Hi all. The pc I built like 7 years ago (with the help of the good people of this forum) is still running well.
Fatal1ty Z170 Gaming-ITX/ac
Intel Skylake Core i7-6700K
Currently running with:
Noctua NH-L9i chromax.black NH-L9I CH.BK Air Cooler and a
GeForce GTX 1080 ARMOR 8G OC
I was running an AIO cpu cooler through an
AORUS GeForce® GTX 1080 Ti Waterforce WB Xtreme Edition 11G
(the gpu sprung a leak but has been repaired)
All this time I have been playing on a basic 21inc Samsung 1080p monitor and I think it is time to upgrade to something a bit more decent.
I found two well priced gamming monitors
