So I´m planning on buying this monitor from eBay, seller and manufacturer says is VESA 100*100 compatible, but on Amazon and other forums I have seen that it needs some sort of modding/tweaking to accomplish that Does anybody have experience with this monitor that can confirm/deny the ability to mount it with an aftermarket stand or wall mount it?

Nope

So I´m looking to improve my audio with a pair of bookshelf speakers(Passive or Active), got 530 usd for a pair and like 100usd for and DAC/AMP So far I got these options KRK 6 G3 JBL 305 M-Audio BX5 Paradigm Shift A2 With a Steinberg UR12 powering my mic and sending signal to my X2´s If I go passive Fluance SX6 ELAC Uni-fi B5 MartinLogan Motion 15 And a SMSL M3 amp also powering my headphones I´m in Mexico so my options are pretty limited, any help will be appreciated Thanks

Think I didnt explain myself, I´m gonna buy all together, so I just put the Ti in PCP to factor the price, I dont intend to buy it As for theme I´m going with the clasic Red/Black Gonna read some reviews about that PSU, thanks for the rec As your comment I will go with 4TB

So here the partlist, I´m only using PCPartpicker for reference I´m gonna try explain why I choose every part, any feedback or doubt will be greatly aprecciated http://pcpartpicker.com/p/nDjxZL i5 6600k My FX 6300 is reaching 100% while playing BF4, really want to jump into SkyKek and DDR4, AMD is good while in a budget, but isnt cutting for me anymore CM Hyper EVO 212 Had the 212 plus on my previous build, good price/performance/noise GA-Z170X-Gaming 5 Was between this and the Maximus Hero, after seeing the price of the Hero my choice was sealed Hyper X Fury 16GB It just werks , also I love the heatsink Samsung 950 Gonna be used for my OS, main programs, and my favorite games Why not a normal SSD? Really want to save those seconds in booting up Seagate 3TB I´m a hoarder of series, music and other media, one drive for mass storage another one for back up GTX 980 TI, really a placeholder for a GTX 1080 Want the top of the line for 1440p gaming, cant afford to wait for the Ti version as my old 680 isnt up for that resolution Case From previous build PSU Semi-modular- Gold- 5 years warranty Fans Gonna replace all the stock fans with AF 140 and replace the ones from the cpu cooler with the SP120 Monitors Vesa compatible as I will mount them in a single arm,loved the thin bezels

Between the m50x and the Dt 770, who would be the winner? Also I´m gonna use the headphones with a S3 Mini

As the title say I´m looking for the best headphones and DAC for gaming and on a secondary usage for spotify and FLAC´s playback My Budget is around 350 usd What type of game? Mainly First Person Shotter What type of music? Rock,Metal, EDM that kind of genre So I need bass, not overpowering but a decent amount and with quality I will be using them in a noisy enviroment so isolation is a must Thanks

Well I,m gonna use them with the X1 in my hour daily trip to college so thats another point to take in account

So currently I have the Logitech Z506 5.1 speakers and the Razer Tiamat 2.2 Headset plugged directly to my motherboard I have a little extra cash so I want to improve my audio experience So if I go with Studio Monitors I have 3 options, M-Audio AV40, M-Audio AV30 or Mackie CR4 The other path is M50X and a Fiio E10K and later on an X1 The use will be mainly for games,movies and music Genre: Glitch Hop, Rock, Metal, Instrumental I want bass but something balanced not overpowered

5,000 Mexican pesos, about 320 USD Dollars

So currently I'm using the logitech z506 5.1 speaker set and onboard audio, my music library is in Spotify max audio quality and some FLAC files I generally listen to EDM and Metal so is pretty heavy in the bass section and some gaming such as FPS and RPG My question is if I decided to buy a pair of studio monitors and a DAC such as the Fiio e10k would I see a improvement in audio quality? For monitors I'm looking into the M Audio AV 40 or the Mackies CR4? Wich ones should I get? Or should I just stay with onboard and 5.1

So i´m planing to upgrade my CPU, but I´m not sure if I need to jump from AMD to Intel Right now I have a Phenom II X6 1055T @ 3.5Ghz with a Asus M5a97 r2.0 Motherboard, i was thinkin about going blue side with a i5 4460 and GA-H97 Gaming 3 or to stay with the AM3+ socket and only buy a FX8350, around september I´m buying a new GPU( GTX 970 or 980 if there´s a considerable price drop after the Ti launch in my country) and for the CPU cooler I have a Noctua NH-D14 that I managed to scavenge from another build So whats my best option? What I´m playing? Mainsteam AAA Titles, Witcher,LOTR,COD,BF4

I found mercadolibre.mx and some vendors in this site can import the M-Audio but not the mackies

Much Aprecciated Right now I´m inclined for the M-Studio because the Mackies cant be imported to my country right now because the conversion of the local currrency
