Upgrading monitors.

Amazons is jacked, asking 330 for it before tax, newegg is cheaper at that point for 279.

My only advice is to do your best to avoid USPS for shipping unless you don’t mind extended delays. Medications that usually take 3 days are taking over a week to show up. I would imagine pc parts take lower priority.

USPS shouldn't really have any way of knowing what is in the packages they're shipping unless it requires specific instructions (like being refrigerated or something), so it's possible that they're just in general over capacity at the moment.
Or maybe they're just prioritizing things that make them the most money. You'd have to ask a logistics manager at USPS and I don't know any.

OP, what games do you actually play.

Higher frame rates are defo nice but 144 Hz is hard to achieve on that hardware but will depend on the game.

If you play mainly shooters or games at a high level, then a high refresh screen is the way to go.

If you mainly play wow, then a bigger screen with a quality display even at 60- 75 hz will be an upgrade, I will always say games like WoW and mmos really lend them selves lots more to a bigger screen then a 144 hz, by bigger screen I mean 32 inch.

If you have the space?? Is that really the question to ask lol Is there even hardware available right now to drive those that wont be a terrible experience?

I'm not sure what you are trying to say, I have 3x 27" 4k monitors atm.

[Kagthul]

I'm not sure what you are trying to say, I have 3x 27" 4k monitors atm.

so you're implying that you get acceptable frame rates across 3 4k monitors? Sounds like some good drugs you have three

I mean I get 60+ fps from each monitor, so yes?

I use them individually, 1 for gaming, 1 for browsing and 1 for strats.

3 x MSI AG32C Monitors

Nice setup!

Also a huge fan of the MSI monitors. I picked up the G24C when it was on sale over Christmas and I've never been happier!

[DeltrusDisc]

Anything that's new and on a legacy socket is not a good combo.

There really is nothing "not good" about the 9700k... especially if he can get a deal on it.

Wait... those monitors are 32" but only do 1080p? D:

Noooooooooooooo...

It's useless. OC'd 10600KF is cheaper and better.

LOL... Id rather get a 1440p 144hz super ultrawide, and use an ontopreplica or deskpins app if i want to watch videos or browse while gaming. I think its way more flexible that way. 3x 4k monitor is just not possible for surround gaming if i want to play games with an extended field of view.

I guess that the difference between us, I have the monitors for convenience not necessarily all gaming, but can still game on whichever one I want.

Yes, but in the case of someone already having a 9700K, it isn't worth upgrading it.

He doesnt. He was looking into getting a combo with a mobo.

144hz gaming monitor is a perfect choice or not

[Thunderball]

144hz gaming monitor is a perfect choice or not

Depends. You need to have your system put out a sufficient FPS for it to have any effect. You also the game to be optimized sufficiently enough to be able to run at that FPS. Mostly the multiplayer FPS games are usually optimized for high FPS. If you play those or some other games that you're use will be able to run at that FPS then sure. Otherwise there's resolution and panel quality at your disposal to enhance your gaming experience.

So tried the ED273UR from costco was okayish, but text was blurry and didnt really enjoy the va panel, ended up taking it back and decided to upgrade the computer instead with a corsair 750w, Ryzen 3600, Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WI-FI) ATX AM4 Motherboard. Using my old case, ram which is only 2400 but will upgrade it later, already spent 566 on those 3, is that decent or no? Coming from intel i3 9100f

You don't need an X570 board for a 3600. You can save some money by going down to a b450 or b550.
I'd also really suggest getting some faster RAM. Ryzen likes fast RAM with low CAS latency. Some 3600C16 is the standard

I was thinking for future proof for the 4000 series so i wouldnt have to keep upgrading

and it would only come around $60 difference so not much to worry about, work is real close to the house so $20 gets me for 2 weeks. Still have 663 left

According to this, it'll be useful
https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Ry....464426.0.html

AMD's Robert Hallock has confirmed that the upcoming AMD Ryzen 4000 Zen 3 processors will be compatible with Socket AM4 as long as the motherboard features an X570 or B550 chipset. Zen 3 will not support older chipsets owing to lower space on the EEPROM of these motherboards. Future prospects of Socket AM4 depend on the industry's I/O innovation.

Found this too though so idk but its a beta bios so ehhhhhhhh
https://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-ca....466045.0.html

AMD has now clarified that it will enable owners of X470 and B550 chipset-based motherboards to upgrade to Zen 3. However, this upgrade would be an opt-in irreversible "Beta" BIOS upgrade that would remove compatibility with some of the older Ryzen processor in order to make space for new Ryzen 4000 Zen 3 Vermeer AGESA code.

Reading that makes me feel like taking it all back and waiting lol.
