  1. I've recently been in the market for a 21:9 curved, 1440p IPS monitor and have stumbled upon these two: https://www.amazon.com/LG-Electronics-34-Inch-LED-Lit-34UC97-S/dp/B00OKSEWL6 https://www.amazon.com/LG-Electronics-UltraWide-34UC88-B-LED-lit/dp/B01B9IDL4I/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1467436599&sr=1-1&keywords=LG+Electronics+UltraWide+34UC88-B+34"+Screen+LED-lit+Monitor Apart from price differences as well as style difference, (I don't care about thunderbolt) I'm having a hard time differentiating the two of them. Can anyone advise why I would prefer one over the other apart from price and style?
  2. I have the corsair vengeance 2x8gig 288-pin DDR4 2400mhz, with an overclocked 6700k, on a MSI Z170A PC MATE. Ive set my XMP profile to operate at 2400 mhz. My DRAM frenquency lists 1200 mhz however Ive heard I need to double that number to get the "real" speed, is that true?
  3. I'm planning on using the AMD FX-6300. And no card not going to be gaming, even though it does look like a gaming rig.

  6. I am building a computer for my mother, and she said she wanted a computer just for web browsing and she plays an MMO called Ultima Online, if you know what it is it isnt hard to run to any extent. Anyway she would like it to be $300-$400 so this was my best attempt.

Also just conformation that everything will be compatible would be appreciated. Thanks.
