  1. So guys I'm looking to buy a 144hz monitor, need some advice on this 3 that I've picked out, all 3 cost the same price. 1) BenQ XL2411P 2) ViewSonic XG2402 3) Asus VG258QR (Yes, this is a 165hz monitor but it's priced the same here) Do advice on this...
  2. Not that they're too short, it's because there's a hard drive cage which is making it hard to bend the cables in a way to get them organized. Btw the case i have is a CoolerMaster MB510L TG
  3. I'm having a tough time cable managing the cables that came with my psu, it's not sleeved cables, it's flat cables which are so hard to bend and cable manage it properly. The good thing is it's fully modular, so question is can i use a different set of psu cables (NOT EXTENSIONS) direct from the PSU ? Any brands you recommend ? My psu : FSP Group HydroGE 550W 80+ Gold
  4. I have a i7 8700 now and planning to upgrade to i7 9700K together with my GPU later this year. Which will well give me 240fps
  5. Is it wise to go with a 240Hz monitor or 144hz ? I'm using a RTX2060 and mostly on Fortnite and Apex. I'm planning to upgrade my GPU this year end to a 2080 or a 2080Ti. Is there a huge difference from 144hz to 240hz or a minor difference ? And speaking of it is the BenQ XL series be a good choice of monitors to get ?
  6. I'm planning to upgrade to a high end rig, where should i begin with ? Goal : For high end gaming with a 240Hz monitor, not streaming! Below is the specs i currently have on my machine, CPU : i7 8700 CPU Cooler : ID Cooling Auraflow X 240 MOBO : B360M Aorus Gaming 3 RAM : 2 x 8GB 2666Mhz DDR4 HyperX CL16 GPU : RTX 2060 Asus Strix OC CASE FANS : 3in1 aRGB CoolerMaster MF120R STORAGE 1 : 120GB M.2 2280 WD Green (for Windows) STORAGE 2 : 240GB PNY CS900 SSD (for common games, applications) STORAGE 3 : 1TB Seagate Baraccuda (movies and other apps) PSU : 550W HydroGE Fully Modular 80+ Gold FSP CASE : CoolerMaster MB510L TG 1) Should i begin with changing the Motherboard to a Z series one ? and get a unlocked CPU ? 2) Upgrade to a higher end GPU ? Need some suggestions and advice on the parts i have to improve it maybe.. Pros Cons are much appreciated...
  7. Hey guys, was looking to get a cheap 144hz monitor and i came across this model Acer XB240H, any reviews on this ? Is it worth getting or is there any better suggestions for that price range ?
  8. Have you heard about the brand Aigo ? Aigo Aurora RGB this particular model ?
  9. So i'm looking to get some budget case fans and came across this two options One is a 4 in1 pack Cooler Master Silent Fan 120 Si2 and the other was a 3 in1 Cooler Master Master Fan 120 Air Balance RGB Which one would you recommend to get ? I'll be using a Cooler Master MB510L casing just incase if this info helps in suggesting some options as well
  10. just to add on my question, i'm not planning on keeping it long term, saving up to get some better quality ones in 2/3 months time, so this is just for temporary usage.
  11. So i want to get a budget non rgb fans for my MB510L case. Came across this fan while scouting. Is this any good ? https://www.primeabgb.com/online-price-reviews-india/cooler-master-r4-s2s-124k-gp-120mm-case-fan/ Also if you have any suggestions of case fans with a budget do recommend please.
  12. Looking for a simple case without RGB is totally fine, if it comes with a fan then it's a bonus. Suggest me some cases that i could get for less than $50
  13. I went for a FSP Hydro GE 550W 80+ Gold, Fully Modular psu
  14. Alright man I'll look into it. Thanks for the help
  15. Soo... I'm planning on a new build right now. i7 8700 2x8GB DDR4 Arous b360m Gaming 3 RTX2060 ASUS STRIX 240GB SSD 1TB HDD My question is, does 500W PSU suit the build or need to get higher ?
  16. Because i can only get one now. If i get the i7 8700K now I'll be running it on a b360m mobo for like 3-4 months before moving to a z series
  17. That's why I'm saying I'll only OC the 8700K after i get the Z series mobo.
  18. I have a b360 mobo, m.2 ssd, 8gigs ram and a rtx2060. I'm planning to get a cpu that could last me awhile. I first thought of getting the i7 8700 + an additional 8gigs of ram due to my mobo not being able to OC. When i checked the pricing, the price to get a 8700 + 8gigs ram is the same as getting a 8700K. If I'm getting the 8700K i will upgrade the Mobo and Ram in 3-4 months time.
  19. I do have a m.2 ssd ! I'm using this rig for gaming only, no video rendering or any high performance tasks.
  20. I'm not planning to OC now cause obv I'll be using it on a b360 chipset mobo.
