    Review: Dell U3415W (Ultra-Widescreen 21:9 Curved 34" Gaming-Monitor)
     


    Introduction
    Hey there! I recently Pre-Purchased and just recieved the new Dell monitor without really knowing how it's going to turn out. Due to positive reviews of the LG 21:9 34" I gave it a try. Another important thing to mention is, this is actually the cheapest 34" monitor in germany, and it is curved!
    I only paid 733,98 €.
     
    First impression
    At first we take a look into the box (which is damn heavy btw).
    There we can find:
    a powercord a Mini-DisplayPort to Displayport 1.8m cable a HDMI 2m cable a USB 3.0 A to USB 3.0 B 2m cable a stand several documents the actual monitor Everything assembled...this monitor is freaking huge, you feel like a commander in a spaceship!
    So far I'm loving it!

    hi all,
    here it is my first ever computer build a big shout out to linus and his YouTube channel for literally teaching me everything through his videos love them and all the parts i got were mainly inspired by his videos and some of the reviews and comments in this forum. so a big thankyou for all your help  this is my first ever build and took a long hard month of work mainly learning about computers and components but again this forum was a massive help in this regard, i had no access to decent power tools till late in the build and had to learn alot on the go, there was alot of redoing and changing, but was good fun and at the end of the day am really happy with the out come.

    broken set square
    junior hack saw
    un grounded bare cable drill (got many and electric shock)
    craft knife
    some scrap bits of sandpaper various grits
     
    eventually had to invest in a dremel and the thing is fantastic will never go back, once i got it wanted to cut everything i saw up!!!
     
    so on with the build i suppose too start i had to decide on a case which was incredibly hard with so many to choose from and all offering different things, i eventually came across the corsair 600t which once i saw i instantly loved and had to get it, a great all round case that was fantastic too mod. like i say with limited tools and no access to any design programs decent power tools or cad machines this will by no means be a professional build but i loved doing it none the less.
