If he is competitive you will want a TN panel for anything above 120hz.
Beyond that frequency both VA and IPS panels technically cant have a fast enough pixel response to keep up, resulting in blurring/ghosting thus reducing the effect of high refresh. This is a technical factual limitation.
 
If however he wants a better image then he needs to choose between dealing with IPS glow in dark room environments, or poor viewing angles from VA.
VA has better black levels. again though 120hz is the fastest you can ask for here, even then you have to check reviews to ensure the particular model ur looking at is designed to have as fast a pixel response as possible in real world tests , not just on the spec sheet.
 
Example:
ASUS VG279Q  144hz IPS
Advertised 1ms response
 
Target < 7ms Maximum response (not average) (1sec / 144)
 
Real world response With 80% overdrive = 4.1ms  0-80% 80% transition, 9.8ms 0-80% 100% transition,  Overshoot present.
other targets reveal slower pixel response
i.e
0% - 20% = 100% transition speed of 13.9ms. (Primarily due to overshoot )
80% - 20% = 100% transition speed of 12.5ms

As you can see there's more to it than just looking for a high frequency monitor with an advertised low response time.

I don't mind tweaking it's fun for me

She has her old ssd for boot drive, but i was thinking a 500gb ssd for her E-sports games.

K thanks

Check it with GPU-Z? It will show something like this
 

I want to see AMD go the slumlord route and kill Intel's Atom in one shot with a dual core Zen 2 part aimed at the sub-$300 notebook market. Preferably passively cooled.
 
From there, put the squeeze on Intel by getting more design wins on upper scale devices. Evil plan for world dominance is a go.

If that happens, hell yeah it be AMD's biggest dump on intel and nvidia 

And that's why AMD didn't launch the 16core, that's their nuke
 

K I'll do that. 

>.< rtx 2080ti it's called price overkill. 

B450M MORTAR TITANIUM or asrock B450 steel legend
but not for intel..... go ryzen

I guess it's time to watch my brother build a new custom loop again, all hail my dad's "wallet of infinity". 
Wallet of infinity - pays for everything in the house, even my sister's eevee under garments. 

Well thanks, but I have enough toxicity in my school already. So I don't need more toxicity in my life. 

AMD's Radeon drivers have historically not been all that great during the launches of their GPU lineups. However over time they iron out the kinks and let their GPUs stretch their legs, especially in games. Hence the FineWine.

AMD is still using same architecture as before, unlike NVIDIA

Thanks guys

We have no "intentional" tests yet between 2666mhz and 3200mhz atm other than when a game will not run at 3200mhz and I downclock to go ahead and get it to run without crashing.  I will easily assume there is a about half the delta between 2666mhz and 3200mhz RAM that we have seen at 2133mhz and 3200mhz - because on the side Im working on OCing my 2133mhz ram kit (CL14) and haven't posted results yet.  At 2666mhz CL18  -18-18 result in increased gains in synthetic benchmarks, and smoother low end FPS on my Ryzen 2 rig. 
 
Ryzen Zen = max official supported is 2667mhz anything other than that is silicone - and I can attest to this, my test rig (Ryzen Rig 1) for most of our testing (gaming specific here as all synthetic benchmarks have accepted the RAM at any frequency) - some games will crash at 3200mhz (right now its only Outward and Ring of Elysium, Battlefield 5 patched and...the difference between 2133mhz and 3200mhz is not even measurable at Maxed out settings...you cant play with 2133mhz ram maxed out on my Ryzen Rig 1 until you put in the 3200mhz kit - then its 60 fps smooth butter at 1440p)
Ryzen Zen+ = max official supported is 2933mhz (just putting the info out there)
 
What I HAVE found out doing the 2133mhz CL14 vs 2666mhz CL18 is that the faster Frequency easily beats out the Cas Latency.  Ryzen Rig 2 in sig posted a 2002 Heaven Score at Extreme Presets, bumped to 2666mhz CL18 (loose timings to get it to post) and scored 2038 repeatedly (so not margin of error) - I am positive tightening those timings when I have time will result in even better gains, but Frequency plays the largest role for Zen imho.
EDIT - my lowest FPS increased by 4 FPS as well with higher frequency and hooker timings
 
@OP - There is a difference, software you are running dependent - but my advice is absolutely with Ryzen - if you are building a rig now, get the fastest frequency you can.  You can always downclock for stability if a program just WONT play nice with 3200mhz or more (plus you can always work on the timings till it all works out, Im not super versed in this portion still learning myself).
The only reason I own a 2133mhz kit is back in 2017 you had to pay a mortgage for a 16gb kit and frequency delta vs price delta was huge.

I agree. That $30 isn't going to make any massive performance boosts anywhere else in the build. If it needs to come from somewhere, the mortar could easily jump down to a B450M Bazooka right now for a good savings.

lol, isn't that just like mmorpg war games 

If you jump on it, beware of this.
Just ignore the people who complaints the most in battle. Those people are the average ones, and they are the most harsh and toxic.
The new players and the below averages are quiet because they doesn't know what they're doing (usually). The good and pro players are quiet because they say something by their skill. The average players are the ones who loves to blame other people and commander wannabe while actually they gives low contribution to the team.

Bullies beware 

Style wise I like the H200, but the SG13B and RVZ03 are definitely the better overall ITX cases due to their size advantages. 

BEHOLD!
 
I approve
