So I've been using 1440p monitors for about 6 years and while I love their resolution over 1080p, my first impressions of 16:10 is making me think of going full 16:10. Right now I use a Dell 2516D 1440p and a Dell 2415 1200p monitor. For some reason looking at a 1080p monitor just disgusts me. It seems like the image is out of wack; probably because I've used 1440p for so long. However looking at 1200p the image just feels so much nicer to look at especially for gaming. I really wish they made 1200p 144hz monitors but I know it will probably never happen. I think I'm going to sell my 1440p soon for another 1200p 16:10 monitor.

The Dell monitors are 1440p and 1200p. I could care less about 144hz because I chose to stop playing competitive fps games a while ago.

I'm not sure about the cooler yet, the 303 won't fit the nhd 15. Suggestions? I don't really want something that blocks my ram.

I'd love to keep the Silverstone but it's been buzzing lately

So rather than selling all my parts to build whole new PC from the ground up, I decided to upgrade some parts from my very first PC build in 2014. Current PC : https://pcpartpicker.com/list/KcZFhq Planned PC : https://pcpartpicker.com/list/g3tNhq For the new PC I will be getting fractal design 120mm air flow fans for the rest of the case; the pressure ones are just for the cooler. For those of you interested in my old build log here it is : https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/200382-empirical-by-darkmatter/ Let me know what you guys think!

What thickness out ZMT is that ?

Max wattage is about 800W, fully modular, efficiency greater than gold and less than 170mm in length Powering 1700x + 1080ti water cooled system. Also if anyone knows the difficultly of their wire management on the cables that would be nice for custom cables.

Planning to build a water cooled PC in the Fractal design Define Mini C. I have set in stone that I want a 280mm rad in the front and a 240mm rad in the top. The two 140mm fans in the front will be intakes but I am not sure for the rest. I can either have the two top 120mm fans (radiator) as a intake with a 120mm fan in the back for exhaust Or the top fans (radiator) as a exhaust and the back 120 as a intake (fan only). I think I like the first option more. Tell me what you guys think!

awe shucks you got me

Oh cool. I find that 25in 1440p is much easier to look at than 27in

Do you have the UP2516D? I just got this one about a month ago and its a huge upgrade from my old asus PB278q

IMHO 27in is too big for 1080p. Idk your experience with 27in monitors but they are huge. I had been using dual 27in 1440p monitors for years and I just recently downgraded to a 25 and a 24in from dell. Right now I have a Dell 25in 1440p in landscape and a Dell 24in 1200p in portrait to my side. I was getting sick of turning my head a lot with massive monitors on my desk. The Dell 25in is a amazing panel and the pixel density is better than a regular 1440p 27in.

Possibly the last intel platform enthusiasts will buy. I wanted to move toward your cpu/mobo setup but now I might opt for amd
