It's not true 144hz

If you want a 1440p 144Hz monitor, go with the ROG Swift or Acer Predator imo. If you're looking for a 1080p 144Hz then I have no idea.

Just looked the total of those parts in CAD without watercooling is $1996 CAD, gonna have to not spend that much to stay under $2200 even with that AOC monitor. With watercooling that total even with the monitor you don't like is $2500+ CAD

What kind of monitor do you want? I'll use the poster that made all the watercooling bits and adjust the other PC components in CAD.

I got it back. Do you want a 120/250GB SDD and a 1/2TB HDD or just HDD? (I recommend SSD but the costs are getting high.)

I had to do some adjustments. Ultrawide is really hard to get cheaper than $500 CAD, but I got one, 75Hz refresh. Sorry I can't get 144Hz, and I even had to downgrade for this one.

I would at least recommend a 1050Ti, is cheaper and I can get a better monitor. How about everything else? I had to go to a 1500X but with the GPU difference the $30CAD may come back around for a 1600.

Do you still want 144Hz 1440p or just 1080p?
