    31.5" 2560x1440 165 Hz VA G-Sync - LG 32GK850G

    Bought this to try out; could not handle the text fuzziness after coming from 32"/4k. Bummer. Just left me with a headache. Sent back to B&H and picked up a different screen. :(

    31.5" 2560x1440 165 Hz VA G-Sync - LG 32GK850G

    Has anyone moved to this from a 32" 4k screen? I'm seriously considering moving from my Dell UP3216q for gaming due to IPS glow; my only concern is the pixel density for non-gaming purposes. Alternatively; if anyone has used 2x 32" monitors side-by-side in an ergonomic way I'd be open to...

    Panel for Dark Games?

    Thanks everyone. I'm down to the LG 32" and the X27. . I'm concerned with the low DPI of 1440p at 32" for the LG and concerned with the variable dimming and going down to a 27" for the X27 Coming from a 32" 4k IPS that I like the form factor of but the IPS glow is too much for dark scenes...

    Panel for Dark Games?

    I'm not a competitive gamer; so not super stressed about high refresh rate (though not opposed to a high refresh rate GSync monitor if it fits!) But I'm looking for something that'll work well for dark (survival horror type) games particularly well. Most gaming monitor reviews seem to address...

    Intel 900p Optane drives to be another paper launch?

    Alright; got mine in. First step was to install a fresh Windows 10 copy. Literally the fastest installation I've ever had. Sub 5-min from initial reboot to booting into a desktop. Felt fictional.

    Dell EqualLogic PS5500E iSCSI SAN ????

    It's a SAN. It's going to be running its own OS on a custom controller that you cannot replace. iSCSI is a protocol that allows you to present storage over the network as a [generally speaking] native disk; which you can then use as block storage. These are extremely power hungry and loud; I...

    Intel 900p Optane drives to be another paper launch?

    Just got a notification and an order through before they sold out again. These seem to be either in low stock, or high demand (which is surprising given the cost). Woohoo.

    Intel 900p Optane drives to be another paper launch?

    I'm keeping a close eye on availability and cant seem to find anyone taking preorders; auto-notify set on NewEgg but nothing yet. Really hoping this isnt a super-slow launch..

    Corsair Giveaway - Force Series™ GT 180GB Solid-State Hard Drive

    I need one to make my girlfriend's laptop feel brand new again. And also get laid. Only computer in the house without a corsair SSD in it. (If I actually win I will have to weigh the pros/cons of doing a RAID0 versus letting her use it..)
