i remember hearing about eax but being a teen (i couldn't afford them at the time) and found a good deal online couple of years ago EAX is pretty great, especially if you never experienced it properly back in the day. I had a SB128 in the early 2000s, and comparing its crappy software EAX to the …

That's pretty close to one of the builds I got, GTX 660 Ti instead of a 580, but they should be pretty similar in performance, and a Xeon X5460, because the high-end C2Q (Q9550, Q9650),are typically more expensive then thy should be with often the price of the Xeon. Dual booting XP and 7. Overall a …

Nobody mentioned panel type yet, but that's one of the more important factors. There are a lot of names, but you basically have four choices: TN: cheap, fastest, but awful viewing angles and colour shift. Iffy white and black levels.

DisplayPort is best. I think it would also help others to know: 1. GPU model 2. Favorite games (or game types: fast-paced pvp shooters, mmorpgs, singleplayer adventure rpgs, etc.. AND years such as 2020+, 1999-2002, etc...) 3. Preferred aspect ratio (4:3, 16:9, 16:10, 21:9, 32:9, etc...) 4. How …

you should be getting a monitor that natively has the resolution you use most, though with a 4k display interpolation is not that much of an issue anymore, but still something to consider. if your GPU can run most games at 1440p that might be a resolution to consider. for me at least resolution …
