Should be good enough imo if you wanna have a wind of change to ultrawide experience.  biggrin.gif
You're right. But it's like them Asus MY buy those US retail units and sell em here. Price is ridiculous no matter how I try to justify it, but maybe that's just me.  icon_rolleyes.gif

yes bro. if not, it will simply lock to a normal 60Hz. 100Hz is enabled via the embedded Gsync module of the panel.

anyway, one upgrade at a time.  biggrin.gif  Pair the monitor with a compatible NV GPU and you can enjoy Gsync also. It isn't just about the 100Hz, for me the most important thing is it is Gsync-capable panel.

issit tru the minimum for gsync is 980ti? (4k price lel) any other card compatible?

for a little bit of future-proofing, you won't get wrong in choosing either the H170 or even better the Z170. The later comes with additional support of 20 PCIe lanes by the Z170 chipset, exclusive of the 16 direct PCIe lanes provided by your i7 6700K (a total of 36 PCIe lanes), in which you can play around later on in expanding your system for your IO peripherals, for example, a NVME SSD, a PCIe-based storage, a faster wifi card, etc. This is important in case you want to do SLI in the future, who knows right?  biggrin.gif  Furthermore, you choose to go for the K version of the i7, so Z170 would be a better choice there.

and to answer your question, 650W is good enough for the above specs, but you never know if lets say in the near future, you wanna add on another one card and maybe do some OC on your CPU and GPU, if I were you, I'd go for the 850W, just for the future upgrade and better efficiency of the PSU operating at half the rated wattage, generally. I did this mistake by buying the 750W, coz I have the plan to do some SLI also later in the future. Wasting a lot of money by buying low wattage then gatal wanna do SLI and need to buy another one. Poor initial planning really.  sad.gif

ive check sli supported z170, mostly above 700 wanna got with itx machiam rugi.

but if with my current spec i just upgrade my gc and buy z35 shud be good enough for now cry.gif
