i refuse to believe that you did not know this.
how many pc's have you built?

there is literally no way to hide gpu power cables.
you can tie them back some how but gpu cables are gonna gpu cable.

I did know, but with my 750 corsair case I could hide most of it. But with the Evolve it's so open. I guess it's the price you pay

Good airflow though

Neither Windows 8 or Windows 10 look half as good as Windows 7

I don't know how long I can stick with 7 before it's considered outdated

something right in between.

also i have large hands so i don't want anything small

OK, larger mouse. If you palm grip look at a Razer Deathadder or (even larger) Steelseries Rival. A little more flash and better manufacturing look at a G402, though it's a bit flatter and narrower.

If you want something ambidextrous your options are limited. Look at the Zowie ZA series. I think the ZA11 is the biggest. The FK's are flatter. You may also look at a Nixeus Revel but that may be small for you.

If I had to blindly buy one for you? I'd buy the Deathadder. It's probably the most common mouse and it's usually for medium/larger hands. EDIT: The outgoing models are real cheap now too. If I were buying a large moue for myself? The G402 for it's build and technical superiority. If you had bear paws for hands and that is a serious trait to keep in mind? The Rival for it's larger size.

Windows 10 is better and you will have to jump relatively soon if you are a gamer.

I would go with the G402 or G502 over the deathadder.

All are solid, but I might be a Logitech fanboy when it comes to mice.

I got a question about monitors. I keep hearing about stuttering and screen tearing. How bad is it if you get a 144hz monitor but without G-Sync? Would you guys recommend just buying a G-Sync or will the prices go down later.

These are the two monitors I'm looking at currently.

Acer GN246HL Bbid 24-Inch 3D Gaming Display (144Hz Refresh Rate)


Acer Predator XB241H bmipr 24-inch Full HD 1920x1080 NVIDIA G-Sync Display, 144Hz, 2 x 2w speakers, HDMI & DP

I switched over to a G502 from a deathadder and never looked back

I just checked the value of my car (since I don't need one in the DC area), and my computer is worth more than my car (2008 Mazda 3)

Just uber/lyfting everywhere? That is what most people I know do in NYC.

It is so freeing to just be able to get out of the car and not worry about parking spots or anything. Can be pricey, but I am sure you can swing that.

Yeah, that's what I plan to do. Having a car is convenient though... I might just keep it (it's paid off, obviously).

However, I never use it where I live now. I don't know if it's worth selling or keeping. I'll probably keep it and pay for the parking at my apartment. Sometimes you gotta go to the suburbs (Best Buy, Micro Center, girls, etc.)
