I am a bit of a noob so need some help with specifics so I have some questions to ask
1. I know little in terms of mobo choice so basically I have picked a cheap one. I cannot really tell the difference between them. I need my kobo to be sli capable for the future, so is it? Anything else I should be careful of??
2.Monitor!!!!!!!! I am really struggling with this trying to keep cost low but not buying something useless. I need 2 of them the one I've picked I am not certain of. I am looking for 5ms or below but have heard some say I need a high hertz
3. Also I have heard an amd set might be cheaper. Is this a good idea or not?
Thanks for taking the time to read my post
