the cloth version, couldn't justify an extra $150 for leather!

I have a samsung 24inch 1920x1080 on its way soon, paid $149 when it was on sale the other day

Also thinking of some case lighting, not sure if to use a controller like corsair link or to just install some rgb led strips and leave it at that.

This is a build for a drafting friend of mine.

I built him a system about 18 months ago and he is very pleased with it.

He's moving up in the world and is going to employ another draft person so he needs another work station.

This has similar specks to the first one except graphics card is not a Quadro (he wanted to save some coin)

So I don,t know how well the 1050 will cope with 3D rendering.

I will run a few benchmarks before I hand it over though.

Xeon CPU @ 3.4 GHz,  32 GB  DDR 4 RAM @ 2133 MHz and an Asus E3 Pro Gaming V5 mobo should make it interesting.

It was a bundle from PC Case Gear, I added another 16 GB of RAM to the bundle though :cookie:

I saw that deal too. but im thinking of bigger, for editing. that's a bargain. I think mine is the old version of that.

I gotta say, pretty happy with both but I reckon the LG has better blacks and whites. and im a samsung fanboy.

 

I am yet to really fiddle with the settings of both though other than brightness.

that monitor costs half as much as the system I'm currently building!
