$1500 New Build

I would really appreciate if you could recommend one over the other... Reading monitor reviews (and posts on this forum) it seems like ultra wide don't always work for movies and all games... some claim 1440p 2k are as good as 4k... Would be great to learn others have experienced.

$1500 New Build

Ah, a good point. I would really like something that is wide maybe one 27 inch monitor with 21:9 aspect ratio instead of 2 monitors.

I will also be looking to buy a new PSU and case. Any specific suggestions that you guys can offer? My current PC sometimes freezes / blue screen-s during games at peaks of activity and sometimes does not want to start at all, so I am thinking it may be due to power supply.

Very interesting idea, thank you for suggesting! Will ASRock Z87 Pro3 or ASUS Z87-A LGA boards support this setup? Is it difficult to configure? Lastly, what power supply do I need with this setup? Thanks!

Thank you everyone again for the feedback. I am now at a point where I urgently need to order parts as my old system is giving me problems... I have a slightly bigger budget of 1200 to 1400 to spend. If there is anything that mfenn suggested that can be improved with more $ - please let me...

Thank you for confirming. Is it the right time to buy now or wait a month or two? Is something new/better coming out soon?

Yes, depending on cost/benefit of what I am getting. It is really more on the + side though.

Thank you for the feedback! I have a small correction. My old card actually died and I replaced it with EVGA GeForce GTS 450 Superclocked 1024 MB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 2DVI/Mini-HDMI SLI in 2011. As for the sound system, it is connected with a simple cable - red and white audio inputs to...

Upgrade advice

Agreed. I will keep my video card. I feel good because I was building this PC under the guidance the community of this forum :) I am not really satisfied with the monitor, though. I got it as a replacement from Samsung when my other 20" Syncmaster (not a wide screen) broke. I have no...
