Going round in circles trying to find a monitor with for my sons PC

30" or 32", IPS, <5ms, 2560*1440 or better, gsync for 2070 card

prefer not curved, no red bezzel just a plain black

budget as low as possible but up to 700ish

I have a DELL U3011 so something that looks as good would be great

I haven't bought the 2070 yet so I could go the vega 65 route...but...I've had thee AMD cards in my life and they have all been a disappointment...last one was 15 years ago though.

My power supply might be an issue as well...and my i5 4690k....before I know it Im buying the wee guy another whole PC...

32 is fine

Lets put it another way then...Ewans PC at the minute is

i5 4690k @ 3.5...made fundamental error and bought some crap mobo that doesn't overclock..doh
970gtx overclocked and still great at 1920*1080
DELL E2314H

Scores about 2000 in heaven bench

I was thinking 4790K CPU off ebay...but they are going for 200+ so im swaying there as well now

30"+ monitor but thats looking helluva pricey

2070 RTX or whatever you get for around 400 for mr NVidia

So maybe a grand of fairy dust on his machine

Now im seriously considering getting a good 1920*1080 monitor and leaving it at that...only problem there is the wee guy just loves the 30" dell monitor so I get stuck on the 2nd machine...lol

My 6 core 12 thread xeon 5860 @ 4.2 from 10 years ago is still working wonders as is my 980ti...scored 3500 in the heaven bench mark today...

Just looked in the box and its a 750 WATT Corsaire TX power supply...should be ok to go the dreaded AMD route...?
That monitor is out of stock...I like the look of the HP OMEN HP 32 Quad-HD but its out of stock with HP as well..350 for it

Should we go mental and go with the vega 64?
Im ok with this sort of spend, I was playing quake live against Ewan...whos 7 by the way...and it ended 47 to 50...great moment...I was trying so hard....frantic stuff!
