....Why?

Sorry this took a while... it's a Humanscale M8. Here's a festive panorama.

Yes. A few years ago I foolishly bought an expensive Logitech 5.1 system but decided after just a few short months that I didn't care for surround sound on my computer rig and ended up using it exclusively in two-channel mode. Eventually I got rid of the satellites and replaced them with the...

I am so torn between going ultrawide or getting a second monitor. (And a larger desk)

They're terrible because the drivers are tiny, and they're tiny because there's no space inside a monitor bezel or a television to fit larger speakers. That's why built-in speakers are universally bad.

Decided to finally take a new photo after re-wiring my sound system. I ran new double insulated wire which eliminated some nagging EM noise, and installed rubber isolation feet on my sub to get it up off the floor. (Not pictured, it's down on the bottom right.) I had to pull the whole...

The opening post asks that you keep images a reasonable size.

I can't imagine it looks good unless you're sitting 20 feet back. The PS4 can't even handle 30 frames @ 1080p consistently, many "next-gen" titles are running at 900p and being upscaled just to get to 1080p.

See what they think when High-Color Gamut 4K and HDCP 2.2 become standard at the end of the year.

Get 4K they said, it's future proofed they said.

Just going to repeat this for emphasis. 4-6 dead pixels is not typical when buying a quality panel from a recognized manufacturer. These are cheap for a reason.

If you have (or want to use) any drive-bay devices I wouldn't recommend the 750D just because of how ugly it looks with the bezels removed, due to the wider-than-average faceplate.

There's a price to be paid when asking strangers for help. Just be grateful people are replying to your thread at all and get over it. This is your best scenario. Just get a few batteries, charge them before you leave and swap them when you have to. You don't have to mess about with buying...

The warranty was just an example of how fast the technology is evolving. In less than a year the projected lifespan of a single drive was more than doubled. I'd rather not waste money on half-measures, when I can just wait a bit and get a nice, large capacity MLC drive for a reasonable price.

There's more to it than just speed, it's about reliability. Samsung Pro drives which less than a year ago came with 3-5 year warranties are now coming with 10 year warranties because of advancements in memory design and construction. Imagine what we will have in another 6 months? I'm in no hurry.
