    The PC Hardware Thread

    I've decided my next purchase is going to be a screen. Help me find one.

    Preferably one that can do 1440p.

    The last time I bought a monitor I ended up spending about 3 weeks researching it and ordering one from Belgium.

    My tactic has long been:

    1. Decide how much I want to spend
    2. Buy whatever BenQ you can afford

    It hasn't failed me yet.

    I'm using this at the moment.

    Also using it for my PS4 pro until I actually buy a 4k TV with HDR.

    Looking at buying this. As it’s impossible to buy a 3070 on its own. Any parts of it look like I might get fucked over? https://www.digitec.ch/en/s1/product...sd-pc-14594412

    As far as I can see it doesn't list what a lot of the parts actually are, which I would find more than a little worrying.

    Yeah but like the PSU just says "650w", it doesn't tell you which PSU it is. Doesn't say what the RAM is, doesn't even say what the motherboard is.

    Unless I'm missing something?
