Hmm...it would be cool to have two predators, but the curve would fukk up the placement on my computer desk. I already have a very large desk, so I really can’t go larger in desk size. As a result, I wouldn’t be able to position a curved monitor correctly, if I want to keep the 2 monitor setup (which I definitely want to keep. Going seamlessly from 1440p, 144hz to 4K 60hz is awesome, and the two 32” monitors cost less than the $2K 27” Predator 4K, 144hz monitor [which also has a 5inch smaller screen than I’m used to]).

So, I’d say, I’m still happy with my monitors. Once they come out with a 32” Predator 4K, 144hz, I’ll trade up. But for now, I don’t regret my purchases.

Just making sure, I knew you wanted another Acer monitor.

I was thinking, have we even had one proper steam sale this year? I don’t think so :patrice:

I got like 15 games on my wishlist that I’d love to get 50% off or more. Maybe it’ll come in June :jbhmm:

Man graphics cards are outta control right now, I wanna upgrade but god damn :gucci:
Well, it’s best to wait until the next gen of Nvidia cards come out late summer or fall. If you want one of those, just make sure you setup an alert and buy the first second they go on sale. The new 1180/1170 will sell out in a minute.

If you want the current gen of cards, they’ll also be cheaper when the new cards come out. You should be able to find a 1080ti for cheaper than an 1180 (and supposedly it will only have 5% weaker performance).

I also wanted to pick up one of them g sync monitors :patrice:do you have one? Worth the jump? I value buttery smooth gameplay above all else.
