no power supply?

I agree with @Tro get an amd cpu when your on a budget

as @x7ASSASSIN7x said not much you can get for 600, but i would say, not high but decent like medium 720p

for $600 he'd be better off getting a micro atx board with an r9 270, then medium settings and high on some games

You wont get much high settings on a $600 budget

1st or 4th 1st for gaming and 4th if you want to pay 50 dollars less because its a smaller sized screen (I prefer smaller then 24 inch screens personally)

I haven't had a 24 inch before so I might go for the bigger size 

Realistically, you wanna stick with an IPS or PLS monitor to get the best colour, viewing angles and value for money.

The 3rd and 4th monitors have TN panels and wouldn't be the best value for money IMHO.

Those were probably my last choices is the second one the best?

So I'm browsing for a new monitor and I've come across to 4. I'm not sure which one is best for $150 and under. Also, let me know if it is the best time to buy one now for back to school sales. Here are the four from ncix.

KEEP IN MIND: I live in Canada

1st: http://www.ncix.com/detail/acer-g246hyl-bmjj-23-8in-ips-a6-100463-1011.htm
2nd: http://www.ncix.com/detail/samsung-s24d590pl-23-6in-widescreen-pls-c9-95680-1011.htm
3rd: http://www.ncix.com/detail/benq-gl2460hm-24in-widescreen-led-04-95040-1028.htm
4th: http://www.ncix.com/detail/samsung-s22d300hy-21-5in-widescreen-led-74-95675-1011.htm

I personally think the 2nd choice is best but let know your opinions 

Sorry its for US address only. Which is silly because this is the digital component of GameStop...

I probably could put in a fake US address

Can I get this even if I live in Canada?

Don't Forget to hit like

 

Literally just saw that on 9gag

Lol

but you're in school anyone, nobody in there is going to be smart enough to do anything remotely worth being paranoid about

Exactly my thoughts lol

You'll be fine. If its a school, they have their wifi secured 

that display pic tho

Yeah

might be why its slower

looks kind of like pig latin lol 

I've got about 8 extensions

On Chrome?

Did you try updating windows or drivers?

Try restoring your hard drive to the time it worked if you can, you probably cant since you put a fresh install of windows

Your IE might be faster since you don't have as much extensions as you have on chrome. My chrome is faster since I dont have a lot of extensions

Use it for paperweight 

Yeah exactly my problem I was hoping the story would get stronger with each game. They seem to put so much effort into the history and lore, and then forget about incorporating it into the gameplay 

 

I bet 99% of people do not read through all the historical text about the places you visit and the people you meet and instead just do the same boring fight 50 guards to continue all over again

 

You are barely an assassin more just a sword for hire, should be called Mercenaries Creed

lol so true, I remember when I first played the first and second game I loved the achievements and the unlockables like new guns and stuff, but they went and ruined that with the amount of money you receive every mission. I personally think the co-op feature is a way of Ubisoft saying "hey remember when we made brotherhood and you could have assassins help you? ya lets do that again with friends". I think they have run out of ideas

The steering is f**king horrible, it looks like a 2010 game and it's full of bad cutscenes with a quadrillion fade-ins and fade-outs.

Ubisoft, do yourself a favor and put this game in the trashbin

The irony lol, you'd expect good steering in a racing game but guess Ubisoft thinks differently

I played it and felt sick from the locked 30 FPS. 

Don't get me started on that

I do too but I was originally captivated by the story of Desmond, and the end of AC 1 blew my mind when you realised that you had the power of the assasins!

 

Then 2 was a fantastic game, even better than the first and Desmonds story developed over 2, and even more in 3

 

And then they just abandoned it and are just fucking things up, They should have stopped at 2 or 3 and made a modern day game where you play as Desmond doing modern day assassin stuff (like Assassins creed meets watch dogs)

 

But instead they feel like release the same game every 3 months, with terrible stealth, easy combat and boring stories

 

Wasted potential of a cool IP

Didn't they fire the crew [no pun intended] that made the first few assassins creed games? Thats what I heard at least. After playing the games after Ezio, the games seemed to be more towards gameplay than the actual story. I used to play the AC series for the story but now they only focus on gameplay it seems

What @Shd0w2 said, but if you only had those choices then go for the nexus 5

No

 

They have credit for the first Far Cry, and for Prince of Persia (until it went shit)

 

They either copy and paste their games too often (assassins creed) ruin the sequels (far cry 2 etc) or just release broken shit (watch dogs)

You have a point, but I still enjoy assassins creed. I think they did go downhill but still pretty decent games

yeah, haven't played it, but that what you're saying right there very much sucks to hear. 

It does, you should avoid playing it

I have come to the conclusion Ubisoft cannot makes games

Give them credit for Assassins creed
