Also, does Micro center have the 1600AF in…

It's been 6 years since I built a PC. I haven't paid much attention to tech since then, I've had to do a lot of reading up on Intel new cpu lineup, Nvidia rtx cards and a few other things but where I run into trouble is choosing the right motherboard and cooling setup with cpu. ASUS is what I always went with in the past…

I'm looking at a new PC build, and am interested in a Ryzen system possibly with the Gigabyte Aorus Master X570 motherboard.

I'm going to drop some of my Donnie Dollars off at the Tustin CA Micro Center. I was thinking about getting a 2070 Super. Are the Gigabyte Aorus GPUs commonly stocked? I'm a terrible person who wants to spend more money on pointless RGB lights.
Ok, I cant find any really clarification on this. Im looking for a 27inch curved monitor that will work well with my 2070 super gpu. Ive ready that nvidia has approved some compatable free sync displays. However, MSI for example....I read that they tested their monitors with nvidia cards and made a list of those that…
