So I ordered this guy today.
There will be some custom painting done, but I don't think I'm going to try to do Jazz colors. I'm going to keep it sort of simple.
i expect to see pictures. with or without metadata!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's not quite true, either.
As I'm researching the equipment I plan to get I'm realizing the the splurge monitor I was going to buy is not the best option for my system.
I have an nvidia graphics card and nvidia has a proprietary method to eliminate image tearing and stutter called G-Sync. G-Sync actually requires hardware installed in the monitor. The monitor I was looking at supports AMD's solution to that problem (image tearing and stutter) Freesync. Freesync is handled by the graphics card but does require firmware support on the monitor.
The most awesome part is that at $550 it was already the single most expensive part of the build. G-Sync monitors cost about $200 more than their freesync equivalent. I was excited about the BenQ monitor as it seemed like a lot of people thought very very highly of that brand and people seemed very satisfied with the monitor I was looking at. BenQ doesn't make any G-Sync monitors (or at least not any 144Hz, 1440p, 27" monitors) like the one I was looking at. So it seems the big players in G-Sync are Asus and Acer.
The Asus monitors I looked at have a lot of horrible reviews. Some good reviews, too, but it seems like it's a quality control thing so you're taking your chances. Fortunately it seems like BlB (black light bleed) is the biggest issue and that's not a killer for me. They (Asus) also claim that they've stepped up their quality control game on these monitors, so maybe I'll be lucky and things will be perfect. But it is going to cost about $120 more than the BenQ monitor I was looking at.
The equivalent Acer monitors are $800.

How many of you gamers get physical activity and/or have children? I'm not being all Gyp here. I'm genuinely curious because I have two kids and little time for physical activity after work as it is and can't imagine dedicating myself for hours to some video game...though my gambling does take up a good chunk of my time I suppose.
