like i put it back then the lid down
it seems opened
otherwise we'd need to find a new one (theyre dirt cheap for a few pieces but i dont know how many pins that connector has)
like this
yeah
what next
try doing it to the other connector again
we're just making sure everything is secured
also this is like this idk if thats supposed to be normal
thats normal
ive worked with electronics before (actually lots of times already lol)
wheres the flap for the other one
a flex connector is supposed to flex like that
theres none?
im busy right now making a schematic for an upcoming project, so excuse me for a minute
i eated ur keyboard sowwyyy
?
nvm
connectors like that exist
sure
thats just a seperate pcb to provide power and for data
it doesnt work
doesnt work?
yeah it doesnt
i tried switching it with other switches and it still wouldnt press
is there a way i cN fix that or no
usually if its just a broken solder joint you can resolder it easily
tortilla saiso wont help
we are already out of that level
we are in the internals already
what is a solder where is the solder
you dont know what solder is??
no i know nothing about keyboard
and theres no razer stores or any keyboard repair stores here
solder, flex connectors, PCBs are all related to electronics
can you circle where the solder is
i recommend learning about it before fixing something like this
you see those tiny blobs of metal?
NOT
the copper ones
goes through the conductive pads of metal on the pcb
thats an SMD resistor methinks (can tell because of the "R")
oh
ill take a picture of one of my ESP32 dev boards so i can show you what im talking about
oh yeah i recommend you have a soldering iron, helping hands (optional but makes the process easier on smaller things), rosin-core soldering lead, solder wick, and a fume extractor (if you dont wanna end up in the hospital breathing all the smoke that comes from the lead)
just incase
if we have to actually resolder some components on
oh
so which are the solders and how do i tell if theyre broken
none of the stores in my place do keyboard repair
although its slash i literally play roblox i cant talk without slash
anyway which are the solders
you grab a component, align them up with the solder pads (usually copper or any sort of well-conducting metal), melt a bit of soldering lead onto the pins (connects the component's metal pins with the solder pads), and the PCB and component should be connected
ill see if i can snag a few example what im talking about
also you should just watch a video on how soldering works before we actually start fixing this on a higher level
also i slammed on this keyboard to pure rage and slash hasnt worked since
sooo idk if thaf changes anything
thats changes alot, thanks
you either broke the PCB or broke the solder joint
Just contact Razer Support.
the pcb is the one with all the switches right

do i get to call with them
the board that connects the electronics together
usually made out of fiberglass
i searched yp what solders look like and theres none of that in the keyboard
there is
im not wrong
thats what solder looks like
usually people use solder paste and a heat plate to automatically solder them on if they dont wanna do soldering by hand
which also leads into better and smaller solder connections
@lament sequoia @slate folio If you guys have already created a thread on #1019758370653220915 , ping me on it, and I will disable SAiSO, so you can help.
i cant "circle" the solder joints
theyre already small
and they usually look like a tiny slope connecting the component and the pad
@acoustic trout lets chat here
just keeps the other channel clean
well looks like i'll be here as well then
with the mouse not working, if you have kb access make sure usb legacy mode is enabled, or try another mouse
i have no experience / no clue what im doing but sure
Yeah legacy was enabled
also some of there firmwares have the ability to turn off usb ports so make sure they are all enabled
Yep checked that too
how about another mouse/
Yeah no chance not even the dongle works
I'm still sat on the boot menu it shoved me into
you should still be able to use the firmwares without a mouse just use the arrow keys and spacebar etc
ya
do you want to install windows to this device
the blinking can be because windows does not always install bootloaders into the primary drive, so if it has no idea how to access the windows loader it will just sit there
yep
ya
Eventually
you may be able to repair the bootloader that way
Just give it a couple of years
using the command prompt and bootrec / commands
Yippee new error
;-;/
at least its progress
Heya
Hallo
hai
Fuck
without new ram to test..
why not just remove that ram in that slot
that is not good
But I wanna see where this is going
Nvm back to gray
qwq
You could possobly try giving gpt a transcript of what happened before what the error is and what you have tried, provide your screenshots and it could actually tell you whats wrong
👀
bweheh i mean if it can write code for me then it might be able to help
The thing is I have no idea what I was doing before
I'll try when I'm on my laptop
Alright I removed that ram stick
Now nothings happening
Wait
I smacked it and it powered on
it used ball bearings or something so i was told just smack it
and then my teacher was like "HARDER"
and boom it worked
works with my flight stick too, give it a good smack to dislodge any dirt
yeahhhhhhhhhhh uhhhhh
Lovely
i think you might have a problem with the motherboard or something idk whatsoever
im just spewing nonsence
but yeahhhhh something isn't right
"RAM error - no RAM"
QwwQ
please dont tell me its about to explode
OH I THOUGHT IT WAS LIKE A PHYSICAL SOUND
IT IS
That may be the slot is defective and or somthing in the slot
IT SOUNDS LIKE A VAN ENGINE
OKAY TURN THAT OFF RIGHT NOW
NO ITS DOING SOMETHING
could be a dead fan or an old HDD
It's coming from the drive
if its an old HDD dirve
yeah the drive might also be in trouble
I smashed the keyboard and it started doing that
old HDD + clicking sound = dyhing
might unfortunately be time for a new one
im old as dirt kind of
This is the only copy I have of all of my sisters data
so i worked with all this old stuff back when it was new stuff
if you have an external drive enclosure you could try and pull the data off it
before it totally dies
^
Yeah that's what I'm gonna do
would second this, i had some massive problems and ended up losing everything on my laptop
so i am now someone to endorse getting your data saved before you try anything
Alright I'm gonna try the socket transplant
Yeah I've already unplugged the drive
going in with the surgical manouvers
If you dont have an external drive enclosure but have another desktop , in a pinch you can get a long cable and plug it into your other desktop but power on the pc thats not working right just to power the drive and copy it off that way lol
it sounds buster but it works
that does sound ridiculous but honestly it sounds like it'd work
all the drive needs is power it actually doesnt care where it gets it from
xD
i have done similar
by this point i use my xbox as a usb charging port, i connected the headset charger to it and using my xbox as a way to charge things xd
Razer doesnt sell scew drivers
XD
NEW PRODUCT IDEAS!!!!!!!!
razer screwdriver and repair sets
with chroma rgb
all my power outlets in our home have usb ports as well so
usb and a
oooooo damn sounds useful as hell
and the usb c are rated for 100w fast charge
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
its so helpful for gaming
that is insanely convenient
when ya can just use long usb c cables for playstation and xbox remotes
or your phone
or your laptop
Found one
Ah yes
The cpu screws are rusty
Because why wouldn't they be
Ahahahaha
i would prob scrub the motherboard if you are finding rust on stuff
i mean clean when i say scrub
isopropyl alcohol works wonders.
C R U S T Y
It did absolutely nothing 🔥🔥
so its like that hard
you got an thermal paste spatula?
I got a debit card
razer blade works better
I am not using my laptop
You mean razor blade?
Yeah I can't get any of those
flat head screw driver
whats wrong with it
did you take the picture upside down
so looking at the procesosr you should be able to read the text normally
ok its right
you took the image upside down
@acoustic trout did you get it working?
nah,went to bed will try again tommorow
Nice
More expensive buy its dell branded
And I know what dell compatibility is like
ngl id just go with the dell branded
to be safe
also get a dam jumper as well lol
'so you can reset the password
Dokiboard
Wait so would I like need to leave it on permentantly
Also what's even the point of it 😭
it allows you to clear the uefi bios
and clear the password thats on the uefi bios
ya know that warning you get when it boots
it would remove it
Oh thank god
What about the raid popup? Do I just ignore it
Example your sisters drive that is dying
once you get the data off of it
Oh yeah I got it on a flash drive last night
there is ablack jumper on the back of the drive in a row of pins
pull that off
you can use that
Alright
Lemme wait for my dad to go to work so I don't get in his way getting out of bed lol
I've never seen that
on the back of old hdds it goes master slave cable select then raid mode
Yeah I'll check them
Litteraly none of my drives have one 😭
I FOUND ONE
I just yanked it off my server
hope from a drive that umm wasnt important lol
ok
tbh once you clear the password
you could just put it back on your server lol
the error should bugger off
Alright where do I pt
Aw man
it typically has 2 or 3 pins
That's where my sound card is 😭
if 3 pins one will be run mode
the other clear mode
without the manual i have no idea so yo will have to test
pprob the service mode
This things covered in jumpers
Qait so do I do the service mode one
The service mode jumper on a Dell motherboard is typically used for maintenance or troubleshooting purposes. When the jumper is set, it can trigger a diagnostic mode or reset certain BIOS settings.
ya know like the password
once its on just turn the pc on
and reset all that shit
configure it how you want and need it
then remove the jumper and that way you know changes cant be made that could make it not work
oncce you get it running right
you need to clear the pasword lol
you can now or should be able to clear it
Yeah but that throws me into the boot menu 😭
thats fine
Am I going to the bios?
err bios menu is fine
now remove the password
from the bios menu
since now you can
yes
What would it be under?
second one
under intel txt
if there is a password set there shold be an option to delete it
How do I get into it without a mouse?
spacebar or enter
Oh there's no password entered
ok good
also c check admin setup lockout
make sure that is clear as well
Thats good its not set
Yeah it's not enabled
TBH
i would 100% reset all bios settings to default
unless you already customized it yourself
Alright I did that
show the service tag in a public discord lol
Oh is it like a key or something? 😭
its ok
cause most dell users dont get into the bios
Yeah fair lol
anyways its reset to defult so
at least if there was any weird settings
they are gone
Misinput
I don't even know who I just called
Oh my bad sorry
Yeah immediately got that
thats because you still need to install windows lol
Yeah that drive has Windows installed
wait you re installed it
That doesnt work how you hope it does
because windows does not always write the boot loader into the drive its atualy being installed on
and now on newer windows its system specific most the timess
The only way it works decently is if you Image windows
and then clone it to another drive
cause the clone software will actually fix the bootloader
It's doing something
I tried booting from the windows thumb drive
The screen is blank but the monitor hasn't disconnected yet
Not yet
Just tryna wake it up from its coma
Just ordered thr new memory
@glad finch
I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I DID
just update drivers
how
i cant get into windows
@glad finch I'm gonna kill someone
There was a hidden jumper
Under the fan shroud
It's booting off the drive into windows fine noe
Now
Alright
Guys is the razer blackshark v2 hyperspeed mic detachable?
the answer is no
Dang
does someone know if the razer barracuda x 2022 dongle can be insert into an external powered hub to update his firmware?
You need to keep it wired.
Or else it won't work.
wym
You need to connect it with an usb cable, no dongles.
it wont work anyways
You don't have any usb port? You are going to need one.
i have one to charge it but it doesn't work like that
it's not "connected" to the pc it's just a charger
the only thing i have is a jack to connect them with a wire
but it dowsn't work anyways
i was asking if a thing like this would solve this
You are going to use another computer.
It says "Do not use a non-powered USB hub".
i dont have another computer
I don't think so, you can try but it can't work and corrupt the headset.
It doesn't work or something?
I'd say don't update them, keep them with the fabric drivers.
Oh yeah that's probably a driver's issue.
Hmm well, if you can find another computer with an USB port you can do it.
Or try to contact Razer Support and tell them your issue.
they literally told me to replace the headphones
but i did it and the problem persist
and finding another pc is not easy as you can imagine
What does the wireless dongle do for the hyperspeed headset?
guys plz help how can i set barracuda pro every time i turn on the headphone change the volume of all
ty
is the battery percentage on synapse for razer mice in accurate percentages?
it goes through every number
It's supposed to be quite accurate, if it doesn't, drain your device, then charge it again, this will calibrate the battery.
ahh, thanks
i calibrate the batteries
im secretly inside of razer mice
i just broke my razer viper ultimate and it had two side buttons on each side and now i want to upgrade to a new mouse but cant find any with side buttons on both sides that are lightweight wireless and have a good sensor lmk if u have any ideas.
So 4 side buttons total? With 2 on each side? I don’t think there’s a current mouse with that
Viper v3 pro checks your other boxes though. Lightweight, wireless, even supports and comes with 8khz polling dongle out of the box
im just really not trying to have to change my keybinds in my competitve games
no recent razer mouse has side buttons on both sides iirc
i wish for the viper v3 pro ultimate mini signature edition bruh ! 😭
Is this making a difference instead of having the dongle directly in my usb port
yes, the closer the dongle to the mouse, the better the signal is
@acoustic trout 2x 2680 would be 10 /20 so you would get 20/40 vs just 12/24
the 2697 just has 5 mb more cache
True but I'd also need to buy a 2nd cooler
but they are both ivy bridge
I'm not exactly hosting a data centre so I'm happy
whats the chances you will ever get another Intel® Xeon® Processor E5-2697 v2
vs gertting 2 processors now and just getting a second cooler later
Most likely
Intel® product specifications, features and compatibility quick reference guide and code name decoder. Compare products including processors, desktop boards, server products and networking products.
But I already got my 2680s on hwnd
i just gave you the side by side view
you can get a tube off amazon for like 2 bucks
Nope its a proprietary cooler for the 2nd socket
id only take the newer version if i could get a workikng second
Slightly different shape
I only have 1 cpu cooler rn because the rig only came with one chip installed
im sure ebay has the second cooler
There ya be
Thats cool
Should I sell my razer huntsman mini for 56 USD, I bought for 124 USD
Any workstation laptops recommended? I mean some sporting with RTX 5000 Ada workstation laptop, prefer 4K60 OLED HDR screen, 16 inch. I do not care perf loss of gaming compared to gaming laptops, but focusing on reliability and stability of performance and endurance on CAD and graphical works.
Can anyone recomend me a good gaming laptop? i have no clue what all the numbers mean 😂
anyone know where I can buy the plastic clips for the old razer blackshark v2 pro ear cups?
Whats your budget
My Razer Barracuda's this pieces are broken and im holding my headset with electric tape is there a place i can buy these? I live in Turkey so we dont have any razer store or something similar. I bought this for like a year or two ago.
like 2.5k
What currency
You'll need to check their help page, you can buy replacements but you need to know the piece's name.
i checked the parts page but there are only pads n stuff like that
Maybe contacting Customer Service, they'll know the exact piece.
idk how though
im so lost 😭

Hmm, where you bough them? They ask it in case you need to give them the product.
Just jokin sorry. 😭 😭
its fineee dw dw xd
i bought it from a big tech market here
so reseller or distributor?
Describe the issue, I think later they can enable that.
usd
Are you also planning on using it outside of the home. Like at school or work?
no laptops are shit for work
Depends on what are you doing for work
If you are doing something based on excel it's pretty convenient to use laptop rather than a huge chunky case
nah its mainly gonna be for gaming, but maybe school
If you’re going to be carrying it around alot i would recomment asus’s zepherus g14-g16 lineup. 1440p 240 hz oled display. It remains super light while still having good power.
I would not recommend anything above 4070 for laptops though
is it good for gaming?
Yep
And super light
I would recomment bestbuy. They tend to have open box sales that are fantastic
hey so my headset broke a lil while ago, I've had my eyes on the "RAZER KRAKEN V3 PRO" but its a bit too expensive rn, does anyone have a cheap temporary headset in mind till i can get the kraken?
get the blackshark V2 X is what I would recommend
blackshark v2 x as a temp? gotchya lookin now
might become your main
it is really good for 50 usd
had mine for 3 years now and I am very satisfied
and has a good mic for the price
eh i like what i've seen with the kraken
plus dad said he would get it for me till i can get the kraken on the condition he gets it so
hows it goin folk
For me the skin got ruined after 3 year
** Guys, does anybody know how to turn off the EQ for a game (or turn it off generally)?**
you can ask in #1019758370653220915
blackshark v2 x is great but i also love the hyperx cloud 3 if you wanna spend 20 more dollars
and the cloud 3 has software
the v2 x usb version is better than the 3.5mm one tho
noise cancelling mic is included in the v2 x usb
yeah i have that one
love it
i might snag the kraken v4
idk though
theyre not as big as the v3 pro
and no haptics :(
kraken any good?
heavy but comfy aswell
i was gonna get a kraken but i opted for the blackshark
i accidentaly deleted my blackshark v2 from my windows bluetooth devices and now i cant find out how to reconnect all i find is to press some eq- button which i dont have and i cant go into cconnect mode with my headset
can some1 help
crazy
? whats crazy
the information that theres a help channel but i dont wanna make a whole thread that sits there for days i just need a fix godamn
you're better off contacting razer support or making a post in help
we cant help you here
also, youre likely to get a response within the same hour
people are pretty helpful and willing here
meh
saiso can help you
dont bother buying that headset got too many problems
got mine refunded
does anyone know how good Razer Barrcuda X is?
elaborate?
battery did not last long especially with haptics on
the headset itself disconnected randomly
i did update it too
i had a problem on synapse with it not showing up and etc
its a great headset with the quality but has many problems
eh, nothing thats really turning me away from it
my earbuds disconnect from my phone quite often so i've grown used to that
and as far as i know synaps is mostly just led's and remapping which isnt too important to me
and battery i'm fine with
although thanks for the warning
how can I help?
I got razed gold card and I mistakenly scratch off two digits of the pin
its just buggy
Please help me
You'll need to contact Razer Support for anything Razer Gold/Silver related
Please where can I contact razer support ?
wich headsett do you use?
I use their Moray IEMs
Their Kraken or BlackShark lines are always good
I cannot decide wether i should a different headsett or try to get the kraken v3 pro once more
I was tpld the corsair h80 are good
But dont know
Wich one to choose
I'd say check reviews and compare.
I'm using WF-C500.
For pc?
Yeah, I know it sounds strange, but I'm not too competitive, I don't like headsets because my neck hurts.
I use those for casual use.
Sometimes it doesn’t reconnect to synapse after a power cycle
That’s about it
Works great otherwise
Battery life? How long does it last
Like 10 hours with lighting up all the way for me
I have seen post about people having defect products
Idk about haptics
Ever tried without rgb?
Nope but i think it’s rated about 20 hours for no RGB or haptics
Charges pretty fast for me
Also apparently it’s about 40+ hours for no rgb or haptics
Just had to check
Yea thats false
The battery drainsge is fast
Took 3 hours for fully charge and did not get the fully charged green light
Good enough to not buy a separate dac. 
i eat digital to analog converters
You know thats not true right?
You said it lasted up to 10 hours with rgb on
Normally it should be with rgb and haptics at the same time
As it says on the page
It depends on the brightness of the peripheral, also the conditions and configurations, polling rate etc.
With a normal use, the battery will last 44 hours with haptics and lightning off, up to 11 hours with haptics and lightning on.
I have seen many people talking about the same problem tho
Well the product is top quality if it just didnt had that battery problem
Maybe i was just unlucky and the other ones were just normal
hi uhh i just need help with my viper mini, i opened my mouse cuz my left and right buttons keep rattling and its kinda loose but now i tried putting it back but for some reason my left and right buttons dont click. the switches still work but its not clicking when i put it back
Hi guys , my friend got a pc and when he connects his Blackshark v2 x with the adapter for the aux port nothing appear . Nun even a sound. We tried EVERYTHING..bios drivers..unsintall drivers , realtek sound control doesnt exist anymore..and razer doesnt detect it either.
Is there drivers for that ?
Wym adapter for aux port?
if i registered my razer headphones already and got the code for the 7.1 will i still be able to refund it i bought it from another gaming store that isnt razer itself
Has anyone had any similar problems with orochi v2? My right click works for the first 10 secs after opening my PC and then it completely stops working. It also work on other pcs.
Who should I message for a problem i have buying a laptop in spain.
I need their invoice to have my company tax code in it and the online shop panel doesn’t have one.
I bought a razer deathadder v3 hyperspeed, but I can only set it to max 1000hz on razer synapse, do I need a special dongle to play 8000hz?
Yes.
what a scam bru
It is not lol, they say in the page it comes with a 1k Hz polling rate dongle.
This is not Razer Support, you have to contact Razer Support, or the page you bought it.
Also, using 8k Hz polling rate will lag your PC.
Depends on the game and the computers processor

what is the use of the 1k dongle? u can set the mouse to 1k without it
The maximum Hz polling rate of the 1k dongle is 1000 Hz polling rate.
You can configure it on Synapse.
but the use of a dongle is to be able to set a mouse like mine to a certain Hz, like the dongle I would need to buy to get 8000hz, I can set my mouse to 1000hz without the dongle, so what's it's use\
The dongle you actually have allows you to put it on 1000 Hz.
Without the dongle I'm not sure which Hz you will reach.
Without the dongle you can’t connect the mouse lol
I'm not using the dongle rn and I got 1000hz
I litterally can
How are you connecting it?
The hyperspeed dongle is the one that comes with the mouse
1kHz polling
If you want higher the hyperpolling dongle is on their website
hello guys
i wanted some information about some razer stuff i bought and i want to buy in the future
is this the right place to ask?
Maybe
What kind of information
I understand
i wanted to know if i can buy the razer green pbt keycaps only and not with the coiled wire and what would be the price of it?
but
what does it give me, my mouse got 1k hz without it! what's the difference with it pluged in
30 USD
And yea it’s on Amazon
can i use those keycaps on my razer huntsman mini?
I think there’s some sort of barrier here because you cannot connect the mouse without it lol
Do you mean the usb adapter dongle
ye
i bought razer card and i cant even use it
yup this
So painful
They have no actual benefits
Yea probs
ok
You’re gonna need to contact support for that unfortunately https://support.razer.com/
They can help
how much the 8k hz thingy cost btw?
😡
are you sure they can help me cause I over scratched the card pin
Yea, at least they’ll be more help than we can be
ok let me try then thanks
Good luck
Are you not sure about it?
I’m pretty sure it can fit any optical or mechanical board from them
I have red optical switches
Should be fine but Amazon has great return policies if not
@vague crag couldnt find a better alternative for a headsett should try again for the kraken v3 pro?
And one question how long do you charge yours approximately?
I just plug it in whenever I go to bed
Could wait and see if they drop the v4 pro
o
Wha
Sorry, I was cleaning my keyboard, I spilled some tea on the key 9-0 and I pressed "o" by accident lol.
O lol
Oof
yea i could
Just a speculative warning though
but the thing is we dont know when and i need to wait for it to come to my country too
Turkey
i need to wait for it to come here
they dont ship it
i believe
anyways
it going to take ages tbh
What's this one for
That's great for me then
By chance is that from the Razer Gold site?
Don't really remember what Gold does but I do know it's a reward system right
Shipping countries
It’s like a gift card for razer stuff
What kind of info are you needing? They have a tech specs page
on every product
Well
or when my country is going get the products maybe etc
they could talk about the specs tho
they will most likely announce it
We shall see
Yeah, basically rumor still and in progress for building of the V4
Ain't no way it actually released
Wdym
I thought it was a speculation if it was releasing
blackshark V3 when?
lol you’re good
Well 1 cable that split into 2 , for pc
Yk..the mic and headset port
His headset seems to work for console but he got an extra adapter for pc..but it doesnt work..we tried..every..fucking..drivers..doesn't work..unsintalling audio drivers..it just makes an helicopter sound on discord and for him
Can we order USB cables from Razer. I just got a new desk and want to upgrade all my USB cables to Razer ones I have the ones that came with all my Razer gear but I don't want to use them lol.
You can find some on Amazon but they don’t have official ones except for the coiled keyboard ones or the ones under the spare parts section
Thank you.
Have a question..... does razer have shops around south africa? Im not even sure about it
has the razer black shark v2 x cable problem fixed?
nerp
What was the problem
its extension cable was very loose and it frequently came off just by pulling it slightly
I doubt they made a revision to address that issue. I’ve never even heard of that tbh though
So how will i get items if i order?
it was a very common issue when it got released
i want to buy it cuz its fits my budget
They ship all/most orders internationally from Hong Kong anyway
Gotcha..... wonder how long i will be waiting then....dont have even 1 razer thing...
It doesn’t take long. Legit a few days to a week
granted I’m in the US so it might be logistically easier to ship at that rate
From there to south africa?
It should say the estimated arrival date when you’re choosing shipping option
Im on it now, but not sure where to enter my adress
You need to add to cart
And go through the process like you’re buying it
Along the way it’ll ask for shipping info
Might not ship to that country then actually
eyo everyone! rebuilding after a fire that insurance isn't covering (yay me) looking for recommendations on my setup, total price from ground up under 5k and.....go
#1019758370653220915 use model name and info
As a keyboard I'm using Gamepower Starscream, it's pretty good if you like keyboards with numpads etc. And it's cheap!
If you are saying recommendations like that
