Got the first G9 last year on Cyber Monday, and vowed i would get another. Well, cyber monday came again, and it happened. Now trying a few arms before having to drop $$$ for the Ergatron. I was actually overwhelmed fir the first few hours with all the real estate. It will go to good use more...
same here. have the hardware and laptops, but you are adking for current gen hardware at 5 years ago pricing. good luck. if you increase your budget to 3-400 each, hit me up.
I grabbed the corsair one for my PSU. the one that came with my 4070TI would not stay connected. kept disconnecting and losing the GPU. very frustrating. No disconnects with the new cable.

I bit the bullet and bought one. Picked up the MSI 3X OC 4070 TI. Reasoning was, on AMD 5600X/ASUS X570/2070 Super my newly purchased Samsung g9 49" curved was cooking the 2070 Super when playing MW2. Was trying to hold out for the 4080, but just can't pay over 1K for a gpu. this $800 was...
3 Lightly used 27" gaming moinitors bought from newegg in Jan 22 and used until May 2022 when i purchased a Samsung 49" ultrawide. The three piece was amazing for gaming being bezel-less, or stand alone was a great setup as well...
I was not even shopping for a new monitor, i needed a new phone and went thru Samsung direct. The G9 was on sale for 999.00 and they offered 0% financing for two years, so i said fuck it you only live once. now i need a new GPU to really flex it as the 2070TI is struggling....waiting for the...
Posted my last set up here a while ago, upgraded to a triple 27" 165hz setup for about six months, then finally pulled the trigger on the 49" Odyssey G9. What an amazing monitor, and no issues (flickering/ghosting, black levels) as of yet. About two months in of ownership.
Looking to complete my sons first gaming PC to get him off PS5. Need GPU to complete it, but not paying crazy prices right now for GPU. Anyone want to trade for a gorgous Dell 13.3 touch screen laptop? I have two Dell 9370's, plus my main MSI gaming laptop for travel, and do not need this Dell...
if you are looking for a true chrome/nickel finish, then go with the bright silver. the sparkling black is a shiny finish, but will have a black tint to it (think of black chrome wheels). The bright silver will be like a true chrome finish. I have a few spare Bitrspower bright silver fittings...

I had a hardware review site back in the early 2000's, and ran thru the gamut from extreme air cooling, to multi loop h2o, pelt and phase change. Then just stopped because i had all this cool shit and never got to enjoy it since i was either building/benching/tearing down/or writing. So this was...
