[tribal shadow]

Couldn't be updated at all actually

[heady crystal]

They did eventually release a firmware update

Only after I returned mine

[tacit linden]

I think you either had to send your monitor in for them to update or have an Nvidia graphicscard, if you had AMD you were fucked.

[heady crystal]

I believe it was NVIDIA-only over DisplayPort

[tribal shadow]

Yea you still do require an nvidia card

[heady crystal]

Although it is a GSYNC module monitor

[tribal shadow]

Since it is the gsync module that actually flashes the firmware

[tacit linden]

Before OLED there was no way I'd buy a monitor without a gsync module, freesync 💩

[heady crystal]

HDMI Forum VRR

[tacit linden]

No variable overdrive but isn't really needed on OLED

[thin zodiac]

I'm looking for a new 100% keyboard. The TwoHE is too old for me. But what else should I get?

[white jackal]

any keyboard?

hall effect?

[thin zodiac]

It doesn't really matter. The main thing is 100%!

There's nothing useful there. At least, I can't find anything.

[white jackal]

neo98 is not quite a 100% but close

[winged pewter]

Keychron Q series also seems nice

But they only have 3 hot swappable switches

[thin zodiac]

I don't like Keychron keyboards.

[white jackal]

keychron bad

[winged pewter]

How come? A friend got one and was happy with it

[white jackal]

yeah check out neo98 and qk101 maybe

i would have said intro s100, as ive had good experience with that one specifically but seems to be unavailable

[thin zodiac]

hhmm.. thx

[rain turret]

@gray shuttle did you give your Zneo supplemental power?

[gray shuttle]

No

[gray shuttle]

No

It drew enough from my pc

[tribal shadow]

in what way is it too old lol

[rain turret]

Allright then

[half elk]

why not 80he + separate numpad?

[wheat lichen]

meze 105 aer any good?

[quasi field]

I wouldn't like it without EQ. If you buy it do try EQ. It's comfortable

[round lagoon]

could do with some EQ, but pretty okay.

actually almost 1:1 with hd490 pro producing pad.

[wheat lichen]

or should i get focal azurys found some on sale for 400 euros

[quasi field]

I would pick the Meze because it's more comfy

[wheat lichen]

ah, okay so meze it is

what would you guys change with the EQ?

[round lagoon]

damn, what a strong dip

[round lagoon]

I would make it like this.

[wheat lichen]

ah so lower the bass and mid treble

[quasi field]

Just try presets and see what you like. Then finetune the one you prefer the most if you should wish

Can also try the PEQdB listening test where it auto-EQs to different targets and you can listen for which you prefer

[wheat lichen]

i will give it a try, thanks for the suggestion

[quasi field]

This fan feels so high quality to the touch

[round lagoon]

mmm

You can say it's Fan tastic

[tacit linden]

Why not the poo colored ones, hello?

[quasi field]

Because my build is mostly just plain black

[tacit linden]

💩

[viscid bison]

I like how it looks(aside from the Z) but is it going to creak and feel flimsy, like someone just built their first Gundam kit without the instruction manual. If it feels like a solid rock then I'm all in

[hazy fiber]

https://www.reddit.com/r/MouseReview/s/ww9qad4HTr

slower than op18k v2

same click latency as any other top tier mouse

innovation

[bitter ore]

i mean

does it account for time needed for acctuation

i feel like its ignored

[hazy fiber]

https://www.rtings.com/mouse/tests/control/latency

[bitter ore]

wonder how fast the mechanical finger is compared to the avg human

[languid ridge]

Read it, it doesnt include physical latency. It's only electrical latency

Superstrike never claimed to improve that

tell me you dont understand what you're talking about without telling me 😛

[mental spade]

"We place the connector directly on the left-click button, so our measurement includes the pre-travel distance the button must move before actuating the switch. Because of this, our latency results are typically slightly higher than those from other testing methods or the specifications advertised by manufacturers. This approach is intentional, as it better reflects the actual latency you experience when using the mouse."

well looks like it emulates that

[languid ridge]

Yeah no

Will find out when they publish their Human bench results ig

[mental spade]

not sure how else you would do it in standardised test

it's clearly taking into account physical latency though

so not sure why you said "Read it, it doesnt include physical latency. It's only electrical latency"

[hazy fiber]

I think you didn't read it, not me

[winged pewter]

wouldnt this be less accurate as no human can do the exact same reaction time each time?

[languid ridge]

as long as the sample size is large enough its better

[obtuse dove]

which is fine tbh, the main selling point is how customizable it is anyways.

even though they made it way too sensitive

or their filtering algo just sucks

although tbh analog filtering is way different than the usual binary filtering that is usually used in mice

[mental spade]

na the main selling point was the decreased latency

[winged pewter]

but they only tested first click latency no?

[pine pulsar]

anybody know how to clean an arm sleeve

[wispy blaze]

Just throw it in washing machine witj your clothes

Just dont leave it in the dryer for a full cycle, take it out early

[pine pulsar]

appreciate it ty

[terse ferry]

Why use arm sleeve when long sleeved clothes exist?

[pine pulsar]

glass pad

[terse ferry]

Still. Long sleeve clothes doesent require any sleeves..

[pine pulsar]

but then i have to wear long sleeves

[terse ferry]

So? It would be exactly the same thing without requirement to buy "gaming sleeve"

[pine pulsar]

i didnt buy it it was all a gift from my gf

even then i dont own any long sleeves its too hot

[wispy blaze]

different amounts of friction

[wispy blaze]

he doesnt understand

hes a g502 user

[pine pulsar]

https://giphy.com/gifs/STRAPPEDUS-speed-ishowspeed-i-show-s5wFafpHxqKbIEERl9

makes sense

[wispy blaze]

we tend to just ignore his opinions on peripherals

[pine pulsar]

LOL

[terse ferry]

You do not understand peak called g502.

[wispy blaze]

that mouse wasnt peak in 2014 and it wont ever be peak afterwards

[terse ferry]

Just say you are not into ergo gaming mouses.

[terse ferry]

Do you want me to record my self using my g502 to prove you are wrong?

[wispy blaze]

there is like 8 million better options than a g502

and no, fuck ergo

[wispy blaze]

what on gods green earth is this going to do

[ivory tiger]

Fuck logislop

[wispy blaze]

yes send me a video of you moving your brick around

thatll make me get it surely

[ivory tiger]

The only thing it's good for

[delicate raptor]

ill defend a lot of things and usually if you like something you like something but

the g502 aint it

[lament siren]

yeah lets see the gameplay

[warm rain]

https://tenor.com/view/battlefield-6-gif-2256432898947043721

[woven cairn]

ah yes, recording a brick being moved on a pad. Surely a world turning point

[shy igloo]

dont you guys know the ONLY ergo mouse available in 2026 is the g502

IDIOTS bro

[weary mist]

I like my Symm mouse

[shy igloo]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-shake-earthquake-cat-earthquake-shaking-cat-dancing-cat-gif-13509701062532266507

i bounce between the vv3, dav4 and wlmouse huan

[weary mist]

I just have my trinity and I’m content

[shy igloo]

i really enjoy the huan rn

im also maining the glsswrks polarity

[weary mist]

Yeah I like my light mouse and I don’t think I could use a g502 without spraining my wrist

[proper vector]

I like my G502 for work

Tons of useful keys

[shy igloo]

i got a vertical mice at work and its actually pretty useful

its like 110g tho LMAO

[gray shuttle]

Real workers use swiftpoint z3

[shy igloo]

im only allowed to pick from a preapproved list of peripherals at work but i wanted the z3 💔

[gray shuttle]

Aww

What do you do?

[shy igloo]

the tilt action would be so useful

i work for the government

[gray shuttle]

At my jobs I just get a monthly budget

[shy igloo]

so im only allowed approved peripherals

[gray shuttle]

Ah

Though a z3 would be the entire yearly budget at once kek

[shy igloo]

yeah i got my peripherals, chair and desk paid for luckily

[gray shuttle]

Nice atleast

[shy igloo]

got a sit stand desk

[gray shuttle]

Oh nice

[heady crystal]

Today is new monitor day

27" 1440p 280Hz glossy Tandem OLED

[shy igloo]

280hz

[heady crystal]

I play no comp games

[shy igloo]

is it 1440p 720p

oh thats valid then

why no 4k

[heady crystal]

No, it's the XG27AQWMG.

[shy igloo]

ooooo trueblack500 pog

[bitter sapphire]

Thats a goated monitor

I love mine

[shy igloo]

i recently switched out my alt monitor from a 240hz ips to 360hz qd-oled

now both my monitors are qd yippee

[patent patrol]

yipeee

[heady crystal]

My monitor has arrived

[terse ferry]

Ergonomic mouses are the way, fuck symetrical blobs that are uncomfortable to hold in hand

[exotic phoenix]

I'm torn between wanting 4k but also UW but also OLED, so there's really only 1-2 options and they're both expensive af lmao

[terse ferry]

Do you have gpu powerfull enough?

[proper vector]

Ultrawide is overrated

[white jackal]

If you buy ultrawide you can become one of those people that only complain about ultrawide support

[terse ferry]

Ultra wide is only good for racing games

[white jackal]

Least annoying people on the internet for sure

Leaving a negative review on steam cause the devs forgot to think of my 100:1 monitor, how dare they

[proper vector]

But 32:9 is better you can have it like 2 monitors near each other trust

I think I need to buy a second GPU
I'm running out of video outputs

[bitter sapphire]

Dual 7900 XTX

[proper vector]

9070XT looking very nice right now

But I think I'll be okay with A310 or something

[bitter sapphire]

GT1030

[terse ferry]

Nah you just need 5090

[proper vector]

But 5090 has the same amount as my XTX

[winged pewter]

5090 only has 4 connectors though

[winged pewter]

Can you not daisychain?

[proper vector]

I don't think my old monitors can do that
But I bet I can get like 30€ one instead of one of mine which will support that

[bitter sapphire]

[proper vector]

I have already 5
But I want to get OLED soon, so that will be 6
And I have a tablet which wants HDMI, so that's 7

[bitter sapphire]

U gonna go with a 4k oled right ?

[proper vector]

I'm kinda between 4k 32" and 1440p 27"

[heady zenith]

may i suggest 49" 5120x1440

and combine some of those screens into 1

[winged pewter]

I prefer 1440p 27

[bitter sapphire]

I do love my dual 27” setup

If i would play less multiplayer shooters i would have gotten a 4k display

[proper vector]

This is the plan

wayland will freak out

[bitter sapphire]

Im the casual type

Tho i thinking about getting a small 3rd monitor just for teamspeak and spotify

[proper vector]

1080p IPS you can get from companies getting rid of their stuff for 20€

I got 4 of them because I got bundle of 3 for like 40€

[bitter sapphire]

I would be happy with a TN or VA panel as well

[exotic phoenix]

5080 but it's whatever

nothings powerful enough for 5k2k rn really

maybe a 5090 but you're not maxing graphically intensive stuff out

and idk 21:9 looks great to me

I know my next monitor will be 21:9, and I'm probably better off just going 1440p oled

[round lagoon]

Tony Stark ahh setup

[heady crystal]

Firmware updating

[proper vector]

Don't call me that
Tony Stark was a vibe-coder

[heady crystal]

Jarvis, order me some nuggies.

[exotic phoenix]

wonder how he got signal for chatgpt in that cave

[proper vector]

JarvisGPT

[heady crystal]

[bitter sapphire]

Yeah i did that after the firmware showed up on the website

[proper vector]

I think PG32UCDP is the one

[blissful gust]

He was?

[proper vector]

Tony's coding was "Jarvis do this, Jarvis do that"

[blissful gust]

But he made Jarvis

[bitter sapphire]

So dual-mode monitor

[heady crystal]

I’m liking this new tandem OLED already

[proper vector]

That's why it's so expensive
Nah, I just want 4k only

How is non-dual mode PG32UCDM more expensive?

[bitter sapphire]

[proper vector]

erting said these 9

[bitter sapphire]

Good luck

[proper vector]

I'm sitting on DP1.4 with DSC anyway, since GPU can't do DP1.4 and 2.1 simultaneously

And can't use HDMI 2.1, because HDMI Forum is blocking 2.1 on Linux

[bitter sapphire]

Oof

[proper vector]

MSI MPG 321URX Looks cool and is quite cheaper

[bitter sapphire]

Ah yes 1170€

[proper vector]

I have found it here for 790€

[bitter sapphire]

I could find it cheaper if i would buy it from Germany

[solemn spade]

Gng what y'all peripherals

[proper vector]

80HE and DAv3

[solemn spade]

Woaw

[bitter sapphire]

80he and OP1w 4k v2

[solemn spade]

Wat

I got no moni for wooting bru

[proper vector]

I have my build on my Steam profile

[bitter sapphire]

You can get good with a normal mechanical keyboard

Tbh same

[solemn spade]

Ye I got razer balckwidow v3

[terse ferry]

G502, wooting 80he and truthear hexa

[round lagoon]

wooting 80he, fiio qx13, hd490 pro, lg ultragear 32inch ips

[winged pewter]

Are there any recommended ANC headphones in here?

I can pick up sony inzone h9 2s for 215€

[heady crystal]

Glossy WOLED my beloved

[obtuse dove]

Tandem OLED is pretty amazing! Both varieties at least

[heady crystal]

I should really take the peel off.

[obtuse dove]

Yeah duh

Although the most satisfying peel will always be the one from my old Pro Display XDR.

[wet coral]

when samsung quintuple panel oled

[obtuse dove]

That's not feasible

OLED pixels aren't completely transparent

They're opaque

That applies to both AMOLED and WOLED in which both use different implementations of tandem OLED

[wet coral]

my fault

ahem penta panel oled

[obtuse dove]

And oddly enough both implementations aimed to solve different issues with each technology

[obtuse dove]

Then you're just burning power for no reason, the rear most pixel is gonna have lost 80-90 percent of its original luminance given how thick OLEDs are now

[wet coral]

https://videocardz.com/newz/samsung-display-brands-five-layer-qd-oled-penta-tandem-for-monitor-panels-up-to-1300-nits

why is this website paid

[obtuse dove]

Oh QD OLED

I mean that's different

All they do is stack more blue pixels on top of each other, to increase luminance

Even then luminance efficiency of the rear most layer of blue pixels is significantly reduced

[wet coral]

yes i want to get flashbanged by an even brighter screen

[winged pewter]

1550 nits is crazy bright

[winged pewter]

Idk how much this’ll have

It also lists peak brightness figures of up to 4,500 nits for TV panels and 1,300 nits for monitor panels

[obtuse dove]

Eh, 2000 nits is what I would have expected for 5 layers of blue pixels

But like I said, efficiency drops off the more layers you add

For the rear most layers

[winged pewter]

1300 nits seems low

[obtuse dove]

It's because the physical pixels are smaller

Makes sense that they aren't as bright as the TV pixels

Which are way larger

[winged pewter]

Yeah but tandem has 1550

[blissful gust]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-blind-flashbang-light-mode-gif-21281004

[obtuse dove]

1500nits is about what last gen mini led screens can do

Actually

4-5 generations ago

[winged pewter]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-eyes-camera-security-nightvision-gif-12739426533096511488

[obtuse dove]

Also tandem AMOLED can do 1600 nits with only 2 emitting layers

Yet QD OLEDs need 5 blue pixel layers to achieve something comparable

And they consume way more power than the tandem AMOLEDs

Hopefully they will make the pixels thin enough to make the efficiency of the rearmost layers of pixels more efficient

[gray shuttle]

My fifine K688 arrived

Seems alright enough

[wheat lichen]

rog kithara worth considering?

they look so fragile

[odd path]

Any recommendations for quality mousepad ?

[ivory tiger]

I've heard wallhack and artisan are good

[odd path]

https://artisan-jp.com/global/

this ?

is there a canadian website for it ?

[ivory tiger]

Dunno, can't tell you if you will like it. Mousepads are pretty much preference

[ivory tiger]

Can't tell you

[frank blade]

Dont even try getting ninja fx zero xsoft L

You dont wanna know what will happen

Im trying to snipe it

I check it every hour

[patent patrol]

snipe?

[abstract warren]

Another way of saying ‘secure’ it

[patent patrol]

i know the word

but its like an old mousepad that you can buy everywhere

[blissful gust]

New server case came

[round lagoon]

cat already claiming the box

[hazy fiber]

https://artisan-jp.com/global/authorized-resellers

[winged pewter]

Lmao resellers are selling it for 80€ per pad

[patent patrol]

not far off the end price in europe

ordering from artisan gonna add shipping, taxes and shit

[winged pewter]

Iirc i could order 2 pads for a total of 60

[hazy fiber]

small size?

[winged pewter]

nah medium iirc

or large

[patent patrol]

last time i ordered dhl wanted 27.40€ in fees for a 50€ order from me (one xl pad)

[hazy fiber]

80 is normal price for an XL artisan

[patent patrol]

65€

on maxgaming

lowkey get a xxl tho, xl kinda smol

[lunar niche]

For those that take their audio cables seriously

[round lagoon]

oh yeah, I have this placed saved when I wanna custom made my hd490 cable, just that the shipping there to here is like 30-50% cost of the cable lmao.

[bitter sapphire]

Uhm i guess my AIO pump is deadge

[lunar niche]

LOL where's that guy that berated me like a madman for saying my AIO pump died, that being the reason I stick w/ air

(also, sorry about your dead pump T_T )

[winged pewter]

Is that on boot?

[crude talon]

Meh unless you really like the square(not quite) it doesn’t matter much
xxl is only 1cm wider and like 7cm taller

[kindred shore]

honestly that is surprising even with a dead pump it should not do it that fast

[bitter sapphire]

Yes

but after a full power off and on cycle it works again

[weak sage]

those temps seem high for an AIO

[kindred shore]

90 is a bit high

its throtteling iirc x3d chips do throttle 5c before non x3d chips

[rain turret]

if you want some contrast

[kindred shore]

well its not under load so hard to compare , idle temps seem a bit high

[rain turret]

Both idle...

[kindred shore]

you have not shown peak temps. idle to me is more or less pointless to look at given what programs are running etc some pcs never truly idle

[rain turret]

Yeah i'M so sorry Sire, not here to please you at this time, just to provide my fellow hungarian some contrast. Have a great day!

[kindred shore]

nah its cool just doesnt help much to diagnose the issues

[winged pewter]

Yea i hope that aint idle temp at 90C

[bitter sapphire]

Nope

[bitter sapphire]

Whats your AIO even ?

[kindred shore]

what are your idle watts?

[bitter sapphire]

Idk

[kindred shore]

well do you use wallpaper engine or simmilar

[bitter sapphire]

im in a game right now

[kindred shore]

ah then its not idle at all and reasonable temps

[bitter sapphire]

but i do use wp engine

[lament siren]

lmfao i remember that convo

Peerless assassin

💪

Or assassin x

[azure creek]

Is there any mouse that has the same functionality as the g pro x2 superstrike and has the buttons from the razer naga? I'm really used to these 12 buttons on the side but my mouse is from about 2008 so the laser is dying, can anyone help?

[gray shuttle]

No

[azure creek]

Damn

But is there any good mouse with the buttons on the side?

Preferably with software that I can use on linux

[mental spade]

Pulsar is bringing out an MMO like mouse sometime

[azure creek]

And there's not any good mmo mouse other than that?

[rain turret]

Have a look at aerox 9

[azure creek]

18k dpi?

What the hell

[rain turret]

Evga had one aswell, the x15, but it would be difficult to find now

[azure creek]

There's not many options

[mental spade]

But yeah not really any that I would recommend that aren't ancient or bad quality

They're a dying peripheral tbh

[azure creek]

Yeah but these buttons are really really useful in almost every game

Especially in Minecraft and other games with hotbars

Razers makes good mmo mice but they're really expensive for what the new ones are and they are not really known to last long

A hall effect mouse seems pretty good though

[rain turret]

Try to get either options i listed, might need to dig a bit or make do with some details, but they will work.

[azure creek]

I don't really know if I still want an mmo mouse

Is the scroll wheel on the pro x2 superstrike good?

[rain turret]

They are quite heavy, the other option is something nice and light with two side buttons and you just start keyboard binding more.

[azure creek]

Yeah but even though my keyboard is really good, I can't walk and change items at the same time

That's the problem

Or I can just use the scroll wheel

[rain turret]

I play MMOs and do just that, very possible to keyboard bind nearly everything.

[azure creek]

I know but my keyboard is already full of keybinds and as I said, I can't walk and press the number keys at the same time

And I don't play MMOs so it's not really necessary

It's just a personal preference

[neon jasper]

New super strike arrived it’s pretty cracked

[vital gorge]

Cracked? Send it back!

[astral musk]

The only mouse that'll left click, if you squeeze it too hard.

[wispy blaze]

peak quality control

[tribal shadow]

Not quality control

Just "bad" design

That kind of switch would essentially require either some cf rods to stiffen the shell around it or like a metal subframe to stop that from happening

[half elk]

what fps do y'all use for the hmlab zneo for gif?

[heady zenith]

gif in 2026

[patent patrol]

someone should find a way to use smaller aftermarket haptic motors

[heady zenith]

especially with gifs having shit quality and exploding in size with framerate cause unlike video files they dont compress well if at all

[gray shuttle]

Just whatever the gif comes in :v

It's an usb hub Tony, it doesn't need anything but a silly gif :p

[half elk]

ohhh ty

[tribal shadow]

The haptic motor ain't the issue

[heady zenith]

why dont they just play mp4 though

thats what i mean

[gray shuttle]

It takes 54 frames max afaik

[patent patrol]

they could be lighter if they wouldn't use such strong ones

[tribal shadow]

It's just that you make the pcb flex which then guves you garbage outputs

[gray shuttle]

Idk, I don't think it's a very advanced product haha

[tribal shadow]

Woukd still be heavy af

[tribal shadow]

Yea it's a usb 3.0 hub lol

Idk just plug peripherals directly to pc lol

[gray shuttle]

It does what it needs to and it shows a funny gif for me

[patent patrol]

i wonder what they will do for the c as that one already got a thinner shell and stuff

[gray shuttle]

That's all I need

I have the raptor scene from jurassic park on it, when the raptor looks in through the kitchen door window

[heady zenith]

wont lie i dont know why it needs to be usb3 even

alas i also dont get why people even get one to begin with

[gray shuttle]

It was a whimsey on my part but no regrats

[half elk]

i have a mini itx so limited amount of ports, having a gif on top of it made it a nice buy for me when it's pretty cheap

[tribal shadow]

Mini itx still uses the same size io shield

[gray shuttle]

I...have too many peripherals

[half elk]

my old pc alienware had way more usb ports than my current one 😭

[heady zenith]

i guess i dont get that either anymore... there was a time in my life where i had tons of stuff plugged into my PC but now its just Audio interface, mouse and keyboard

sometimes controller for charging

[gray shuttle]

Which audio interface is that Tony?

[heady zenith]

scarlett solo 3rd gen atm (soon 4th)

[gray shuttle]

Happy with it? Been eyeing it as well

[heady zenith]

very much so although i think the 4th gen will make me the tiny bit happier given it finally has xlr on the back side

[tribal shadow]

Got keyboard, mouse, dac, audio interface, webcam, controller

[heady zenith]

i do like the monitor volume knob being on the right front side of the 3rd gen though

[gray shuttle]

I wonder how safe secondhand solo ones are

I assume the build quality is good?

[half elk]

yeah i have numpad, dac, keyboard, 2 wireless mouse, mic. which fills all 6 slots of my usb on the back

[tribal shadow]

My brother kept complaining about his solo

[half elk]

only have 2 front ones which i have to save for when i have to plug in external flash drive or my 2 sinden lightguns or controllers

[gray shuttle]

Oh

[tribal shadow]

His drivers kept crashing

I use an m-track solo, quite happy

[proper vector]

MiniFuse 1 is great

[heady zenith]

ye

[heady zenith]

oh good point.

solution for me (on AMD only) was to uninstall scarlett drivers.

on intel it ran fine

pretty sure its some agesa or such USB stack issue

[plain schooner]

I have all the usb ports in use

[gray shuttle]

Mouse, keyboard, wireless headset, micro, streamdeck, bluetooth adapter

Yeah I have so many

[heady zenith]

m-track would never work for me cause my interface is in a stack so knobs on top are a no go

[tribal shadow]

Fair

[heady zenith]

i also still dont know what the scarlett driver does that the default windows driver doesnt... sounds the same and works the same (prob cause i dont use any software to control anything)

[gray shuttle]

This might be good for my usecase

[proper vector]

Just a small warning - if you want to plug something from the back it takes 2xmono 6.3 chomnks

[gray shuttle]

Dumb ass question, it outputs 7.1, right?

[proper vector]

2.0

[gray shuttle]

I don't know shit

[proper vector]

1 headphone jack per pair usually

[gray shuttle]

Ah

https://www.thomann.de/be/focusrite_scarlett_2i2_anniversary_ed.htm?glp=1&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=1565224537&gbraid=0AAAAADuDMCVAwNOlCYkAnK2kvgxtVjlum&gclid=CjwKCAiA-__MBhAKEiwASBmsBJXdU_W92hDPTcB8EYzWDLBXTQR1p5aukkdifQ2nRZu3DLE19G9uURoCjd8QAvD_BwE

[proper vector]

So 7.1 takes 4 - main/front, side, rear and subwoofer+central

[gray shuttle]

Blue one so sexy ugh

[tribal shadow]

you wanna do 7.1?

[gray shuttle]

Appearantly not

[tribal shadow]

For headphones you really only need 2.0

[proper vector]

Would be a good idea to get MSI 321URX? There's nice discount for it now

[winged pewter]

Its a 3rd gen qd oled 4k240hz, whats the discount at?

[proper vector]

Costs 790€

[winged pewter]

4k is a hard requirement?

[proper vector]

I'd like to get a nice 4k240 OLED

[winged pewter]

What about the mo27u2?

[ancient mantle]

Personally think 27inch is a nicer size for 4k but that may be me.
Yes you need some scaling but it works well enough in plasma. Just a few rough edges.

[patent patrol]

150% for 4k 125% for 1440p (on 27inch)

[bitter sapphire]

Me on 100% on 1440p 27”

[patent patrol]

too small 🤬

[bitter sapphire]

Its average

[ancient mantle]

Same for me, 4k is 125. Granted it is smaller text than on a 24 inch 1080p screen. So I can see it both ways.

[bitter sapphire]

Both of my monitors are 27” 1440p

[patent patrol]

i find text and icons too pixely

[ivory tiger]

Your eyes must be very sharp

[winged pewter]

I have 100% on oled 1440p 27

[bitter sapphire]

I never noticed that

[patent patrol]

[bitter sapphire]

Oh true some more context as why i think my AIO is dying before i restarted and fully powered off my pc my CPU was running at a max of 720mhz

[ivory tiger]

Was your cpu throtting down tho?

[gray shuttle]

So my fiio ka11 is arriving soon, I was told it's a good DAC

[ancient mantle]

3x 1440p 27inch and 1x 4k 27inch here
all nicely the same size by scaling.

[bitter sapphire]

After I completely powered off my pc yes the temperature started to going down

[ancient mantle]

Are the fans spinning?
I would expect a pump failure to be more sudden and a fan failure to climb a bit slower in temperature.

But could be the pump on second thought yea.

[bitter sapphire]

I didn’t check at that time

But im pretty sure they spinning as i was just launched It Takes Two as a friend of my sent an invite

[crude talon]

yeah

[ancient mantle]

I have in the past used an aio with the fans turned off on a 3570k, radiators do still work somewhat okay passively. Especially if you have other fans on your system naturally blowing air through them.

[proper vector]

For 4k I think I'd like 32"

Plus MO27U2 costs 760€ here

[winged pewter]

Fair, fo3wu2?

[winged pewter]

Bummer, its 500 here

[proper vector]

This one looks nice

[winged pewter]

Its mainly the price which is important

Panels are all the same or very similar

[viscid bison]

Neat. I'm keen to try the Superstrike once it filters down to a potatoless shape and whatever refinement. Mouse clicks can sugg my bolls - give me silence. All of it

[proper vector]

It's about the same as the MSI, 10€ more this one is

[neon jasper]

squeezing the shit out of it and nothing? Guess my unit is ok haha

[astral musk]

Awesome. 😄

[winged pewter]

Hmm then its warranty and extra features you should look at

Maybe msi has the better coating? Iirc they own the trueblack stuff

[heady crystal]

Hmm, I could be convinced.

[proper vector]

These look almost the same
The only difference I guess is that Gigabyte has DP 2.1 and USB 3.0

[rustic mesa]

Only when you put the actuation point to the lightest possible im pretty sure

[neon jasper]

Can't see why you'd wanna do that anyway

[rustic mesa]

Or whatever its called

[neon jasper]

being able to set the actuation for your mouse is actually so good though

and adjust the feedback

def the future

[tacit linden]

Wonder what Puslar is planning to release, they just dumped all stock here with 60-65% sales on everything except for the Feinmann.

[rustic mesa]

I’m not into audio at all and have no idea what to get. But I’m looking to switch to some iems. Any recommendations as to what I should pick? Mostly looking for better audio for games like tarkov, cs, etc

Currently using my crusty wh1000xm4’s that have seen 4 wars

Budget range would be like 100-400€

[elfin kayak]

prolly the crinacle dusk

[crude talon]

gwolves dispute done 🎉

[rustic mesa]

https://giphy.com/gifs/shark-tank-VFYJXIuuFl6pO

[viscid bison]

Start low first, Samsung EO-IA500 for $8 will blow you away

[rustic mesa]

I mean I'm okay with spending a bit more on a better pair. I looked up the crincacles and they seem on the edge of my budget unless I'm looking at the wrong ones. (Dutch pricing)

[viscid bison]

in that case, may as well support a Dutch company like Canpur. The Silver Flash iem's specifically which is about middle of your budget. I'd look into those but the biggest challenge is, finding iems that fits your ear properly. And if that worries you then I'd go lower in price, like the Truthear Hexa's for exampl

[wet coral]

kiwi ears astrals
great deal if you can find it for 275 on sale

[winged pewter]

How about kvm?

[proper vector]

I don't really have any use for KVM

[winged pewter]

Hmm then yea just get the best one for you personally, dp 2.1 doesnt do much, maybe allows it to run without dsc?

[proper vector]

I will have to run it with DSC, unless I get 2 monitors with DP passthrough which will replace 2 I already have
XTX outputs either DP2.1 on 2 ports or 1.4 on 3

[winged pewter]

Ohh

[proper vector]

Hol up
@rain gale you are smart
It says DisplayPort (DP) 2.1 on any one or two ports. DisplayPort (DP) 1.4a on any and up to 3 ports simultaneously. on my XTX spec page
Does this mean I can use 1x 2.1 and 2x 1.4 or not?

[rain gale]

uhh let me check what the display engine supports

[vital gorge]

Flattery works

[rain gale]

on nvidia they had a neat page about the display engine limits that would clarify because pre blackwell it was the same DPE since pascal but amd never had a official site for it

is it one of the cards with miniDP or what are the connections on it?

[proper vector]

3xDP and 1xHDMI https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/asrock-rx-7900-xtx-phantom-oc.b9957

[rain gale]

I'm going with likely not but what would the setup be for the bandwidth, so what hz/resolution?

[proper vector]

I have now plugged to it 1440p240 and 2x 1080p60 (and 2x 1080p60 plugged to motherboard)
I want to get 4k240 to that and a graphic tablet 1080p60 which uses HDMI

The question only is how much of DP I can use, becuase if only 2 then I'll swap 2 of my 1080p monitors to ones with DP passthrough and it will work, there's like a pile of them at office
And also I can't use HDMI 2.1 because Linux

[rain gale]

well the hdmi2.1 thing might be solved in near future there have been some patches

[winged pewter]

I mean tbf

If its 10€ difference just buy the one with dp 2.1

No reason not to haha

[proper vector]

It shall be beautiful

[rain gale]

yeah so that firmly lands you in the area of "maybe"

[gray shuttle]

[rain gale]

since that is the max that 1.4 can do with DSC it might work, however plenty of cases where it would be limited to 120hz bc either vendor might not have the full 1.4 spec, on some workstation cards 1.4 is limited to 120hz for example

[gray shuttle]

That's a very pretty mouse

[patent patrol]

prettiest color ive seen yet

[rain gale]

so uh, ideal solution? hope that the hdmi2.1 fix for linux is not too far off and use that

otherwise it's truly a case of have to try it because its not guaranteed lol

[proper vector]

Or swap 2 monitors with the ones that have DP out too
It's 1080p60, it won't be that much bandwidth

[rain gale]

if you want you could comb through the linux drivers and see if they mention how many heads N31 has then you can check how asrock wires them up and we know the answer

but short of that its a "maybe"

[proper vector]

In the very worst case scenario I'll just get rid of 2 monitors

[gray shuttle]

I'll valiantly submit to take in those monitors for you

[proper vector]

They are like 15€ each, cheapest IPS you can find

[tulip tide]

meanwhile me doing just fine with a single 1440p 27inch

[proper vector]

For gaming I need 2 monitors
For work? 4 is minimum for me

[round schooner]

Yall i prob have the worst cpu gpu combo

wait is this even relevant

it isnt

[gray shuttle]

You are always relevant friend

[rapid bane]

for gaming a single monitor is enough for me

[heady crystal]

Yeah, I’m ok with one monitor these days.

[tepid burrow]

https://tenor.com/view/on-my-puter-puter-cat-cat-on-my-puter-gif-7325418265106709603

used to have 2 but discord doesn’t need its own monitor

[round schooner]

i use 1 165Hz gaming monitor for everything

[round schooner]

i use my phone for discord which is under my keeb

[tepid burrow]

i have my main monitor then my second one for if i need to google stuff about items ingame

or to not have to tab out to change spotify songs

[rapid bane]

davy

modtap caps lock to fn layer 2 then set asd to previous, pause/play, and next

[tepid burrow]

yeah that makes no sense to me.

[rapid bane]

want screenshots

or send me your profile

[tepid burrow]

im at work

i dont like messing with stuff i dont understand

[tepid burrow]

i barely remember how to take a screenshot on pc, nevermind what you said…

[rapid bane]

its all in wootility davy

[rapid bane]

modtap is where rappy snappy and snappy tappy is

setting asd to previous, play/pause, and next for fn layer 2 is in remap section

wtf is fn layer.

i genuinely dont fuck with settings man 😭

[deep hawk]

FN layers are the only way 60% keyboards are usable

They put the FUN in function

[tepid burrow]

i just tend not to fiddle with things

have messed settings up 1 to many times

[rapid bane]

[rapid bane]

cant say ive ever messed up settings

[tepid burrow]

i have unfortunately

plus i am still getting used to like… every other wooting setting so

[rapid bane]

you know what else you can mess up davy?

kidding

[rapid bane]

damn

[tepid burrow]

this is a good question

Lots of things.

[rapid bane]

lots of things

[bitter sapphire]

i started up 1 game

tho it was compling shaders

[tepid burrow]

i need to set fan curves and stuff but that seems like a dreadful task

[rain turret]

yep, its donezo

[bitter sapphire]

but it went down

[rain turret]

thats a dieing pump, sooner you take action the better

[bitter sapphire]

im gonna order a NH-D15 cooler

or idk

[bitter sapphire]

i could ask Arctic for warranty

[rain turret]

i can DM you what i would get

[bitter sapphire]

sure do it

[lament siren]

arctic customer service is very good

if you want a free one you could go the route or just get a NH-D15

[terse ferry]

Maybe change thermal paste. Because 80c is not normal on pc

[lament siren]

changing thermal paste wont help him when the pump is dying on him

why it kinda ugly

[languid ridge]

Not even superstroke :c

[wet coral]

disgusting

when will companies learn forged carbon looks like buns

[patent patrol]

the box looks cool tho

[round lagoon]

wtf is that pattern, it looks like they just smear hot plastic to the shell

[languid ridge]

who cares what it looks like, like u nerds even have lights in ur caves

[patent patrol]

thats forged carbon

[wet coral]

thats what forged carbon looks like

[patent patrol]

they being as lazy as they can for a 1/25

i just got a monitor light so

[round lagoon]

hmm, kinda looks like somebody drawing camo pattern from memory

[deep hawk]

Dag coming with the headshot

[languid ridge]

tbf would be worth the privacy hit if it were superstroke

With those odds winning a superlight feels lame

[patent patrol]

you could shellswap it :D

[silver topaz]

I need it

I need f1 mouse

[frigid ivy]

The new melgeek horus mouse looks interesting. Especially the claimed battery life, it might actually beat the gpx on battery life.

[mental spade]

I'd take what melgeek say with a massive grain of salt

[terse ferry]

My 12700kf is cold under load

[quasi fiber]

any recommendations for what oled i should get? im looking for a 1440p 240hz, with that my old monitor ill use as a secondary one, so i also wanted to ask if i should get a dual monitor arm, or 2 separate ones, and what brands are good for them?

[proper vector]

@winged pewter I went with MSI one
The Gigabyte one is also DP1.4, for the 2.1 it must be a P model, and it was like 150€ more

[bitter sapphire]

I can recommend the Arctic X1-3D monitor arm

[bitter sapphire]

If my AIO pump can survive one more week somehow im gonna send back via warranty claim and gonna order a Peerless Assassin 140 in order to replace it

[winged pewter]

7900xtx is a beaaast

[blissful gust]

It really is

[vital gorge]

there is more to monitor life than games

[bitter sapphire]

AI

[silver topaz]

I do too, but when it comes to f1...

[tribal shadow]

It's a headphone amp...

And what outputs is it supposed to use for 7.1

[proper vector]

It say 7.1 so it true

[tribal shadow]

as someone that has a 5.1 setup, no it not true

For headphones all you need is 2.0

[tribal shadow]

You also do not need more surround drivers, and most digital processing

You basically just need am hrtf that colors and delays your surround noise which tricks your brain into perceiving it as surround

[proper vector]

Ew, math

[patent patrol]

and game with good audio implementation

[tribal shadow]

hrtf is usually handled in game engine

interesting

[tribal shadow]

have not looked at it and I already know he won't have a good test setup

[winged pewter]

What would a good test setup be?

[tribal shadow]

yea about that

logitech made a switch that is really hard to properly test

[patent patrol]

probably most realistic test yet

[tribal shadow]

currently my best concept is an FSR sensor on top of the button

so you can sense pressure changes

and then detect start of increased pressure to click

but even then you are gonna have biased results

[tribal shadow]

ik someone that is doing that rn, but therre still is not a software suite that makes this easy or reliable

[patent patrol]

what actuates it

[tribal shadow]

would have to be a human finger

really no way around it if you want to measure "human wanting to input to result"

part of the issue why measuring it is hard

[patent patrol]

will see what the others do

[tribal shadow]

in what sense?

[patent patrol]

the other review sites

[terse ferry]

Ok then when superstrike in my g502

[tribal shadow]

yea uhhh

either just applying garbage testing (like logitech)

or still trying to find out how to properly test it

afaik nobody has a good test method yet

[patent patrol]

for his usage this one seems not so bad

[tribal shadow]

nah I already spotted one issue in his methodology

he doesn't reveal what the starting point was

which is pretty important for this test

was his finger hovering over the button, was it barely touching it or was he preloading it with his finger to some degree

[patent patrol]

probably when the button doesnt show any movement at all

[tribal shadow]

makes a MASSIVE difference in this

[tribal shadow]

probably is not good enough for this

[patent patrol]

looks like it from the video

need a reviewer that just does latency tests all day

[obtuse dove]

hmm? cant you just use any standard data acqusition software like NI LabVIEW and FlexLogger?

like those will be more than sufficient no?

[tribal shadow]

nope

or well

you could

not sure if any of them accept "left click" as an input

and you would need to prob do some custom scripting so it can guess where you actually started pressing

[obtuse dove]

eh, you can tap the usb data lines directly using a logic analyzer

and then send that to LabVIEW

[tribal shadow]

ig so?

[obtuse dove]

and then you can use a loadcell to plot the force applied to the mouse switch over time

and then plot the USB data packets recorded by the logic analyzer over time

and the difference is your latency

[patent patrol]

when we getting gaming drugs to half the human latency

[obtuse dove]

or a mixed signal oscilloscope works as well, you dont need a ton of channels for USB

[glacial flare]

[white jackal]

Are they going out of business?

Should never have changed their name smh

[glacial flare]

did they confirm the hd6xx will be gone or will it just be some collabs

[lunar niche]

They were acquired by Corsair years ago but have still been running their own site. That's ending: https://drop.com/talk/148992/the-next-step-for-drop

[lunar niche]

Many Drop products will continue to be offered directly from Corsair and partner channels, including CSTM80 and a variety of our licensed offerings.
I just suspect that there's a reasonable chance Corsair will cut products they don't want to continue to support, so I'm providing the warning in case people were holding out.

[glacial flare]

hm yea there is a good chance it might hit the hd6xx then

[half elk]

When asked if products like Sennheiser or Koss headphone collaborations would move over to Corsair, Williams didn’t confirm or deny on a product-specific level, but stated that “almost all, if not all, of those will end up not being moved over.” He pointed out that Corsair, as a brand, has its own headsets and other products. However, Williams said “the main ones that are sell well and do well, we’re going to continue on Corsair.”
yeah doubt they will keep it

[glacial flare]

dont the hd6xx sell well

who tf even buys corsair headphones/headsets

they are literally all trash

[white jackal]

never looked at a corsair product in my life and thought "yeah this seems good quality, i should buy it"

[surreal vigil]

people who wanna stay within the corsair ecosystem. i used to be that way with razer

[glacial flare]

i used to have a corsair keyboard

had a corsair headset for a day

i would rather get a logitech headset again after that one

[white jackal]

ngl, of all the big gaming brands i think the only one i would buy from is razer cause i like the shape of the viper

but only that mouse

[glacial flare]

yea razer has criminal software but their mice are good hardware wise

[white jackal]

everything else from razer, logitech, corsair, steelseries, etc etc seems terrible

i noticed that it gets worse the further down the list you go

[glacial flare]

i have the actis nova pro they are decent

but overpriced af

tbf

if i had to pick between the maxwell and actis nova pro

i would pick the nova pro any day

[white jackal]

i am also a strong headset hater to be fair

[glacial flare]

u prefer iems?

[white jackal]

i think gaming headset is one of those product categories that is uniquely positioned to enable the creation of the most abysmal dogshit products possible

[glacial flare]

xD

trueee

[white jackal]

headphones + separate mic all day every day

[glacial flare]

thats what im doing

well sometimes i use the nova pro when i run around the house

but i prefer using my Aune AR5000

[patent patrol]

speakers

[steady tiger]

i won the nova pro at an xbox event and im glad i didnt pay for them, man the sound quality is not good for the price

[glacial flare]

i EQed the sht out of them but yep

compared to my maxwell they cant rly do much

but my maxwell also broke for no reason so theres that

[steady tiger]

the concept of 2 batteries and the hub is cool but everything else is pretty poopie, they also dont get a good seal for some reason

[steady tiger]

what does your eq look like? i run them neutral

[glacial flare]

im using this one for the aune ar5000 but i like it on the nova pros ever since i forgot to switch it over

[blissful gust]

Press the side XD

[wet coral]

wait i have the video

[wet coral]

have you found your mouse's gspot yet

[solar brook]

interesting, even with actuation point set to 1 that doesn’t happen when i press the sides

i also don’t see why i would even press my mouse like that during gaming

[crude talon]

the guy on top of the video looks like he has to press very hard

[blissful gust]

In the example video he shows the are barely pressing

[crude talon]

have you seen anyone else recreate that or did that person just have a copy with poor qc

or fake it, only shows one hand

[astral musk]

It is likely poor QC. Several people have done it though.

[solar brook]

guess mine doesn’t have that feature but good to know if you press it like a maniac during gaming it happens to some people

[hazy fiber]

Not there, try pressing on the front

[solar brook]

like that?

[patent patrol]

not qc

there’s literally nothing happening, guess as Mansen said, poor QC

just thinner shell that flexes easier

[solar brook]

or that

[patent patrol]

but you aint gonna reach that pressure with normal mouse grip

and if you do you have other problems...

[glacial flare]

60grams would be fine if it wasnt terrible front heavy weight balance on a 170$ mouse lmao

and the shit side buttons and scroll wheel

[solar brook]

170 would be a dream, here the resell price is 250, sold out everywhere

[patent patrol]

its not the superlight2 scrollwheel

[patent patrol]

damn really

maybe i should resell mine

[glacial flare]

im too lazy

[patent patrol]

oh nah used is below msrp here

[glacial flare]

people already reported the scroll wheel having the same problem as superlights before

[solar brook]

oh it was unused, just resell, better than waiting 4 weeks on amazon to ship

[wet coral]

i heard same side buttons and i actually heaved

[glacial flare]

i insta got ptsd from when i used the superlight

[crude talon]

I bought new earbuds today
js one more pair fr :copium:

[wet coral]

theyve been using the same side buttons since the g pro

[solar brook]

scroll feels different but side is the same yes

still loving the superlight tho

[patent patrol]

do people want tactile sides buttons or what

[glacial flare]

i just wait till someone like lamzu makes a version of this so i dont get cancer every time i touch my side buttons

or scroll wheel

[wet coral]

am enjoying the vv3p much more than the gpx

[patent patrol]

people got interesting priorities

[glacial flare]

nah i just wont pay 170 for a mouse that gets crushed by 30$ ali express mice

[wet coral]

small mouse of choice is my hitscan hyperlight

[crude talon]

like something feeling nice? 😭

crazy prio

[patent patrol]

the differences in side buttons and scrollwheel really aint big

and i tried tons of mice

[solar brook]

it’s only logitech for me, ain’t really interested into those Temu mice or whatever honestly, Sidebuttons are fine for me and so is the scroll

[glacial flare]

i already preferred the v2 pro over the superlight, i only hear good stuff about the v3

[crude talon]

sure but it's one in a decent list of complaints that plenty of people have

[glacial flare]

logitech is just exceptionally bad

to a point where its not worth buying

[wet coral]

slightly forward hump on the viper is nice to palm

[glacial flare]

im using the maya X still most of the time

[patent patrol]

could be different sure but you really shouldnt base your buying decision on it

[wet coral]

maya x is superlight shaped
will be nice if you like that specific shape

[patent patrol]

maya x and viper v3 pro still feel so different in hand compared to superlight

[glacial flare]

maya x feels better in hand than the superlight to me

well the superstrike feels terrible either way bc of the front heavy weight

[heady crystal]

I need the Pulsar X6 they're yet to release

[glacial flare]

yesss

[wet coral]

i need a pulsar x2f cl

[crude talon]

soon™

[wet coral]

x2f is x2 cut in half but it weighs the same 😭

[patent patrol]

i need good keyboard switches

when they inventing those

[glacial flare]

once the wooting knobs release you dont need switches

[wet coral]

real

[glacial flare]

just make a keyboard out of those

[heady crystal]

I'm ready to pop off in WoW again, I need a good MMO mouse.

[crude talon]

they said they're making a 29g one at least, better than 42

[glacial flare]

thats the only logitech product i would insta buy no hesitation

a g600

wireless

[patent patrol]

then i would have to use a wooting

[crude talon]

my bank gave me more money back from my gwolves dispute than I should've gotten

[patent patrol]

nice

[glacial flare]

imagine using a wooting

[heady crystal]

G600 has the perfect thumb buttons, the Naga V2 Pro and Scimitar just didn't come close.

[patent patrol]

so normie

[heady crystal]

Haven't tried the Steelseries MMO mouse.

[glacial flare]

ye it was the best mmo mouse by far

i have the Aerox9 and it also dosent come close

logitech peaked with that mouse

and then just ditched it

[heady crystal]

I still have one, somewhere, but the left click is fucked.

I'd also like a wireless model in year 2026.

With a better scroll wheel and sensor.

[glacial flare]

hahaha same

[hazy fiber]

x4 is coming this year

[rain turret]

@wispy hedge do you know if theres some problem with giftmat cards right now, not receiving it even after 2 resends.

[wispy hedge]

hmm shouldnt, its like a shopify feature

check spam folder

i see the order

that cant be it lol

By default, Shopify automatically emails digital gift cards to the buyer, not the intended recipient.

is it in the spam folder?

[jolly pulsar]

Drop is dead

[astral musk]

Surprising no one. Corsair bought it, learned what they could, then killed it.

[wispy hedge]

learned: "what not to do"

[jolly pulsar]

Most of their stuff is on clearance rn for 90% off @astral musk

Could be a good bargain for some people

[astral musk]

Wouldn't help me. They never broke into EU, and I don't enjoy paying out of the world for import duties.

[jolly pulsar]

The going out of business sale machine

[jolly pulsar]

I bought a set of purple keycaps for my 2he years ago and it was decent

[astral musk]

Back when Drop had their old name (that I don't remember anymore), they sent me an Ergodox kit to review. I miss those days.

Of course since they never broke into the EU, it was kind of pointless.

[heady crystal]

Massdrop

[astral musk]

That's the one 😄

[round lagoon]

feel kinda sad, those are the name I hear when reminiscing 2016-2019 youtube era with their AD on Linus Tech Tips.

[pine pulsar]

can somebody feed me some good light mice recs with good polling rate please 🙏🏽 i currently use a mchose L7

[wispy hedge]

dm'd

[deep hawk]

If it was sent originally, it will list that in the order history for the card

[wispy hedge]

yeah it doesnt, which is weird

i only see the order email was sent

but idk why shopify wouldnt send it automatically

[deep hawk]

By default when one is made manually, this is automatically checked

But perhaps if it's a purchasable product that's not the case?

[wispy hedge]

let me see if theres ettings for this

hm dont see any settings

[deep hawk]

No automatic fulfillment?

[deep hawk]

Otherwise you could set up an automation with Flow

[wispy hedge]

it should, the default would be automatic

nah dont need flow for this

its a built in feature

hes not responding right now, i assume its just in the spam folder ;)

thats like the only actual setting

ya whoe manual says defualt is auto send

Missing Emails: Check for technical issues or verify if the email went to spam.```

lol ya

[deep hawk]

Shopify giftcards are weird... That's why we essentially don't bother with them, except as customer support options

[wispy hedge]

yeah

[silver topaz]

may take advantage of that lol

[deep hawk]

Was weird before they changed them to Shopify store credit, then only got more weird...

[wispy hedge]

I think only once someone ordered one before so i dont even know

[deep hawk]

Should probably set a default expiration though, otherwise you get a buildup of liabilities even if the customer never intends to actually redeem it

[wispy hedge]

theres only ever been one, I'm not concerned :D

[deep hawk]

Fair 😛

[jolly pulsar]

Perhaps

Seems like everythings on clearance lol

I saw keycaps for 5$ lmao

[wispy hedge]

ya theyre shutting down haha

[jolly pulsar]

I paid like 45$ for those keycaps and i liked em
