What games do you play? Your i7 should hold up fine if you choose to upgrade.

See if you can send it in for repair otherwise you'll have to buy a replacement part online and fix it yourself.

I would also agree to keep saving until you have enough for a CPU, GPU, and power supply upgrade. $200 is not going to buy you anything substantial.

What brand and model is your power supply? It would be helpful if you could post your computer's complete specs.

Most likely at 1080p. The required specs are usually exaggerated.

Just found out about this song and it blew me away. The drop is around 2:42 in case you're bored at the start though I would encourage watching all the way through.

Leakage won't be loud enough to bleed through walls, to get an idea play audio with your headphones at normal volume and keep them earpad side up on your desk. Only people a few feet around you can hear what you're listening to. As for the E10K there should be a noticeable difference. Bass...

Have you tried selecting the soundbar as a source from the TV's menu?

The m50x will offer more portability and isolation compared to the open back DT 990 PRO. No amp would be needed and they also fold and have a removable cable. Sound wise they are similar in that they both have a "v" shape sound; highs and lows are boosted while mids take a step back. However...

Schiit has some good options in that price range, although an external DAC might not be needed. What devices will the DAC be connected to and what is the rest of your audio setup looking like?

Looks solid, all you really need is a graphics card upgrade. A Nvidia GTX 1070 should work well at 1440p ~high settings with >60FPS for most games.

Monitor unless you're happy with 1080p. If you like listening to music perhaps consider a headphone/speaker upgrade (depending on what you currently have).

Not worth buying, you will notice a subtle change at best with something like a Schiit stack. More volume for sure though and you get a physical volume knob (depending on the model). Unless you're hearing background noise with onboard there is no need for an external dac.
