I don't know if you went with an alternative or if you are still looking but if you are still interested overclockers is now showing the gl850 as back in stock, I just managed to order mine https://www.overclockers.co.uk/lg-27gl850-b-27-2560x1440-nano-ips-144hz-1ms-freesync-g-sync-compatible-widescreen-led-gaming-monit-mo-155-lg.html

I have posted other threads about wanting a new monitor 1440p 144hz but unfortunately lots of displays are out of stock (I ideally wanted the LG gl850) so thought I would start a new thread (sorry if it's spammy) with what seems to be the only 2 monitors I can currently find in stock at these specs and not way over budget. Which would you say is the better option from the two mentioned in the title, knowing they are both of a similar price (£500 ish) For background; I will be powering it with a RTX 2070 and mainly playing games (RPG's and FPS though not super competitively) and standard browsing / YouTube and light content streaming.

Yeah me either until I browsed overclockers forums and a mod post stated it. If you do go for the vg27aq it is slightly cheaper on amazion: https://www.amazon.co.uk/ASUS-Gaming-VG27AQ-Monitor-Adaptive-Sync/dp/B07VTPKCLS someone else here also recommended me this https://www.amazon.co.uk/ASUS-Gaming-VG32VQ-Curved-Monitor/dp/B07TTJR48G which is slightly bigger and cheaper but is slower and isn't an IPS panel, so I'm kinda torn myself

I am in the exact same position. Overclockers have exclusivity on the gl850 here in the UK and haven't responded about stock levels so I have been looking at getting the Asus TUF VG27AQ instead: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus-tuf-gaming-vg27aq-27-2560x1440-ips-165hz-1ms-freesync-g-sync-compatible-gaming-monitor-mo-0a9-as.html I'd be interested to see what you go for and what others suggest

I know you recommended the Asus vg32vq but putting it up against the vg27aq that whilst smaller has faster refresh and is an ips, but being around £100 more expensive, which would you go for and what if anything would be your reasoning, or just personal preference?

Thanks for the suggestions and confirming it's not a bad switch. Think I'm looking at either the lg 27 gl850 or the Asus vg32vq. I would also consider the viewsonic xg270qg but doesn't seem to be available anywhere on the UK market. Saying that the other two also seem to be hard to come by. But that's for the response nonetheless

So as the title says I'm looking at switching from a dual monitor set up to a single monitor. I currently use two old 1080p Samsung monitors (a syncmaster s24f350 and a p2450h) which are like 5 and 11 years old respectively and 24". I mostly use my pc for gaming and some office work so looking at something with a higher refresh rate and would like something that can display in 1440p. I have an rtx 2070 so would like to be getting a bit more from it than currently with my old monitors. I would like to spend around the £300 mark but depending on the product I'd be open to spending more since as you can see I tend to not upgrade monitors often. What would you suggest? And has anyone done a similar switch and how did you find going from two monitors back to 1? I do love the convenience of dual monitors but can't afford two new monitors unfortunately.

The monitor above that boggy has linked is VA but has a 1millisecond response time, whats the case against VA? Sorry, I'm not too well versed on monitor tech, hence asking here.

I am in the UK, England more specifically.

So I'm looking at buying a new monitor and need it to be max £300 (~$380) but ideally less . I am looking for suggestions as to what the absolute best is in this price range. Usage will be gaming and general computer usage / web browsing, whilst I do use some editing tools it's not to a professional level so I wouldn't need to consider that. Ideally I would like a 1440p 144Hz monitor but not sure if that is possible with the budget I have set, if someone could show me otherwise that would be great I currently have two pretty generic old samsung hdmi 1080p 60hz monitors (syncmasters I think they are) GPU wise I am running a RTX 2070 If not exact suggestions just tips for the best things to look for above resolution and refresh rate would be good like what panel is best and things like that. Thanks

Yeah I have reached out to CM support to see what they can do if anything. Can't find any spares myself, the UK for some reason isn't a great place for things like this. Me either, thanks for looking anyway. For now I have managed to gorilla glue it all back together but it's isn't without its imperfections but it's functional at least. Suppose of all things to break it could have been much worse, really surprised the glass side panel survived and the HDD.

Hi, So I recently built a new system in a Coolermaster H500 RGB case (https://www.ebuyer.com/845129-cooler-master-mastercase-h500-rgb-computer-case-mcm-h500-ignn-s00) I had it on my desk and unfortunately my young niece had an accident and fellover into it knocking it off, luckily everything internally is fine (or seems to be for now) just the front panel of the case smashed off. (the niece is also fine) Does anyone know of a UK supplier that stocks spare parts? I do have the clear one that comes in the box but would much prefer to have the mesh one for airflow (and I prefer the look) Big thanks to anyone with any info

This is what I was thinking regarding HT. The 9700k is actually the exact same price in the UK (atleast from my retailer) so don't know how that affects the decision?

Mainly Adobe products such as Premiere, Photoshop and some After effects. OBS for streaming / capturing Then many different IDE's for different platforms. I am looking to get the build complete this week so not really looking to wait unfortunately.

Hi so I'm about to purchase parts for a new gaming and streaming / all round rig (bits of video / graphic editing and programming, nothing major) I had originally picked out the i5 9600k but having seen some reviews and especially the gamers nexus video I am having second thoughts. I am now also looking at the i7 8700k or the 9700k, they are currently the same price with my retailer. Out of the three, which do you think is best option? How much does hyperthreading make a difference etc...
