How could I miss this one?EPIC FREE GAME:-

How could I miss this one?
If anyone is still interested: apparently the "vault" was closed for me and it looked like the game couldn't be redeemed anymore... But I could still redeem it for free by searching for it in the store.
Strange. 🤔
Nah, Mindfactory has always been heavily skewed towards AMD. Apart from that, the 10th Gen Intel CPUs with a new socket have just been released, so there was no point in buying the older Intel CPUs in the past few months.Other news:-
In the PC builders market - AMD are outselling Intel 87% - 13% (Sales figures from a German company - But fully expect this to be true across the globe)
This is a massive swing, and seems that despite what Intel claim that everyone will still buy their CPU's due to it's pure gaming performance, the reality is everyone is now buying Ryzen's, due to the massive performance gap in everything else.
I will certainly be jumping ship at the end of the year when the new AMD chips are released.
Does anyone have an opinion on monitors?
For the past 2 years, I have owned a 4K 60Hz Freesync monitor.
However recently I have been thinking to ditch the 4K monitor and get a 1440p monitor with 240Hz, as although I can tell the difference in 4K gaming there isn't that much when compared to 1440p.
I recently watched a video showing the difference between FPS, and they stated that it makes a massive difference to have higher FPS in games that I play.
So I want to know from the guys who have a 144Hz monitor or above, does it make that much difference to you?
Would you rather have a 144Hz 1440p monitor of 60Hz 4K monitor?
The monitor I am thinking of purchasing is this one:-
But I am unsure whether to get the 27" or 32" as believe 32" would be too big./

144 Hz is a Gamebreaker for me, I would never ever go back to 60hz. It's such a big difference, everything is so much smoother with 144hz & Gsync. I'm having the same Dell Monitor as @Chuny (I suggested it to him in the past). I would prefer this 1440p144hz Monitor over 4k60 every day.Does anyone have an opinion on monitors?

Thanks Chuny, I know you had a 144HZ monitor, so thought you would be a good person to ask.
I mainly play games and currently have a 28" screen, so still debating the 32" model as when your thinking of spending £450 what is an extra £50.
The monitor I am thinking is the new Samsung Gaming monitors:-

240Hz 27 or 32", Gsync...
I was just starting to think although I like having a 4K monitor 60FPS locked isn't really that great.

I have pre-ordered the 32" version..
That way can tell if it is too big or not, as the monitor is curved and online people have stated that with the monitor being curved would look smaller.
You pre-ordered the G7?
Yes, pre-ordered should arrive beginning of July.
Thought it be best to get the monitor now, might be a mistake as it is brand new and no reviews available.
But given the specs of the monitor it sounds very impressive and even more so for the money.
RTX 3080 is due around September time, around the same time as Cyber Punk.
I will be getting a PS5 this year, although it does seem pointless.
The games will just be PS4 games with better graphics, with what some developers are saying and other rumours the PS5 is roughly the same power as a PC with an RTX 2060 with NVMe SSD.
And quite a bit short of the Xbox.
But the PS5 has the games, multi format games I will always use my PC.
Better graphics, higher frames, faster loading.
But I also feel I have to buy a PS5, as you cant get the naughty dog games on PC and some other exclusives which make the PS a worthy buy.
In your situation, I would probably upgrade the GFX card Nvidia are stating a massive performance increase and they said the 3060 will outperform the 2080 in RTX performance.
You got a decent enough monitor so probably not worth the upgrade.
The only reason I am doing my monitor is because I cant believe how much money I am saving at the moment being stuck at home.
The reason I'm thinking about upgrading my monitor is because I'd like a 4K HDR one.
Although I don't think those features can be appreciated as much on a 27'' screen.
Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I'd like to check out some reviews before thinking about getting it.
I was thinking of either getting the new RTX 2080 + new monitor
OR... a PS5.
HDR on Windows is still a huge clusterfuck with abysmal support. Don't let it be a priority when deciding on a new display anytime soon.
BEST software for update drivers?
I wonder how many people use TV as their monitor, i heard that latest sony x900h does very well for gaming.. not sure if they support 1440p though.. samsung qled does.
This tv can go bright above 600 nits.. you can burn your eyes in HDR..
I wonder how many people use tv as their display i read that lg's oled, sony x900h, or samsung qled does very good job for gaming @120hz and talk about >600 nits for HDR to burn some eyes..
