Hi there

After reading through some posts here I have gone for the following spec.

PC is for playing games only. Mainly fps multiplayer like warzone, quakelive, csgo, some warcraft and grand theft auto

What I cant decide is should I get a 1080p monitor with 240hz or 1440p monitor.

It's rare I play single player games

Thanks for any advice

Also can anyone confirm current buildtime

Is it actually 13-15 days or alot longer

That build is completely unsuitable for 1080p, it's for 1440p ultrawide or 4k. 1080p is a completely dead format except for competitive esports.

What's your budget for the monitor?

The build times are just estimates, it doesn't guarantee it will be built in that time.

Then if you add what you've saved to the monitor budget, you can get a top end 1440p Ultrawide:

Thanks for that spyder

Do you think that would be able to maintain high fps at that resolution in a multiplayer game of warzone without any big fps drops?

They will both perform very similarly. With the STRIX you're pretty much paying for the brand, and it's a LARGE premium for the name. That being said, you will get a known card whereas the stock option would be unknown unless you called and asked.
