Gaming PC..... Where to buy?

[proffrink]

Titans aren't a good investment anyway - they were made a premium choice for the increased driver support and developer tools; they are not a consumer card. Buy 980 Tis if you want gaming performance.

I have.... 2 x 980TIs and some other shiney trinkets

[Guest PT247]

Hope you're planning to play star citizen with that!

probs a bit of tetris, maybe some solitare! ;-)

I7 eh, can't imagine what you'll be using that for.

[Guest PT247]

por n lol

[Sacarathe]

How many monitors do you use?

[Guest PT247]

2 currently: 34" ultrawide curved monitor and a 29" widescreen, although when I have funds free I want to get another 2 34" ultrawide curved screens, will then have 3 screens on the new PC and run the 29" off this PC alongside it

[proffrink]

With two 980s you should probably consider a decent 4K.

[Guest PT247]

am happy with the ultrawides tbh I can't tell the difference, didn't even realise they weren't classed as 4k

What mouse you going for?

 

I quite like the RATT series but the QC isn't the best (had 2 break so far). I've now switched to a Logitech G502 which is wired and I have to say it's pretty good.

[Guest PT247]

already have mouse and keyboard so don't need to get them but both are Razer.... left handed Deathadder mouse and their Deathstalker keyboard.

[mightyjebus]

nice. I've had razer before and well worth the money.

[Guest PT247]

I couldn't really find any wired left handed gaming mice from anyone else at the time I got it. They both do the job nicely, much better than the wireless stuff I had previously :-)

[Guest PT247]
