Thanks for the help, last question, will 60 be fine for the secondary or will i need matching refresh rates? I read that peoples main monitors seem to drop to the refresh rate of the secondary monitors.

Do you think that this would be the best option or should I just go with a 1080p secondary as well but in 16:9? I want the UW for gaming and the 16:9 secondary mostly for programming.

Was talking a bit more about just the difference in resolution and overall image quality between the two monitors rather than scaling because I'm thinking of having it in a vertical setup so it might not look as weird with regards to the scale.

Would it not look weird having a 1080p 144hz next to a 1440p 60hz monitor?

Yeah i forgot to mention that I dont really buy high end graphics cards, I have an rx580 right now. I do plan on upgrading my gpu but dont think it will be anytime soon as I dont feel the need to run every game on ultra settings at crazy high fps. I feel that 1080 is fine for me especially good for competitive fps games where it would be nice to reach the 144hz. I also do a bit of programming and was thinking about getting a vertical monitor as a secondary monitor. Would a 1080p main ultrawide 144hz and maybe a 1440p 60hz as a secondary vertical work in the same setup connected to one gpu?

Hi, I currently own the lg34um68 75hz 2560x1080 ultrawide. Started to play a good few competitive fps shooters recently and was wondering whether an upgrade from this to something like this lg34gl750-b would be worth it, also price on this right now is pretty high for what it offers for some reason. I'd literally be upgrading just for the refresh rate and I'm not sure if its worth it. Never used a 144hz panel so was looking for some advice on this.

Thanks for those replies, this definitely changed my view on these boards, one more question about it. I see that there is no usb type c header on the tomahawk, I am using the nzxt 510 and I dont want to have a completely useless front panel. Is there any workaround for this or should I look at a different board?

What about the B450 asus rog or aorus would they be alright as well? I quite like the look of those.

I posted yesterday about my motherboard which died on me after a long time and I was debating whether to just upgrade to ryzen from my i7-4770 or to just get a cheap mobo. After looking for one since yesterday I gave up and I've decided to upgrade. So, my question is whats the best mobo, ram, cpu bundle out there right now for 300-400 euro.

Thank you so much for the quick replies :))

Considering I had an old motherboard that came from a prebuilt pc I won't need much. I have an i7-4770 What do you think would be the max price I should be paying for one of these? Thanks for the replies.

Hey, my lga1150 motherboard died recently and I am debating on whether I should get a cheap used one somewhere or buy new. I'm leaning towards just buying a cheap one for now but I'm having a hard time finding one. Question what mb do I get and where do I get it ? Thanks in advance EDIT: by buying new I meant buying new cpu ram and mb combo.

Would a green motherboard (MS 7826 ver 1.0 to be exact) look bad in something like the all black s340 or h500? My setup is mostly black/red so green kind of ruins it. Would a tinted side panel work or maybe rgb strips? Just trying to look at all my options here.

Thanks for the suggestion, looks like a really good case and also very cheap. I'm still 50/50 but honestly starting to lean more towards a non windowed case.

Hi, this might be a stupid problem but it is really annoying me I've recently started to upgrade my pre built pc as it was getting pretty outdated and was looking to do a case swap. It's got an i7-4770, 16gb ram, I already upgraded the gpu to an rx 580 8gb and got a new psu. So my problem is this pre built has a green motherboard as most do and it completely messes up the whole build and I'm not sure if I'll be able to deal with it... So my question is, what would be the best way to hide this green colour. Not sure if I'm not just better off getting a non window case or trying to make this ugly motherboard fit somehow. Any suggestions?
