You want me to downgrade to 1080 Ti? I have a Titan XP. Plus the PC is not designed for PC gaming.

no no, just thought you might buy some and just put them in the chassis - unplugged :P. you know - for good measure!

Don't have any room for another GPU on my motherboard.

-------------

- Decided to put the gasket on my 560 after all to close the gaps, since fans were hanging over a bit.
- Cardinal paint comes extremely close to matching the powder coating, You have to look very closely to see the difference.

I was trying to avoid cutting into the divider, didn't have much choice due to height of the fans & radiator.

All my RGB parts come from Germany or Canada(Much Higher Quality). Most of the RGB on Amazon are those cheap Chinese strips.

 

--------

 

I may have to buy a Case-Labs 120 side mount, I'm having problems finding a place to put the aquacomputer filter device. I'm running into clearance issues or radiator is in the way to place it.

 

--------

 

 

I never posted parts I use with my PC. Here it is:

 

Mouse: Logitech G900 Chaos Spectrum Wired/Wireless

Keyboard: Logitech RGB G910 Orion Spark

Monitor: Dell UltraSharp U2715H 27-Inch (1440p version)

Speakers: Bose Companion 5 (5.1 Surround Sound)

 

I thought about upgrading my Monitor, every time I try to buy a G-Sync monitor theirs always something wrong with it. From horrible light bleeding to flickering. My Dell monitor is best monitor I have owned in a very long time. Maybe one day Dell will release a G-Sync IPS or VA monitor for 1440p.

 

Bose speakers are god tier, best sounding speakers I had without having a massive sub-woofer.

[KrMaH]

I'm not sure when, or how much it'll cost, but I've read somewhere that dell is working on a 30 something inch 4k oled panel at 100hz. Maybe something worth checking out?

Edit:

Nevermind, looks like it has been cancelled

But one day! One day 4k 100hz oled panels with gsync will be a thing!

Their are via Performance-pcs seller. I would say say no since all their products are made & shipped from China.

 

Darkside is considered the best, Icemodz is good too. Darkside is rigid, Where Icemodz is flexible strips. I will also go with Darkside, they have never let me down (Except for their CCFL, CCFL is old tech & LED is better these days)

TN is used since it has a faster response time, IPS is cheaper to produce (Atlease last time I checked it was). Asus & others used both IPS & TN both had horrible QA. I had the original G-Sync monitor from Asus that was TN. It had horrible flickering, Dell is the only company I found that had great QA with their monitors + good pricing.

It was canned, OLED is still very expensive & not able to be used on PC due to some of the static images. OLED has short time where image burn can happen.

 

Not sure if I would go 4K with a monitor just yet, their very few things that would require 4K res monitor at my end. I don't even watch 4K video on my PC, I usually stick with 1080p or 1440p.

[Revan654]

I really need to stop binge watching on Amazon Prime & actually start to building the loop.

 

- I got a hold of a Vision Touch Table Top unit (It's the Glossy version). I plan to re-paint it anyways, Doesn't really matter if it's the matte version. Need to figure out how to pop the unit out. I might grab a second one for my other PC, Just so I can keep track of the temps.
- Finally got a hold of two vision terminals as well, both have been shipped.
- The final Waterblock for my M.2 got shipped too.

hmm, It seems the Silicon Bending Inserts I have are not thick enough, I can't find any that work with my tubing since the walls for my tubing are thinner then normal tubing.

 

My tubing is 16/13 & 13mm bending inserts are to lose in the tubing.
