Maybe I should try to get PG279Q? PG278Q would be cheaper but not too much.

I recently bought GTX 1080 and I thought maybe I should upgrade my monitor to take advantage of its power. I currently have BenQ GL2450 (1980x1080 60 Hz TN) and LG Flatron W2241S (1680x1050 60 Hz TN). Though, I am not able to use the LG one because GTX 1080 doesn't have a DVI-I/VGA port. I will...

I am looking for a setup that would be able to run VR games on high settings on HTC Vive. I can spend whatever amount is necessary but of course would not like to overkill it. Which of these options would you go for? I added the costs in Sweden. Before you suggest me to order from USA, I would...

I'll most probably get GTX 1070 when it launches. (Or GTX 1080, I'll decide once I see the benchmarks.) I currently have GTX 660. DirectX 12 (and Vulkan) brough some options for developers to utilize multiple cards in games even if they are different power levels. What's the current state of...

I'd like to install a SSD in my laptop but it doesn't quite fit. Is it safe to remove the cover to make it thinner? The SSD I have is OCZ Agility 3.

I managed to find the solution: AHCI driver was crashing for some reason. I removed it and replaced it with Microsoft default one.

Phanteks Enthoo Pro. It should fit CPU cooler up to 193 mm.

Hmm. Raijintek Themis EVO is 2 euros more expensive than 212 EVO. I doesn't fit my original request of having a black fan but red doesn't look bad. According to that review it has better performance than 212 EVO. It might be my pick here. What do you think?

My local shopping site has got an offer for Asus Z97-AR. Is this a fine motherboard to get for i7 4770k? I plan to do a mild overclock.

I'm going to be using i7 4770k possibly with a very slight overclock. Do you think Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO would do fine or would I be better off with something else? I don't have a real budget. I am rather looking for "bang for buck".
