I have the asus 144hz 1080p monitor, the vg248q. I just got a 780ti sc w/acx. I plan on getting another after I upgrade my monitor for sli. My question, is the pg278q worth the wait or is there a better ips panel out now worth getting at 1440p or maybe even 1600p for under $1000. The 120 hz(and I've heard it does 144 too) on the pg278q is very intriguing. But I do not know if I should wait or just go get something now.
Monitor Upgrade from Asus vg248 monitor to...?

thats the 4k one right? Sigh. I hate waiting.
I have an off topic question for you though. U pretty much have my same setup and I see you have your 3770k overclocked. My question is did you delid yours and reapply the TIM? I want to overclock my chip but I'm scared to delid. I have a hyper 212 as well.

The PG287Q is a 27" 1440p 120hz monitor. I wouldn't recommend a 4K monitor because you will need SLI 780 Ti's or Titan Blacks to be able to play on Ultra.
My 3770K is not delidded, but I am doing it this weekend. I got up to 4.7 GHz stable, but the temps were a little higher than I'd like. I bought some CLU and some thin razers to try it out this weekend. I'm scared too, but I'm just going to do it.
Very well I shall wait for the monitor I hope we hear something by early May.
I've never OCed a CPU but I am about to do it today or tommorrow. My goal is 4.5 or 4.6 but I assume when I hit those numbers and see the performance gain it will only urge me to go ahead and delid as well.
Well I overclocked but i think I got the raw end of the silicon lottery. I could get to 4.5 but I needed 1.345v to keep it stable. temps at that were entirely too high 93-99 on the cores. I clocked it down to 4.4 at 1.280(cpu-z recordes 1.296 with llc on extreme). temps 70-79. I'm staying at that. I've read people either have a card like mine that can cool higher voltage without delidding or cards like yours that hit higher temps at lower volts but overclock better. I'f I delid or watercool I'm sure i could hit 4.5, really have no desire to go higher as this is my first cpu overclock ever. Thank you for the help Kekoh I appreciate it.
