I will be real with ya
The buttons that push in on the sticks feel different compared to like a PS3 PS4 or XBOX1 or XBOX 360 controller
But other than that.
Seriously everything feels amazing on it
I highly reccomend it for single player games such as Tomb Raider

pulsar fossil
@rancid raptor you can get it through Steam
rancid raptor
@pulsar fossil thx
pulsar fossil
Yw :)
pulsar fossil
Not bad
rancid raptor
oh, rip XD steam installs the client and the client installs 3dmark @pulsar fossil
pulsar fossil
Client-ception
rancid raptor
so does that make it a client in a client in a client ?!?!?!? @pulsar fossil
pulsar fossil
Pretty much
rancid raptor
haha what specs have you got @pulsar fossil
pulsar fossil
Ryzen 7 1800X
32 GB DDR4 Tridentz RGB RAM
480GB nvme SSD from XPG
MSI GTX 1080ti 11GB
NZXT Kraken X71 CPU cooler (might be wrong about the model, tripple fan version)
So a decent rig @rancid raptor
rancid raptor
16 gb precision corsair ram

rancid raptor
oh nice because i have a share in a company called awd-it
tropic hollow
@pulsar fossil guess who's laptop got refused to repair by apple but school's doing it for free
chilly edge
@rancid raptor i ordered some stuff from that place my god the delivery was atrocious. Customer service not so much
pulsar fossil
Didn't know your laptop died
chilly edge
Ordered 1-2 day delivery on like 26th and didnt get the package until the 9th or something. Got a refund for the delivery though
pulsar fossil
The main GPU is dead in mine
tropic hollow
battery has gone to absolute sh*t...cant use for more than 10 min without plugged in
rancid raptor
@chilly edge oh i am very sorry to hear that ?
tropic hollow
oh man
pulsar fossil
Ohhh
tropic hollow
yeah
pulsar fossil
ooof
tropic hollow
big oof.
pulsar fossil
Battery life is still fine on mine
tropic hollow
and my screen is screwed too
pulsar fossil
At least a couple of hours
tropic hollow
mine has lines unless in certain position and screen burn ins often for some reason
pulsar fossil
Dang
chilly edge
that sounds...
on one hand it sounds terrible
on the other it sounds normal for apple products
rancid raptor
right, @pulsar fossil i am going to bench
tropic hollow
it's an okay laptop apart from the fact that for the same price I could have just gotten a definitely decent gaming pc
it was almost 2k
chilly edge
That does make a lot of sense
pulsar fossil
In my experience Apple laptops last far longer than other brands
pulsar fossil
My Lenovo would die after 3 months, get fixed, die again after 3 months, get fixed and then die again after 3 months
tropic hollow
ooooooooof
pulsar fossil
That last time they couldn't fix it
So now I have a laptop that's a newer model with a newer CPU but with a shitty GPU
tropic hollow
rip...if i could give anyone advice
get 2016 macbook pro
most reliable, still thin and has usb ports
pulsar fossil
I went from 17.3" - Core i7 6820HK - 32 GB RAM - 512 GB SSD + 1 TB HDD, GTX 1070 to a 15" - Core i7 8750H, 16GB RAM, 256 GB SSD + 1 TB HDD, GTX 1050ti
I don't know about you @chilly edge but that seems like a poor deal to me
pulsar fossil
Just get cables from Anker
Problem solved
Plus they will replace the cable if it dies
At least they did for me after a year of use

Ahhh 😍😍 so pretty @vast owl
I also like that stream dac? I think thats what it is called?
vast owl
I know right, inboxing now @fiery monolith
fiery monolith
Tell me how you like the feel of the controller
It is uhhh
Very mouth watering to me
vast owl
I bought a stand for it too
@fiery monolith will do, they say you associate quality with weight, so hopefully it feels solid
fiery monolith
It feels nice to me. I play at a desk, i was playing Batman Arkham Asylum with it last night for about 4-5 hours, i played it with it in my lap. Felt nice to hold :)
Also thats an awesome stand dude 😂
small spindle
I need that stand in my life
vast owl
@small spindle zavvi have a good range
small spindle
I will have to check that out
vast owl
Loads of cool ones, it was between this and dead pool
fiery monolith
Zavvi have a site? Or is it like an amazon place or?
vast owl
Yea website, great for gaming collectibles
Zavvi.com and go to the gaming section
Have literally no idea how to connect it
As in to steam and games
vast owl
20 mins and still no idea, think it’s going out the window
Update- switched to origin and Apex Legends.... and BOOM, worked instantly. Winner
fiery monolith
@vast owl Its just plug and play. Some steam games are probably not supported. It would be under "Controller Settings" +Steam should auto detect that youre using a controller when you boot the game
vast owl
@fiery monolith it did for Origin, I’ll try steam again tonight, could have just been a funny 5 minutes
rancid raptor
@vast owl pc dude
digital furnace
thank you!
vast owl
Asus are great too, my 4K is Asus, but that was closer to $350
The BenQ is the GL2460BH
odd burrow
you can get a used 4k for around 200 if you're lucky
vast owl
24” currently at £119 on UK amazon
@odd burrow exactly, monitors are always on things like Facebook market. I often see Predator monitors for a decent price
vast owl
odd burrow
there's an rtx 2080 used for 500
vast owl
Bottom two are BenQ 1080p and top 4K Asus
odd burrow
jesus haha
vast owl
Yea but it’s fine for most games and runs the new Apex Legends comfortaby
I’ll look that up thanks mate
odd burrow
the rtx 2060 is really powerful for the price
vast owl
£380 that’s actually quite decent
odd burrow
check reviews
odd burrow
yeah
i can't say as i have another but my friend has it
i use an shitty gtx 1070
not shitty but you know
vast owl
4 monitor ports I see, I wish they had an extra HDMI or DVI port
vast owl
Got ya, probably what I feel about mine, fine for 90% of what I do... but... POWER!!
I actually run 5 monitors...
But ones unusual
odd burrow
i use 2
vast owl
Ones actually a mini 5” monitor and sits inside my case and runs the cam software so I can always see real-time stats
odd burrow
i have an xbox one x
vast owl
I’ve just upgraded from the Steelseries 3 to the 7
I have an Xbox, PS4 too
So here’s the catch...
The 7 is epic!! But if your wanting to use the wireless features they do not work on the Xbox
But they do on everything else..
Because I used it on all platforms I don’t really mind, but then if Xbox is your only platform you may want to get the wired pro for a similar price
Because you get the DAC
odd burrow
according to lennart steelseries is partnering with xbox to make a headset this year
i use the 5
odd burrow
well i'm pretty lazy and always forget to charge
vast owl
Good thing is I sold my 3’s for 80% of what I paid after a year, they hold good value so worst case I’ll just sell my 7’a
odd burrow
well i'd say that if you're into charging go ahead
but the 5 and 3 you can replace the cord
can you use bluetooth adapters on xbox?
vast owl
Potentially I’m just not sure how that effects the chat functions
vast owl
One day, all part of the upgrading process, bloody expensive trying to do everything haha
odd burrow
there's usually some deals and discounts at the beggining of summer
vast owl
Yea I’m always on the hunt, I got a good deal on the 7’s
odd burrow
or there might be easter discounts
@pulsar fossil
haha
and i wan't a new case for my PC with rgb
want*
40£
worth it?
or that
70£
@vast owl btw how much RAM do you have?
vast owl
16gb Corsair vengeance. DDR4
2 x 8gb
I’ll add some more soon but again.. have to save
vast owl
Nice cases, I like the clean NZXT range
odd burrow
is it single channel that the vengeance uses?
oh
sorry
you said 2 x 8
haha
i want more rgb
soon gonna buy a new motherboard
vast owl
Me too, so that’s motherboard, CPU, GPU, Ram lol so basically a new pc
vast owl
Nice, I have an ASUS motherboard which was highly rated at the time
Intel I5-6500/3.2GHz CPU
Zotac GeForce GTX950 graphics card
NZXT RL-KRX52 240MM
Asus Z170-A skylake SLi/CrossFire Motherboard
Phanteks P400S case
Phanteks LED lighting
4 x Corsair LED fans
2 x 8GB corsair Vengeance LED Ram
odd burrow
asus or msi when it comes to motherboard?
and i might buy a new rgb monitor
razer is a bit overpriced in my opinion
and btw i see you like halo
#infinitehype
odd burrow
yep
and the problem with ultra wide is that you can't see everything in detail
however it's still nice
and my CPU is a core i7
vast owl
I hoping to rebuild everything when I can get a bigger room to create a studio/streaming den
Nice
odd burrow
i'm getting a bigger room soon
It's shitty rn
And my desk is old af
Haha
And a bunch of halo stuff beside me
It's small in an apartment like this

My two love touching my 60” tv with buttery fingers, drives me mad
odd burrow
Haven't cleaned it
Yeah
My pc specs are decent but I'm gonna upgrade and move soon
And get more RGB
I also haven't used my PC after an incident
Not so much atleast
But it's first now
vast owl
All takes time, mines been 2 years in the making
graceful flame
I’m still building my pc
It’s not gonna be that good but it will be an upgrade from my current one
fiery monolith
All i can say @odd burrow is dont focus on rgb. If $ is an issue do parts over rgb. Rgb can always be cleaned up with some simple light strips or RGB RAm or a RGB AIO cpu cooler :)
odd burrow
Yeah I know
But since I'm moving room I want it to fit
Though money really isn't a huge problem
rancid raptor
potatofudgebar is mine @vast owl

I’m at work dude... and Valentines tonight. I’m away this weekend so really I’m looking at Monday now mate sorry
odd burrow
Does anyone know the best place to get a apex m750 tkl?
And the nordic version on the website
Is it Norwegian and danish?
Or swedish?
We don't use the danish and Norwegian alphabet
Naah not Amazon although we've got many other electronic websites
Like maxgaming, CDON netonnet.....
humble rampart
@odd burrow Nordic version is with swedish/danish/norwegian characters
so for instance you'll have ø and ö on the same button
odd burrow
ah i see
thanks! @humble rampart
but how do you choose which one?
is it on the steelseries engine or is it a combo?
chilly edge
It'll be a combo
odd burrow
would be better if you could choose default on the engine but still nice
humble rampart
@odd burrow Windows 10 takes care of that, no worries ;) you just gotta ignore what the physical keys say

The only thing good about my setup is the steelseries peripherals

@rigid mulch that’s a start though, my setups taken over 2 years to put together

You're better off with a Ryzen system for the future upgradability @fathom ingot
And also Rx570 is better than the 1050Ti
serene forum
Id only go Ryzen for upgradability if you intend on getting a new cpu in about 2 years. if the pc is gonna last 4+ your better off with a i5 and and a 1050ti for budget, or a 1060 , both are amazing budget cards.
noble oak
1060 and a i5 is a good combo
Had mine for a long time now
Still runs games at high 65+fps

I didn't pay for any of it 😛 Won it in a giveaway in November 😃
Oh.forgot my SteelSeries Apex keyboard...and Siberia 350 headset...
Wish they still made the Apex..the original one was the bomb

@blissful sierra absolutely sick build! Gratz on the win
I just wish I could win a single competition/ giveaway.
blissful sierra
I have been entering every giveaway since September..finally got lucky..
Thanks 😄 I was already in the stages of budgeting to build a new PC with a similar build...(wasn't gonna be a 2080TI GPU)

You can't activate it in the software?

Ok wait

Whats CPI
chilly edge
because button 6 on my Rival310 is CPI shift, but it might not be the same on the Rival600
CPI - Counts per Inch
Measure of how far your mouse moves per inch, basically just sensitivity
pulsar fossil
So if the button doesn't physically work, I'd say make a support ticket to get help.
Either here in #official-support or via a ticket on the website
noble oak
O

@noble oak, A support ticket has been created for your request. Check your DMs to reply.

@chilly edge is correct

@celest schooner Good Pics
celest schooner
oh thanks lol
naive dune
I know
Windows does not detect a “button 6”
you need to change it to a keyboard button
i have mine set to “p”
@pulsar fossil @noble oak @chilly edge
noble oak
@naive dune i set mine to some keyboard button like, prnt scrn and it didnt work
naive dune
Hmm. If that is the case then I do not know how else to help sorry.
noble oak
Dx
Can u send a pic of the button 6 in ur mouae
Mouse
Like pull the side off and show me the hole

Hello! Where can I find the rival 106 mouse?
split marsh
Yes, I saw it, on their website can not be ordered not in one country
I heard that you can buy a mouse in Hong Kong? but I can't find her there
split marsh
@pulsar fossil yes, I just tried ebay
@pulsar fossil and it is not on sale
@pulsar fossil I am ready to order it even from China, you just tell me where?
split marsh
@pulsar fossil I'm understood, thank you

Is a noctua nh-9B SE2 good enough for a i7 4790k overclock (4.6-7ish) I have good case fans on a NZXT H2 Silent (front door open) I have an option to get a cheap Kraken x31 (I suppose if not as good as air cooler I could use for gfx card) (other option being upgrade the noctuas fans and then use old ones in case?

owchies
Anyone know of any cool white keycaps that are compatible with the Apex M750? I'm changing from an all black build to an all white one, and I want to keep my keyboard 😛
celest schooner
@austere prawn let me know if you find any. I've been looking for some as well. The best I have been able to do is 3d print my own keycaps
austere prawn
@celest schooner will do buddy! @chilly edge has already helped me narrow down the type I want but if I find any stunning deals i'll make sure to ping you :^)
celest schooner
Cool! Thanks
proven moss
wtf does feel the curve even mean with banana series?
proven moss
i was about to say imagine pushing down a key and it slides over when you push it
fiery monolith
xd
would be pretty funny
I also feel that those kinda keys would break quite easily depending on the amount of force you use on your keyboard
fiery monolith
Just bought more RAM 😄
muted viper
nice
noble oak
@fiery monolith Corsair Vengence ? it has to RGB 😛 Vengence Pro
fiery monolith
Sadly not, my RoseWill fans have lots of lights to them 😅 so i decided to go with no more rgb(ny pc it pretty well lit already)
muted viper
😄
fast jewel
@fiery monolith dang thats fast, mine is hyundai electronics 2x4gb ddr2 800MHz or something
fiery monolith
2666MHz is usually what ram starts at. Whenever i first got my 16GB of 3000MHz RAM. (Yes, now i have 32GB). BIOS decided to start it at 2666MHz instead of 3000MHz. So I had to go in there and change it. Most newer board just... Let you change it
You also can get RAM that clocks at wayy slower speeds such as...
This one...
Clocks at 2133MHz (Found on Amazon)
Point is, there are lots of slow, and faster speeds. 3000MHz being the "Slowest" you would want for a gaming PC. @fast jewel

Thats the internals, I have a AIO water cooler for my CPU though

I have a soft spot for that mouse :(

rose bison
Is there such a thing as too much red?
celest schooner
@rose bison sometimes, but not in your scenario. looks sick
rose bison
Thanks!
muted viper
yep
sudden verge
What's the go to cpu cooler for a slight i7 4790k over clock in a NZXT H2 Silent case (4 sticks of ram clearance wise) does not have the room for dual / triple kraken etc.. I have an older Noctua cpu cooler (the D15 might be to big for ram) in there that does ok... but on OC might get hawt... any recommendations?
bright delta
Thanks again to @humble rampart and @signal sage for helping me with my issues getting my headset stand 😁😁😁
noble oak
How much is that headset stand? @bright delta
@fiery monolith are u using Ryzen 2700x prism wraith cooler or custom cooler ?
fiery monolith
Thats what my h150i is, its a all in one cpu water cooler/radiator

Apex M750 or M750 TKL? I can't decide! >.<
I just bought a desk in my tiny single bedroom apartment and finally I am buying keyboard, GAME DAC and a display to attach to my laptop...it's like 5 days that I fight with my order because I don't know if to buy the TKL version or I like the full size layer more 😹
rose bison
Well I have the tlk
Soo I would recommend if you want as much desk space and plus who actually uses the num pad?
rose bison
For?
muted viper
school, most of the numbers i enter on my pc etc
rose bison
Well @dark linden what are you gonna do with the keyboard?
dark linden
I develop videogames...and I also play videogames
but honestly I've never been attached to the numpad
mine it's more like a 'how the layout looks' OCD issue
😛
rose bison
Well I like how compact tlk is
dark linden
me as well...but I have a full size wrist rest
dark linden
and I my fear is to kill the look of my desk with a less wider keyboard XD
muted viper
😄
rose bison
Well that’s how it looks for me
But with a wrist rest it would be a different story
You should just get the full size
dark linden
yeah...I think that's what I'll do
rose bison
Nice!
rose bison
Yeah in that case get the full one
rose bison
Bye
noble oak
Is it Corsair K63 tkl ? @rose bison
rose bison
No we are talking about steelseries
noble oak
@rose bison keyboard on ur desk ?
noble oak
👌
rose bison
Lol it’s fine
bright delta
noble oak
@bright delta thanks. I saw it really cheap somewhere can't remember now or free with something. Never mind.
bright delta
@noble oak I got mine free as I had enough points with Steelsquad 😁

Its nice stand.

@muted viper for the disks i've got a RAID thing because my pc will die any minute and when it set them up it registered them separately and never made them invisible again
the actual RAID think is registered as E:
north harness
tkl seems like a lot of money
muted viper
you dont say?
celest schooner
@north harness facts... But its worth every penny
If your talking about the SS one
muted viper
^^^^^^^^^^
it has RGB it has || slightly questionable || switches what more could you want @celest schooner @north harness
celest schooner
@muted viperwut you talking about?
The switches are great
Per key RGB with image sync
Best thing since sliced bread
muted viper
well they are custom switchs
i always question proprietary switches
not saying they are bad
(i only own the m400 so who am i to judge)
@celest schooner
celest schooner
Fair
chilly edge
the QX2 switches are just like other switches
muted viper
they are?
chilly edge
Well, they're made by Gateron
muted viper
are they as quiet
chilly edge
so are some other switches, such as Zealios
They're probably about the same as Gateron Reds
no doubt different, possibly factory lubed, but i'm just speculating
fast jewel
@chilly edge arent they supposed to be like cherry mx reds
chilly edge
Gateron quite a few switches that have the same characteristics as Cherry's
Such as the Blue, Red, Brown and Black switches
and then Silent Reds/Blacks
Gateron reds are similar to Cherry MX reds, but smoother
fast jewel
i kind of regret not getting a kb with clicky switches but its fine
chilly edge
What clicky switches?
fast jewel
blues
fast jewel
honestly razer greens are nice too
chilly edge
i tried some Razer Greens at a shop
fast jewel
if i could have an Apex M750 with those switches i would be happu
chilly edge
i never want to go near a Razer kkeyboard again
if you wish, you could buy an Apex M750, open it up, desolder the switches then solder new ones in
but that's a lot of money
fast jewel
i hate the actual keyboards from razer but the switches are nice
also the lighting, i wish my Apex could do per-key reactive
like the MSI laptops
chilly edge
per-key reactive is something that can be found on more enthusiast grade keyboards
fast jewel
such as A. literally every razer kb
B. logitech g513 (iirc)
C. MSI keyboards
D. literally every keyboard that i have seen after buying my kb :,)
chilly edge
lighting is nice and all, but not necessary
it's more of a Gamer thing
I actually can't stand looking at my G213
fast jewel
honestly i really like the lighting
SSE has some issues with it, e.g. the orange flashing when GameSense is disabled
chilly edge
just realised: desoldering the apex m750 would be a nightmare because the leds are resting in the switch
fast jewel
oof
