    How is this list looking?

    Thanks for info on fans, I have one question though, are the front panel fans visible from the window or are they concealed? If they're concealed then i can forget about aesthetics Lmao, I guess I'll try you're rather strange paper mouse pad method, but tbh a piece of paper would look weird...

    How is this list looking?

    I understand that competitive games don't tend to be graphically intensive, but running any fps game at 144+Hz in my opinion feels amazing, games like overwatch can run a 1080ti at 1440p at max settings at around 170-200 frames.

    Is this build optimal for 144hz gaming at 1440p?

    I'm not just going for performance on my system, but looks too, and I'm worried downgrading some parts will make my PC look worse overall, specifically the case. I'll look into the mobo and see if I can save some money on that, and I'll do what you said for the psu. Ty for advice

    Is this build optimal for 144hz gaming at 1440p?

    Thanks :) I would go for the 1080ti, but money wise I'm already slightly over my budget, and tbh I'll probably only get an extra 10-20 frames with it

    Can a GTX 1060 6GB run overwatch at 144+ fps?

    I'm building a PC and planning to play overwatch and some other games on it, is a 1060 6GB enough to run the game at a solid 144 fps at 1080p when paired with an i5 7500? I'm confident it'll run at low settings but I'm planning on ultra or even epic, so can I have some help?
