Budget?

A single card is almost always better than SLI. I would go for a 1080ti and sell the 1070 after prices normalize. You could sell the 1070 and game on the 970 now, and make a little money.

I am contemplating purchasing the Aero 15x, and have one major question. I will be using the laptop as a daily driver but also doing some light gaming. I was curious if the 1070 model is worth it over the 1060, even though it has a 1080P 60hz display. I feel like the performance of the 1070 would be wasted, and it would affect battery life negatively. I was looking at benchmarks, and it seems like the 1060 can manage 60fps in every modern title at high settings. Thoughts?

"Cheap tube amps" are not bad at all. Hell a vali 2 is fun to play with and performs quite well. A Valhalla 2 would be an adequate pair with the HD800s. I do believe OP should just buy a pair of HD800s and do the SuperDupont Resonator, making it almost identical to the HD800s for much less, but hey, modding isn't for everyone.

Bump - Any ideas?

I have 3x Dell S2716DG monitors and have just been using the included stand for now. I want to clear up some desk space though, so I was thinking about getting a triple monitor stand. The problem is most stands can barely support 27 inch, and if they can they can’t be adjusted to a suitable angle. I was wondering if I should go with three single monitor clamps or maybe roll the dice and go for a ergo tech triple monitor stand.

I am setting up a home theater system, and want to buy some nice speakers for Christmas. I am going to be using a Denon AVR-S510B, and a Bic America F12, but can't decide on the speakers. I am trying to make a decision between the ELAC Uni-fi UF5 Floorstanding, and the SVS Ultras. Any suggestions would be great.

I would go with a 55inch LG OLED at about $1600, and spend the rest on your PC.

I use both tunnel bear and IPvanish, and both are great. Tunnel bear always connects, and I never have trouble. IPvanish has some issues but the support is great. They also have great software, more servers, and phenomenal support.

I have been gaming on the go more and more recently, using my laptop. The problem is, I have a relatively unportable pair of open cans with a vmoda boom pro that I have been using. I want a more portable solution that includes a mic, and sounds great all around. I am fine with wired, or wireless, whatever is portable. Comfort is important, and so is mic quality. I listen to movies, music, and game on my laptop so I would like a headset that can do all well. I also need it to be closed as my laptop gets pretty loud. Any recommendations? I have been looking at the Sennheiser Game One, and 373D

For a friend, I am looking at a OLED TV and a possible surround sound system. I have pretty much settled on a 65 inch LG C7 TV, but the speaker setup is more tricky. I originally was going to tell him to go with a Dolby Atmos soundbar and sub, but the room is too tall for that. The problem is, the wiring is pretty difficult in the area he is suggesting so I wanted a wireless solution. I stumbled across the Klipsch Reference Premiere HD Wireless setup, and I love the idea. But, the reviews are generally lacking? Any ideas?

Wait.

I would agree that open cans are superior in nearly every way... I will look into them for sure, do you have any thoughts on the Sony MDR-1A and Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7BK?

I have owned quite a few pairs of open cans, but want to buy a nice pair of closed ones for portable use. I love the sound of my 650s, and also enjoy my X2s, and am looking for similar closed back headphones. Preferably easy to drive with the ability to attach a Vmoda Boom Pro.

Go for the fulla 2, not a fan of the e10k.
