I'm kinda excited because my main PC monitor might be dying and that will force me to buy a new toy. I'd been thinking of buying a big, curved gaming-spec monitor for a while but couldn't justify replacing these 32" and 27" 4k 60Hz ones I bought before I started playing games but the 32" might be dyyyyyying!
I'm pretty frugal with spending money in that if I have something which works, I generally won't 'waste' money replacing it (why I still drive my perfectly functioning but aging 2009 sexy purple car when I'd love something new) but when I do buy something I'll throw a bunch of money at it to buy top tier stuff.
I'll have to do a bunch of troubleshooting before I go breaking out the cash, to figure out if the monitor is dying or if it's just a stupid cable or potentially even my fairly new graphics card but still.. potential new toy wooo!
I'm unboxing my new curved monitor this morning :)
I got a new one last week too! Must be monitor upgrading time....
