Oh

It’s Black Friday try to scoop up something cheap from steel series

This is in the market

[blazing sable]

i was wanting to get the new nova pro wireless but i heard the anc thing touched ppls ears and got kinda hesitant

but since WC makes some replacements i bet they fix the issue

however

they look kinda funny

[brisk anvil]

Looks great

I see a pair of what looks like AirPods Max in there.. They're great :)

Is the color difference between the two screens noticable?

The main screen looks way warmer

[dark ether]

The main 3440 x 1440 is an ips panel. The 32" in vert. is a VA. I only use it for chat and discord, etc..its noticeable but I wasn't going to drop another 2.5k to get another ips.

[dark ether]

Yeah. I use them for my mac mini. If you look closely there is a mac mini under the shelf on the right of the middle support bar.

[brisk anvil]

That's fair :D

[brisk anvil]

Nice! Is that also the reason for two keyboards?

[dark ether]

I use a USB switcher for my KB/Mouse. My main keeb is used for both. The 2nd keeb on the shelf is to remind me to fix the stabilizers soon. Sound really bad.

[brisk anvil]

:D

[normal geyser]

I think i'm done tbh, might upgrade my cpu to a 13900 if theres a sale, but atm I'm good

Also want to put a 50in 4k above the two monitors

[blazing sable]

dope

[blazing sable]

i got a 3080 recently but already feel like i need a better gpu heh

the new fortnite graphics are giving my 3080 a run for its money

[buoyant fjord]

I started with a 1050 ti, eventually got a 3060, and then I recently got the 3080. So I'm still in the honeymoon phase

[blazing sable]

yeh

im getting 70 fps average on fortnite rn lol

[buoyant fjord]

planning on swapping everything into a new case next christmas when I get a new mobo and cpu

[blazing sable]

keep in mind i am on a 4k monitor

[blazing sable]

dope

[buoyant fjord]

not sure if I want amd or intel, but by then I'd go for the top line either way

[blazing sable]

only time will tell

[blazing sable]

heres my setup at the moment

[buoyant fjord]

clean af

[blazing sable]

the purples show up really terribly on the picture

not sure why

but yeah my specs are:
rtx 3080 oc
i7 12700k
64 gb of ddr4 3600 mhz cl 16
2tb skhynix platinum ssd
1tb skhynix gold ssd

and finally a stupid amount of 13 fans

[odd pawn]

64GB? what do you use for pc for?

[vapid marsh]

Nasa rocket takeoff?

To calculate the preasure and stuff

[random zealot]

Nice

[blazing sable]

well i don't use all 64 gigs usually its nice to have it for when you do

especially with games getting more and more advanced

i find myself using 40 gigs on a daily basis so it's not too overkill

[odd pawn]

still sounds unreal 😐

32GB of ram and I am not even hitting full load tho

[vapid marsh]

You got 4 games open at the same time. If you are honest you would not need that.

[odd pawn]

nah bruv, i am just loading the ram just to prove that 32gig is sufficient and i have no idea how does the other user uses 40gigs daily

[odd pawn]

even so if i do rendering i dont even hit 20 gigs

[vapid marsh]

Thats just too much of a flex

So shush. I feel poor just looking at stuff in this channel.

[idle cobalt]

I have 128 gb of ram

How the hell do you people get money for such strong setups?

[sour marlin]

I mean, no offence but your setup is believable. But some people here either take loans for graphic cards or work by finding a golden bars laying around.

[idle cobalt]

Wdym lmao

You save up for a long ass time and build the most ballen computer possible. Then just save up every month for gpu upgrades. When the new gpu drops upgrade it

[iron hound]

Amen Brother

[livid bramble]

Setup upgrade!!!

[patent flax]

Not bad actually! I have a secret lab titan with the magnetic squishy pillow and I put a slight lean on it. I normally have my squads discord streams up there lol

[fathom garnet]

I find that looking up at my monitor like that feels good on my upper spine.

[random zealot]

[earnest orbit]

i need to change my pants holy hell

[blazing sable]

yo we got the same clock

[dark ether]

that’s rlly nice

[blazing sable]

ty

[dark ether]

wish i could get something that nice lol

i’ve bought a maingear vybe

i got it on black friday

it’s a year old now

[blazing sable]

that was me before the last summer, i spent all summer working to get it

[dark ether]

oh, nice

i have limits that’s the thing

don’t have space in my room

barely fit 2 monitors

and the second is rlly small

[blazing sable]

dang

[dark ether]

yeah

[blazing sable]

my desk was really small so i built this one for my new pc

[dark ether]

i’m upgrading keyboard for christmas

from a steel series

3 or something

[blazing sable]

i got wood and stained and glossed it from scratch

[blazing sable]

nice

[dark ether]

i’m going for like k-4 tkl from xtrfy

the pc that i have is awesome

runs COD great

[blazing sable]

i have the 2017 apex pro

[dark ether]

oh nice

also does fortnite give ur pc some problems?

it lags a lot of me and specs isn’t lacking

i got 3070, 5 5600x

16gb ram

[blazing sable]

its really laggy with the new graphics

but im running on a 4k monitor

[blazing sable]

well not lagggy

just low fps

70-60

[dark ether]

yeah that’s what i meant

[blazing sable]

yeah i got a 3080

64gb of 3600 cl16 ram

i7 12700k

[dark ether]

oh, nice i def want to upgrade the cooler

[blazing sable]

my cooler is some rog strix aio

[dark ether]

i’m running stock, but idk if it wil give my power supply problems

[blazing sable]

oh

my power supply is like kinda scaring me

[dark ether]

might want like a nzxt 240mm

[dark ether]

yeah same here, pc is sometimes a little too hot for safety

espicallt on summer, 80 degrees fahrenheit with AC blasting

might want to upgrade to 650 watt power supply

[blazing sable]

mine is making like electrical noises

[dark ether]

oh get that checked out that’s a huge fire hazard

[blazing sable]

it has a warranty but RMAing it would require me not having my pc for a week(s)

[dark ether]

better than not having a pc at all no?

if it blows up

[blazing sable]

lol

[dark ether]

idk

[blazing sable]

im thinking of buying an all new one

[dark ether]

new supply?

[blazing sable]

and then rmaing my old psu

and selling it

[dark ether]

that seems like a decent idea

[blazing sable]

my current one is a but overkill

and i dont like the super long power supply form factor

so im probably gonna get a 1000w platinum psu instead of my 1300w gold

[dreamy hare]

Entering 2023 with my ideal work/gaming setup in my very own home for the first year

[fathom garnet]

80f is only 27c... That's like ideal idle temps.. Are you sure it's not 80c? 80c is more than fine. It's when it gets to 95c you'll really want to start thinking about your cooling situation. For example, I have a 3080 12gb that runs 85c all day when gaming. That's still within safe temps. If your CPU is hitting 80c while gaming.. Well then there might be something wrong there.. and from what you've stated.. a better cooler would benefit you. Even then, 80c under a full load on 5000 series CPU is well within safe operating temps, especially in the summer.

[dreamy hare]

Top tip a thin layer of tape on the front of the apex keyboards with wrist rests will save the front of your board from scratches

[dark ether]

i’m saying the room is hitting 80 fahrenheit, my room not the pc, i’m just saying that the stock cooler is giving off too much heat than i would like, room is 80 degrees fahrenheit with AC blasting…

Merry steelseriesmas

[brisk anvil]

🎄

[random zealot]

Very good colors for Christmas

[last sequoia]

anyone know what this button does

when i press it

nothing happene

[drifting geyser]

@last sequoia you hold it and im pretty sure it just brings you to the menu on the mini display to change illumination and actuation rtc.

[last sequoia]

this keyboard doesnt have a mini display

[heavy sapphire]

I’m pretty sure it plays/pauses music could be wrong

[last sequoia]

IT PAUSES YT VIDEOS

THANK YOU

[heavy sapphire]

No problem

[brisk anvil]

It can also skip (2 quick clicks) or rewind (3 quick clicks) :)

[cyan path]

That looks epic congrats!

[fathom garnet]

Also, if you click in the volume wheel, it'll mute/unmute.

[blazing sable]

just picked myself up some goodies for xmas

[loud fable]

I picked up the Nova Pro today and i still need to figure out why it was so expensive, maybe i find it out when i play with it a little bit longer ^^

[blazing sable]

couldn't tell ya, haven't tried any nova headsets yet

[loud fable]

i had the Arctis 7 before but that headset was a little bit uncomfortable, especially because i wear glasses

[blazing sable]

i have the normal pro wireless rn but it has the steelseries crack of doom so i figured i would try the nova

i cant live without the swapable battery lol

[echo lotus]

Always gotta be ready w/ SteelSeries!

[daring ivy]

please clean the mousepad

[echo lotus]

oh, I do. That's just recent dust and crud cause my cats dont know how to stay off of my desk.

[daring ivy]

understandable

[echo lotus]

i feel like if its looking like this again though im just not cleaning it right. lol. what do you recommend for the longevity?

[daring ivy]

i just clean my deskmat in the tub handwashing with a soft towel to really get in there, then throw it in the dryer on the delicate option

i always expect that mousepad/deskmat will last a decent amount of years regardless

[echo lotus]

okay so i'm at least cleaning it right then. just cause of the colder months i ended up picking up a heated towel to wrap around it to try and dry it off since we're in an apartment with a shared laundry space. works pretty well tbh

[daring ivy]

yeah pets will just be pets

especially kitties so theyll just end up dirty quicker regardless so no biggie

[echo lotus]

i'll have to pick up a new one soon anyhow. they tried needing on it so i have some minor noticable frays in the mat.

i just realized i spelt that wrong lol.

[daring ivy]

the kitty strikes with no hesitation

[echo lotus]

especially when your dead broke for the holidays. lol. sister got me the keyboard as a present since i been out of work lmao.

Gotta love the snow.

hows your night going?

[daring ivy]

goin good just put a payment down on the nova pros for a monthly thing

just waiting for my spring semester of college to start so i can get back to working at my uni for some extra cash

[echo lotus]

oh nice. How are they? i got stuck getting out of brand for headphones cause of these little trouble makers. had some Arctis 1's.

[daring ivy]

dont know just yet, they wont come til jan. 3

[echo lotus]

ahhh.

[daring ivy]

been using the arctis 5 in the meantime

[echo lotus]

oh niiice. btw, i know the GG sonar works best with series headphones but is there a better preference i could be using for something that's not in the field? i messed around with it a little but i'm still new to the GG platform.

[daring ivy]

dont know tbh

[echo lotus]

something i'll just have to mess around with more then.

@swift kiln love your setup, looks cozy af!

also I SEE THAT AC CASE

[upbeat breach]

I like how your joy cons colors match your keyboard and fan

[swift kiln]

muhahaha

bruh @upbeat breach i just noticed that wow it is cute af

[iron kayak]

Not to flex my cables @worn canopy but sit and stand desk cables management

[versed panther]

oh wow that's clean

but that keyboard 🤢

and mouse? :o

[iron kayak]

There both 4 years old

I’m wait for the apex pro to be in stock

[swift kiln]

i wish i could find a larger standing desk i could buy

[iron kayak]

Yah I might put a bigger table top on the base of mine

[swift kiln]

see i wouldve done that but im afraid to just sit one on top and if i epoxy it might mess up the table i feel

if i try to take it apart i might fry it

[versed panther]

I mean screws are a thing?

[swift kiln]

not afraid to take apart a pc but totally terrified to take apart a desk

[versed panther]

lmaoo

[iron kayak]

Yah lucky mine is just screwed in so it wouldn’t be that hard

[swift kiln]

if i find one that has plainly visible parts then i wouldnt mind

but of course theyre meant to be sleek

[iron kayak]

Also @jolly turtle needs to show his setup with his new pc

[swift kiln]

^^^

[jolly turtle]

truuuuuuuuuu

[versed panther]

do it :p

[dark ether]

so

wow

[novel rivet]

Opinions? IK cord management it’s hard with a glass desk I can’t put holes in

[versed panther]

love it!

[novel rivet]

Why do people like the long ways screens I don’t understand the benefit? They look dope and all but I am confused

[versed panther]

coding, twitch chat, discord

[ashen sorrel]

@novel rivet I can fit more stuff vertically

[novel rivet]

Would be helpful with chat true

[ashen sorrel]

I like having a longer chat for streams

[novel rivet]

I need to buy a new monitor. My second one atm is a tv 🤢

[ashen sorrel]

Plus I can better fit discord Spotify and stream chat on one screen vertically than I could horizontally

[novel rivet]

Oh nice

[ashen sorrel]

Just for what I use it for I get more benefit out of it being in a vertical position. I’m keeping my monitors but I’m doing a massive pc upgrade in September

[warm fractal]

that really trips me out, a portrait monitor to the right of a main one

[ashen sorrel]

I prefer it to the right tbh plus it’s tricky cuz the wall mount I use is trash

I tried having both monitors horizontal but it ended wirh like a 2 ft gap between them

[warm fractal]

ah thats fair enough

[ashen sorrel]

Ya but I quite enjoy the portrait monitor tbh I find it useful for streaming.

[swift kiln]

are you hanging the boxes like posters? nice

[hoary yoke]

yep

[ashen sorrel]

That’s a cool idea I think you just gave me inspiration @hoary yoke

[swift kiln]

good idea i have empty wall behind my monitors and a bunch of boxes

facts

[hoary yoke]

yeah its a good idea

[woeful dust]

Not new img

[ashen sorrel]

I’ll try it out when I upgrade in September

[woeful dust]

I now have a subwoofer under the monitor

[sick solar]

that TKL tho 😍

[ashen sorrel]

Yo is that the h700 or h710 @woeful dust

[woeful dust]

Nono thats Corsair

And the mice is Logitech g502 hero

I got pro wireless though

Should clean my table once lmao

[ashen sorrel]

What case do you use I’m really dumb and can’t tell the difference between the new H710 models and the h700

I just love that nzxt case though I should’ve gotten one but I went with an h500i

[woeful dust]

@ashen sorrel h700

Well it was orginally a h710 but i got rid of the beep led strips

They were dysletic

[ashen sorrel]

Thanks it’s a sick case I love the look of the beauty panel in the 700 over the 500

[spark oak]

Nzxt cases are kinda meh

They look good but they have pretty bad airflow

[ashen sorrel]

I like my nzxt case honestly but it’s time for me to go for my dream case the 011 dynamic

@spark oak tell me about it they don’t have that much in place to provide airflow

[shrewd barn]

Alright I’m here sorry for the wait

[ashen sorrel]

Like all the front fans in my h500i can pull air from is this tiny 2 inch by 15 inch section with a bunch of little holes

[shrewd barn]

^^

its so bad

[ashen sorrel]

Yo that setup is nice yuli

[woeful dust]

@shrewd barn corsair aio and ram right?

[ashen sorrel]

So many monitors lol

[shrewd barn]

im running 66c at max load on my GPU its to high

yep and yes

i might be getting 2 more soon

[ashen sorrel]

Ya that’s the vengeance rgb pro I run the white version

[shrewd barn]

6 seems goos

[woeful dust]

@spark oak thats why i got a aio

[spark oak]

That doesn’t help the bad airflow tho...

[ashen sorrel]

My new build will have a much better aio than I had before

Ya only way to save the airflow is to remove the panels on that case lol

[spark oak]

Just get a good air cooler instead

[zealous pulsar]

Holy sh*t @shrewd barn you got enough monitors😂

[spark oak]

Dark rock pro

[shrewd barn]

no

[ashen sorrel]

I don’t want an air cooler

[shrewd barn]

no i dont

i want more

[spark oak]

Or nhd15

[ashen sorrel]

I’m getting an aio also a new case and cpu

[zealous pulsar]

Lol

[shrewd barn]

im getting a 220t or o11 soon

[hoary yoke]

yuli not enough monitors if u dont have atleast 10 what are you doing

[spark oak]

Aios are overpriced and usually pretty meh compare to good air coolers

[shrewd barn]

im dropping $200 on ll120 fans

[spark oak]

Don’t

[shrewd barn]

boutta make my wallet cry

the word dont will not stop me

[spark oak]

Check out the p400a digital @shrewd barn

[ashen sorrel]

The word don’t won’t stop me cuz I can’t read

I love the look of the Corsair h100i platinum SE so I’m getting it

[shrewd barn]

ew

[hoary yoke]

gamers really reck out wallets for an area in the corner of our rooms

[shrewd barn]

p400a is stinky

[ashen sorrel]

I’m making an nice white build

[spark oak]

Oof, white build

[hoary yoke]

What

white builds are op

[ashen sorrel]

It’s gonna be white red and black kinda Canadian themed

[spark oak]

10 times more expensive than a regular build

[shrewd barn]

if i go white im done for

i have black everything

i wanna do white though, sadly i cant, so the razer o11 will do

[worn canopy]

@shrewd barn i one day aspire to have as many screens as you. amazing

[spark oak]

I want to make an anti RGB black and chrome build

[ashen sorrel]

Dude I don’t care I like the looks plus I want it canadian themed. I’m making my dream build

[woeful dust]

@spark oak aio looks cleaner though

[spark oak]

Depends

But Canada doesn’t exist...

[ashen sorrel]

Canada is actually a cake

You heard it here first

[woeful dust]

What

[iron kayak]

I can only wish i had that many screens

[woeful dust]

Finland dont exist wydm

Its a cover for russia

!

[ashen sorrel]

Y’all really think Australia exists

Lmaoo

[shrewd barn]

haha yeah, its nice to have a lot @worn canopy

[spark oak]

Sweden > Finland

All day long

[ashen sorrel]

The earth isn’t round it’s volociraptor shaped

[woeful dust]

Australia is in reality just mars

What no

[hoary yoke]

yuli what kinda graphics card u got

[shrewd barn]

2070s

[woeful dust]

Earth id mario shaped!

[hoary yoke]

kk

[ashen sorrel]

I love my 2070 super

[woeful dust]

Ey me too!

[ashen sorrel]

It’s a nice card

[woeful dust]

I paid 400€ for mine

[shrewd barn]

best card for the price

[ashen sorrel]

I wish I had gotten the white version of it that gigabyte sells

[shrewd barn]

i got mine free from MSI

[woeful dust]

Somehow lmao

[hoary yoke]

im trying to vibe with a 1060 😐

[woeful dust]

Bruh nice flex

[hoary yoke]

no chance

[ashen sorrel]

The 5700XT would like to talk to you @shrewd barn jk I love the 2070 super

[woeful dust]

The 2070s costs likr 600€ normally

And i got it for 400€ no discounts

[shrewd barn]

lol i dont talk to bad drivers and no raytracing, but other than that the 5700xt is a nice card

[ashen sorrel]

Lmaooo

[woeful dust]

Just the brand selling it soo cheaply that they withdrew the sales the next week

[ashen sorrel]

They fixed the driver issue

[shrewd barn]

they did?

[woeful dust]

And ajusted the prices

[shrewd barn]

i just did an update today and still get issues

[woeful dust]

The drivers should be fixed

[ashen sorrel]

Ya I think it was back in November or December they rolled out an update that fixed like 85% of issues

[shrewd barn]

might be my build then

[ashen sorrel]

Maybe who knows

We got raytracing who cares

Talk to me when you drop 40fps to get like 2% graphics improvement in MW

[hoary yoke]

tbh my setup has come a loooong way

this is what it used to look like

[ashen sorrel]

Nice smol build

[iron kayak]

i like the headset

[hoary yoke]

yeah idk if you heard of it

its from a brand called steelseries

their kinda small idk

[worn canopy]

@hoary yoke is that a comfy foot rest? i'm jelly, i need one

[iron kayak]

they probably just started out

[hoary yoke]

the foot rest is alright i dont really use it that much

[ashen sorrel]

@hoary yoke never heard of them they probably suck jk

[hoary yoke]

i normally destroy my back and rest my feet on my chair/desk

[iron kayak]

i feel like koob hasn't shown his setup since he is using unreleased products

[ashen sorrel]

I’ll post an updated battle station when I upgrade my pc in September

Either getting a 3900x or one of the 4th gens if they look really promising

[pseudo scaffold]

I’m on a budget but this fits all my needs

[marsh bobcat]

Does this make the cut?

FT my broken mouse that I replaced with the Rival 600

[ashen sorrel]

@marsh bobcat omg that is like my dream setup the double custom loop. The shelves wirh so much lighting

I’m super jealous

[marsh bobcat]

It's taken me about a year to get this

[novel rivet]

BRUH

Come on

[marsh bobcat]

there is gonna be a custom ARG backplate with my name on it to match my wallpapers, but it's still out for delivery

[novel rivet]

Lmao

I am big jelly

[ashen sorrel]

Damn well it’s gorgeous. I hope to make something like that

[marsh bobcat]

thank you

I'm pretty proud of it

[ashen sorrel]

You should be

[marsh bobcat]

Now i just need the new headset I want, and I'll be set

[ashen sorrel]

There’s a chance I might be turning my basement spare room into a make shift stream room so I’d have more space for shelves and background stuff

[marsh bobcat]

my fiance and I just bought our first house, and we made sure it had enough rooms for him to have his setup and me to have mine in a private room cause I get loud on stream

[ashen sorrel]

Nice

I still live at home cuz I’m 16 but i think I convinced my parents some what

Hardest part will be getting the Ethernet cable from the top floor to the basement

[marsh bobcat]

yeah, i have a 30 FT ethernet cable

well I have 2. One for my PC and one for the PS4

[ashen sorrel]

I’m gonna need at least a 100fter

Maybe even a splitter at some point cuz I’m gonna need to try and hide the cable on a route to the basement

[zealous pulsar]

That setup is POG

[marsh bobcat]

:3

[ashen sorrel]

Definitely pog

I won’t copy it exactly but I will say if I get the chance my setup will probably share some inspiration from it

[marsh bobcat]

Man

Copy it and tag me

I love being peoples inspiration 🤗

[hexed oar]

those are the flexes I won't be able to get anytime sooner lmao

[hexed oar]

that's cool lmao

[hoary yoke]

its the super airflow gaming phone

[warm fractal]

lmfaoo, the ingenuity of the compactness of them amaze me

[hoary yoke]

cool pc

[warm fractal]

although them using the excuse for "lack of space" to explain why they removed the headphone jack is complete and utter bs

[hexed oar]

yesh exactly I will get one for me now I just have to save that sticky white material

[hoary yoke]

there is a headphone jack

[hexed oar]

wait is there a headphone jack in an iphone

it means end Is really near

[hoary yoke]

iphone 6s

[warm fractal]

yeah i meant the later gens

good ol 6s

[hoary yoke]

this is the thing that destroyed my desk

evil device

there is a FAT dent in it now

[hexed oar]

that's why I don't use those kinda stuffs

[hoary yoke]

yh

[warm fractal]

yeah that's the problem with mounts

still looking for a reliable triple monitor mount myself, need a strong one to support three 27"

[hoary yoke]

dont buy triple monitor mount

get a 2 and a 1 monitor mount

[rose oriole]

get whatever @marsh bobcat has lmao that mount is working overtime

[hexed oar]

I'm using my old Samsung smart tv 32 inches for my games

[hoary yoke]

tbh you get what you pay for that mount was £30

[warm fractal]

you aren't wrong

[hoary yoke]

and i have to pay to return it 😐

[grand nimbus]

i have a cheap onn duel monitor mount and it works great lol

[hexed oar]

lmao fair dealings

[hoary yoke]

yeah your desk is probably more solid tho

[warm fractal]

a 2 and a 1 mount just damages the aesthetics

[grand nimbus]

its wood lol

[hoary yoke]

i have an ikea linnmon

its like honeycomb cardboard

[warm fractal]

if you ever have a thin desk and need a mount, just put two pieces of thick-ish wood between the clamps

[hoary yoke]

not good with heavy clamps

[hexed oar]

same I have wood but there's a glass on it for me

[hoary yoke]

i have two pices of wood

still damaged it

[warm fractal]

hm curious

[hoary yoke]

the wood made it slip as well

[warm fractal]

honeycomb cardboard is supposed to be strong, although maybe not 15kg

[hoary yoke]

one monitor came crashing down one time

[marsh bobcat]

@rose oriole I can post a link when im home. Its a really good 3 monitor mount that has cable management

[warm fractal]

christ that's awful

is it a triple monitor setup? @marsh bobcat maybe the picture deceives me but it looks like an ultrawide too

[hoary yoke]

yeah basically one of my monitors doesnt natively support vesa

and i had to buy some bracket

[warm fractal]

wtf

[hoary yoke]

and that failed

[marsh bobcat]

Just 3 27" monitors

[warm fractal]

that's weird, vesa is for the most part universal

[hoary yoke]

yeah its a dell

£100

nothing special

[warm fractal]

ah fair enough

[hexed oar]

why UK is expensive than other countries lol

[hoary yoke]

its not

[marsh bobcat]

My monitors are frameleas @warm fractal so thats why it looks that way

[hexed oar]

my Cousin lives in Ireland

[marsh bobcat]

Frameleaa*

[hexed oar]

so he says that the things there are expensive than other countries

[marsh bobcat]

Frameless ffa

I cant type.

[warm fractal]

ah shit fair enough, what monitors?

[marsh bobcat]

Thwyre AOC

Theyre* ffs

Also that mount has a wide mount on the desk and a cover. No evil dent

[hoary yoke]

yeah rip my desk

[warm fractal]

ah i've heard good things about aoc monitors, will look into that mount some more too

[hoary yoke]

now i have a nice built-in cup

[marsh bobcat]

@warm fractal

[hoary yoke]

thats my monitor

[marsh bobcat]

Theyre really good

[hoary yoke]

except i have 24”

not 27

[hexed oar]

do you guys really like dual monitor setups or more

[warm fractal]

ahh looks nice

[hoary yoke]

nah atleast 10 monitor setups

[marsh bobcat]

@hexed oar I like my 3 but I stream for a living and need it

[warm fractal]

i think triple monitor is the way to go but it's expensive

[hexed oar]

lol

[hoary yoke]

all of my monitors are different

[hexed oar]

I love one monitor setups but if you're streaming take one more for that but ofc everyone has opinions

[hoary yoke]

yeah

i like stream labs obs on one, the game on the main and then music etc on the other

[hexed oar]

I will start streaming soon

[hoary yoke]

3 is overkill tbh

[marsh bobcat]

Eh

[warm fractal]

i usually have spotify/discord/twitter on one, main is whatever i'm doing then the third is for documentation that i refer to a lot

[hexed oar]

stream labs is too good tho

[warm fractal]

but i was a comp sci student so i utilised the triple monitor thing a lot

[hoary yoke]

stream labs obs is good

[marsh bobcat]

I see everything I need. I can monitor my stream, see discord, twitter, my xhat, whether I'm dropping frames or not etx

I thought 3 was a lot but I quickly found reason for it

[hoary yoke]

lmao “not dropping frames”

whats that

never heard of that

[marsh bobcat]

Also having a dedicated monitor yoy don't mind having a display capture on to show videos etc without showing stuff yoy don't want seen is nice

[hexed oar]

I'm like a lot into IT things and stuff so I usually get into mobo and see what's this and that and my dad beaten my cuz I ripped his pc once by doing it

[hoary yoke]

oh damn

[marsh bobcat]

@hoary yoke I gonestly I can't tell if you're joking or not

Honestly*

[hoary yoke]

nah im always dropping frames

its bad

[warm fractal]

i just love dragging apps across all three

[hexed oar]

lmao its fun for sure

[hoary yoke]

i dont because it seams like everytime the heights are not set up correctly

[hexed oar]

have a cheap monitor for obs and have a better one for gaming so I guess it's fine for me tho but tastes differs

[warm fractal]

yeah some apps aren't optimised for it

portrait monitors are also underrated imo

[hoary yoke]

no

i tried that

nothing can fit

i guess its good for discord

[warm fractal]

lmfao thats fair enough

[hoary yoke]

thats it

[warm fractal]

yeah my portrait monitor is discord/twitter/spotify

[hexed oar]

sounds like hardcore gamer

[hoary yoke]

yuli has a monitor for each pixel

his setup is mad

[hexed oar]

it's good rhen

then

[warm fractal]

yeah some streamers have insane numbers of monitors

[hoary yoke]

idk if i will keep my third monitor

its very old

like older than me

[warm fractal]

i mean if it's useful and it works

[hoary yoke]

the colours tho

and its glossy

not anti glare

[hexed oar]

oof

[hoary yoke]

its not even 1060

1080

its like 1650

[hexed oar]

seems like it's from 1980's

[warm fractal]

yikes

[hoary yoke]

i will take a phot

[hexed oar]

k

[hexed oar]

not bad

[hoary yoke]

what

how

[hexed oar]

it looks fine

[warm fractal]

chunky

doesn't look too bad if you just shove a window on it

[hoary yoke]

its 50hz

not even 1080p

[hexed oar]

just take it for other tasks

[hoary yoke]

but colour reproduction is horrible

its hard to look at

[warm fractal]

would b if it's rather old

[hexed oar]

mhm

[hoary yoke]

yeah well i kinda payed for a dvi to hdmi cable now

so i have to use it

[hexed oar]

Lol

[warm fractal]

dvi damn

[hoary yoke]

ima go to bed now

bye

[warm fractal]

thats some old shit

gn

[hexed oar]

Gn bye

[broken hollow]

ZR1#8922 has been warned

That is 100% not his.

[iron trench]

I'm gonna say 300%

[craggy iron]

haterz gonna hate

[iron trench]

At least it's a blower

[rancid ice]

What in the blue hell is that

[next thicket]

gotta love the off brands

[dark ether]

there should be prizes

[rancid ice]

People can easily steal the pictures from other sites.

And you know people would do that if "prizes" were up for grabs.

[crimson apex]

@iron trench
Oh yeah?

[lethal temple]

s340 gang

[crimson apex]

Ya I gotta make a PC list at some point LOL

[iron trench]

What monitors you got?

[covert token]

A good madlad move would to be to post ur setup without any steelseries stuff

[lethal temple]

Is it really a setup if it doesn’t have any steelseries items

[iron trench]

The only non ss thing I have is a mousepad atm rip

[ashen badger]

Why?

[crimson apex]

👀 Why? SS is great 🤷🏻‍♂️

[dark ether]

[kind gorge]

Rgb chair

Wtf

Mbn

And how much cuz I’m gonna buy it rn

[keen torrent]

[wide plaza]

@dark ether wait are we talking about monitors? 😳

[burnt crystal]

V nice

[hoary yoke]

this is pc

[flat dew]

nice !

[versed panther]

awesome looking setups

[iron trench]

The fact that all 3 of those monitors are slightly different but similar is triggering me inside

[grand holly]

Hi

[bright spruce]

All I need in my setup is a new desk and a new monitor

[versed panther]

do you sit on the floor?

because floor gang 😎

[sweet lynx]

We has a pewds fan over here, floor gang 🤣 ^^

@hoary yoke how much estimated did that set up cost?

[hoary yoke]

hmmm

maybe £1300 ish

maybe more idk

[sweet lynx]

Wow not bad tbh

[hoary yoke]

i plan to upgrade my pc in the future

[sweet lynx]

I don't have a pc but it's one of my wishes

[hoary yoke]

yeah making the switch from console to pc was night and day

even tho i had some old hp laptop at the time its great having a pc

[sweet lynx]

Gonna be hard to get a gaming set up in my room as I've got a small room 😭

[hoary yoke]

if you have room for one monitor thats all you need

even if you dont even have a desk

and just mount monitor to the wall

you could make it work

[sweet lynx]

Yeah possibly

I'm thinking PS5 or PC?

I can't decide

[hoary yoke]

pc

100%

[hexed oar]

Pc for sure but pc depends on budget tbh

[dark ether]

bruhhhhh

[midnight slate]

damn thats nice

[dark ether]

I got a decent gud setup for gaming but frrrr

thats nice

the moment i turn 18 im maxing out every pc component idc

[midnight slate]

lol

[ashen sorrel]

Eeeewww we got so many floor gang mans here.

Jk whatever works works

[midnight slate]
