I'll take two

That looks beautiful.

Yeah, don't want to know what a set up like that would cost.

I'll Take Two

I see what you did there

[Dr. Pezus]

I recommend Heroes of the Storm for everyone, including MOBA noobs! It has great tutorials and seems quite a bit easier to play than most other MOBAs (but hard to master of course).

It's in open beta now

Getting a 1080p monitor.

Getting a 1080p monitor. 

What do you game one now?

What do you game one now?

Have my PC set up to a gigantic TV and a little monitor. 

To play games I need the TV set as primary, but that means turning the TV on and logging in that way. 
So I'm getting a 1080p monitor so I can clone displays.

I want one for 120 fps

Three issues I have with gaming on PC.
Monitor - would be nice to use TV at times and monitor at others.  But this is getting fixed. 

Speaker - same as above. 

Controller

Would be nice if everything got set up for me automatically. 

Monitor should be good. 
Thinking of setting up a few batch files or something that starts up at the same time as steam to set the appropriate settings.  But it doesn't seem like there's an easy way to do that.

o.O

You can already do that though o.O

My only issue with PC gaming is that some games are exclusive to other platforms (i.e. ME3, etc on Origin).

Other than that I have no other issues with PC gaming.

Monitor - most applications use the primary monitor, so I have that set to my TV, but some games like Age of Empires I don't want to play on my TV.  Only way to change this is to set monitor to primary, and then back again every time. 
Instead I'm getting a new monitor so I can clone them.

Speaker
Sometimes I want the TV set as my primary speaker and other times I want my speakers as those are closer to the monitors.
Should be doable to set steam to change TV to primary. 

Controllers
I use the DS4.  Which means I have to open up Input mapper and set a profile for the application I'm using. 
Most games just use my Xbox profile but there are exceptions.

You answered your own question in your 2nd post lol.

Also I use the xbox 360 controller since its the only wired one I can find

Plus I dont have to do anything extra or special so I'm fine with it. I may use the DS4 in the future but at this point I might as well not lol.

Please read "automagically" in my first post. 
Second post explains what I do now. 
That's very far from automatically.
