Hi everyone! I am looking for an ergonomics gaming mouse.
First, I found out about the Trust GTX 144 which is gaming vertical mouse but ironically, the amazon ratings don't really inspired Trust 😨 ...And I didn't really find another vertical gaming mouse.
However, I am now looking at the Swiftpoint Z2 and the Razer Basilisk v3 and.. well... apart from pure marketing, I am wondering why they are talking about ergonomics for these mice... on what features are they basing themselves? 🤨
Any ideas ?

(Also, if you have any ergo mice suggestions, please feel free to share 🙂 )

[inner trail]

idk

[sturdy island]

attack shark x68he or keep my corsair k65 mini

glorious model d 2 pro 4/8k or attackshark r6

[charred birch]

Is there a 60€~ hot swappable 96% keyboard?

[charred plank]

What's your budget for the keyboard and mouse?

D2 is a pretty massive mouse but also super overpriced new

Especially given that trashy bamf sensor they use

[sturdy island]

i chose the atk r6

£25 off amazon

[vocal depot]

massive?

yk what else is massive?

the low taper fadeeee

[craggy mountain]

what is the best mouse for 60 dollars? do you guys have any rrecomendations?

[charred stag]

I would like to replace my keyboard. preferably full size. would really like the option to swap switches as my current keyboard lost right shift in about a year.

[lunar garden]

could someone help me finalize a mouse?

I want a body like this https://www.flipkart.com/portronics-toad-24-por-1611-ergonomical-6-button-design-runs-2-aa-battery-upto-1600dpi-wireless-optical-mouse/p/itmbd672224c2e8e

but with features exactly like this https://www.jiomart.com/p/electronics/archer-tech-lab-recurve-600-wireless-gaming-mouse-three-mode-connectivity-2-4g-bluetooth-wired-adjustable-10000-dpi-and-7-buttons-8-rgb-modes-pixart-3325-sensor-with-1000hz-polling-rate/609655708

also i'm fine with a lower dpi and polling rate

[charred plank]

Depends a lot on your ideal hand and grip shape and type

I'd say maybe an attack shark r2 in terms of just specs for that price point

But it's kinda small

[meager trout]

Glorious model o

O minus if you have small hands

[spiral mica]

any chinese mouse would be better than glorious

its a shit mouse by shit company

[quasi turtle]

atk from a specification view is okay, but in reality their mice just aren’t it

quality and everything isn’t great compared to cost equivalents

[thin kestrel]

Is someone owning an secretlab chair and can report on their softweave fabric?

Especially how it holds up during the colder days and how it is in terms of getting dirty, Actually did not have any issues with heat with faux leather btw in summer with my current one.

Currently owning a dxracer faux leather chair, which in terms of seating comfort holds up shockingly well cause its not just a hard surface with some foam on top, but the faux leather is falling apart now after like 6-7years of owning it and me having changed the gas damper multiple times despite being quite light.

I am pretty fine with faux leather right now, but i really like the seating comfort fabric can provide, combined with the really great looks of the Softweave option, hence why im interested in that option.

[grave tundra]

Can someone help me decide which is better out of these two tvs (idk why it linked weird)

ones the 2024 model and its a q6 but the other one is a q5?

[slow hare]

😍

[charred plank]

Huh? It's a magnesium mouse with incredibly good tolerances

Even most cheap plastic mice have tolerance issues

Attack shark r 2 and 3 are pretty decent given what they are and their cost besides the small size

Although they could be much better

But they're cheap

wouldn’t it be against the point to not have a non detachable cable… on a wireless mouse

My monitor goes up to 144Hz, but I use 120 Hz because it's a nice even number...

Am I a bad person?

[tardy saddle]

Not at all. Personal preference. At least you get 120Hz. I'm stuck at 60Hz.

[coral ferry]

Maybe someday you can afford a HFR monitor

[bitter oar]

very bad indeed. nukes your house

[bitter oar]

can it be 1800?

[charred stag]

1800 for a keyboard is crazy

I have a UHD Samsung that I stopped using because it was just too annoying to use with Windows' scaling issues

I just use it for my Xbox now

Might have to drag it back out for the mirrored display for my "VR" Headset

[tardy saddle]

This is largely why I won't go higher than 1440p (sometimes 1600p on laptops) on my devices. Both Microsoft and 3rd party developers still don't know how to properly scale their UI in all situations.

Upgrading to newer 1440p120 or 1440p144 Dell UltraSharp IPS (or OLED) displays would be nice though.

[coral ferry]

And I tried setting it to 1080p in Windows, then letting it go to uhd for games, but then it just messes up all my windows

[chrome raft]

Im needing some guide for new screen.
My long lasting partnership with Dell UltraSharp U3014 ended with vertical line auroras.

So Im now looking for screen replacement. This screen was my main-one what was used for editing photos and videos with some gaming.
Im looking for around 400-500€ screens to replace this one. Would love to have some suggestions with it.
Any good hints for this?
I would prefer 30"+ due I got used to have that size screen and it was really good for workflow.

[snow linden]

Dunno where I could put this

Old ah PC

Anyone know any of the stuff in the bottom of the MoBo or what the massive unit is on the right

Would be way better than an f75

[still glade]

I'm in love but sadly doesn't seem to be available for my country 😐 I'm so tired of my Corsair k75 rgb

[charred plank]

Look into leobog hi75

[still glade]

Thank you, seems to be available, just hoping the Shipping doesn't cost a kidney.

[young spoke]

i might buy

[scarlet plume]

Literally joined the server just to ask for thoughts on the 8Bitdo 108 key 100% board and the Arzopa K81

[bitter oar]

Price?

[true nimbus]

the 8bitdo is nice, however there are better option out there in the price category. im not familiar with the Arzopa k81 but for the price and the looks of it I would give it a try ngl

[true nimbus]

the keychron V6 and the epomaker rt100 are great alternatives for full length mechanical keyboard if you are looking for a prebuilt ones. there are some amazing full length kits out there but I believe they are more expensive in the long run idk

the rt100 with silent switches is especially nice I hear. or not hear i guess xD

[forest trout]

anyone got a tipp for a good KVM Switch (4Port) 2 display (USB Hub included)

[ancient jay]

Looking for a good mouse, currently eyeing the Viper V2 Pro, Lamzu Thorn and Viper V3 Hyperspeed

Budget would be around $100, so V2 Pro kinda overshoots it, so I would have to wait another month or so to get it

[worldly garden]

Qk101 ?

[dark solstice]

Any idea for alternatives to this USB Hub that also has 2x USB-C DP connections? https://lionweitech.com/products/lionwei-usb-c-to-usb-c-hub-dual-monitor-adapter-5-in-1
Can't find it in any store that ships to EU 😦

(pls @ me)

[charred plank]

If you're looking for something similar in size to viper but just better I'd say get an attack shark r2

[ancient jay]

Not an option for me

[charred plank]

Why?

[ancient jay]

I live in Kyrgyzstan, my options are pretty limited

[charred plank]

I doubt AliExpress won't ship there

[ancient jay]

Yeah.... But I don't wanna wait for shipping, and I'm a minor anyway, just easier to buy local

Don't have a card

https://gamestore.kg/product-category/aksessuary-pk/mouse/?orderby=price-desc

[charred plank]

Do your parents not have a card?

[ancient jay]

If you're willing to look through these options, I'd appreciate it

[ancient jay]

I feel iffy about asking them for it

[wispy jolt]

I just bought the epomaker TH80 and I love everything about it except for the keycaps. Im thinking of switching to a more vibrant set of keycaps like the hyper x pudding keycaps. Would they fit properly on the TH80?

[fiery sail]

any thoughts on the trust TK-150 silent, just as an alt keyboard at night to not wake up my GF (currently on a 10 year old 40€ rubberdome and besides noise satisfied with it, so i dont need anything premium)

for 10€ i cant hate it

its either that or the cherry G80 3000N TKL silent red for 51€

which could maybe be 2 in 1, was looking for a silent mechanical keyboard anyway

[raw jay]

Can anyone here help me build my own keyboard, like is there a good website to know what parts are compatible with what, i currently only have a pbc

I want to upgrade my MSI MAG27C to a much nicer monitor and go to 1440. Need recommendations because I am simply feeling stifled by the research.
Anyone have a 27" 1440 monitor that they absolutely love but spent less than $600 on?

GPU: RX 6700XT

[fiery sail]

i got the KTC M2720HS

cost me 260€ and in the US there usually are multiple 1440p monitors with mini LED backlight, which is amazing and doesnt make u spend double to get OLED, but is a solid middle ground between standard LCD and OLED

maybe u can find something like an AOC Q27, or the coolermaster tempest GP2711, which is exactly my monitor, just the stand is made by coolermaster

just make sure it has 1ms MPRT response time

the only other important aspect is VA or IPS. basically, IPS makes it easier to view from off angles, so if u regularly look at ur monitor while not even in front of it, the screen looks a bit glossy and shines a bit, but as long as ur in a normal position u wont see that. i never notice it and even when my GF is next to me we can both look at it without having any of that.

with IPS u wont have to worry about that, but if u look at both from a normal position, VA will look better, bc it has better contrast and often is the cheaper option.

just avoid the acer nitro XV5, that model has SO MANY flaws and is very unpleasant to use. u pretty much need to change settings whenever u switch from gaming to desktop/wathcing videos or movies and a few more things.

other than that , mini LEDs as long as u watch out for response time have no land mines.

for IPS panels u want at least 800, better 1k+ zones. for VA around 350 is the minimum, u dont need that many bc it naturally has better contrast. 500+ is already great tho

[leaden rover]

Good insight in the IPS vs. VA. I hadn't considered the contrast differences

[bitter oar]

it’s meaningless, manufacturers often lie about the 0.5/1ms gtg / 1ms mprt or cherrypick like few values under the best conditions where the monitor would theoretically do such low values but under normal use no. i’d entirely ignore the response specs and just look for reviewer data

[fiery sail]

thats the better option ofc. its worth the minor headache

usually all the landmines within mini LEDs are all the 2ms+ monitors. all the other budget options are absolutely serviceable.

[leaden rover]

hey, thanks for giving me some direction. I really appreciate it. One can look at reviews until your eyes pop out and still not feel like you're at step 1 -- especially on monitor reviews.

[fiery sail]

felt like that in the beginning as well.
if u have 2 or 3 models u cant decide between, just tag me and i'll tell u the difference and if its worth the cost increase

[leaden rover]

The Dell S3222DGM looks interesting. Comparing it to the AOC Q27, I am failing to see why the Dell wouldn´t be a solid buy at $230 USD.

[bitter oar]

https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/dell/s3222dgm

https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/aoc/q27g3xmn

https://youtu.be/XbQ8Pe4WVxc?

[fiery sail]

well the dell isnt mini LED and therefor has no local dimming, which is would be a great uplift in picture quality

its pretty much a standard 1440p monitor which at similar refresh rates can be had at just over 100$

[leaden rover]

yeah, just saw that it wasn´ t mini-LED. I dismissed it since it is mainly good for just gaming but with a fair bit of black smearing still present.

I seem to be settling in on the AOC Q27G3XMN

so far

[drowsy saffron]

any switches you guys are fond of?

thinking of trying something else after having typed on gateron reds for years

[bitter oar]

depends on the price

[drowsy saffron]

switches are not gold

[bitter oar]

there is a difference if you want a switches at $0.1 per or $0.5

[drowsy saffron]

make it 0.5 then

any nicer switches than gateron reds?

[mortal spruce]

depends on if you just want linear byt Kailh box switches are really good I am running box jades in my keyboard right now and box reds and box yellows are also really nice

[bitter oar]

hmx for sure, oil kings, gateron 2.0/3.0s

ws had decent prelubed switched if you don’t want to lube them yourself

ktt

there are a lot of options, the switch market is probs just as wide as iems now

[quasi turtle]

mx black meta

oil kings are fine, just severely overpriced (imo)

[bitter oar]

yeah, they’re pricey

jwk

[fiery sail]

if ur fine paying 0.5 wouldnt it be worth it ordering a test kit before?

would also be super useful for friends who maybe want to get a new keyboard or switches

[elder owl]

+1 vouch for that monitor

Nvidia with HDR and whatnot can be a little funky at times but the local dimming and max brightness is really really good

[leaden rover]

Thanks. I am comparing the AOC Q27 with AOC - CQ32G4VE as I would absolutely love to have a bit more screen real estate.
For sub $300 both of these monitors seem to stand out.
I run an all AMD machine (cpu, gpu) so not too concerned with NVIDIA issues. However, I do take issue with features--like HDR--that just suck. It's like, why even offer it if it's going to suck? lol
But again, for sub $300, I'm not sure that will bother me that much.

[elder owl]

HDR with dimming zones is usually okay, for that AOC it's has a bit of blooming but honestly very usable

27 isn't that big so it's less noticeable than if it was say, a 55" TV

[leaden rover]

ok, leaning back to the AOC Q27. Mini-LED is just better in brightness and color contrast metrics for sure.

[fiery sail]

yep, at similar price i would also HIGHLY lean into mini LED.
bigger screens have both pros and cons. especially with competitive games both of those lists can get quite large 😄
but unless u know that u severely prefer the pros over its cons (and know them) i at least wouldnt pay any extra just for a bigger screen

[leaden rover]

agreed. I am also crazy frugal, so I am always looking for the best bang for the buck.

[fiery sail]

pretty much the only other options would be a 1440p oled for double the price (idk but paying that much for response time and contrast seems not worth to me)
a 1440p ultrawide at the same price, can be nice for immersion, especially in singleplayers that can take advantage of the large FOV, like racing games and 3rd person RPGs
or just going with a 100-150$ 1440p which only sacrifices mini LED and HDR, which especially in competitive games and when watching movies isnt that important.

if u save the money, that could go towards a future upgrade, the monitor would be a great 2nd or 3rd monitor, since it wouldnt waste a lot of its potential there, or u just have it as backup. its the USA after all, obviously idk if u have extra healthcare, the rest of ur financial situation or maybe live in an area thats prone to natural disasters. just a heads up if u actually want to spend that much.

[leaden rover]

haha. Yeah, I have too many other expenses to go much higher in performance. I think $250 is a fair price for an upgrade to what I have been using for 4-5 years.
OLED is certainly not in my near future, nor do I need it to be. Again, I'm frugal.
My entire machine is 3+ gens behind, so I am not an enthusiast who is looking to be on the cutting edge.

[lime skiff]

@charred plank just got my bridge 75 in the mail, love it!

sounds great, u'll have a lot of fun with it

Ngl, every cherry switch i tried was a scratchy and pingy mess

[charred plank]

[lime skiff]

prolly gonna grab some vv1s but i absolutly adore the sound rn

[quasi turtle]

all the endgame stuff has lubed+filmed+spring swapped mx blacks, plus they’ll be naturally scratchy

[charred plank]

I'm just not a big fan of having a scratchy switch. Feels cheap and unfinished

[quasi turtle]

mhm

just depends on preferences

[charred plank]

Any time I use MX switches it kinda reminds me of cheap gamer boards tbh

[fair ruin]

mx blacks are pretty much meta for the big spender keyboard folks. Cant stand them myself but I am glad they bring people so much joy.

[worldly garden]

💀

[elder owl]

Not really tbh, I back in the day they were but chinese switches ever since cherry's patent expired have been crazy good

[fair ruin]

I am just saying what I see on keyboard hobbyist discords. The majority of enthusiasts are definitely on non cherry switches but mx blacks on an alu plate common as hell for the hype board buyers

Hello there fellow space invaders enjoyer

[ebon hound]

My mouse was having problems, it felt like it was fighting against me, moving erratically, not being overly responsive. I thought it was going to be this whole ordeal to fix it's software or some random setting I had messed up by accident.

There was just a bit of fluff partially obstructing the sensor. I'm glad I checked that 🤣

[fiery sail]

looking for gaming mice recommendations
location: germany
budget: would prefer ~50€ but no more than 100€
requirements: cable and following form factor:

[young spoke]

mmo mouse format?

i can personally vouch for the m913 and the m908

the m908 isnt wireless and the 913 is

only difference iirc

[fiery sail]

redragon?

[young spoke]

yeah

[fiery sail]

just checking, thats 40€ here, looks fine

[young spoke]

ive been using it for a month now and i used the m908 for about a year now both are great mice

i dont play many competetive shooters i mostly bought it for the utility of the mouse

[fiery sail]

idk how easy i can get used to the thumb buttons

thats my only concern right now

[young spoke]

i got used to them within a week

i use the front 2 rows for controls like ctrl+c ctrl+v ctrl+f etc etc

the back 2 are for other controls like the windows button volume up/down etc

for games i just bind them to 1 2 3 4 5 etc then just bind them in game to things like reload weapon 1/2 etc

id get the m913 over the m908 just for the wireless compatibility even if you arent going to use it a detachable cable is nice especially when its usb c you can use other stuff for

[fiery sail]

u never notice the cable being detachable while playing?

[young spoke]

no

with it attached its locked it it feels exactly like the non detachable m908

[fiery sail]

15€ more is quite a lot for that tho

[young spoke]

id 100% get it

wireless is a great feature

[bitter oar]

look for paw3395’s

[fiery sail]

thats wireless

[bitter oar]

it’s just sensor model

[fiery sail]

where i live i can only find wireless ones

[bitter oar]

but you should look for these ideally as most good budget mice have it

[fiery sail]

have what?

[bitter oar]

paw3395

it can be found in like $15 mices nowadays

[fiery sail]

oh lol

now i got it xD

[bitter oar]

the dragon uses older/lower end paw3335 and 3327

they’re not bad, probably enough for you but not perfect

the mcu is also important

but usually they’re just fine even if you don’t get nordic

[fiery sail]

i thought it was a specific mouse and the "sensor model" was the wireless model xD

bc pretty much the only mouse that popped up when i searched for paw 3395 was one from attack shark

[bitter oar]

oh

there are hundreds of mices that use paw3395

[fiery sail]

yeah filtered for it on another website now

what is mcu?

[bitter oar]

micro computing unit*

[fiery sail]

there isnt a single 3395 mouse that has my desired formfactor and is cabled

or even with just the formfactor

[bitter oar]

hmmm, gimme second

yeah, i can’t find one either mb

[bold turret]

Which one should I get? Mouse is on a sale for €60 and the monitor is €120 but I have a €75 budget so. Mouse or saving up?

[bold turret]

Hey the g pro x superlight is €60 in Netherlands shipping to you is probably only around 10€

[fiery sail]

wrong formfactor

[bold turret]

Sad, it’s a good mouse though

[fiery sail]

well, im not interested in batteries dying on me in a tournament again and im too spoiled with that formfactor so both is a must

[thorny ferry]

pick ur poison

[young spoke]

i’d 100% recommend the m913

once lasted me 4 days on wireless not charging it

still had 30% battery left lmao

[fiery sail]

battery i absolutely dont care.
the only time i would use it is when we go to sleep to switch yt videos but even that with my current always wireless mouse we do like... not even once a week.

but it also has a better sensor and 1 or 2 more things goign for it, so i will go for the 913 most likely. got both on a price alarm and whichever comes first i'll buy

unless someone else recommends sth even better, currently im just tired of telling everyone that its not the formfactor bc apparently noone can look at 1 picture xD

[young spoke]

real

the m913 is a great mouse for the price

elecfox has £22 shipping why even put the board on a £22 sale if you just tack that on in shipping cost lol

[kind kraken]

what are some thoughts about the pg27ucdm

not released yet, but thoughts on 4k OLED @ 27"?

or is it better to just use 32" (32ucdm)

[fiery sail]

i can find at least 3 4k 27 inch oleds

but its legit double the price

with 4k oleds, and kind of 3rd or newer gen oleds in general, entry models do 99.99% of what the high end models do.
most of them come with 240+ Hz refresh rates, response times are completely neglegable.
and its mostly if u prefer the up and downsides of WOLED/QD OLED and matt or glossy finishes.

for any of those i would never pay more than 10% more than the cheapest model.

[bitter oar]

is that the one hw monitors/unboxed reviewed?

sure

if you want high pixel density or 32” is too big

[fiery sail]

but not if u could literally get 2 32''

u could buy a 7900XT with the money u have left xD

1440p oleds also have this minor problem of text sharpness, which is why high pixel density is important, but that is compeltely gone at 4k.

so its just the usual slight pixel density that is better for 27 inch, or the slightly higher immersion and usually higher brightness which is good for 32 inch.
also 32 inch is pretty decent as a TV replacement if u have ur bed and PC in the same room

[boreal rivet]

realforce is better

[kind kraken]

interesting

[lone tinsel]

so i just tried 1 linear switch that came with my nuphy airs
and damn are these much better

feels so much smoother than my tactile switches

much more refined as well
although i do feel like it's a bit too easy to press
so maybe not the best for typing

(cowberry vs wisteria switches)

[boreal rivet]

realforce is better

[fiery sail]

interesting

someone suggest me a super cheap keyboard that performs well

thats great, never seen a curved monitor turned 90°
seems to be really great for the bottom half, but the top end looks a bit overangled to me, how is it for u?
otherwise u could maybe make it lean backwards a bit

Anyone know of a displayport dock that can drive 2x displays at 1440p60 over USB-C that is also powered from USB C ideally

Ive just been through 2x ugreen dual 4k60 hdmi docks only to realise the laptops 4k30 limitation on HDMI is only for one monitor, and the bandwidth is shared when using 2 monitors over usb c, hence resulting in only 1080p60 being supported and 1440p being completely broken, really annoyed manufacturers dont make this clear, displayport has 2x the bandwidth though over usb c so that will work with 2x displayport to HDMIs (I think)

Looking at this and just having 1 of these on a displayport to hdmi (which I have an adapter spare for) but am worried it will just internally be using a displayport to hdmi converter chip, ugreen doesnt specify: https://www.amazon.co.uk/UGREEN-Revodok-Docking-DisplayPort-ThinkPad/dp/B0CR6J2HCK

Corsair keyboard

[charred plank]

What's your budget

And size preference

And any other info you can give

It isnt

A $30 linky 87 is leagues better

You just don't have a reference for other things so you think it's good

What makes you think that?

So you just don't get how things work in the physical world

Don't give input when you don't know

It's a normal keyboard but poorly designed

Nothing is special about corsairs to make them more reliable

It's a trashy tray mount

@wheat eagle if your budget is $100 get a bridge 75. It's made of CNC aluminum with a steel weight, has gasket mounts, is easy to assemble and disassemble die to the ball catch system, and it much much much better built, sounding, and feeling to type on.

Did you really leave just to make some trashy meme cause you have no knowledge about how things work?

You're the type of person to buy a rebadged car for 3x the price of the same thing with a different emblem up front

@sturdy island let me ask you though

What makes you think the keyboard is good and relative to what

Infact

[boreal rivet]

You should buy this https://cannonkeys.com/products/photon

[charred plank]

Compare it physically to a bridge 75

[boreal rivet]

Or a realforce

[charred plank]

Apparently you can't cause you still haven't answered my question

I remember when children just got what their parents got them but didn't act like the dumbest consoomer to shill the same garbage because the brand needs their protection

Kids are devolving

I'm getting old waiting for you to explain what makes k65 so great

I wouldn't be talking if my pfp was a hand drawn fursona 💀

Just saying

https://tenor.com/view/aaron-four-amigoes-you-are-a-furry-bday-gift-for-ari-gif-16518162

Its not an argument til you give me a reason k65 is so great relative so anything else

No, cause I'm not 6 going on 7

How old are you anyways? Discord tos has a minimum age

That's not a physical aspect

So you get what the 5 senses are i hope

Use them

And use your words

And explain what makes the k65 good

In what way

https://tenor.com/view/facepalm-really-stressed-mad-angry-gif-16109475

And that's just some of them

Oooor

You can just not shill a trashy keyboard to people who don't know better

You got it for free so you can just use it and not give bad advice

But don't screw over people spending their own money

If you're a kid who can't give valid advice or input just don't

It's easier to say nothing than to be counter productive

Do your studying or something

It'll help you out

Advising someone get a $100 board that's worse than $20 boards won't help you

Or them

You realize where Corsair boards are made right?

China

Same factories as any other board

There isn't some magical american engineering making them special

They use the same controllers and parts as any keyboard

But worse tolerances, materials, and design

They're meant for consumers who don't know better and just buy the brightest thing they see in bestbuy

No

Your parents bought it

And you feel a need to justify it cause it's all you have used

Which is fine

Enjoy your keyboard

But don't shill it

You can own something that's terrible value and just not recommend it

I owned a trashy $200 Razer keyboard at one point in time. I realized at the time even though that shilling it to people would make me an evil person

Cause I knew there were better cheaper boards

Now that I own board boards I know there are $20 boards that are better

You're 13. You can't work in almost any state yet, so presumably your parents gave you that money. I would recommend saving it for college though or something rather than wasting it now

But what might help you

Don't waste it on trashy name brand stuff

If you have a limited supply of money get the best thing you can per $

Not the worst

If you can

Return it and get a linky 87

And save the remaining $70 for books in college or something

At least in your early classes it'll maybe buy you a textbook or lab manual

You will in college

But even if you want to waste your money

Just don't give advice

If you don't know how something compares to other things, just don't give input you don't understand

Feedback requires a point of reference

So how does it perform well...

Good is a relative term

If it's $100 and sounds, is built like, feels like, and is less modular than a $20 keyboard then it's not "good"

Those suck too

I'll tell you right now some helpful advice

The more marketing accompany has usually is the worse the product is per $

It'll help you long term to understand this

Marketing isn't free

And you pay for it as a consumer

And in that mainstream realm you're paying almost entirely for marketing

@sturdy island enjoy your keyboard but don't give advice on things you don't have any experience in please 🙏

[tardy saddle]

They said super cheap that is good, and good is subjective. In the grand scheme of mechanical keyboards, it fits both those criteria. It's relatively super cheap and good enough for basic use. If you have other suggestions, let the use know, but let's not flamewar while we're at it.

[charred plank]

good isnt that subjective

how you weigh it might be

but that board is just outright bad

its designed and akin to $20 boards

if they want a really rattly tray mount pay $20

itll be as good and likely ironically come with better caps

[tardy saddle]

Great, no need to tell me. Tell the user and provide some other recommendations.

[charred plank]

but I also wouldnt say $100 is that cheap in the current market

thats literally enough to get nice cnc aluminum boards with weights and premium features

a bridge 75 is less than that

and thats prebuilt with a cnc aluminum chassis, steel weight, gasket mounts, ball catch assembly, reprogramability, etc

Thoughts on a MSI 275QF for 144€ from Amazon warehouse with the description "Small cosmetic imperfection on bottom or back of the item"?
https://www.msi.com/Monitor/MAG-275QF

[fiery sail]

amazing honestly. the cheapest monitors with nearly identical specs start at 200€
with slightly worse response times at 150€
u could go mini LED for a better picture quality but then we are talking 250€ or more

[bitter oar]

if it’s not imperfection on the display itself good deal

[jagged wagon]

the listing just got updated so it probably sold
unlucky I waited too long

not worth anymore now I guess

[fiery sail]

if u dont care about how good the stand looks, u still wont find a better deal below 200, let alone below 150

if u do care, then its bad

[jagged wagon]

the old listing came back

I might just get it now

[jagged wagon]

well I get -22% and -20€ together on all monitors

so a lot come out really cheap

[upper radish]

Yo any suggestions for an gaming keyboard (possibly mechanical) for around 70 dollars? My old one is currently starting to break so im starting to look for a new one

Happy to consider something like a elg 120DH with repeating stations if needed.

[charred plank]

Look into leobog hi75

Actually

Scratch that

Inky 75 is back in stock

Look into that

[young spoke]

shipping costs of that are ridiculous

anyway i already scratched my ak820 pro screen lol

[charred plank]

?

Where are you

[young spoke]

england

[charred plank]

When I checked shipping was pretty normal

It's probably cause england taxes all imports to hell

[young spoke]

i was considering it on sale but the sale was literally just the normal price but split between the board and shipping

[charred plank]

Makes getting keyboards there in general a pain unfortunately

[young spoke]

not really

i got my ak820 pro for cheap

[charred plank]

It's why getting a neo in england is such a pain too

[young spoke]

ehh

most things on amazon are pretty reasonably priced because they handle all the shipping 90% of the time

[young spoke]

dont know how this isnt a false sale scam lol

there was no shipping cost when it wasnt on sale

[charred plank]

Because the shipping cost is normal for everyone else

Again

England has pretty harsh imports

[young spoke]

sure

but dont advertise a sale when the price is exactly the same

[charred plank]

...

If the price was $100 plus shipping and dues you'd pay more

It's not like England only taxes imports that are on sale

[young spoke]

no?

the price was 89 before the sale with no shipping

the sale was 57 and 32 shipping

[charred plank]

If you don't like that though move or vote for politicians that will be more light on tariffs

[young spoke]

this isnt an england problem

[charred plank]

And for anyone else shipping is like $5. Plain and simply it's because where you are

Which is fine

Means you need to work around it

And eat shipping cost or buy products from less tariffed countries

Or buy from local vendors

[worldly garden]

Just go to prototypist

If u are in england

Jae is a friendly dude

[charred plank]

I don't get the point in pretending england doesn't have tariffs though and your shipping and import cost are the global norm

[young spoke]

thats not what im complaining about

im complaining that they cant just put something on sale then not provide a sale

[charred plank]

The sale on the base item is still there

[young spoke]

have you got a source on the fact its 5 dollars else where

[young spoke]

yeah

[worldly garden]

https://prototypist.net

[charred plank]

But they don't get free shipping world wide nor do they get to skip imports to give you a better deal

[young spoke]

but before it wasnt on sale and didnt have a shipping charge

[charred plank]

Only way they could do that is eating the cost

[young spoke]

if you put something on sale it has to actually be cheaper

[charred plank]

And that would put them at a slim to potentially negative profit margin

[young spoke]

what about them

[young spoke]

so dont put it on sale then

what they are doing is quite literally illegal

[charred plank]

Let's say tariff is 20% and shipping is $20 and it's combined into shipping and handling cost

[young spoke]

yeah

[worldly garden]

England vendor

[charred plank]

Would it cost more to ship a $100 item at $10 plus 20% or $80

[young spoke]

they dont have an inky75

[charred plank]

Is 20% of $100 less or more than 20% of $100

The sale didn't make shipping to you more expensive

Nor is it a scam for them to charge you shipping instead of taking a loss

[worldly garden]

Is chinesium anyway, look for smth else there

Save both troubles from the board and shipping itself

[young spoke]

ive already bought an ak820 im good

[charred plank]

Ironically it's one of the few boards not made in China

[worldly garden]

Mb then

Im against 75’s tho

[young spoke]

it is

[charred plank]

It isn't

[young spoke]

it is

you cant put something on sale then charge the same price for it

[charred plank]

It's from Indonesia which is not China @young spoke

[worldly garden]

Thats the trick lol

[worldly garden]

SEA makers isnt reputation anyway

[charred plank]

You can when it doesn't say free shipping and that happens to be the shipping cost

[young spoke]

if you sell a product for £89 no shipping then put it on sale for £57 and £32 shipping then thats a scam

[charred plank]

If it wasn't on sale shipping would cost more

[worldly garden]

Except tgr and singa

[charred plank]

That's just how tariffs work

[young spoke]

no?

[worldly garden]

Maybe nuxroskb too

[young spoke]

there was no shipping cost when not on sale

[charred plank]

Dudes been brain rotted by Amazon free shipping

[young spoke]

it was £89 without shipping charges

after the sale it was £57 with a £32 shipping charge

making £89

[charred plank]

So now remove that sale

[young spoke]

£89

[charred plank]

Does it now cost more or less

Note

[young spoke]

not on sale its £89

[charred plank]

Shipping cost doesn't go away

[young spoke]

the exact same price

[young spoke]

it did

[worldly garden]

Thats the trick

Lol

[young spoke]

there was no shipping charge buying it for £89

[charred plank]

So $89+57+32 is the same as 89+32?

Are you struggling @young spoke

[young spoke]

IT WASNT £89+£32

it was £89

there was no shipping charge

it was £89 because shipping was included in that £89 price

[charred plank]

Then they offered free shipping cause they had enough profit margin to do so

Which again

[young spoke]

how fucking dense can you be to not understand that

[charred plank]

Isn't a scam or illegal

It's just them eating cost from their profit margin which they couldn't do at a lower price

[woeful lantern]

In Europe and the UK there is a law a sale has to be real

[young spoke]

exactly

[woeful lantern]

The stores can be sued

[young spoke]

the sale was not real in any way at all

it cost the same on sale and not on sale

please point out what you arent understanding about that

[charred plank]

Which it is. They didn't claim free shipping, and shipping cost is pretty reasonable in other countries. Literally just tariffs make shipping to the UK a pain

[young spoke]

it isnt a sale

[charred plank]

Buying keyboards there in general from non local vendors is a pain because of this

[young spoke]

its the same price sale or not

tariffs arent relevant to that rule

if its on sale it HAS TO BE cheaper then buying it not on sale

[charred plank]

It isn't, but ignoring that, idk how you don't get England's shipping price isn't the same as the rest of the world

[young spoke]

i do

its more expensive to ship stuff here

but thats not an excuse

[charred plank]

It literally is

[young spoke]

no it isnt

[charred plank]

It costs more so you charge more

Welcome to capitalism

[young spoke]

ok?

so when its on sale

[charred plank]

If you want companies selling at a loss out of love of you, move to communist north Korea or something

[young spoke]

no i want them to not break the law

[charred plank]

Yes, when it's on sale, they can still charge you shipping to not lose money if they don't claim free international shipping

And it's not a scam

Or illegal

[young spoke]

it is

[charred plank]

Or abnormal

[young spoke]

it is illegal by definition

[charred plank]

Or even wrong to do

[young spoke]

its 100% wrong

[charred plank]

You can call the cops and tell them you were charged shipping I guess

[young spoke]

please explain what you think is happening

i really want to see where your going wrong

[charred plank]

Call 911

Tell them

[young spoke]

they are charging £89 off sale

with £0 shipping

so the entire price is £89 off sale yes?

then when its on sale they are charging £57

but they are charging £32 shipping

meaning they are charging £89 on sale

£89 full price off sale £89 full price on sale

you see where thats wrong?

[young spoke]

that isnt the police number here lmao

@charred plank understand it?

[fiery sail]

i wouldnt waste my time with a person like that.

pretty much everythign that guy said is blatant misinformation.

1. ofc its illegal and fraud by definition to charge a fee or price thats not advertised.
2. most countries even have particular laws against those specific offers, that increase the price to then put sth. on a higher % sale, or in this case, when its not a sale at all, its even worse.
3. (even if they dont have a profit margin, which i highly doubt but have no proof of) selling with a loss is a standard deception tactic. there even is a name for it, loss leader. u get a buyers attention, might make a small loss, but either enough people buy more products that would not have visited that store or site without that offer or some who would never consider buying there now go there more often and tell friends about the amazing deal they got.
4. especially north korea is anything, but a communist country
5. even a communist country cant make things out of thin air, they still ahve to produce the goods. its just that the producing goods like iron, timber etc. belongto the state or COMMUNES and not to private companies or a single person (and u still have a currency then btw)
6. the police is not where to report such a case, but customer protection

at that point it has to be deliberate misinformation and not just an accident or someone posting without propwer knowledge.

Hello , I think this is the most appropriate channel for this query, (please correct me if I'm wrong ).

I am a kayak instructor currently looking for a phone case that can resist going under the water for a decent amount of time. I have a pixel 9, and while it is resistant to water id like to take the extra caution.

I've used the pouches before, but one broke on me and bricked my old pixel 6 so I'm looking for something more permanent. I've looked into brands like ghost Tek and armour X but read some non confidence inducing reviews. I've also looked at the likes of kraken which is just too hard core (meant for diving and stuff).

Please if you have any suggestions please let me know :)

dont have to pay too much more to get a keychron v1 max which would be a lot more reliable

[pure sundial]

ive got one that thing is awsome

just make sure to not to put gateron yellows in it, their so rattily

[worldly garden]

lube the switch

[pure sundial]

no, like stem wobble

lubing wouldnt help that

[worldly garden]

film

[pure sundial]

i hold my case, that would help housing rattle, but not stem wobble

[worldly garden]

u should film your switch

[pure sundial]

i just said that wouldn't help

[worldly garden]

is not the same as lubing

[pure sundial]

im aware of that

[pure sundial]

i just said this about film

[worldly garden]

if u ever tried that then

🤷

which gat yellows tho

there are some

[pure sundial]

film is mainly for housing rattle, not stem wobble, stem wobble is mostly caused by the manufacturers having bad tolerances on the stem and not the housing

[pure sundial]

ive mainly Noticed it in the Gat G Pro 3.0s

[charred plank]

Inherently it's not more reliable

Keychron doesn't use any special parts

And they are just as likely to suffer from expected failures, and can suffer from all the same expected failures

But v1 max is extremely overpriced for what it is

[charred plank]

Id say look into inky 75. It's made of CNC aluminum with a glass weight. You could also look into hi75. Hi75 lacks via but it has a remapping software that imo is more beginner friendly and it's stabilizers are probably the most beginner friendly as they're almost perfectly flat stock, but hi75 will be thinner cnc'd aluminum and doesn't have a weight.

[sullen sorrel]

i see thanks

i can say it will be my first atcualy keyboard
and i like either creamy or thocky,hate clacky sound

[charred plank]

Both of those are deeper keyboards

Here is hi75 next to q2 and v1 max all stock except I removed the case foam from the hi75

I don't own inky 75 to demonstrate unfortunately though

But do research into it

I think it'd be better

Ish?

Maybe a bit of leeway if it’s worth the money

[bitter oar]

search for “black matte keycaps” and pick whichever you like ideally something that’s made out of pbt, and your preferred profile

[wintry bough]

Yeah but it has to be shine through as well so the RGB underneath goes through the lettering of the key

[bitter oar]

so doubleshot shinethru pbt

look for double shots that have shine through

unsure about matte though

[wintry bough]

Yeah it seems like a really tricky niche thing to find

[bitter oar]

well, it depends on how much sandy/matte you want the surface of the keycaps to be

[wintry bough]

Yeah true

[formal kelp]

fingertip

budget?

50 dollars

[bitter oar]

hand size?

I mean it’s always hard to tell over a photo 🤷‍♂️

Looks good tho

[bitter oar]

yeah

[bitter oar]

welp, i don’t exactly know for which shape you’re looking for but i’d recommend looking at vxe r1 pro, smaller mchose mouse. or like keychron m4 or such if you’re looking for pure fingertip mouses

[formal kelp]

kay thanks ill check it out

[jade parcel]

g pro wireless for $30 or attack shark x3 for $40

[rapid glacier]

I think i might have to pay more for that cause they said the g274qpx is an equal trade . How much do you think i should pay more if i switch to mag274qrx

[bitter oar]

g274qpx isn't equal tbh

only positive thing about it has higher refresh rate

With color accuracy wise, gamut, pixel response, overshoot it's worse

It's their bottom barrel 240hz ips

[rapid glacier]

I saw the 240 hz and instantly think it's better 💀.

Is the 274qrx an equal trade or do u think it's cut above the 274qrf qd

[bitter oar]

Tell them that the mag274qrx is an equal to the mag274qrf-qd

this is not equal at all

[rapid glacier]

I hope I can make it in time. I was too busy yesterday so i just agreed but they haven't delivered yet so i hope i can change now

[bitter oar]

why did you agree

[rapid glacier]

Cause I did not know there are better msi monitor in the same category and i saw the price of this monitor is close to my old one ( my old one is actually more expensive but it's been out like for 3,4 years I think. so its price must be the same as these new monitors now )

But they haven't delivered so I guess i can still change my mind

[bitter oar]

yes, the monitor market has gotten cheaper and better, but that particular model isn’t all that good even compared to your old one

[bitter oar]

not shipped right?

if they don’t have the qrx then ask for 274qrf-qd e2

[rapid glacier]

So it's should be an equal trade right. But just in case they want me to pay extra because those 2 monitors must be better than my old one right ? So maybe their logic is the most they can do is trading equal for a worse one for me. How much do you think I should pay extra for these 2 monitors if it has to come to this ?

[bitter oar]

The e2 isn't all that much better*

[rapid glacier]

I see let's hope i don't have to pay any extra

It's still better than the g274qpx right. Is response time that important over refresh rate even it's only 3ms

[bitter oar]

It depends but in this case yes

The qrf-qd is better

[rapid glacier]

Is it only in response time , what other aspects are the qrf qd better. The g274qpx from what i saw only really lacking in the response time aspects, other features simply rival the competitors. The g274qpx had significantly better contrast compared to the other 2 too

[bitter oar]

Color accuracy

[rapid glacier]

I saw the qpx color is pretty maxed out too. it could be lacking a few percent behind though but i guess a few downsies already make it look weaker compared to the other 2

[bitter oar]

They're actually neck and neck* mb with stock color accuracy or even the qpx coming ahead a bit

Yes, contrast levels are better on the qpx but unsure about how deep black the display can go under typical brightness at 90-100% window

welp, it’s up to you

[rapid glacier]

But i guessed the qrx still beat both of these right. it has 240hz and actually better response time to compare to the 240 of the qpx but that thing has worse response time even than my current monitor .

Is 60$ a reasonable extra if msi ask me to pay more for

[bitter oar]

That's up to you, i'd personally not pay more than extra $60

$60 sounds ok

sorry i haven’t slept well so

anyways, try asking them for the 274qrf-qd e2 there’s decent chance they have it

[rapid glacier]

I see thank you so much . This gives me more infos to work with them and what is the goal I should settle for with them

The qrf qd e2 kinda sold out everywhere here just to let you know

[lofty tiger]

can anyone help me with sort of rebuild my keyboard, keys with stabilizers arent working properly and i dont know how to fix the issue

[worldly mulch]

ps4 controller or 8bitdo ultimate 2c?

[dawn swan]

just buy an oled problem solved

under 600 dollars now

240hz 1440p 27"

only downside is nonstandard subpixel layout if you put your face 10 inches from the screen and try to look for it

IPS kind of looks like shit in comparison having two side by side

still lightyears ahead of VA panels those are unusable

you can run it without DSC garbage too if you get one with HDMI 2.1 support

for the 240 1440p

can anyone help me with sort of rebuild my keyboard, keys with stabilizers arent working properly and i dont know how to fix the issue

[worldly garden]

Hmm is it hotswap

[chrome raft]

WOOOOOOOO KEYBOARDS

[lofty tiger]

Yeah

I think it’s a problem with the layering, it’s the pcb a foam layer and a metallic top plate, the only sort of fix I’m seeing are to squish the pcb and the metallic plate together

[worldly garden]

replace the switch

if u dont have spare ones, replace it from any buttons that working

[ionic dove]

hi

do you guys mabye know anything about mouses?

[worldly garden]

probably

[lofty tiger]

I tried the switch without the stabilizers and it seems to work fine, even other switches from other parts of the keyboard

Even before I swapped the pcb everything worked fine except for the leds (hence getting a new pcb)

[worldly garden]

yeah try that

maybe the foam was too thick

Hello everyone, really need help deciding the monitor to go for, i cant make up my mind between LG 27GS85Q-b and 27GR83Q-B. Could anyone help me decide?

[livid pawn]

Does anyone have experience with the Logitech G915 X LIGHTSPEED, or its predecessor? The low profile bothers me a bit, but otherwise no manufacturer seems to produce wireless keyboards with macro keys. I used to have a G910, but would now like to switch to wireless. Does anyone know of any alternatives?

[worthy dawn]

what do we think of the acer nitro VG271UM3bmiipx quad hd 27” ips? UK based, looking to play single player and multiplayer games at 1440p, £200 budget looking for best bang for my buck

[urban cedar]

I was looking for a bit of a lighter mouse experience (I have the logitech G502 lightspeed) in order to flick better in csgo, should I focus on getting a better mousepad or a lighter mouse

what should I look for with a mousepad, it feels like the internet is filled with pseudoscience

on my wooden desk the mouse feels faster than on the mousepad

[fiery sail]

200GBP should allow u to get a 1440p miniLED which is an amazing step up in picture quality especially in singleplayer games and when watching movies or videos, without needing more GPU performance, like going up to 4k would.
otherwise u can get very similar monitors for half the price.

if u give me a UK price comparison website and which of the routes u would prefer i can look into it

[fiery sail]

also that specific monitor seems to be terribly priced in the UK, in germany i can get it or under 200€ or 165GBP
even with international shipping that should be cheaper than buyign it directly in the UK xD

2 weeks ago it was 180€ / 150GBP even

[jagged jungle]

i mean i do just use an ltt mouse mat. i think the more important thing is a lighter mouse

you could invest in better skates, like glass ones. but the wood is def gonna erode your skates a lot faster

ive got a viper ultimate but a logitech superlight or whatever is stil gonna be a lot lighter. I came from a 502 myself and lighter mice helps. best thing is practicing on a sensitivity thats natural to you tho :3

[urban cedar]

thanks for the help <3

Gaming VG249QM1A is on a sale rn where I live, worth to get it?
I'm playing comp

on paper it seems really good, worth it?

[fiery sail]

how good is the deal?
240Hz 1080p monitors usually are around the 100USD mark, this one usually is at 200.
if its a 70/80 USD equivalent deal in ur country, that would be quite nice.

also u mean u play competitive games or that u play professionally?
in both cases, what genre?

[lavish python]

I live in Israel, on amazon its 230$ (with shipping and tax)

In Israel: 305$

[fiery sail]

is there a good price comparison website that u could give me?

[lavish python]

this might help, tho I can get it for 1,089 nis and not 1.2k+

https://www.zap.co.il/model.aspx?modelid=1184115

[fiery sail]

any way to change the language on this site?

[lavish python]

sadly I don't think there is a way :/

tho, I was able to find the monitor for 266$ on another store

https://pcmaster.co.il/en/90lm06j0-b02370

[fiery sail]

no worries, i can just image translate takes a few seconds but all good

[lavish python]

good idea 👍🏻

[fiery sail]

with languages that use roman letters u can usually guess where u need to go or click on sth and then see "1ms, 0.5ms" ok im in the response time filter
just a little harder in languages that use other letters 😄

[lavish python]

Hebrew is indeed a weird language

any way I can help?

[fiery sail]

but that website also seems to have very few monitors, they only have 27 1080p 240Hz monitors

i can check which ones are the cheapest where i live and u might be able to check those out.
at least here other basically identical monitors are half the price of this one

[lavish python]

for me it says 24 inch

[lavish python]

I don't really know any of then, anything that you recommend to check out? ;-;
I did notice that sadly most of then are VA

[livid pawn]

Does anyone have experience with the Logitech G915 X LIGHTSPEED, or its predecessor? The low profile bothers me a bit, but otherwise no manufacturer seems to produce wireless keyboards with macro keys. I used to have a G910, but would now like to switch to wireless. Does anyone know of any alternatives?

[fiery sail]

the only downside of VA is the viewing angles, unless u play ur games from next to the monitor, thats not an issue.
otherwise the picture actually look better

also u dont need to know a monitor beforehand, there are plenty of reviews for the deatils, but all of them are fine

just look what is cheapest and a review of it, if its close to 2 or 3 different monitors, look at the reviews of all of them

[lavish python]

not also a bit worse image quality?

[fiery sail]

no its better, VA has better contrast

usually VA has worse reaction times, but there are a lot of great reaction time VAs, look at reviews for those details

[lavish python]

I will check them out, thanks!

[unborn cosmos]

hey everyone! I wasn't sure which chat to put this in, whats the best PCIE wifi adapter money can buy

[fiery sail]

also with reaction time its more like, VAs are more often 2ms+ than IPS anad IPs more often are 1ms or lower.
that doesnt mean a 1ms IPS is faster than a 1ms VA
for those details reviews are important, as those response time measurements are unreliable AF.

doesnt change anything for u tho. look what the cheapest models are and if there are a few within 50 nis it might be worth the slightly higher cost to get slightly better response times, a better picture or if that matters to you, the better viewing angles of IPS.
i would not pay more than 5-10% more just for 1 of those things

@lavish python

Hi, I was wondering about QI wireless, and if it can be used as a 5v USB power point (for devices other than phones)? i.e. QI charging zone hard installed in vehicle, lack of usable power outlets, want to turn QI zone into USB A port for 5v power.

There doesn't seem to be any products on amazon. Though there at least ones that I am unsure about voltage regulation, requested current draw, and the required QI receiver chip.

[keen aspen]

Hello this is a list of what I need someone to find for me as i don’t have a lot of knowledge on stuff like peripherals:

I need a gaming keyboard 30 or less and maybe a bit more if it’s absolutely necessary and good for the money, if u could find info on if it’s quiet or not that would be great.

I need a dirt cheap mouse pad that is actually good and won’t get bad in less than a month, there’s not really a budget on this just don’t show me one with an absolutely ridiculous price tag.

I am from the uk so this will be in british pounds and can only be bought from amazon.

[silent otter]

i bought a new keyboard

[trail kite]

Wooting is the king of keyboard or at least in the top now,
Is there a similar non brand ( non razer; ss, Logitech, etc) mice manufacturer?

[fiery sail]

thats a very good flow chart actually, although ghostign only apllies to low response time VAs, same as for low reponse time IPS
and TNs often arent available at all

[lavish python]

I just need 1080p ips 1ms 240hz, thats all

I live in Israel and the budget is 1k nis 🤷🏻‍♂️

[lavish python]

Thanks 👍🏻🫡

[fiery sail]

as i said u kinda have to look for the exact models urself.
what models are cheap are different fro mcountry to country

[fiery sail]

and either offers in israel are really, really scarse (in my country there are 30+ offers for the same filters as that website had only 2 offers)
or its the website and there are plenty other things around (which would be my guess, even in israel)

[velvet saddle]

I'm considering getting the MSI MPG 321URX, but I'm a bit confused. It's 4K 240hz, but as far as I know doesn't have displayport 2.1. And all the 10ft cables I'm looking at that support 4k 240hz are for displayport 2.1

[boreal rivet]

It’s backwards compatible

[timid pivot]

Hey folks, my V6 Max is doing some pretty heavy double/triple typing on a bunch of most used keys, anyone knows how to fix that ?

[bitter oar]

TN nowadays should not really be purchased

unless you want some $15 monitor

high end TN is not worth it

[flat dock]

the first thing I try for keyboard issues is removing the key cap, cleaning it, and also blowing on the switch a bit, turn keyboard upside down too in case anything might fall out

so far that has worked 3/3 times

[timid pivot]

Oh okay
Thanks, will try that

[fiery sail]

theres always a small niche that needs exactly that, but in that case its not u purchasing it, but rather the esports team u have a contract with that buys those 600HZ TNs

or most likely the arenas u play in, as most gaming homes at most ahve 480HZ

[worldly garden]

Knew it lol

[timid pivot]

????

knew what ?

I googled "double typing mechanical keyboard" and found a dozen different article on that

[worldly garden]

Try simple fix

Like

Replace the switch

[timid pivot]

so stop being a moron pretending to have all knowing abilities and claiming this to be the fault of the brand I bought my kb at and blaming it on me for buying it

what's next, global warming is the fault of keychron ?

I swear to god, the only time I see you type anything is to throw shit at my pick of keyboard

god dammit

[worldly garden]

I gave you the solution ?

[worldly garden]

.

[timid pivot]

after you went "kNeW iT LoL"

jfc

[worldly garden]

Like i never had a keychron before

[boreal rivet]

You should buy a realforce

Never have double clicking again

[bitter oar]

not really sure if they’re better than high refresh rate oleds

[worldly garden]

This

[fiery sail]

good point, i would assume that also depends what the arenas have at that point, as switching fro m480HZ to 600 is easy, but from OLED to LCD might be a bit weird to the eyes

[boreal rivet]

600hz tn is better only from a motion clarity standpoint thanks to backlight strobing

[charred plank]

Doesn't have to be their fault though. Keychrons are just bad value and now you have a good excuse to return it angle get something better

[timid pivot]

for the price I got it at, it was good value tho
can you find better for 80€ ?

[charred plank]

Yes

That's literally the price of a bridge 75

For even less you can get a linky 75

If you need full size leobog hi98

All of which are leagues better

[timid pivot]

the one I have is a 100% kb
I'm not going through the hassle of returning it and getting another one, I'll just try "most common fixes" for the issue I have and get new switches if it really comes down to it

hell, I'll try getting a warranty replacement before changing it

[charred plank]

Sounds like cope

Buys bad product

It's bad

Defends it

Offers to sacrifice more to maintain bad product being bad

[boreal rivet]

just buy a realforce

massive cope issue tbh

[kindred gust]

thoughts on gigabyte m27q rev 2.0? Is there better alternatives in the same budget?

[obsidian pollen]

just got my epomaker aula whatever the hell f99 pro!!! im super happy with it

ive been kinda on and off into keyboards and like, going from my previous keyboard (hyper x alloy origins core tkl) and this is super cool

it sounds and feels great, no more rattly stabilizers and scratchy keys haha

im gonna be getting some different keycaps and maybe down the line some different switches but i am super happy with this rn!!

[shut sierra]

I mean a poorly built or designed keyboard is just a bad buy, whether you want to acknowledge you made a bad purchase or not is up to you. You made that decision to buy that board and now you have to deal with the risks that come with

[shut sierra]

HHKB better 😏 teasing

[flat dock]

how dare you try fixing the switch by free methods before immediately attempting a switch replacement

[shut sierra]

switch replacement is a really good test tho especially on a hot swap board, can help you figure out if the issue is PCB, hotswap pad, switch or other

its a good troubleshooting step to understand the issue better, even if it doesnt solve it

[flat dock]

Yeah as long as you can hot swap on your keyboars

Oh you said that

[timber zinc]

What’s the difference between the K V and Q series keyboard from keykhron

[shut sierra]

Ive never owned any, nor do I know much, but from people ive talked to the general consensus is the Q series is the best, others arent really worth. But even with that said there are better options for those prices

[flat dock]

whats wrong with keychron? I'm looking into maybe getting a tkl with just a basic white backlight and they seemed alright

what else is there in that category?

[wild abyss]

Do yall know of any similar monitor arms to this one that aren't the crazy overpriced ergotrons?
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=C732UD1q1pY&pp=ygUYQW1hem9uYmFzaWNzIG1vbml0b3IgYXJt

I have this but its now discontinued and its a really nice monitor arm. It was a clone of the ergotron lx for like a fraction of the price if I remember right.

[boreal rivet]

You can still get these from taobao

[wild abyss]

What's the listing

[shut sierra]

Nothing wrong persay but there are just better options for the price

any recommendtaiosn?

[shut sierra]

one sec

[shut sierra]

So here's the thing, it kind of depends on how much you care/how much effort you wanna put into getting a keyboard. Here's what I mean: If you want the best value for the money, I would browse and keep an eye out on servers like mechmarket for people selling their old keyboards, usually for pretty good deals. Obviously there are risks with buying second hand products but its the most cost effective method at the cost of time and sometimes not getting exactly what you want.

Now, if you don't really care about keyboards as a hobby, and just want a nice enough board to enjoy and use, and don't care for the enthusiast side of things, there are plenty of budget options, available. If you want a decent breakdown of recent boards that are solid, Hipyo tech (yes I know, shush, the video was decent) recently made a video recapping the "best keyboards of 2024". If you just want a good enough keyboard for the money, and dont wanna build it yourself, and dont wanna deal with second hand, he gave a few good options at the common sizes people usually like (60%, 65%, TKL, 75%, etc.)

Just my 2 cents tho, take it all with a big ol grain of salt

[boreal rivet]

Realforce is better

[flat dock]

Want to get new. Also what do you mean by building

[shut sierra]

HHKB better

😏

[boreal rivet]

Sure

[shut sierra]

i say that like half trolling, never tried a realforce and my first HHKB is on its way in the mail 💀 gotta rep the team tho

[shut sierra]

Well keyboards, at a hobby level, can be purchased in pieces, for example a case, a PCB, switches, keycaps, and be built yourself, thats like one of the main appeals of mechanical keyboards

[boreal rivet]

Evidently

[flat dock]

Is it expensive

I don't mind putting things together but I do if its gonna make it cost more

[shut sierra]

It can be, but not necessarily. But tbh itll probably cost more, the appeal of building it yourself is to have a more premium board, being able to tune it to get the sound you want, the feel you want, etc.

[shut sierra]

Have you tried both RF and HHKB?

[boreal rivet]

Uh huh

[flat dock]

What does hipyo mean by custom keyboards, is that different from building yourself?

[shut sierra]

Thoughts on both?

[shut sierra]

No, custom means build yourself, OR buying an already built keyboard and customizing/modifying it yourself

[boreal rivet]

I prefer the stiffer plate on realforce

Hhkb layout is nice

[shut sierra]

Fair enough, ill have to give it a try eventually. I hope I like Topre, never tried it but ive only heard good things so im hyped

[flat dock]

actually keychron seems pretty expensive

and they aren't even metal

[shut sierra]

yup lol

actually

if you want the experience of building a keyboard yourself, if you wanna try HE (hall effect switches) out for yourself, the TigerLite80 kit is pretty neat (sold on KBDFans). They also have that kit for cheaper, for regular switches (like a normal keyboard), at a pretty solid price

[flat dock]

they all seem pretty expensive

maybe i have a different definition of budget

ill finish the rest of the video in a bit but i was thinking like sub $100 would be what most of them were for a budget compilation

[shut sierra]

what size are you looking for?

[shut sierra]

issue is if you go beyond a certain threshold of budget youre gonna end up with a product with quality that matches that price right? IMO its always worth spending a little bit more for a good product thatll last you long and wont break than spending money on manufactured Ewaste that youll replace like every 2 years

[flat dock]

TKL

[shut sierra]

Nuphy gem 80 seems, decent enough for someone like you who doesnt care too much about keyboards

nvm i lied that shit is way expensive

yea idk I dont know enough about budget keyboards tbh, not really what im interested in so I really dont know too much

[flat dock]

hmmmmm

do you know if all the keychron boards' keycaps would have the light shine through both the number and the symbol you get with shift

thats what my dad doesnt like with this curerent keyboard

dude the navbar on keychron's website is so annoying

its the kind that opens when you hover, and it covers the entire screen

[shut sierra]

I dont think the keycaps are shine-through but that may depend on the model

[flat dock]

idk what the point is of not making them shine through

isnt the point of a backlight to light up the text

[shut sierra]

no

not necessarily

[flat dock]

it is on my laptop 🧌

[shut sierra]

also even with non shine through caps it still makes the legends more visible

it still provides light

[flat dock]

maybe i didnt explain right

the keyboard my dad doesnt like has no lighting on the top half of the key, where the symbols are on the number keys

and he doesnt have the symbols memorized

i kinda dont either

oh i think shine through is unrelated

[shut sierra]

You want them to look like this or no?

[flat dock]

not really

let me send picture

[flat dock]

@shut sierra this is what i was talking about

the & and * and ( arent illuminated

is this a normal thing that iw ould have to look out for?

[shut sierra]

No, if you look in the pic above, most shine through keycaps have the entire legend shine through

But also, slightly unrelated but, for the sake of eyestrain you shouldn’t work on the computer/stare at a screen in à dark room lol

[flat dock]

Its not dark

the backlight is just very bright

[late zinc]

They're not even aligned properly... What garbage did you buy?

[timid pivot]

welp, I don't exactly know how that works but I simply removed cap, switch, blew on both, put back in

looks like that solved the double typing issue somehow

glad to see it was as simple as that

[cold folio]

yeah i have issues like that and it was just bits of food stuck under the keycap

[timid pivot]

I literally had nothing under the caps

the keyboard is pristine

[worldly garden]

Did u try what i said

[timid pivot]

replacing the switches ?

[worldly garden]

Mhm

[timid pivot]

I just removed them, put them back in place

and that fixed it

[worldly garden]

Thats a switch issue then

Lucky you

[shut sierra]

Coulda just been mounted wrong and not making good contact

Hey LTT Community!

I’ve got a discount at the Logitech store and the chance to upgrade my setup. Right now, I’m using a Logitech G Pro and a SteelSeries Arctis 3.

I mostly play shooters, so if you had to choose—would you go for the G Pro Superlight 2 or the G Pro headset? Which one feels like the better upgrade?"

Looking forward to your thoughts!

[boreal rivet]

Superlight2

[charred plank]

Unless it's 98% off or more its not worth tbh

hi, my razer mini just died so looking at a replacement, got my eyes on the razer cobra (seems to just be an updated viper mini), is there anything better in this price range (do not mind going higher if its worth it)? only requirements for me is lightweight and similar shape to the viper / lightspeed ish. thanks

I recently got a attack shark x3 upgrading/sidegrading from deathadder elite after 5 years and the lighter mouse feels so much better now I want to look at getting some faster skates for the mouse but idk which ones I should get for my clothpad I want quite a bit faster but not too much that I cant control it. Any advice on which dot skates I should get?

my clothpad is some noname brand btw

Im assuming glass ones would be good but which in particular or would better ptfe suffice?
