 1 for so damn long.... such a great, amazingly simplistic game. Still my favorite FPS? Nope. Titanfall.

Don't waste your time. It's fun for a while, but it's still WoW. It's dead.

I really disagree that CoD games take no skill. I have never understood that argument. Any game can be classified as requiring no skill. How much skill is required to play GTA V? None. Mortal Kombat X? None. Titanfall? None. Any game ever created? None. To be GOOD at the game requires skill. I have always felt that people who say CoD takes no skill are the people who don't do well. I was hardcore into CoD for years until Titanfall beta released shortly after the release of CoD Ghost. Haven't look at CoD since, but saying it takes no skill is just ridiculous. Since Titanfall, I do not care for CoD because CoD has gone too far with silly/stupid customization and has way too many weapons that people never use because they're just not as good as others.

My option wasn't listed. Game is good for what it is, but it's GTA and therefore still boring.

It IS slow. Browsing online requires nearly no resources. You could drop to 512MB RAM and still browse fine as long as you are not running background processes. Want to see slow on that system? Start installing things like antivirus which require at least 1GB of RAM to use. Those hogs will drain that thing dry.

I love the look and keys of the K70 Mx Blue way too much to go to the Chroma for the RGB.
