* Will be using it mostly for games on a 1440p/144hz monitor.
Two questions:
1) Should I get a faster ram?
2) Any case you'd like to recommend? I am looking for a good looking case with glass on the side + good airflow.
Notes:
- I already got i9 9900k and the Z390 Asus Formula motherboard.
- The 1000w PSU is for future SLI possibility.
Thanks in advance!
