Hey guys,

 

I recently ordered a new gaming computer because mine is getting old. Here are the specs: 

OMEN Desktop PC - 880-150t

• OMEN 880t by HP Desktop PC 
• 256 SSD + 2 TB HDD storage 
• Black Interior Paint; Side Window; External 3.5" Bay; Liquid Cooling Solution (95w Processor) 
• HP USB Wired Keyboard with volume control 
• McAfee Livesafe (30 day) 
• BU ICTO UMA Z370 
• 32 GB memory 
• WLAN RT 8822 ac 2x2 +BT 4.2LE WW 
• Office Trial 
• No Optane 
• Windows 10 Home 
• Dual NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1080 8G SLI 
• 750 W Platinum efficiency power supply 
• ODD DVD Writer 9.5mm Tray 
• 8th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-8700K

 

My question is, I want to take as much advantage of this computer as I can... I actually bought a screen with it and realized it wasn’t really that good of a screen, so I purchased another one. I was also looking at higher end screens with 4K resolution and such, however a lot of them had a lower refresh rate and had reports of dead pixels and light bleeding. Will this new computer work well and take advantage of the computer I bought? If not, what screen would you recommend? The new one I purchased can be seen below:

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. 

 

Yes it should work well with that monitor.  You have Nvidia cards, so you can take advantage of GSYNC.

Great, thank you. Do you think that its a dealbreaker that I didn’t get 4K? 

No, it's not a dealbreaker.  It's only 27", and you can "run" games in 4K with Nvidia DSR.

with another 70 bucks you can get the one i got
