Somewhat impulsively purchased this monitor last week to round out my new desk setup.
So far so good for me with no major issues with the display. I have used it 8+ hours a day for work/gaming since Friday. The KVM switch is a nice feature for switching between my work laptop (USB-C) and...
Posting this up here since when I was building this machine I couldn't find anything done with the mATX version of this case only the ATX. Hopefully will help someone else in case they want to do something similar.

Yes I use it as a boot drive. It doesn't seem any faster or slower than my 850 Pro SSD when it comes to booting up. Takes longer for the BIOS to initialize than to it takes to get to the desktop. Don't have an OS install on my 850 Pro anymore so can't do any real timing comparisons at the moment.
For the drain I was just going to put it at the bottom. Then get two sets of quick disconnects. With the extra quick disconnect attach two pieces of tubing keeping one end open. So when I need to drain just disconnect the loop then hook up the two QD+tubes to their opposite number and let it...
Working on building my first machine that has a custom water cooling loop in it. Would like to have someone check over my setup to make sure things are correct plus I have three questions.

Drain Valve - I believe I want to put this on the back at the bottom where I passing...
Was thinking of making the making the jump to one these monitors. For people that have gone from a larger 30" (ZR30W) how was the experience? The G-Sync + 144 Hz sure sounds nice but afraid I might miss the larger display.
Did a similar setup this spring been working great once I got everything up and going. I had some initial issues with getting the machine to post. I believe the reason for that was memory wasn't getting fully seated into the socket. Put it in and out a few times and then it just started...
I tried out the new 12.7 beta driver with 12.7 CAP2 which supposedly had support for Guild Wars 2. Since the profile was associated with gw2dev.exe I set it up to run with gw2.exe. Performance was less than 10 fps. Switching back too a single card I got 60+ fps. Was running at 2560x1600 with...
I am using FeedR for my Google Reader. Has 2 Way sync and a nifty widget that shows all your feeds. It does however cost $2 to get. I have also heard good things about NewsRob.
Thanks for the info. Helped me figure out why a lot of my downloads where always corrupted. Reinstalled the (6.53) nforce drivers without the Network Access Manager and it everything works perfectly.
Just got my 2405 today and played few hours of WoW on it at 1920x1200. Running it with a AMD 64 3200 with 1 gig of memory and a BFG 6800 GT. Ogrimmar was a little laggy at around 20 fps or so. Everyone where else was 30ish or higher. Really liking the 2405 so far might get a new desk though...
