Boy, you guys have quite the wishlist of graphics cards, don't you?

We were blown away by your responses, and spent a little more time than we should have going through all your comments and admiring all the gorgeous pieces of tech…

It was crazy seeing everyone's pre­ferences as well! A lot of Gigabyte and ASUS (especially STRIX) mentioned throughout the comments, just as well we've got plenty of both in stock…

And while there were no wrong answers, we didn't have enough cases for everyone – and it really was a challenge to pick the best response. Which was written by…

The Mighty Kong is back, more powerful than ever before and is making a victorious return to our Gorilla Rigs range with the HOTTEST HARDWARE IN THE WORLD TODAY!!!

You might think that's a bold claim to make, but once you take a look under the hood, you'll see exactly why we can boast such a thing…

We'll be the first to admit we may have gone a little over overboard, but when you look at all the that tech, we bet you'll find a goofy grin on your face. We'd know, it's been on ours since the parts for our Mighty Kong arrived!

Nvidia G-Sync Monitors

Computers

Add a comment By Ben

If you are running Nvidia Graphics in your rig you might have heard a hum around the internet about G-Sync and the improvements it offers PC Gamers.

In case you haven’t heard of it, G-Sync is a monitor module that synchronises the monitor with the Graphics Card. This means two things: you won’t have to use V-Sync, so your framerate won’t be regularly dropping below the standard, and it’ll eliminate screen-tearing because frames won’t be drawn faster than they can be displayed.

We wanted to know more and see it for ourselves so we've got our hands on the first amazing G-Sync Monitor from Art of Colours – the difference remarkable, certainly the smoothest gameplay we've ever enjoyed!
