Pop-up or separate page for user account settings?
I'm working on a betting website, so it is kinda one game dashboard for all games, user only navigates from left side bar to change events. I have standard header where on the right top corner is notification/deposit/account/logout.
So my question is about how to make user account/settings/profile appear. I was thinking about a pop-up way to open the user account, because the user will not leave the game dashboard and can come back to the game easily. I'm not fond of the pop-up boxes, so I'll need your help. Is it right to use pop-ups or it is better to open up the account in separate page?
