Who needs battery life anyway right
the battery life charges pretty well
i think it'll work fine with rgb\
maybe slower charging and consume battery faster

You don't even see your headset while wearing it, RGB is pointless

also by your logic, having a headset that looks like garbage doesent matter because your not going to see it when your wearing it

If you need the best gaming headset, donโt get a gaming headset

yeah, id hold off until a patch happens
tall tide
because my mother goes on my pc sometimes and decides to shut it down
i prefer to keep my pc on
really doesent affect your pc's performance from what i heard
brittle pagoda
it should help besides dust buildup
tall tide
yeah even better is the fact that i have my tempered glass off lol
brittle pagoda
yeesh, why do that?
tall tide
i dont know if this effects it but i also have literally one fan
tall tide
yeesh, why do that?
runs better
brittle pagoda
yes, yes that does,
i can see why now
you need atleast 2-3 fans
2 intake 1 outake
or multiple of each
tall tide
yeah i know, my pre-built came with one
if the air is blowing outside of the case what is that?
brittle pagoda
thats outtake
tall tide
alright so i have one outtake
rapid smelt
Keeping your pc on all the time can make things worse over time. Plus it's a LOT of electricity
brittle pagoda
having no intake means your choking your pc
rapid smelt
So if you're not the one paying the electric bill, I'd turn it off
brittle pagoda
ah yeah, i mustve had it swapped around, plus forgot abt the power bill
tall tide
imean even if you shut it down youll still get an electrical bill because it's plugged into an outlet
tall tide
i watched a techquckie video
strange finch
eh
tall tide
i dont believe you
brittle pagoda
itll hit harder on SSD and HDDs
strange finch
the jury's out on whether it's worse to keep powering on and powering off or to keep it on
tall tide
ncix*
strange finch
a lot of it depends on your power supply
initial startup does have a larger surge of power
brittle pagoda
well depends whats left running, bearkoda is right if its an ssd with background tasks happening alot
strange finch
but for most intents and purposes it barely matters and the electricity cost matters more
brittle pagoda
the more an ssd is used the faster it dies
strange finch
that's true of every component...
brittle pagoda
its not the same for an ssd,,
tall tide
so i just realized something very cool, i downloaded random files, mainly images/discord on my ssd instead of games
brittle pagoda
the more stored on an ssd the faster it dies.
rapid smelt
Yeah I pay my electric bill, it's not cheap, and I live in a tiny studio
strange finch
nah, how much you've stored on an ssd doesn't really affect endurance
it's writes that affect endurance
brittle pagoda
yeahh, keeping it off will help in that case, what wattage is your psu?
strange finch
so it only matters if you're overwriting existing data
besides, there's more to it than that
tall tide
yeahh, keeping it off will help in that case, what wattage is your psu?
who
i got 650w
strange finch
there's also ECC and overprovisioning
tall tide
also somehow my gpu runs at like 30 degrees temp with one outtake fan
brittle pagoda
nah, how much you've stored on an ssd doesn't really affect endurance
its correlative, the more you have writen the more it needs to read, the reads and write will wear it down. so having more stored will wear it down.
strange finch
it's just the writes
tall tide
im going to clean my gpu a bit with a q tip that has a micro fiber cloth
strange finch
if i stored 100gb of pictures on my ssd versus 1000gb of pictures but never overwrote any of them, they'd have the same theoretical endurance
it's why ssd endurance is advertised in TBW
terabytes written
not read
brittle pagoda
ah seems your right, my mistake, but i do remember that more stored on it will wear it out faster.
strange finch
you might be thinking of speeds slowing down as you store more
which is true, and is also affected by the type of nand, firmware, and caching
brittle pagoda
having nand should help with that alot though,
ik the others help but nand is a bigger factor
strange finch
every ssd has nand
there are zero ssds i can think of that use exclusively dram
in fact, having dram is usually a selling point
most of the cells of an ssd are going to be nand, and then some will have dram to serve as a way for the ssd to use as a lookup table for the rest of the data
that improves performance and endurance
brittle pagoda
i got dram and nand swapped around, im really not helping myself any here.
yeah the dram is the kinda table of contents, so the ssd wont have to search all over the place
tall tide
changing the topic here, what was your first gaming mouse? not like a dollar store gaming mouse
for me it was the razer mamba
brittle pagoda
first i can remember, my first well known brand mouse was the logitech g502 hero
tall tide
the hell does rule 10 mean
strange finch
it means don't ask for serial numbers
tall tide
what do serial numbers even do
brittle pagoda
thing was insanely heavy and started failing on m1 with unreliable clicks and not being able to hold it down
strange finch
would you give out your credit card number?
tall tide
nope
strange finch
then don't give out serial numbers
tall tide
aight
strange finch
or ask for it
tall tide
what can you do with it
strange finch
get returns
brittle pagoda
if support needs to verify your product for stuff, like returns
tall tide
oh
so if i was in america, i couldent even get a replacement for my other rival 650
because i took off the serial number
dont know why i did lol
viral dew
we offer replacements for most countries
not just the united states
but yeah no serial number sharing pls
tall tide
its either europe or the us
brittle pagoda
unless you have the sn written down or somewhere else, yeah your out of luck
tall tide
and i asked for an rma from saudi arabia ๐ฆ
then they said no
since
they dont do rma for saudi arabia
brittle pagoda
its just laws and stuff
tall tide
im sad
strange finch
klexy
viral dew
hi
strange finch
when are you carsoccering with ret and I
viral dew
considering i work for steelseries support, i can assure you im well aware of what im talking about lol
idk saucy
car soccer makes me nervous lmfao
viral dew
that's a lot of pressure
viral dew
oh ret i have an update for you if we do carsoccer before i go to bed
strange finch
i'm working right now but i'll try to hop on
tall tide
man i regret buying a replacement and throwing the s/n code away ๐ฆ
strange finch
nah there's nobody here at work right now
tall tide
i just figured out something cool
If you connect the charger to the usb dongle from the rival 650
and on the other side put the usb
its wireless
so it basically saves a usb port
Im suprised there hasn't been a protest about the 600/650
brittle pagoda
man i regret buying a replacement and throwing the s/n code away ๐ฆ
you can check the website and your account to see if its there
and the email you got aswell
tall tide
also if you dont believe me i can show you just to let ya know
brittle pagoda
i believe you, i have no reason not to
tall tide
yeah but theres a possibility i could be scammin, but i aint b)
brittle pagoda
SN's are there for anti scam
i dont think steelseries can accept a return without some proof of purchase and a SN
tall tide
not exactly what i mean
tall tide
some people do things like this to get sympathy from others to get another rival 650
product*
i aint trying to get sympathy, since i dont really need another rival 650
brittle pagoda
ah, i dont got that money, and i think that those kinda scams dont work out that well
tall tide
as i bought one
tall tide
ah, i dont got that money, and i think that those kinda scams dont work out that...
ye ik ik
but if there were someone trying to do that
still a posibility
brittle pagoda
yeahh
tall tide
i wish there was a channel just for images
brittle pagoda
of what?
brittle pagoda
yeahh it would, but they dont allow it for some reason
tall tide
Favorite gaming brand, other than steelseries?
For me it's probably corsair or logitech
probably corsair more since their pc cases are great
brittle pagoda
for aesthetics, its corsair, im never buying something from them thats perifs, but cases and other stuff looks great
tall tide
rainbow rgb is horrid imo
brittle pagoda
yeahh
tall tide
i know thats kidna off topic from this conversation
but stick to either one color scheme please
or
color shift
brittle pagoda
yeah me too
check my keyboard out its in battlestations
youll have to scroll up
not much tho
tall tide
apex 5 is a mechanical kb lol
brittle pagoda
its made to imitate a mechanical, it may feel like a blue but its imitating it.
tall tide
yeah
brittle pagoda
nothing wrong with it, im just sayin
tall tide
still i basically consider it to be one
plus it has blue switches sorta
its honestly a better sounding blue switch lol
brittle pagoda
its got a blue mechanism to fake the sound then the membrane registers the click
might feel mushy a bit for some with sensitive fingers
i know im one thats able to feel that membrane click style so i went for the 7 instead
tall tide
doesent feel mushy ima b real
i had a ornata chroma which is a membrane keyboard
i used it,
felt mushy as hell
tried a mech keb that wasnt mine
and i know now
that this feels exactly like a mech keyboard
brittle pagoda
mechs will change everything for ya
and yeah my friend who has an apex 5 says the same stuff
its just a really good imitation
if i liked blues and clicks i woulda got a blue maybe,
after hearing all this atleast
tall tide
im going to say it's mechanical and membrane
brittle pagoda
its hybrid so yeah
tall tide
yeah basically
next keyboard ill get is most likely the apex pro
but that'll be far into the future
till my apex 5 is worn out
foggy escarp
Halo Habibi
tall tide
i plan to get an arctis pro wireless
cant wait
and with leather earcups
also new keycaps for my apex 5
some amazon gray and black keycaps
they look cool
brittle pagoda
i like wires honestly unless its a think you can take off and use wireless, but use it wired later/
brittle pagoda
does the apex 5 have cherry like switches?
tall tide
i dont like wires lol, harder to use my mouse
i've only used a mechanical keyboard once before
and idk if it was cherry or not
it was probably a red
brittle pagoda
like on a headset, you can use it without an aux cord, but also use it with one once it dies
how did it feel
any feedback or smooth all the way down
tall tide
heavy
i dont think it was a blue
not tactical
but close enough for me to say the apex 5 feels mechanical
foggy escarp
is apex 5 & 7 mechanical?
brittle pagoda
so a linear with a heavy spring?
tall tide
i can figure out what kb it is
brittle pagoda
apex 5 is a hybrid mechanical where as apex 7 is fully mechanical
with options for browns, blues, and reds
brittle pagoda
ahh
tall tide
was probably a red switch
tall tide
i saw a lubed apex pro video with theese keycaps that looked cool
so i decided to get them for myself
didnt get them yet though
brittle pagoda
id get hyperX puddings but, i hate the heinous hyperx logo on the spacebar
would be perfect if not for that
brittle pagoda
not for everyone, i can see why since you hate the RGB overload types
tall tide
I like rgb but not too much lol
Ill send you a link of the keycaps im getting, and how it looks like irl
zenith wyvern
just goty an apex 100 sup
stray axle
i got caught
