Hey Friends!

I am looking to get a new monitor. I was planning on probably getting a 27" 2560x1440 or 2560x1600 Korean monitor to overclock.

I was wondering whether or not there is a noticeable difference in a 10-bit monitor vs an 8-bit monitor. I will not be doing any kind of photo editing or anything it will purely be for gaming/watching movies.

Here is my rigs specs. Let me know if I will have trouble powering this type of display with my current set-up. I will likely add a second GPU in the near future. Hopefully, my 750watt psu can handle all this.

Do you know anything about the korean monitors. There are so many of them, which makes it very hard to chose what to get.
