    Quadro 4000 uses?

    Hello, Tom's Hardware community! I recently picked up an NVIDIA Quadro 4000 for free and was wondering what I could use it for. I already have 2 GTX 760s so this won't be an upgrade to my knowledge. I do use the adobe suite so this may benefit me, I was wondering if it would benefit me at all...

    should i get 24" monitor 1080p ?

    If you like to play games, there are many affordable 24" 1080p monitors available. Just make sure they have a HDMI port so they can connect to your PS4. I use a 27" 1080p monitor and I am very happy with it. 27" is just big enough that you dont have to sit too close and just wide enough that...

    New computer but my pictures and music are not the color and sound I love, help.

    I highly doubt that anything has changed. Maybe your monitors white balance, more commonly known as color temperature may have changed.
