Will this all work ok, for my son-I know nothing!

It’s the Rolls Royce of monitors, and the Bentley of systems. He’s a lucky lad 👍

i haven't bought it yet still needs to be good at school but well see

on other monitors would he be able to multi task

The G9 is far superior to other monitors with Picture in Picture. Multitasking has less to do with gpu, more with the CPU. The CPU you have selected is an absolute beast.

thank you for your help and advice much appreciated

what is better nvme or ssd because my son says nvme was faster so could he just use 2 nvme drives instead of ssd

 

[SpyderTracks]

Just to chime in, NVMEs are far superior for primary drives or game drives, but as a secondary storage drive for storing data, HDD would always be recommended:

1. Data doesn’t benefit from faster read times of an SSD

2. Price is excessive for SSD if just for data that’s not benefitting from speeds

3. SSD’s have a downside that when they fail, they just fail from one second to the next. There’s almost never any warning. HDD’s however deteriorate sector by sector so you get warning signs before the whole drive fails, so you can safely migrate your data to a new drive should you need to.

to store games
would he only need 2 tb off nvme for that

 

[sam123]

As I understood it from earlier in the thread, was your son primarily going to be using it for gaming and streaming?

yes and also recording

So he’s not storing any work documents or video files or anything at all? Just games?
