Do you tick all of the settings in reborn? You going for best looking right? Except the vsync?

How to check? Cause now, with reborn hard to check. Before reborn I used 1 program and can interface with dota, right now I forgot the name of the program. Lol.

Any program that you can recommend to check the cpu usage in game?

Yes totally maxed out in 1080p. You can check using RivaTuner OSD, packed with MSI Afterburner.

Haaa. Now I remember. I am using this software previously. But, somehow in reborn, it doesn't appear in my dota2 reborn screen.

But, for previous dota it does show the cpu usage everything. Do I need to tweak something? icon_question.gif

24 hours computing but what software is involved?

I will pick U2414H, that thin bezel and color quality really attract my eye ball.

Checked the system requirements, both aren't CPU demanding, but Bluestacks might hold you back a little bit even on high end CPU because it has to convert the arm/arm64 app to x86 or run it in a virtual machine.

I will go for Xeon, more threads compared to i5.

I'm really considering the U2414H but the others are almost half the price. Is it really worth it? Can't find any reviews online comparing any of these monitors.

I'll say it worth, I bought mine at just RM 800 last year (Nov 14), now the price is reaching RM 1000 mark which makes it feels like a bit "overpriced" sweat.gif

Thanks to GST + weak RM doh.gif

Is the Zotac Gtx 960 better than Sapphire R9 280 3Gb?

If VRAM usage is > 2GB, R9 280 will have advantage, otherwise they are almost the same.

i3 has better single core performance even though it is only dual core, most of the Intel out perform AMD CPU even though cores are lesser, don't judge performance by just looking at the core offered. A

And why you need quad core CPU? Any heavy workload or gaming there?

Witcher 3 is packed with Nvidia GameWorks, which holds back the performance of AMD card, but they (settings) can be disabled completely if I am not mistaken, but so far quite a lot of titles released this year are having issue with AMD card, if you want performance out of the box, go for Nvidia card, it is safer at least.

Hmm, do you already own the two 1440p monitor or they need to be included in the budget (you didn't include monitor in the hardware to reuse part so I am not sure about this)?

I found some cheap ones on lelong which is approximately same price as above but with 3.1 usb card.
