High End PC (Intel Haswell Based) Please Read

Buddy, passive 3D works in a diiferent way than active 3D and works with both nVidia and AMD GPU, However, 3D gaming is still not up to the mark, movie wathing is a fun though. But again, spend for a non
3D but good quality monitor

Depends on the configuration. SLI/CFX on microATX can be an oven for the GPU subsection, requiring a good case, and mini-ITX usually doesn't because of the choice of components.

In the end, the choice of your case is a crucial decider on temperature and heat. As long as your CPU does not cross 85C and your GPU 95C in stock settings, your system will last you it's expected lifetime (~10 years if you treat the parts right), which is much longer than it's practical lifetime.

OK then i am getting a NZXT Phantom 410 (Midtower)

Remind me of your needs and budget in a nutshell, it has been a while since I saw this thread (or rather you responded).

Usage:
Matlab,Programming,Gaming (Heavy Gaming like Skyrim AC3 Crysis 3 FC3 Grid2 ) ,Mathematica,Photoshop,Browsing,Audio Editing,Movie Play(HD),Rosetta Stone ,Multiple OS (MacOS X , Linux 3 to 4 Flavors, Win 7 , Win 8) , Android Dev Tools , Visual Studio , Virtual Machine , Emulators (PS2,Wii,Old Consoles)
Dragon Nuance Software

Budget: ~ 1Lakh

IMO, since you want to do some photoshop work, 3D rendering etc, I would suggest skipping 3D gaming for a better quality panel.

Do you think ASUS VG23AH is a bad monitor ?
(Hint Ignore CNEt Review - its done badly in the wrong process , try wecravegamestoo , overclock.net reviews for detailed review)

I want a IPS Led Monitor having Response time Better than 5ms

(Because thats what is the specs of VG23AH with having a refresh rate of 60Hz overclockable to 72Hz)

Yeah i get that ,

So Leaving the 3D Part Aside i chose the VG23AH as it performs in 2D just as good (perhaps better )than other similar Models from other Brands

STILL
if you guys have a better option then tell me (MONITOR)

How much is that monitor costing? IMO you should look at colour consistency, good contrast, decent black levels, excellent white levels etc.

EDIT: And not to mention, good gamma.

I don't how that 72Hz refresh rate is going to Help you.

The other day I found this cabby "Corsair Carbide Air 540" look cool and has a better overflow. But don't know when it will come to india.

And m-ATX boards are quite good if you are not planning to SLI/Crossfire.

+1 for IPS panels.

Price
~ 20k or 19k i think (including tax)

Do you have any other monitor in mind (IPS one having less Response time) ??

I Selected This monitor after Seeing the reviews
Please See them and tell me did i choose it right ?

try them !

I don't how that 72Hz refresh rate is going to Help you.

Decrease motion Blur & Ghosting
to a considerable extent


it is not going to help actually
but the 5 ms response time in a IPS screen will

BTW do you have any other good IPS monitor having low response time
in mind ,
Please tell me if you have one !

Is it an overclocked monitor? Because overclocked monitors can excaberate issues.

As i read it is not a over clocked monitor , but it is overclockable to decrease ghosting & other stuff
(as i understood reading and asking many guys at hardforum & overclock.net , who actually own this monitor)
