    [SOLVED] Intermittent croaking sound coming from front of computer

    Hi folks, I recently upgraded my GPU (about a month ago). I don't believe the sound began exactly then, but it has certainly started in the interim period. Basically, every few minutes there's a sound that sounds (vaguely) like a frog croaking — which must be a common issue because it is...

    Switch to a 4K monitor or stick with 144hz 1080p monitor

    I currently own the asus vg248qe 24” and have had it for almost 2 years now. When I got it I never noticed the difference like many other people did and was disappointed by it.
