    From an ergonomic standpoint you are supposed to be eye level with the top of your monitor in your sitting position. Food for thought when setting up your computers.

    Yea I don't have music playing much at my PC, usually stick to game/video audio if anything, but I still mainly use the speakers over my headset as in the last two months or so, it started to get really uncomfortable during extended use.

    I had them placed in front before I got these monitors, but doing that now is kinda awkward.

    Current setup
    GPU: R9 290x Sapphire
    CPU: I7 4770k at stock because I'm lazy and can't be arsed to buy/insert a new fan
    RAM: HyperX Predator 2400mhz running at 1833 16gb
    PSU: From my old setup, a Cooler Master Silent Pro 700W
    HDD/SSD: HDD is old 1TB at 300mbps, and SSD is a Samsung SSD 840 EVO 120GB 540/410
    MOBO: Z87X UD5-TH

    Using a MX518 because it's awesome and I will keep it as long as it doesn't break (7 years so far). Keyboard came with my old computer and got so used to it now that it's just not getting replaced as of now.
    G930 headset, got it a month ago and love it so far

    Pics(Hopefully)

    My desktop and laptop are out of date to be quite honest. I'm currently saving up for a Macbook Air, not for gaming, but for DJing reasons.

    Desktop:
    i5 2500K
    16 gigs Corsair Vengeance
    250 gb SSD VisionTek Racer
    3 TB HDD
    1 TB HDD
    1 TB HDD ( I did a lot of video editing :P)
    msi r7770 gpu
    Razer Blackwidow Ultimate and Molten MMO mouse
    Dell Monitor + wallpaper of my oldest kitty Keoki :3
    cheap walmart chair and random wall art my BF found at a garage sale

    Once this desktop bites the dust, I'm probably going to stick with laptop only-- so I don't have any plans to upgrade my desktop.

    Well the high HyperX memories are in the way for a noctua dh14 (really only one I looked at ) and water seems better in every given way, except for the breaking part lol

    Perhaps a NH-U14S would do? Its smaller but still a very decent cooler.

    I'll give you a cookie if you manage to break the h100 at installation. It's literally impossible to damage unless you try to mount it with a sledge hammer.

    The radiatorfins are easily damaged though. Also, AIO coolers work better on Haswell.

    If you can install a CPU without breaking pins you should have no problems with an AIO.

    Try looking at the NH-D15 same performance as the DH-14 if not better. Noctua acutally cut part of the bottom fin stack on both sides so you can now fit high profile ram. Should check it out or like Zealo the NH- U14s works perfectly fine too.

    Ah yes, I remember watching a movie about the D15 one, but I wasn't sure if my RAM would fit anyways :/ If I knew for sure, then I'd probably order one
