Like the look of the LG screen, did you decide not to go with a 4K screen then?

I don't know what i want yet for my new build, was thinking 4K, but then a mate said to get a LG wide or 3x 1440p screens.
Iv never had a 3 screen setup because i didn't like the bezels, however the bezels are getting smaller and smaller now so im more tempted to try.

Hard decision to make without seeing some setups in person :(
 
Yeah I need a title change really:p
Love my LG its a very good size for me coming from a 27" dell monitor. Gaming on it is amazing with the super wide screen, its harder for enemies to sneak up on me;)
Doesn't matter how small the bezels are it would bother me, I think super wide is the way to go.

Here its is its finally done. Its kinda tidy for me but I don't care I have no ocd:D
Ive ran a handful of games, mainly the ones my last computer struggled with.
Crysis 3 is now perfect, I noticed no slowdown and that's at max settings with no vysnc on.
Arma 3 I had a go on the grand battle scenario, it played very well except when I go about halfway and I think even my cpu struggled with it.
BF4 has gone back up to ultra settings;)

I ran 3dmark firestrike (extreme mode) and scored 8513, not sure how good that is but the program said it done well:p
Played rome 2 with all settings on, apart from the obvious performance difference I couldn't really tell any difference in graphics.

A special mention about the powersupply, I wanted to show a pic of its white glow, but you cant really see it in this pic. If I remember ill do it at night;)

Also this computer is so quiet, you can barely hear the fans especially on the h105.

I haven't attempted to overclock just yet, as to be frank I don't need to. I have turned on the xmp profile for my memory. From what I have seen even a novice wont have much trouble playing about in the bios. Its very user friendly and has a lot of information clearly laid out to you.

Still cant get over the size of it, when I come into my room or wake up in the morning I laugh and say its huge.

Edit: finally put the side window on, as I had to play about with a couple wires. I could only turn my pc on at the motherboard. Awesome little feature having a power button on a motherboard. Also missed two fan wires on the front so wired them in, I still think the pc is very quiet.
