Title: show off your e-peen
Post by: shawwn on January 20, 2014, 02:08:21 PM: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/stoonley/saved/3uzS

Guy at work was looking to buy an lcd monitor for his kid so I am selling him my 23 inch lcd 2ms, and just bought the 144hz 1ms monitor by asus.http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236313 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236313).

Sterrin bought one recently, said it was bright as hell out of the box, and colors need adjusting, but otherwise aiming is a lot easier, motion blur is almost completely eliminated. In order to get the full effect of a 144hz you have to run 144 frames per second. Sound card is coming in tomorrow. Not really needed for this game, but hopefully in feburary they will have moved to a different sound engine.

I really need to reformat my PC, as I haven't reformatted since Win7 beta. I just got the i5 and 275 gtx from a guy I went to school with a few weeks ago. I average about 35 fps now, used to be around 25.

I also bought a samsung 840 pro SSD, but I'm debating either using it for my HTPC build or gaming pc.

I know its pretty crappy, but I got the mobo+proc for 100 and graphics card for $40. I'm not really at the stage yet where I want to be dropping money into my gaming pc.

Monitor's a Samsung Syncmaster 2253BW. Power supply's a ThermalTake W0117RU 750W. Case isn't the V3. Apparently things I bought in 2008 aren't current enough for pcpartpicker. Who knew?

Title: Re: show off your e-peen
Post by: shawwn on February 18, 2014, 05:45:25 PM: They get uncomfortable to me after an hour plus of use. The 558's are known to have a large soundstage which makes it easier to pinpoint footsteps an what not. Not that it would make much of a difference in the game right now. I like the headset it's really good, other then it being uncomfortable after an hour or so
