144hrs? damn 1 frame per every 6 days is pretty fast

hello!

is it me you're looking for?

Desktop: X99-PC

CPU: i7 5820k

Mobo: X99 Deluxe

Cooler: Dark Rock Pro 3

RAM: 32GB DDR4
GPU: GTX 1080

Storage: 1TB 850 Evo, 1TB HDD, bunch of external hard drives
PSU: EVGA G2 750w

Peripherals: Logitech G502, Ducky One 711

Audio: Xonar U7, O2 amplifier (RIP), HD6XX

Monitors: 4k 24" Dell monitor, 1080p 24" Asus monitor

 

Laptop:

-Overkill Dell XPS

Fully maxed out early 2017 Dell XPS 15, GTX 1050 4GB, 7700HQ, 1TB nvme SSD, 32GB RAM, 4k display. 97Whr battery :x 
Dell was having a $600 off sale for the fully specced out model, so I decided to get it :P

 

-Crapbook

Fully specced out early 2013 Macbook "pro" with gt 650m and constant 105c temperature on the CPU (GPU is 80-90C) when doing anything intensive...

A 2013 laptop with a regular sized battery still has better battery life than a 2017 laptop with a massive battery! I think this is a testament to apple's ability at making laptops, or maybe how little CPU technology has improved even 4+ years later (at least, until the recent introduction of 15W 4 core CPUs). Anyway, I'm never going to get a 35W CPU laptop again unless battery technology becomes ~5x better than as it is in 2018.

Apple knows how to make proper consumer-grade laptops (they don't know how to make pro laptops though). I guess this mostly software power efficiency related, but getting a mac makes perfect sense if you want a portable/powerful laptop that can do anything you want it to with great battery life.

Do you want 1440p 144hz or 1080p 144hz? 1080p on 27" screen is gonna look pixelated

Pixio px277 is a good value 1440p 144hz 27" monitor

Acer GN276HL is pretty good value

hello!

I personally have an acer gn246hl and am more than happy with it, but then again I also have a 1440p and a 4k beside it so I guess that's why I am fine with it.

Benq XL2720Z should be fine for you (or the Zowie version; they both have the same hardware).

You'll want to do some tweaks when you get good with using the monitor and comfortable with tweaking it.

The "AMA" tweak is more important to do if you have blur reduction disabled rather than enabled, especially if you're in 2D/windows GUI.

BTW you can't see the pixels on this screen unless you set closer than 3 feet (1 meter).  And on a 27" screen you should be sitting a bit farther back anyway.  I chose the 27" 1080p Benq when it was brand new (directly from Benq's shop) over the 24" 1080p XL2420Z, even though I knew people would flame me for it, because I already had a VG248QE and knew exactly what 24" looked like, and it was simply too small, since I kept the monitor at a certain distance.

 

The True successor to the XL2720Z--the non freesync XL2735 is apparently available in limited areas, and unlike the half broken 1440p XL2730Z, it can actually backlight strobe (with the "new" name for blur reduction they call it) at 100hz refresh rate correctly.  Still no word on 60hz strobing for game consoles and 60 FPS locked games, however.
