    8K!
    Yeah I know...
    I just got my 4K, but... Dell UltraSharp 32 8K Monitor: UP3218K | Dell United States



    The UP3218K has a resolution of 7680 x 4320 (for a pixel density of 280ppi), which is as many pixels as you’d get from four 4K displays or 16 Full HD panels.
    Dell’s 8K monitor is a sublime $4,999 luxury for the pros - The Verge

    Great Cliff. In a few years when they start making 8K movies and games it would come in useful. Of course, the price will be more reasonable then.

    The thing is, until Microsoft get's, Windows 10 DPI issues, act together, it would be wasted money.

    Heck, in a few years I would hope to have some commonplace 4K offerings. I have a 4K TV, and a few shows on Netflix that are in 4K. My TV provider is mostly 720p with some 1080p. It upscales ok, but is heavily compressed and you can see it. BluRay's look great.

    Very wishful thinking, OldMike. Notice Corsair seems to have a problem figuring out Asus (Z170) MBs. Look, yet another post from their forums from a guy who has the exact same MB I have. He is showing 10 fans.

    The issues with CL reporting have been posted so many times and we hear nothing at all from Corsair themselves on their forums. At this point I consider myself lucky CL is doing what I need it to do, control rad fans, pump and color.

    The way things are going, we might have to wait until Programmers Without Borders is established to come to the rescue of Corsair and their CL software.

    Yes I agree with you 100% :) But CL is also doing everything I need it to do, and that is the bottom line. :)

    Ok guys after waiting to the GPU I wanted to get, I've changed my mind. I have ordered a newer version today. :)
    Should get this card in about 4 days, maybe 5. Think it should be an ok upgrade.... Info and pic below.

    Well, I guess I should say yes. I like it. Make sure it will fit in your case. It's pretty big., but it's a nice card.
