    Upgrading to 1440p.

    Currently I am using a 1080p60hz 25 inch TN monitor from scepter and I'm looking to upgrade to a 1440p60hz ips monitor.. I've seen that the general consensus is that 27in is optimal for 1440p, however, I sit quite close to my monitor (about 2 feet away). Would I benefit from a 23.8inch 1440p...

    I was looking at upgrading from an i5 4460 and 970 to an i7 4790k and either a 1070 or a 1070 ti. My PSU is a 550w GS evga 80+ gold. Would I be able to the i7 and 1070 or would I need to upgrade my PSU?

    MSI H81-P33 vs. MSI H81-P33 V2

    Buy the MSI h81m e34 if you can. $50 and it's the same board as the p33, except the e34 has a usb 3.0 header and the p33 doesn't.
