These GPU prices

I think Acer was talking about a 144hz 4k monitor, but it still hasn't come out

Asus also has one in the works too I think. The PG27UQ. 4K 144hz, HDR and G-Sync

Man that 65" 144hz 4K monitor has me quietly setting my pennies to the side.

Hmm, today is the last day I can return/replace my Dell monitor. I say replace because since I bought it back in November, occasionally the screen will blackout for one second. Some days it does it very often within minutes of each other, some days/nights I don't think it does it. I tried changing the cable, ruling out any other device connected to the GPU(receiver/TV) and any other cables.

I found a video of someone with the same issue claiming they fixed it by cleaning their system with DDU and drivers.

I dont get why people try to solve a problem with something they bought new, I'd let the manufacturer handle that

Wish I would I have known this a couple of months ago

because the problem may not be hardware related. Hence why I'm trying the potential solution now and if it persists I'll go through the manufacturer. So far so good.

You can't go wrong with Samsung Evos. I've had a few in the past. Pro is better, but not really that big of a difference

Better in which way?

Its 100 dollar difference

I mean, to me, it isn't worth $100 more. If you desperately need the fastest SSD, then you go with the Pro. For average, normal, day to day use you probably couldn't tell the difference. You're better off getting more SSD space then paying for, what is like a 2 second difference, with the pro

Thinking about switching from my Ryzen 1600 to that 8600k. Should I wait until Ryzen 2 is released though
