0 regrets. It's probably the best viewing experience I've had on a TV.

This may be a somewhat dumb question, but with a monitor that only supports 10 bits on 120 hz (it's the AW3821DW), do I have to specify this refresh rate and colour setting via the Nvidia control setting for auto-HDR on Windows 11 to work to its full potential? Or does it handle this by itself?

I actually have a question if you don't mind - the 990 isn't an SSD I see come up much - is it because the smallest size offered is 1TB as opposed to 500GB? I saw some complaints about reliability issues but the same came up for the 980 (from what I read, firmware updates were released to...

Around 2 years ago but my brother is buying that one off me to replace an older build.

Hi I'm considering getting a new PC and would like some advice on the below build. Intended use is primarily gaming, and I tend to play a variety of games, including 4x, RPGs as well as some MMO gaming. Also intend to use it for WFH purposes but I don't do anything that requires a particularly...

The card which came installed was a Gigabyte gaming OC 8G rev 1.0.

Arrived today! Very pleased with it, I'll try put some pics up tomorrow. This is the final spec I went with. Pairing it with this which is due to arrive soon: https://www.dell.com/en-uk/shop/alienware-38-curved-gaming-monitor-aw3821dw/apd/210-axqm/monitors-monitor-accessories

Any budget/specific requirements?

Hoping by the time we get to November it's a bit better at least.

Mine's arriving on Monday, and was completed after 21 WD.

Ugh and of course now the 3080 has come down quite a bit when I try amend the build, as it goes into production. 🤣 I'd be tempted if not for the long wait.

Interesting that they're losing the signature curve.

Much like bonny Scotland. But I can't complain, I prefer the cooler temperatures most days. Several years in Cyprus and South Africa helped me appreciate it more. :p

Day 19 and its gone into build. I'll update on what brand it is when I know.

Out of curiosity, is the monitor capable of running 3440x1440 @240hz? From what I read it can support a bunch of different resolutions but that one has to be input custom and therefore runs it at 120hz without HDR. But it's from threads from a while ago; has it changed?

18 working days here. Same, my finances are in a steadily better shape, so the PC is too. :P

I was looking at the Acer X34GS myself (itself apparently a very good monitor) but I get work discounts for Dell which put the AW381DW very very close to it for direct purchase from Dell and I'm tempted to go for it since reviews for it seem to be near unanimously good - I know this thread was...

Grats! FF7 intergrade looks amazing on it.

The Nari has come down in price so I'll give it a look.

I see. I might leave it for when cards in that bracket are more readily available then. I haven't looked much into its successor- has there been any word on what sort of spec it'll boast?
