Monitor advice please + amusing feedback post @newegg.ca
Posted: Mon Mar 04, 2013 5:29 pm
Hello fellow gerbils,
I am in the process of U/G my entire system and have decided to go the LEGO way - one piece at a time.
From:
I've removed the the graphics card 'cos a graphics card breakdown list on Tom's listed that card *well* below Intel's HD4000. Since I'm mainly playing Warcraft right now that gets me by. I'm using this as a general purpose/gaming rig this suits me just fine.
Next up in no particular order:
Specifically thinking about the ASUS VS229H-P $154.99 'cos it's on sale.
I'm throwing the door open to all comments, advice and criticisms.
...and as promised...
(taken from the feedback section for that very monitor)
Cons: Stand is a little wobbly. I notice it if I pay attention, but it's not an issue while gaming as I'm not paying attention to the monitor.
That just made me laugh.

- Quiet case (Antec p280, NZXT H2, Fractal Designs Define R4, Corsair Obsidian 550D)
Gaming Mouse (probably SteelSeries Cataclysm 15 Button)
Gaming K/B (No Idea yet - but Cherry switches *may/will* be involved)
Video Card (likely nVidia - unless AMD releases an U/G to the memory controller)
and of course monitor.
