What should I get?

Arcapse1 · October 21, 2015

This is a rather vague topic but, I've got a bunch of money (£200ish) sitting about, and I'd like to upgrade my setup. I'm really indecisive so I don't really know what I should get.

So, my current thoughts are to get a GT Omega Pro. Right now I have a pretty old desk chair, my arse get's kinda sore after a long session x) Plus the leather on it is starting to 'peel' off, and by the end of a week my floor is covered with bits of leather (so sad I know).

Next, I'm thinking on getting a new monitor, possibly an Ultrawide. Currently it's fairly difficult to multitask on my monitor. School work can be difficult at times, plus it'd be good to game with.. that may be more important x)

Or maybe new speakers, currently I have a pair of boring Wharfedale stereo desktop speakers, they are good, I've never really been in contact with good speakers, so I'm not really sure if I need new speakers.

Finally, I'm considering getting a Corsair K70 & a Corsair H100i GTX (both in the purchase). I currently have a Corsair K30, it's okay, it's a keyboard, I've never really used a mechanical keyboard so again like the speakers, I don't know if it's worth it. I currently have a CM Hyper 212 Evo, I don't plan on overclocking, but the quieter experience from the H100i GTX seems very promising.

Don't do it just for that if you're not going to overclock, it'd be a huge waste. Even more so since one of the common complaints I read with Corsair's AIOs is that the stock fans tend to be loud and would need replacing anyway if you want absolute silence. Grab a PWM Noctua or Be Quiet! fan for your 212+ if your main issue is noise and less pure overclock potential.

I'd get the chair, you're going to use it more than anything else really

Should probably start a thread, and state your build's budget in the thread.
