Been saving and building roughly for the past 6 mos.
Currently running the following.
i7 8700k
MSI Z370 Gaming Pro Carb mobo
EVGA GeForce 1080 TI FTW3
G.Skill TridentZ 32GB RGB (2x16) DR4 3200 (PC4 25600)
EVGA SuperNOVA 1200w
(a bit excessive but the wifey said I could build so...)
Current Monitor:
ASUS VG248QE 24"
I'm currently on the hunt for a 2nd monitor specifically for gaming that can be immersive (at least 30") but can take advantage of my current build.
I've already looked at quite a few monitors but its hard to make an actual decision since this is my first build in the past 5 yrs so I feel a bit unsure.
Side note: didn't know I needed a VESA Certified DisplayPort Cable for this graphics card. bought the amazon recommended one when picking up the monitor but had to go get a whole different one to get actual display.
Also hope I put this on the right thread since I've always been a lurker and used this website a lot to read opinions on some of the parts I put into this rig.
