  1. I am planning to use 3 external 27" monitors, that's why I was saying to have an external GPU
  2. Thank you for the suggestion. The budget is around 900, going a bit above it is not a problem, that's just a ballpark number. I was looking at something with a non-integrated graphics card, even one like 2060 or even as low as 1660ti, as I don;t thing integrated would run 3 external monitors smoothly. I am currently looking at this https://www.newegg.com/p/2WC-000C-03HE0?Item=9SIA7ABD161155&quicklink=true , but that seems like too much and a lot of things that I don't reallty need (32 gb are too much and other things.
  3. Hello everyone and thank you for reading this post. Let me preface saying I am a hardware enthusiast, build all my machines and love that. On the other side, I don't really keep myself up to date with laptops, that's why I am asking this question here. I need some advice for a Laptop I am looking to buy for a friend. He needs this laptop mostly for day trading but that means having a lot of chrome tabs open at the same time as programs and live podcasts (probably need more than 8GB RAM). I am looking to setup a desk in his house where he would like, when there, to hook up this computer to 3 27" external monitors (I assume a integrated GPU would be nice for this) and, when leaving the house for a few days, bring it with him. This means he needs it to be able to easily connect and disconnect from a docking station so he can do this with ease. He doesn't really mind if it's a little bit on the heavy side. My budget is around 900$ for the laptop and docking station. I assume it would probably make more sense for me to look among gaming laptops because of my GPU, RAM and cooling needs (he will be using this a lot). Thank you in advance for your input, it's very appreciated, JohanAngel
  4. I would be needing a microphone that sits on my desk while I stream. These seem to be the handheld ones and that would make it a little hard for me Would I be getting a stand too?
  5. Hello everybody, I recently got back into streaming and I realized that the audio setup that I am running at the moment is just not good enough since I use my headphones mic which sounds average (good for being a headphones mic, but not satisfactory). This means that I am in the market for a good mic that can increase my audio quality. Budget would be somewhere in the 100-150$ and I would prefer to have something USB. I have looked at some options online and It looks like the race is between the AT2020, the Blue Yeti Pro and the HyperX quadcast. I am unsure, though, if there are also other, better options that would fit my necessity better. The main concern that I have is that I am using a rather noisy mechanical keyboard so, in case there would be some mic or setting that I could use in order to get rid or diminish the noise coming from that, it would be great! I thank all of you that would be helping me. This is truly a great community and I could not think of a better place to find help with something this important for me. Thanks in advance
  6. Ok, I understand better now, thanks. My question now is, at that price, isn't there anything better out there? @dizmo @Rasbir Singh
  7. Sorry my ignorance, but why is this better? I read that TN is usually better for gaming, especially at low delay and high FPS.
  8. Yeah, but I'm not an expert in like contrast, angles, brightness and all of those things
  9. yeah, I tried, but Benq does not make 27" G-Sync monitors. They are my #1 brand when it comes so monitors.
  10. Hello everyone, I'm in the market for a new monitor. I already have a 3 monitor setup, but they are all pretty average, so I was looking to substitute only 1 of them, the main one, to optimize it for gaming. Of course, I would like it to be 27" to go with the other 2 monitors that I already have. Since I have a 1080 I was looking something with G-Sync and with at least 120Hz not less than 1440p with around 1ms response rate. After this, I don't really understand much about monitors so I would like some help if you guys could. My budget is around 500-600 $ so I was leaning on this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N11QIYW/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 which seems to be pretty good for my needs. Thanks in advance for your help
  11. the problem is that, even though here there is a 1080 (+6% compared to 1070Ti), this monitor does not have G-Sync
  12. ok, so can I just do this?

  13. Yeah, I thought of that too, but I think he will be using his old HDD for steam or things like that
  14. Sorry, forgot to mention it. It's mostly gaming and the budget is around 1500$. Intel only because he had problems with AMD in the past and decided not to buy again.
