£££ BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND DEALS!! £££

Does anyone know the panel size of the LG 29WK600-W 29"?
Wondering if it would look odd next to my old Dell U2311.

Bookmark this site, it's excellent for that question and I use it all the time to give me a size guide;

He also said we won't get Haribo because of the discount. And if he runs low on Gigabyte 1080Tis he'd let us have a Zotac 1080Ti but he'd do it for 495.99 & give us a packet of space invaders instead of Haribo

That isn't true Gibbo is doing everyone on the forum a 1080Ti for <£500 he just forgot to add it yet

You're taking the ray-trace.

@Gibbo
My Gigabyte 1080Ti, the one you planned on selling to me for £499.99 is missing. This one
https://www.overclockers.co.uk/giga...dr5x-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-19h-gi.html

he wont sell a 1080ti for £500, if he did id buy them all and sell them in Switzerland for a nice profit.

 

[LoadsaMoney]

The 1080p ones are the only ones worth buying, as thats what Nvidias new RTX series is aimed at

 

[JessieD]

I cannot grasp the disrespect given by certain forum members to a man who has devoted his long weekend to giving us Gigabyte (or Zotac) 1080Ti's at a price that will enable us not to sell our cats to a brothel.
Only last week I paid my respects (left some Monster Munch & a half a Caramac bar) at his shrine. The one behind the rough Asda, on the estate.

I really wouldn’t mind a new monitor, what is a better trade off... 1080p 144hz or 1440p 60hz? I lack knowledge in the monitor sector.

I wouldn't be buying a 1080P monitor now, personally.

I'd be going for 1440P @ 120+MHz.

I agree, but as it’s a hobby purely for gaming which I use two maybe three times a week. I really don’t want to be spending £400+ on a monitor. However I do want to get the most out of my card.

In that case I'd be getting that widescreen freesync LG for £230.

If it helps, I play all sorts of games including online FPS where fast response is essential and I went from a 24" TN 1080p@144Hz monitor to an AOC 31.5" VA 1440p@75Hz Freesync monitor and I'm more than happy with my choice But I guess it depends what you want/need. I personally couldnt go back to 60Hz which is horrible to use now, but 75Hz is fine for me. I only paid £200 for the AOC and can't believe how good it is for that money - sure, if you spend more you'll get better, but bargains to be had

If the LG ultrawide mentioned does 75Hz I'd consider that too. But 1920x1080p or 60Hz are so meh now

Of the two V64's (Powercolour and Gigabyte) which would run quietest at idle and which would be quietest at load? Thanks.

Powercolor. Its just got a better cooler. Even Gigabyte admitted they put minimum effort into their OEM Vega card.

monitors are a long term investment. You can get good deals sometimes.
There was a b stock here 4k 60 ips gsync for 370 pnce, and I picked up a pre order 144hz 1440p va pannel for 220 recently.
Personally I'd wait for masmass deals and get the best you can because the computer graphics are only as good as the display panel

Tah, I think I’ll hold out for a 1440/144hz panel.
