Ya this is very true, somehow mw2 I have better latency but not mw3. Many thanks for guidance I will try again on this latency display. (y)
They seem to be the same servers based on my router information.

Mainly MW3 on Japan/China server.


I would like to share some test I experience the whole week, it seems by dropping the monitor color bit from 12/10 bpc to 8bit bpc HDR remain help me reduce the server latency from within 50ms down to sub 5ms server response time.

Not sure if you have any chances to test and share your experience if that happen the same?

Of course I do got a new router but I not sure if that really matter compare to the color bit changes.

The reason to build this, I was provide with an ASRock Sonic board and it was on my open bench while am using it. I couldn't find any chassis locally that will blend this board in. After being approach by Montech to review their King 95 Pro, I took the opportunity and I am fond of this case. What amazed me are the features and the thermal. More info about the case details and the thermal test I've done. Click Here

System Specs
  1. Chassis : Montech King95 Pro (Prussian Blue)
  2. Processor : Intel i7 14700K
  3. Rams : TeamGroup T-Create DDR5 32G Kit CL30-36-36-76 6000
  4. GPU : Gigabyte 4070Ti Aero OC 12G
  5. Motherboard : ASRock Z790 Sonic PG
  6. Liquid Cooler : Lian Li Galahad II LCD 280
  7. OS & Cache : 2 x Seagate Firecuda 530 1TB
  8. Projects & Storage : 2 x Seagate Firecuda 520 2TB
  9. PSU : Corsair HX1200 Platinum Radiator
  10. Radiator Fans : 2 x Montech RX140 (Pull), 2 x Montech AX140 (Push)
  11. Case Fans : 4 x Montech AX120 - Top & Rear, 3 x Montech RX120 (Reverse) - Bottom
Total Damage : $580 on processor, rest are sponsored.

What was done
  1. I riped off the white sleeves from the Lian Li Galahad II LCD 280 hose and use white velcro to hold the hose in position. Reason for this, I wanted contrast.
  2. As I am not able to fit the Galahad II LCD 280 to the side tray in this chassis. I have done a push pull configuration. Yes, the Liquid AIO did fit but I am not able to slot my GPU Horizontally, therefore have to mount it vertically.
  3. Next, having 2 full sets of fans which I am able to swap out the white and black rubber grommets between the two sets of fans. Again I wanted contrast.
  4. DIY Crimping for the top and bottom fans, Daisy chained 3 fans to one connector so that I can plug the top and bottom fans to the respective motherboard chassis fan headers (CHA_FAN 2 and CHA_FAN 5)
  5. Plug rear fan to CHA_FAN1
  6. Plus all four radiator fans to the case fan & argb hub, plus the hub pwm cable to CPU_FAN
  7. Plug AIO pump directly to CPU_FAN2 and in UEFI change it to W_PUMP (2A)
  8. For step 4. to 7. Just wanted to have total control on fan curve and to make use of UFEI to do the PWM Fan curve.
  9. Plus fans and chassis lighting strip and chassis fans argb to the case fan & argb hub. All are controlled by the button on the case.
  10. As for the Pump argb, using L-Connect to control the ARGB effects.
  11. Done some alertation on the LCD Image (Sonic) with rotation readings of CPU, GPU and Coolent Temp.
  12. Cable management is very easy, so long you tie down cables properly, it will be super neat.
  13. I have removed the HDD Cage and the side front swivel tray to have more ventilation. Especially the side swivel tray where more air will be pulled by my radiator fans.

hmm.. let me up the game.. this is not done by me. It's from a very close friend. he is extremely pro in custom watercooling, which I feel should share his build with us PC Builders.

Note : Moderators, kindly ignore the logo as I am not doing marketing. I feel should fill back the interest of Case Mod where our younger generations might be interested, hopefully will gather more interest and inspiration for the rest to build. I mean those with passion. Thank you!
