  1. Hello. I'm just looking for an app or something to make some part of my job easier on me. Without going into details what I need is a program or app or some method that allows me to overlay 2 windows on Windows 10, make one of them transparent enough to see the window below it, and make an edit to one of them based on the second. Whether this is making the top window transparent and editing it based on the window below or making the top window transparent and pinned on top and editing the lower window with some level of strikethrough. One caveat though. This is for use at my job on a windows 10 enterprise based system, so network security and safety is a big factor. Currently part of my job involves making edits to something on one program based on an image or file of the same item from a separate program. Currently the method we use is the "line them up and resize them to be as close to the same size as possible and alt-tab back and forth making edits and hope for the best" method. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
  2. Yeah. All this is why all of this incredibly confusing and hard to understand. I already own the monitor. I have a Dell S2716DGR 27.0" monitor, so my issue with the next build is should I focus on an Nvidia card since I own a Gsync monitor, or if It's worth looking at the new Radeon GPUs and giving up the Gsync? I've been focusing on a 1660 ti due to finances, but I might be able to step up to a 2060 as long as I'm not dropping $400+ for the card.
  3. I was looking for an aesthetic that wasn't just a silver tower with copper heat pipes. I liked the RGB and the overall appearance of the MA620m along with it having a pretty good performance, but I may have look at other options instead. It's hard to find an air cooler to fit that profile and not have to go AIO, but I may have to just work around the appearance of the cooler and get the aesthetics elsewhere.
  4. I'm currently planning out a new build and was looking at a 1660 ti for the build since I'm still running a GTX 960 and it's a sizeable upgrade and I've had good experiences with my Nvidia cards. I also got a good deal on a new monitor a few months ago and got a 1440p, 144MHz refresh, 1ms response time monitor with Gsync. My conundrum is that the new Radeon cards are looking pretty competitive from what I can see and I'm not sure if I should sacrifice Gsync if I get a good deal on a Radeon card, or should I stick to Nvidia and take advantage of the Gsync?
  5. Either. I don't want to go the AIO route as I've had an issue in the past where the pump went out on it while it was on in the other room for a few hours downloading several GB of stuff online (games, updates, etc.) and completely wrecked my processor. At least with an air cooler if the attached fan goes out it can function in that instance until I can get to it as long as the case has good airflow. Either a decent looking air cooler that can perform well and fit into something like a Phanteks P400a, or a good case that can support the clearance of the MA620m and not just look like a metal rectangle on the desk. Any recommendations on which I should look into reconsidering?
  6. Hello all, I'm looking to upgrade my system that's 4 or 5 years old, and I decided to just do a full new build with a Ryzen 5 3600 HERE. The PC will be almost entirely for gaming, and even then it's basically World of Warcraft and whatever the wife decides to play on it. I'm also shooting for a good aesthetic and air-cooled, so basically my options are whether I want 1 or 2 silver or black towers. Silver towers are out and I've taken a liking to the Cooler Master MA620M, but I'm a little fuzzy on the clearance of the heatsink. Specs say it has a clearance of 165mm, but I'm not sure what to use for a case since almost everything I've liked, like the NZXT H510 elite, has a max clearance of 165mm, and the Phanteks P400a stops at 160mm. I'm assuming a 165mm clearance case would either put the heatsink up against the side panel, or it wouldn't clear the side panel at all and require me leaving it off. Is the clearance of this heatsink going to be a major issue for me, or is it not as complicated as I'm making it out to be?
