I personally really like BenQ XL-series monitors. You should check them out! Both 24" and 27" are available and of course in 144Hz! Price vary from 250$ to 600$ so there is much to choose from. Give them a look!

I had 2 displays in your build, was your budget higher?

 

1080p IPS, VESA mount $100 bucks

Dual Monitor Mount

and don't get an OEM windows key if you're going to buy windows, as you can only use them once

Also why a headset when you already have a microphone? there are going to be better headphone options in that price range

and like I said before you might want closed headphones just so it doesn't have much chance to echo

Like I said in your other thread

 

either 1080p TN 144hz Free-sync
https://pcpartpicker.com/part/aoc-monitor-g2460pf

 

or 1440p IPS 60hz
https://pcpartpicker.com/part/acer-monitor-umhx2aa001

Maybe look into korean displays to save some money on the 1440p display, I have this one and it's flawless at $200, results may vary

It still has an OEM key,

 

just pay the extra 7 dollars and get free-sync, gameplay will be much smoother

 

Here's the free-sync display

Where would you buy windows

Where would you buy windows

I don't buy windows, at least not yet, I'll buy windows 10 pro at some point when I have a spare 200 bucks, probably in a few months after years of being a pirate, finally got a job lol

in any case, it doesn't matter where I'd just suggest you avoid the grey market if your'e going to buy windows.

 

just make sure you're buying a full retail key should you buy windows, as OEM keys can only be used once

This one is Home and comes with a flash drive

Also if you use windows 10 home you can't control when your PC updates, that's only in the pro or above versions if I'm not mistaken, you can only delay updates, not prevent them

 

 

I'll be using windows 7 until the end of time most likely even when I do buy windows 10


You could also just buy it straight from microsoft

Probably depends if you want to use DX12, which won't be a thing for a while

 

overall 10 isn't going to be too bad, you just have to disable the built in spyware, otherwise it will be a bit nicer than 7

Why not get open headphones?

They have a wider sound stage, but if you're streaming, any sound leak might be picked up by your microphone, so if you get closed, all the sound stays in

Wouldn't that be better for like csgo and other games or is it really that loud

If you turn them down that would lessen the issue, and ya CS:GO would be better with open headphones, In any case the Superlux 668Bs from that video are pretty solid at 40 bucks, I use them

 

and like I said in the other thread, you probably don't want to start with a yeti if you end up not liking streaming, better off with a Samson GO mic or like a snowball for now to save some cash there as well.

no clue, but I'd probably just generally avoid wireless headphones
