What would you change in the specs above you?

Cacao

This is pretty straight forward, if you could change one thing about the specs above you, what would it be?

Some rules:

You can only change OR add 1 component.

The change must be within the bounds of reason (don't tell someone with a 400$ build to add 4 titans).

Your change should be constructive, something that you think would make the rig better.

3... 2... 1... GO!

On a phone is hard cause you can't see a sig, but from memory I think you should ditch the 3 monitors, steal your dad's 4k and buy a second 4k and have 2 screens

uhh.... xD

 

Pretty nice set up, the only things I'd personally change is adding a GTX 770 or 780 and changing the RAM, a single 8GB stick would drive me insane, would have to be 2x4GB at least, I would also change the PSU from the 1,050w to an 850w SeaSonic unit.

changeout the Cooler Master HYper 212+ with some AIO Unit probably the H220,sell the HP monitor and get a second of the Asus VG248QE + get a second 120gb ssd for caching & most used stuff

Only one component guys! Put some thought into it and find the ONE thing that you would change.

Get a new GPU, depending on budget one of the GTX 700 series.

Or get Xeon e3-1230v2 ivy bridge i7 without iGPU and locked from OC.

So... If Jesus had the gold, would he buy himself out instead of waiting 3 days for the respawn?

1. What is your GPU?

2. Replace that piece of crap with something adequate, low end IPs I recommend Dell u2312hm, epic monitor at a budget price. 1080p

If you have money, get 1440p but you will need a lot of horsepower to play games.

*edit: I fixed it :) i'm upgrading to a XL2411T soon, it's TN but I play competitive counter-strike and other twitch first person shooter so it's important.
