i am going to purchase an entire PC system. 9 days I can wait, but is the release date for the US market only? I am located in Asia.

you are running 120hz at what resolution?
you have a high end i5 overclocked, so i might need to run it same as your setup on a i7 6700 at stock speed.

not sure if i can wait for rx 460 to be released.
GT 750 Ti, and GT 950 are also good choices?

will skylake i7-6700 (non-k) be able to handle 1080p 120hz and 144hz?

i am looking at nvidia GT 710. it is a low profile gpu that can be run fanless. how did you get your haswell integrated graphics running at 120hz? using displayport? i am 'quite sure' for intel integrated graphics, it cannot do dual link, and the only way is to go for displayport.

thanks for your answer.
just curious, do you need to turn on lightboost for watching movies?

the budget nvidia i plan to get do not have lightboost/gsync.
is it fine for watching movies at 144hz?
will i get screen tearing?

i plan to get budget nvidia card that has dual-link DVI.
Then get a benq gaming monitor 144hz, either XL2411z or XL2720Z.

is it ok to get a gaming monitor for the purpose of getting higher than 60hz smooth video playback?
This is a TN panel..

If this is not ok, my other choice is a dell ultrasharp IPS panel at 60hz..

i saw that information in the asus motherboard website
Integrated Graphics Processor- Intel® HD Graphics support
Multi-VGA output support : HDMI/DVI-D/RGB ports
- Supports HDMI with max. resolution 4096 x 2160 @ 24 Hz / 2560 x 1600 @ 60 Hz
- Supports DVI-D with max. resolution 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz
- Supports RGB with max. resolution 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz

But as you mentioned, i might be able to pull this off by setting custom refresh.

May i know which connector you tried on haswell with 120hz? hdmi? dvi? rgb?

i did more research on 120hz monitors.
It seems that skylake integrated graphics can only drive 60hz max.

I do not want to purchase external gpu, so i guess i can forget about 120hz sad

i will be getting an LCD/LED monitor.
i read that to get 120hz or 144hz, the manufacturer will need to implement a g-sync chip into the monitor, and nvidia card is required to drive that.

Thanks for the informative feedback!

This leads me to the next question, are the effects huge moving from 60hz to 120hz?
If yes, what would be the recommended monitor to get?
I did try to research, for 120hz monitors to work, i must get an nvidia card?

can too many cores/i7 be deemed overkill for using svp?
I browsed through the forum here, i saw a comment saying that i5 is sufficient for using highest profile settings in SVP.

skylake i5 6600 vs i7 6700?
interested in getting the most out of svp for best quality soap effects, without purchasing external GPU card.

Hi, I plan to purchase a machine mainly for work, but would also like to watch soap effect movies.

Question, is i7 6700 (non K) with just the intel 530 IGP sufficient for highest profile SVP settings?
