Get a GTX 970 so you can be VR ready just in case you want to step into that world.

The Audio Technicas, you must be an audiophile :ahh:

I see some people using beats on their PC setups :scusthov:
I've been using audio technica since 2007 before they blew up and came pretty mainstream - I think mkbhd had a bit to do with it.

Idk, these m50X aren't as good as the original m50s. I had the originals back in the day and it was fukking fire. But these new detached ones aren't as good imo and it's really disappointing. It's too late to return to Amazon, but I wish I went with the sennheiser 598.

Still got my purple and gold audio Tech ath-ad700 from 8 years ago. Best headphones for gaming and still going strong.

My budget like 1250 if you not busy mind providing a feasible build inshallah :ahh:
Skylake 6700K and GTX 970 is what you should try to build around.

Not sure if you need a Monitor, Windows or whatever else.

Every time I try to open windows explorer from the button on my taskbar it tries to load, freezes for a few seconds, then looks like it restarts explorer and closes the window. Anyone know what the problem is?

I can get in from any other folder icon, just not the one on the taskbar that gives me quick access.
