@blissful egret You want a little bit of lateral movement though, because if you didn't there would be no leeway when you click
#razer-discussion
visual ingot
My Basilisk V2 has some, and my Logitech g502 Proteus also
Like, naturally when I right click I sort of apply down-right pressure to the click. Not enough to be damaging but without a little movement could stress the actuator.

@visual ingot Thanks - but I dont think my naga 2014 had that 😮
visual ingot
@blissful egret It could be that they noticed stress on older mice due to being so rigid, and made a design change.
Older doesn't necessarily mean it's better. 🙂
But, if it bothers you, you might want to return it. You want to be 100% satisfied when spending your money!

basilisk ultimate comes with a charging dock. @sacred beacon
errant sandal
but you said it didn't
so which is it
does it or not?
because im buying the ultimate one
sacred beacon
where didi I say that
sacred beacon
if your talking about the mouse pad bundle
sacred beacon
There is no dock in that bundle
Or else it would say + dock
there are three options Mouse mouse + dock and mouse + Mouse pad
I originally said thought the same but unfortunately it is not the case
It would not make sense to add a $50 item and for the price to go down 20 dollars
Here is a diagram to help illustrate what you get in each bundle
I would go with the dock one I don't have any idea how to get one separately
then just buy the firefly separate
If you really want the 15 saved dollars with the mouse pad bundle you could buy that but it would take an extra few seconds to charge your mouse very time you get up to use the toilet, but with dock dock you just set it down and it charges
I wish they implemented hyperflux tech into this or something
would be great

I mean wtf
It has Bluetooth
visual ingot
@eager lava "How do I connect the Razer Nari Ultimate to my computer?
You can either connect the Razer Nari Ultimate via the 3.5mm combo cable or wirelessly via the USB wireless transceiver."
It doesn't have bluetooth.
glass knoll
@eager lava unfortunately @visual ingot is right on this one. The Nari Ultimate does not have Bluetooth (hence you can't use it with your phone for example). Everything goes through the 2.4GHz dongle. As they're factory bound to the headset, it means that only that single dongle will work with that single Nari. Would be nice if there was a way to rebind a different dongle to it though

Ohh okay thank you! Was wondering lol

Guys
i reallly need help with my deathadder v2
i really need to know if the mouse is broken or the software is broken before my return time expires
I have installed and uninstalled Synapse multiple times, but the sensor problem is still there. So it’s a trade at this point: Get synapse i have low liftoff and bad sensor or dont use synapse i have a good sensor and high liftoff.... I Really want to use synapse cause i like the features and its look..
If i have synapse 3 installed, the sensor stutters when i strafe left or right
But i can change the liftoff range low
However the onboard memory doesn’t get the liftoff range or colours.... so at this point what should i do?
Please help
i need to mention the fact that i have the goliathus control mat and i checked it in synapse 3 when i did my test
slate mortar
Should i buy the razer kraken x with usb or the normal kraken x??
shut zenith
@slate mortar the normal kraken x has multiple supports, like you could easily connect it to your phone(if your phone has a headphone Jack) but I prefer the normal because you don't have to search for a dongle to connect it to phones or other devices. If you have a console too the usb version won't work. Get the normal one.
shut zenith
For deathadder v2?
shut zenith
Aha

probably because my mat is a bit old

That's cool

Which one to choose: alienware 240hz 1080p monitor or msi 144hz 1440p monitor

depends
on what do you want

its kinda useless

lunar maple
yet you have a 60hz
shut zenith
Yup
spring dew
Which one to choose: alienware 240hz 1080p monitor or msi 144hz 1440p monitor
@shut zenith ı recommend 240 if you can get 240 fps
can you send links of them
shut zenith
These are the two
I wanted to get an razer monitor but I didn't find one in my country
spring dew
ı reccommend to buy msı because :
1-it has bigger screen
2-it is WQHD
3-its cheaper
4-now you can use freesync with nvidia graphic cards so it is not an advantage
5-its curved
6- it has rgb
7-its slimmer
@shut zenith
uneven stone
The whole freesync with Nvidia cards is a little bit of a hit and miss. Sure Nvidia have relented, but alot of monitors that have it enabled just dont make any difference, and in some cases when the FPS went below 30 it started to stutter with it enabled. So I wouldnt use this as a plus. I would still go for the MSI though, and tbh, there are many cheaper monitors out there better that the MSi at that price point
shut zenith
You know, I think msi is better too
But alienware has rgb too, but that's just one thing.

I really like the comfort of the nari, and would rather have a wired headphone. So , I Just got a couple of questions:
Is it just me or using the 3.5mm jack gives a better sound?
And will there be any problems if I use it wirelessly and plugin it in via USB at the same time? (so I can avoid charging)
glass knoll
I believe it automatically turns off when plugged in via USB.
mint kayak
bruh it comes with a aux that charges it
hard raft
yeah. but I think it does use the battery still for the haptics right?
mint kayak
I think it will stay fully powered
glass knoll
The aux port doesn't charge it.
And yes, haptic feedback requires battery still. The aux port just makes the headset function like a Kraken Pro V2
The only way to charge the headset is to plug in the USB cable to the headset.
hard raft
Will I also not be able to calibrate on synapse if plugged in via jack?
visual ingot
@hard raft exactly, no USB connection means no data.
hard raft
Alright. Thank you all. Wish I can wire it via usb while using it. that would be perfect.
sacred beacon
I’m sorry that I’m being rude but of course it needs battery to do haptic feedback any movement especially as large as the haptics require electricity to function
Also you can charge it wile using it
glass knoll
Oh it does work still while charging? Even in wireless mode? Interesting.
Maybe I confused it with my Bluetooth headphones from JBL. When you plug those in to charge they automatically turn off.

Anyone know if the Goliathus Extended, Base Station and Laptop Stand are compatible to synapse 2.0? Im thinking about buying these to complete my setup but I still have a Man o War wireless headset and the RGB Mamba Wireless (With Dock) and these two arent synapse 3 compatible. Or maybe the will get compatible in the future?
Or is it possible to sync synapse 3 with synapse 2? xD
fair snow
no, i dont think you can
visual ingot
@hearty glacier Only Synapse 3 compatible.
hearty glacier
So I cant sync synapse 2 and synapse 3 devices?
And will Razer add older devices to synapse 3? I have the Mamba with charging dock from I think 2015 and in my opinion its still the best looking mouse with this dock...
Okay Razer Mamba hyperflux is lit too but very expensive xD
glass knoll
They added some older devices to Synapse 3, but I don't think they're adding anymore unfortunately 😦
hearty glacier
And newer devices wont work with synapse 2?
glass knoll
Nope
hearty glacier
wtf
glass knoll
Synapse 2.0 is legacy software
It's simply there to allow people to manage their old devices
hearty glacier
But its stupad that you cant really use old devices with new
glass knoll
It is what it is
hearty glacier
It sucks xD
glass knoll
No
tech companies do it a lot. Unless you're arguing that like 90% of tech companies are scams
Synapse 3 has been the only supported software for new Razer devices for a few years now, I want to say as far back at 2017
Does it suck? Yes. Is it a scam? No.
hearty glacier
It feels bad. If I think about upgrading from my Mamba RGB 2015 to the new wireless it feels like a 80€ step backwards
glass knoll
I use a Naga Trinity myself and have always used Naga mice from Razer so can't speak for the Mambas

You can run Synapse 2 and 3 at the same time, and if you get creative you could make them look good together still.

I talk about the RGB charging dock and the light strips

Chorazin is right about that too. It's not an either-or

I bought the Razer Man O War wireless used last week because I thought its a great deal for 50€. A wireless Razer headset with RGB chroma. I wanted to increase my setup with a Goliathus extended chroma instead of my old Vespula and sync it all up 😦

ah yeah, I believe the only Synapse 3 wireless headset is the Nari

I thought the man o war could be a nice used alternative 😦

It's a nice little headset from what I've heard, but yeah, S2 only

I mean, let me be fhe first to tell you the Goliathus extended chroma isn't exactly gonna be hard to sync up, it's the most basic RGB ever
hearty glacier
Im still happy with the lighting and the sound of the Man o War but now im a bit upset xD
visual ingot
It's one color at a time, just set them both to a color and you're done
hearty glacier
I propably use this S2 and S3 dual method. Because I mostly use a static lighting for my Ornata Chroma xD
visual ingot
Oh then you're good
hearty glacier
And I never used anything else that the wave effect for my maba wireless
So I think ill be fine
glass knoll
I use all S3 stuff
Blackwidow Chroma V2, Tartarus V2, Naga Trinity, Firefly, Base Station Chroma, Nommo Chroma, and Nari Ultimate
visual ingot
Yeah, all S3 stuff here too
(except for stuff like the Wolverine Ultimate and Panthera that don't use Synapse)
hearty glacier
I thought it would be a good idea to buy some older high end devices used instead of new low end haha
visual ingot
That's a good plan!
hearty glacier
No its not
Because of S3 support xD
But I think for me its fine. When I game I use only static lightning effects because otherwise I cant concentrate on the game xD. So it should be easy to try S2 and S3 dual solution
glass knoll
yeah, that'll be easy enough for you
I use integrations like Chromatics which require S3
hearty glacier
I never heard about a support stop for S2. I thought it is only like an experimental program and S2 is still the main xD
And I personal prefer the look of S2 haha
glass knoll
They've had it marked as legacy on their site for a couple of years now

Maybe I should just go for the old firefly instead of the goliathus extended and stay with S2 only

the only difference is that the Huntsman Elite is Opto-mechanical while the balckwidow elite is just mechanical

It's a little bit more than that. The Blackwidow has USB and audio passthrough, whereas the Huntsman Elite (while still requiring 2 USB ports), has underglow lighting on both the keyboard itself and the wrist rest

the passthroughs are more useful than the rgb wrist rest

this one doesn't have rgb, no multifunction keys. But for the price of under 100 CAD its your best bet

@alpine carbon I can't recommend any Razer Audio products sadly.
Currently the Microphone quality is sub-par, even on the dedicated mics, and the Headphone Drivers are tuned for Bass, which is bad for gaming, it makes Explosions heard more, but that's not what you want to hear, you want to hear Footsteps and Bullets, which are typically on the Highs and Mids.
https://sites.google.com/view/headphoneadvice/open-back-headphones/category-100?authuser=0 If you want a cheap but good quality pair of headphones, pick something from this list, with Neutral Mids and Emphasised Treble.
Recessed bass if you really don't want to hear the big booms
The "ideal" shooter headphones from this list are the ATH AD500X's
And then, if you don't have a lot of money for a Mic, https://www.amazon.com/Zalman-Zm-Mic1-Sensitivity-Headphone-Microphone/dp/B00029MTMQ/ref=sr_1_1 is a great mic even though it's cheap as balls.
If you have a decent amount of money to spare for a mic, then https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001R747SG/?coliid=I2MTKBG9SF740D&colid=360P79NG2QFST&psc=0&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it when it's back in stock, plus https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DY1F2CS/?coliid=I648DZ26FCGYR&colid=360P79NG2QFST&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it so you can position it well.
The Zalman Clipon Mic is still really good even for it's dirt cheap price.
As good if not better than the mic capsules in all of Razer's Headsets.
The Samson Q2U mic tends to run about 70 bucks or so.
Not recommended over the Samson Q2U
It's actually 60 bucks at Best Buy.
That's dope.
Same guy, so you can get an apples to apples comparison
And the awesome thing is, if you want to upgrade to an XLR setup, the Samson Q2U will also work with XLR!
Yes
It's so you can position the mic close to your mouth.
It's basically a mic that mostly singers would use, or at least the same style.
Samson > Snowball
All day long
It's much more versatile and is a higher quality.
No problem!
I always love helping people to get the ideal audio setup.
I'm going to soon be replacing my PC37X headset with that mic and stand.
I like my headset, don't get me wrong.
It's got a top notch mic, and great audio quality.
But, the clamping force of the PC37X's is much moree than that of my HD558 headphones.
And in longer gaming sessions it can be a pain.
glass knoll
Personally, I'm using an Audio Technica AT2020 for a mic (but I don't recommend it, dynamic is way better for most people). And for audio monitoring I use the ATH-M50X from Audio Technica

@brisk root their older model Tartarus devices don't have the scroll wheel. There's also the Orbweaver that doesn't have the scroll wheel. Personally, I like it

wintry fern
I was considering the 502 but it looks too finicky and the buttons just look like low quality
@sacred beacon for 1 synapse is way better , and two the basilsk is just way better made
sacred beacon
also the rubberized grip is cool
only reason I considered returning this mouse and getting the viper is because of the lower price and how its a "good FPS" mouse but I don't play for the reasons its better and I generally dislike super light mice.
look at these things
eww
they look so wabbly

The one thing I miss is the hyper scroll wheel. That scroller was the best dang fidget toy
sacred beacon
why would one want to scroll at the speed of light
wintry fern
For the same reason someone wants 20,000 dpi or a car that goes 267mph. Cause why not
sacred beacon
I just want 20,000 DPI cause it means its a more precise sensor
visual ingot
@wintry fern agreed on that hyper scroll wheel, it's so good.

@wintry fern agreed on that hyper scroll wheel, it's so good.
@visual ingot it's so satisfying

@sacred beacon you ever play a game with the sensor on 20k? Even at 12k the tiniest twitch can throw your aim off by feet. Better have nerves of steel 🤣

@visual ingot I got bored once, and tried playing warzone with 20,000 dpi. Holy hell, I move the mouse a mm, daggum I dang near go from The US to Australia with a tiny flick

Yuuuuup. I stick with 9k for games and 4k for usual desktop stuff. Anything more than 9k in most games and I'm a mess.

Is it true the razer opus is only available in china ?
Are they gonna release it globally ?

It doesn't look like the Razer Opus even exists
glass knoll
yeah no, don't expect to see them outside of China
wintry fern
It looks like Nose QC 35s and Steel Series Arctis had a baby, but odly I kinda want them

Why does it not look like a taser product
I see no logo
It just doesn’t look like an epic Razer product to me
icy solstice
hi
visual ingot
@sacred beacon It's not supposed to look "like an epic Razer product", they're aiming this at people that grew up with Razer stuff but now want something more grown up looking for travel.
I feel like that's the same sort of thing the Huntsman line is for, top tier gaming performance but it looks very classy and not "gamer"
If i turned off all the RGB on my desktop (and swapped out my Kraken Kitty for something like those Opus') it would fit into a professional setting flawlessly.
sacred beacon
ah
icy solstice
Ik this isnt razer support but no one can help me lmao i just got the huntsman te and i wanted to swap out the keycaps with razer pbt keycaps but then i broke the stabilizers also but thankfully the razer pbt keycaps come with opto mechanical stabs so i used them then my space bar started feeling very wobbly and unstable anyone know why or a fix
visual ingot
@icy solstice The Spacebar needs a little more OOMPH when you replace the keycaps than the rest of the keys. Make sure you put the stabilizers in the same spaces they were in on the original space bar, and you're using the right spacebar since the PBT set comes with two.
Just give it a firmer press in the middle and the sides
visual ingot
You're pushing it in too hard then
icy solstice
Or it feels quite heavy
visual ingot
It needs a firm press but not a super hard press
visual ingot
Same here, I have a Huntsman
visual ingot
That might not be on your switch since the TE has Reds
But the stabilizers should be the same
icy solstice
Hm
visual ingot
Are you using the right stabilizers?
icy solstice
Im not sure but i think so
visual ingot
Pull the spacebar off and let's see which ones you're using
icy solstice
visual ingot
Yeah, those are the right ones.
Now put it back on and give it a good press in the middle
brave sierra
okay so are those headphones gonna be release globally or nt?
razer opus
if its a no
why ?
icy solstice
Bruh i had this problem with my blackwidow te and they still didn't fix it
sacred beacon
yeah no, don't expect to see them outside of China
@Paladinleeds#6820
@brave sierra No idea why but that's your answer
sacred beacon
@icy solstice push down on both sides
left and right
to get it to grab the stabilizer bar
visual ingot
Yup
sacred beacon
Not sure if yours has the same stabilization bar but I would assume it’s similar
visual ingot
You don't want to JAM it in all the way to the bottom, but those little teeth need to grab the metal bars

Would it be worth it to pay the extra $100 for the basilisk ultimate or just get the basilisk v2 for $100 less?”
shut zenith
@quick prawn the basilisk V2 is really good, you don't have to pay that much.
visual ingot
I really love my Basilisk V2. IMO wireless isn't worth the extra $100. Grab a Razer Mouse Bungee too and you're still having a bunch of money

Do I recommend the ultimate? yes. is it worth the price? not really its a very premium mouse

i have regular basilisk
river ginkgo
razer
should
make
a hotswappable 60% keyboard that works with synapse and has kailh hotswap sockets, and you can buy barebones and is good build quality
and has good stabs
glass knoll
Honestly, I'd just want a full size Blackwidow or Huntsman with a standard bottom row from Razer
river ginkgo
but like the custom keyboard community is growing a lot (i think) and prebuilt companies are going to start loosing sales to people wanting to build custom keybaords
but they should make something similar to gmmk or gk61
glass knoll
I'd say the people after that sort of stuff wouldn't bu Razer even if Razer were to offer it
river ginkgo
but razer build quality and synapse enabled
but there are a lot of people i think who want something customizable but dont want to build a custom keyboard from scratch per se
glass knoll
Because of the notion that Razer is overpriced rubbish quality. So why would they trust Razer with a customisable keyboard? They wouldn't. So one from Razer IMO would not sell, at all.
river ginkgo
idk maybe ¯_(ツ)_/¯
but hotswap is also becoming more common in prebuilts
like the gmmk for example
glass knoll
Aye but again, people wouldn't trust Razer with it because of the general idea of their build quality (whether true or not)
They'd expect the switch to break the minute they tried to change it
So unless Razer can somehow get 90% of the population to figure out that Razer build quality isn't the tripe people say it is, it wouldn't sell IMO (and yes, Razer build quality is solid but there's a stigma associated with it. Just like how there's a stigma associated with Microsoft that it's enterprise office workstation stuff only)
river ginkgo
do people really think razer build quality is that bad?
glass knoll
Yep, and it's more common than you think
river ginkgo
hmm

Anyways, I'm gonna go on a live chat with Razer tomorrow and ask if they sell replacement 12 button sideplates for the Naga Trinity

I really wish I could get Razer to make a Huntsman TE with the Optical Purple Switches.
I LOVE TKL layouts
But, the Optical Red switches hurt after prolonged typing.
Gaming? They are great
glass knoll
That just reinforces that I should go for a Tartarus Pro and a Blackwidow Elite (with Orange switches)
glass knoll
Make sure to go for the yellow switches though

Yellow is mechanical linear + silent

But I want the Tactile feel

*I guess I will have to wait.
Not like I wasn't already going to need to wait.

I wonder if I can swap the keycaps between the Blackwidow and Huntsman TE
Booooooo
Razer doesn't use a standard bottom row for the Blackwidow TE
That makes me a sad panda
fervent hedge
Yeah...
But that still makes me a sad panda.
I wanted to use my Huntsman TE keys on a Blackwidow TE Chroma V2
glass knoll
they'll basically be the Huntsman TE keys just with the proper bottom row
fervent hedge
Yeah.
glass knoll
And technically, you could use the PBT Keycap upgrade set for just the bottom row, and use the HTE for the other keys
fervent hedge
Yeah...
But I can't just buy PBT Modifiers from Razer.
If I could, i'd be happier.
But
That's at least nice they give the option to buy the upgrade kit.
glass knoll
yeah, I'm glad they do multiple colours too
fervent hedge
Yeah
I honestly MIGHT just say eff it and go for a BW Elite
The dedicated media keys are nice
glass knoll
Honestly, the keyboard looks great
it's the one I want, with the PBT upgrade set (in pink)

@fervent hedge I have a bw elite , I love it , the media keys are remaped to some websites like weather.gov. and the pbt keycap upgrade is a must. The keys feel so much better and a tad bit grippyier

@elfin hamlet the numpad is nice for modernwarefare. The 1-9 are my different classes then the numpad are my killstraeaks

Planetside 2 has a lot of Voice Channels (Squad, Fireteam, Platoon, Outfit, and Proximity)

What’s a good Razer keyboard for the budget of £100
lethal reef
can i change the keycaps for the Razer Huntsman?
glass knoll
You sure can!
odd jolt
@cyan swan i would say the huntsman te is better then the huntsman
visual ingot
@odd jolt Kinda Apples and Oranges though. Linear keyboard switches aren't the best for typing, so if you need a keyboard for work/school and gaming, a standard Huntsman does both really well.
The TE will do gaming arguable a little better, but lots worse for a lot of typing.

I will hype the hell out of the Huntsman, I absolute love Razer's Purple Switches.

Heyo, need some advice...
I am coming from the Corsair Harpoon RGB Wireless (Which has totally died on me...)
I am stuck between the Razer Lancehead and the Razer Basilisk X HyperSpeed...
I am thinking the Lancehead is a better choice simply becuase, similar to the Harpoon, I can just plug it in and keep using it when it dies. Vs having to change bloody AA batteries in the Basilisk.
What say you guys?
sacred beacon
get the wired basilisk then lol
thick glacier
Not really what I am looking for. I don't enjoy wired mice.
That was the main selling point of the Harpoon was; I could use it wirelessly and effortlessly, then plug it directly in when needed
The feeling of a cable/wire is massively annoying
thick glacier
I've never had an issue with Li-Po batteries. The harpoon lasted 5+ days on a single charge. Even on more intensive days (Sitting at a PC for about 12-hours.)
sacred beacon
What's your budget?
thick glacier
Preferabily Sub $150 USD.
sacred beacon
you could get the viper ultimate its basically the lancehead but a newer version and you can set it on the dock or plug it in when needed
Or just get the lancehead
The basilisk is a lot different then these two
if money isn't an issue i would go with the viper if you wanna save go with the lancehead and get some RGB

how is the typing experience on the Huntsman TE
i play a lot of different games (rpg/fps/rts/moba)

well you can get clicky purple switches or linear reds

what does the standard one from razer website come with?

wait actually i think it only comes with reds
wheat ore
its red linear non clicky
alpine carbon
yes
wheat ore
i also write a lot of blogs
so was wondering about the typing experience
and i dont want to buy 2 different keyboards
alpine carbon
so you want a keyboard for gaming and blog writing?
wheat ore
gaming and typing for 1 or 2 hours if i need to
ive been recommended the Huntsman TE if i dont mind the noise
which i dont care about
speed and comfort is priority
alpine carbon
budget?
wheat ore
£130
alpine carbon
hmm
wheat ore
yea the Huntsman TE is the best, even for typing from all the recommendations
it was that or the Ducky , but ducky not optical
also recommended Wooting but not available
visual ingot
Who told you linear switches are best for typing?
If you're typing a lot you're gonna want something with and activation. With linear your fingers are just bottoming out with every stroke.
wheat ore
not the best for typing , far from. i mean in terms of recommendations for gaming and typing
alpine carbon
its personal preference
wheat ore
i wish i had the time to try all these keyboards but i dont
alpine carbon
I'd rather game with click and type with linear

i doubt its personal preference, or at least its not all personal preference
there are factors that are known to work best for gaming and typing
alpine carbon
"factors" its a keyboard man

im not going to use 2 keyboards man

i do both equally, i game for 3-4 hours and type 3-4 hours

what is the context of the first message tho
like in what situation would that be appropriate to say
wheat ore
whats the best alternative to Hunstman TE
but without the sensitivity
this keyboard is so damn sensitive
it almost starts typing by itself
mighty timber
The regular huntsman and huntsman elite with the purple switches have a 1.5mm actuation distance instead of the 1mm on the TE's red switch. It also takes 45g of force to actuate the keys on the other huntsmans with the purple switch while it takes 40g of force on the TE with red switches.
visual ingot
@wheat ore One of the reasons I suggested the standard Huntsman. The TE just isn't the best for typing due to it being extra sensitive for gaming.
sacred beacon
its because pro gamers like that .5 mm les distance to the actuation point
kinda weird
but pro gamers be pro gamers
wheat ore
Yea it's just too much. Im desperately looking for the best of both worlds. Gaming and typing
My priority is comfort and speed
Every review I've seen is biased
visual ingot
I mean..... points again at how he recommended you the regular Huntsman
sacred beacon
purple is the same as red except red is quiet just you have to push purple an extra mechanical pencil graphite stick length more lol
visual ingot
Nah, you can rest your fingers on purple without activating them
sacred beacon
don't you want that?
wheat ore
I guess. Is that regular huntsman?
sacred beacon
yes
visual ingot
@sacred beacon Yes, I mean that they are a lot less sensitive than the Reds
That small space does make a big difference
sacred beacon
points again^2 at how we recommended you the regular Huntsman
How does .5 mm make a huge difference
is it like how 2 ms matters or whatever
wheat ore
I tried a few games. I can't rest my fingers without activating
visual ingot
It definitely matters or why would they sell both?
sacred beacon
to make money
visual ingot
@wheat ore I type literally all day on my Huntsman, I use it for work. Zero issues with unwanted keystrokes.
sacred beacon
People see TE and go oh epic people use this so it makes them good and i want to use it to be like them
that would be why
marketing
wheat ore
Def wasn't my intention. I don't even play competitive in any genre
visual ingot
But there IS a difference between them. Linear keys are very different.
sacred beacon
and of course personal preference but I still don't see why it matters
the .5 mm difference

Will checkout the huntsman. Maybe even non razer brands
