    PCSPECIALIST What 4K 27 inch monitor to go for - thoughts?

    To work primarily with NVIDIA® RTX 3070 - 8.0GB. So G Sync or adaptive, 4K good refresh rate. Ideally height adjustable, not too heavy as some can be 9kg plus. Could be space for 28 inch if perfect spec.

    PCSPECIALIST NETWORK CARD - KILLER Wi-Fi 6 AX1650x

    Not directly but internet speed can be affected by a lower connection speed to exchange which means a lower speed from the router for both ethernet & wifi connections. Also a not 100% performing network card could meaan a lower speed. Just good to make sure all in my hands is prefect.

    PCSPECIALIST NETWORK CARD - KILLER Wi-Fi 6 AX1650x
