    PCSPECIALIST Photo editing monitor

    It looks like the Dell Ultrasharp U2717D might be a good option for your needs, as it has: - An IPS panel for accurate colour reproduction and good viewing angles. - A thin bezel to make viewing more comfortable. - 1440p resolution on a 27" display, which should look great with regards to pixel...

    PCSPECIALIST Build for rendering and gaming at 1080p (possibly 1440p)

    Looking for a system that will give me good rendering performance and gaming at 1080p max at frame rates of 60 or higher.

    PCSPECIALIST 8700k or 8700?

    I’m definitely on a budget here and I don’t really plan on overclocking. What are the benefits of the i7 8700k in comparison to the 8700 that means I need it with a GTX 1060 3gb and a Z370 motherboard? I can go without if it isn’t worth it and I can save money from buying the 8700. Thanks!

    PCSPECIALIST 1080p Gaming/some rendering work: Thoughts and suggestions?

    So I’m going to be doing loads of gaming and quite a bit of rendering and 3D modelling on this PC, my old one did alright, but was based off majorly old hardware. Now it’s time for an upgrade! What’s your opinion on whether I would need liquid cooling in this build (e.g. h60 or h80i)? Thank you...

    PCSPECIALIST Thinking of buying a new motherboard - SLI?

    Is this motherboard compatible with SLI? Gigabyte Z370P D3 Socket 1151 Coffee Lake DDR4 ATX I want GTX 950 SLI, is this possible?

    PCSPECIALIST SLI worth?

    On the whole, considering how many games can actually run SLI, whether it actually increases performance in most games and whether it's necessary for 4K60 gaming, would you say that SLI is worth it? I plan to have SLI with two 1080 Ti's, how credible would this be?

    PCSPECIALIST Spec for 4K60 gaming and rendering, modelling, etc.

    Here's the build, it's for gaming at 4K and near/at 60fps and also for using modelling and rendering programs such as Maya and Unreal Engine 4. Thanks! If you're wondering why I only have a second monitor, it's because the 4K monitor I want for the PC is mostly undecided. I'm considering 144hz...

    PCSPECIALIST New gaming pc for 4k monitor

    This 1440p monitor is pretty good, but for outside your budget by a bit.

    PCSPECIALIST Reponse times and their effect on gaming?

    There is a really nice monitor I want, 1440p, IPS, 165Hz refresh rate and topped off with G-Sync. However, it has a 4ms response time, how much will this make a difference. I'm currently using a 2ms response time to game, although I don't game professionally, though I do like Overwatch...

    PCSPECIALIST Build for 1440p gaming and Unreal Engine

    I believe this is the same build as before - is there anything you can recommend? It would be good if I could decrease the price, but not the power by too much, I still want to run Unreal Engine well and get 1440p max on most games (or all, not sure).This was previously a 4K60 build, but now...
