Hi @brwainer & @sphbecker Thank you for your input, you both appear to have the same answer. While I do understand what you guys are saying, something just does not add up. Firstly, take note this is all home testing and SUPER small scale. One critical key point I missed is that my servers are all VMs. Both solutions you guys provided sounds like my servers need to be physical dedis, well apart from the NAT suggestion. Correct me if I am wrong, since they are VMs, I believe the best solution in this case would be the static NAT 1:1 setup, assuming my consumer router supports it. But what puzzles me, is that with this approach, I would still need to set a LAN IP to my VM servers, and then use NAT. But when I look at an actual data centre VPS that I work with, and I do a ipconfig/ifconfig command, the IP address is literally the public IP and not the LAN IP. Soooo now this all makes no sense again? Would that imply a data centres VM is directly connected to a switch? Whaaat? Also, a side question, Is it possible to get multiple IPs on a LTE connection to the router? I guess I would just need a router that supports static NAT?

Hello This may be an odd question but my brain somehow cannot wrap around how it's done. Okay so let me explain. Currently, my ISP has assigned me a public static IP address. I run a few home servers that I make publicly accessible via port forwarding the servers LAN IP over to the WAN IP. That said, I want to ask my ISP to give me three more public IP addresses or a block of public IPs. And when I have these said IP addresses, I want to assign them each directly to my home servers. Now, here's where the problem comes in. Say they do lease me two extra IPs, how on earth would I distribute those IPs directly to my servers? I assume I need a router for that obviously, but how will it be set up in the router, generally speaking, no specific router in question. Would the router need to be compatible for something like this? If yes, what capabilities should the router have? I basically need the full scope on how I would directly connect one of my servers to these public IP addresses once provided to me, please?

Hi, The option 1 monitor is this one: 27GL650F-B The option 2 I just stated specs in the event I do not go for option 1, so I have no specific monitor for this option 2. That said, my biggest question is do I drop image quality and go for the TN option which has a better resolution or do I take a 1080p which will have perfect picture colors. I have been using TN for years, and if I am honest with myself, I want IPS now. But how bad would a 1080p be on a 27" also, I am fine with a 5ms response, not like I will really notice the difference coming from a 2 ms. But will a 1080p IPS be better than a 1440p TN? That's the question I really need answered. Also, am 90% positive, when next gen console drop, titles such as Rainbow Six Siege will most likely support 120Hz, in fact many games will. I do not see how the console community will not want that, now that next gen will fully support it. @Saksham I hope this reply also answers your question? But also, if you had these two options to choose from, which would be the one you go for?

Good day, I’m in an endless battle with myself to select the right monitor. Currently I have a 24” 1080p 60hz 2ms response, and I am looking to upgrade. My options are: Option 1: - 27” - 1080p - IPS - HDR10 - G-Sync & Adaptive FreeSync compatible - 144Hz, 5ms response Option 2: - 27” - 1440p - TN - FreeSync compatible - 144 Hz, 1ms response My primary goal is to use the monitor on my Xbox One X and daily browsing with some video/movies. With Next gen releasing soon I have a good feeling some game titles may unlock their FPS. I am leaning towards option 1, but then again 1440p support is also pulling me the other way. Sadly, my budget can not compensate for a monitor that supports option 1 specs but has 1440p res. Which of these two would be the best pick and would be a good investment for the next three give or take years? Please explain why.
