Hello,
using this topic as well for specs, hope it's the right one.
Here it is, renewed it recently cause old one was 5 years old :
As a monitor I use a Samsung TV KS8000 55' 4k HDR
Using also Razer Mamba + Blackwidow + Firefly, and testing currently an Orbweaver, never tested such material in an MMO dans I'm wondering if it could be useful in Pantheon.
Headset : Steelseries Siberia 840 ordered, should get it soon.
I don't really consider myself a fanboy, in the sense that I tend to go for whichever product I feel best suits my needs performance- and price-wise. About a year ago a thunderstorm managed to fry my onboard Ethernet controller, and I used that as an excuse to retire my admittedly old Core2Duo based desktop. I also decided to make my own set-up rather than going for a ready-made branded solution (which I had already done for my previous computer) and to buy just the parts and build it myself (a first for me - I felt like a toddler on Christmas eve!). After a few weeks' research, this is what I came up with:
The PC is in my living room, hooked up to my ancient Samsung LCD TV. I'm not in a particular rush to upgrade that one, what with it still working and new gimmicks coming up every year in the TV market: LED, OLED, 3D, smart features, 4K, HDR... I think I'll just wait for the TV to give up the ghost on its own terms and then see what kind of interesting options are around at the time.

That's quite awesome, I highly recommend it considering that some TV models with the right settings can offer correct input lag for gaming. Maybe FPS players can still get unsatisfied, but for MMO players the comfort brought by the big screen is worth the small sacrifice.
