Those seem pretty sweet for multi monitor setups, are they in real life as well?

UltraSharp master race!

Got my hands on a limited edition copy of Dark souls 2: into the light comic, signed. Only two thousand physical copies of this out there.

I buy weird stuff.

It's a good screen so far. My 780 is struggling with it a little bit though, but I bought this to force myself to get around to upgrading my PC anyway.

I see! I did the same

Surprised to see a 24", seems like everyone is going super size and ultra wide these days!

[dux]

It's 25 inches I dunno if the 24 in the name relates to it's actual size. I just measured it with a tape measure to be sure.

25" is pretty odd, don't recall ever seeing it sold. They used to do still 23" ages ago.

Usually the name indicates the size but hey, the more the better  important thing is that it's good and you enjoy it. I was just surprised cos it seems everyone goes for 27+

This is da one I ordered https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00P6O3YYO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It is infact a UH2515H and I'm an idiot. It helps if I READ.

What spec did you go for?

Invested in some nice audio recording mics and preamps, planning some tutorials 

 

AKG 214 mic with a Roland quad capture interface

I5-6600k @4.3GHz, an asus z170i motherboard, an r9 fury from Sapphire, 16GB of ram. The CPU is air cooled by a noctua medium sized cooler (I'd have to look through boxes to remember what it is though  ).

Issue with mini itx cases is the choice of cpu. Haven't found a mobo with support for better than a quad-core (i5-6600k or i7-6700k were my choices) in mini itx. There are some for mATX though, but it's a bit bigger.

A 530W PSU, which is a bit borderline, I'll probably buy a new gpu when Vega line up comes up to have something less power hungry to have more headroom for the cpu overclock (to 4.4- 4.5GHz).

And it's a fractal design core 500 case. Not the tiniest case ever, but you have the place for 3 drives, dust filters included, full size gpu support, an aio liquid cooler with a 240mm rad etc. The full package, overall a good case!
