NFT Games: Is it worth trying? / Average income per day

NFT Games: Is it worth trying? / Average income per day

Question Asus to increase MSRP on graphics cards (and motherboards)

Discussion Samsung Odyssey G9

At the beginning yes, but that is also why I want one, it is going to take years for video cards to to be able to drive this monitor at 5120X1440 @240hz with maxed out settings in games so you should not need to upgrade this monitor for a very long time, but each video card upgrade will be...
