I think your choice of mice is not very good, but they shouldn't be dying in 6 months. I've owned a dozen mice and none of them have died on me. https://github.com/MaximilianKohler/Archive/wiki/Mice,-keyboards,-gaming https://www.rocketjumpninja.com/top-mice...

This guy gives it a 2/5 :LOL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOOvEeyzD6c Interestingly, most of the commenters seem to agree with him.

Nothing. That's it. It's useful for massive monitors where low DPI would be too slow. The vast majority of people don't need anything over 1000 DPI but mouse manufacturers used it as a marketing gimmick. I use 600 dpi on 1920x1080. 400. There was also some talk that doing this has some synergy...

Could you elaborate? I'm curious. I saw a video recently of playing games on a super-wide monitor like that and it seemed very immersive.

True. Compare that to the pictures I took where a pure black screen looks white due to IPS glow: https://www.amazon.com/review/R1ZA3N3Q7C10TT/ So the two monitors I purchased myself had completely different results from the monitor RTINGS showed. What does that say? RTINGS is totally...

No, that's not valid at all. I'm very familiar with the mouse-world for example, and tons of really garbage mice were the most popular, largely due to: 1. Ignorant consumers. 2. Heavy & deceptive marketing. This phenomenon occurs in many consumer markets. I don't want to be rude, but I think...

Not sure what you mean with this. I use my monitor to read text most of the day. VA has clear text; possibly even more so than OLED?

I looked at the recommended monitors for gaming and movies on a major site and they list many IPS monitors. Before I bought my current VA monitor (AOC C27G1: 27", curved, 144hz, 1080p) I tried an IPS (Acer Nitro XV273, 240hz, 27") since I frequently saw them recommended, and I saw that...

You're Kyle Bennett? Nothing much other than what was in the OP. I'm just trying to figure out what the best/most reliable public forum to use would be.

Interesting. I did a search for "hardforum owner kyle" and found 2019 news saying he sold it: * https://linustechtips.com/topic/1046118-kyle-bennett-sold-hardocp-and-is-taking-a-position-with-intel-as-their-director-of-enthusiast-engagement. *...

Where can I find info about Kyle?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJG9bikNBPg First time I'm learning about this guy. I watched his hour-long video and it seems pretty good. For reference, I used to review mice from the perspective of a high-level CS 1.6 player, but stopped playing games and trying mice for a while. I've been...

I used to use the overclock.net forum but while I was away it seems they made major changes and possibly sold to a 3rd party at the same time and most of the links went dead. I'm wondering what the chances are of something like that happening to this forum. I know this forum has always been...

If you like working as a porter (from your PC) over a barren landscape, and if you like crazy stories dreamed up by someone on drugs.

I did a comparison here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNrcTAoXe6A&list=PLZ2riVNLJly0KG7Z8albMETEmbRB8bCzd&index=2&pp=gAQBiAQB I use my mice all day.

I've used tons of mice and have never had a durability problem. I would question what you're doing with your mice that they break on you so soon. My current mouse is the Hati https://github.com/MaximilianKohler/Archive/wiki/Mice,-keyboards,-gaming. The issue I've been having is that debris...

Yeah, neither smooth scrolling or hardware accel impact the noise.

Thanks for the tip! I used a mouse pad instead of toilet paper roll, and it seems to be coming from the PSU! Since this is a different PSU from my old PC, this noise problem is likely unrelated to my mouse Hz problem.

I hope it's ok to revive this thread since it's a top result in a web search. How would a person verify that it's coming from the GPU? I built an entirely new PC and I'm still having this problem, but I can't pinpoint it by ear. The noise tester app on my smartphone doesn't seem to be precise...

Just got this from someone:

Someone said it's the same internals as this one https://www.techpowerup.com/review/corsair-vs650/

It's a good price, thanks. If you don't like supporting Amazon you can get them for the same price or less on ebay. Including new from BestBuy's ebay store.

This does seem like a pretty good deal, but I've seen someone say they got the 2700x for $130. Given that prices gradually decline I think I'll wait for a deal at least that good. $150 is the normal price for the 2700.

So you can't plug av40's into an amp's headphone jack? Like say the Schiit Magni?

I didn't notice the type of memory you used with this. I just see you said 1800mhz was the highest you were able to go with the memory you tried it with. I just snagged this g.skill 2400mhz memory for $75 on sale. I should be able to use it at 2400mhz with this motherboard right? I'll have it...

Found some more info on this keyboard: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=36071.0 http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=39449.0 - It looks like it's the same thing as the i-Rocks KR-6260 except the Knucker is double the price. http://forums.kustompcs.co.uk/showthread.php?p=501932 - It's not...

I'm also curious about this keyboard. It's in the same price range as this CM quickfire pro cherry brown http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823129003 They both have NKRO which is mainly what I'm looking for. The reason I'm considering the Knucker is because it's quieter than...

Ok, thanks guys. I guess I'll just stick to ACHI then get an SSD when they get cheaper.

If I put the drives in raid1 until I needed the rest of the 1TB space how would the Samsung F3 1TB being roughly 35% faster effect anything?

Well that's not what I'm getting raid for anyways. I'm interested more in speed then in data safety. Currently I have only 1 disk with all my programs and data on different partitions. If I used raid1 then both of my drives would have the same data on it, write speed would be the same but read...

even raid1? doesn't raid1 just double the read speed and have identical copies of your data on both drives? wouldn't that be safer AND faster - but only for read speed? isn't raid0 the dangerous one where you trade data for speed? raid5 seemed to be the best of both worlds but you would need at...

I've had this disk for a while now http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136218 but I'm running out of space. I've been paying attention to the SSD prices and was considering getting one of those, but then I read in a few different places that if you put regular HDDs into raid...

yeah I had the same problem with the 7g which uses the same black switches. Though the keys on the one on display at frys were much easier to press. I think they take a while to break in.

http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:6189 @Lanx, exactly.

Reviews of the 7g on newegg and elsewhere report the keyboard failing in less then a year. Not to mention steelseries has notoriously bad customer support which is also mentioned in reviews as well as experiencing it myself. I'm not saying mechanical keyboards aren't better then membrane, just...

Do you play with them because you're sponsoring them with steelseries equipment? Or do you play with them because you pay for ESEA? I'm actually pretty well known in the cs community not including all the newbs who only esea pug. I have been giving paid lessons for 3+ years and have a cs movie...

lol, how much are you getting paid by steelseries to advertise for them? bunny hopping has nothing to do with keyboard... 99% of people good at bhop use mwheel. "MILLIONS of vids that have him on ledges shooting" "you have bee saying alot of false inaccurate gibberish" lmao.

You guys laughing about posting a picture remind me of gotfrag... with all the highschool kids and trolls... Thanks to the rest, the sidewinder x4 looks good! And BTW frod who's one of the best cs players in the world uses a 7g because he got it from his sponsor and I can see the same errors in...
