@summer atlas pixio is good tho lol
I donβt think it ships to me
aaah
Yea
rip bc for budget 144hz
well
i would go with aoc or pixio
Ye Ik Ik
before covid they had better prices though
yep
didnt really look at it much
if you can find an aoc monitor at msrp
i would go with that
g24g2
that monitor looks on paper but idk bout irl
You can look at reviews on yt
yea thats true
i tried lookin for some but there is so many differnt sceptre models its hard to find that one
nvm
Reason: Bad word usage
well, dont blame the bot for your typing :P
tragic mistake on me lmao
TN is interesting
tn is the last option i would take tbh
this looks like the model
https://www.sceptre.com/Monitors/LED-Monitor/E255B-1658A-25-LED-Monitor-product1094category12category16.html
The Sceptre E255B-1658A 25" LED monitor provides stellar colors and sharp images on a 25 inch screen.
hardware unboxed has good monitor reviews
Do you know of any good mic desk mount solutions? I'm looking for something like this but that has enough weight to hold an AT2020 without tipping over.
that is a question of spring tension @viral canopy
just look at the rated weight capacity
I currently have it on a desk clamp style scissor arm, but I want a base that's placed on my desk
clamp?
do note if you do that @viral canopy
Something like the one on the image would be perfect but the base itself has very little weight
the base will have to weigh a lot then
you open yourself up to vibration (just like you currently are)
That is tricky, the further you extend it the more likely it is to rip and yes vibration
meaning, you dont really gain much, unless you plan on doing a shock mount?
Yes, I already have a shock mount
ah
Most stable is side clamp or screw into desk
The problem is my new desk is too thick and wouldn't work with one of those desk clamps
that is just a question of the clamp
depending on the arm, you can just change that
yep
I'm considering the Blue Compass which should be able to barely fit my desk, but do you know if it would damage the surface where it clamps?
My current clamp scratched my desk
Maybe underneath the desk but not on top, the part on top of the desk has a rubber guard
that depends on the material of your desk
u can just cover it with a paper towel or something
which is why a lot of people put very thin protective pads on the clamps
or that
paper towel is not enough
i mean something rubber would help aswell
I put an old ID card under the clamp under the desk 
that could work
@viral canopy how thick is your new desk?
No, paper definitely wouldn't work. Should I just cut up some sticky foam and cover the clamp?
Almost 2.5"
@last plinth if you dont know, please dont speak :)
it should work
@viral canopy sticky foam can be bad.
it depends on the specific type and what kind of environment you have
assuming its only sticky on one side
you risk it leaving residue etc etc
The Compass supposedly supports up to 2.5 inch desks, so it will hopefully fit. What type of foam do you recommend? I have a wooden desk with a semi-glossy coating, so it will likely leave residue.
you could use the sticky foam you have, but it would STRONGLY suggest that you check every 2 weeks for the first year of use
maybe not foam if u can
@viral canopy what i would recommend? .. give me a bit to see if i can actually find it. I just have a massive roll of it here
mine is neoprene-ish
think mouse mat, but way thinner
Maybe something like these non-slip furniture pads would work?
aye
that can work
i cannot give you a name on mine, because i think it was something i asked a company i worked with (years ago) to make for me
Oh, I guess I'll just go to the hardware store near me and see what solutions I can find there.
Do you think the Blue Compass is a good choice for a mic arm?
i honestly dont know :)
i can see that it can hold up to 55mm
and about 1kg of load
the reviews seem a bit mixed on it @viral canopy
I already have an arm very similar to that one, if I stay with that style of arm I'll just get a new clamp
I'm considering the Compass since it looks much better IMO
The problem is my new desk is too thick and wouldn't work with one of those desk clamps
@viral canopy this was my old mic setup back when i had the same problem
I see valorant
my desk was too thick so i drilled a bit of 2x4 on my desk
i think?
yeah but i uninstalled and went back to csgo
i was hard stuck diamond 3 and raged uninstalled
My friend was global elite and quit csgo
cuz in ranked he told me ppl would toggle last round
official MM servers have a cheating problem so i just play Faceit
maybe lets move this to a gaming channel
peripherals channel for the cool kids
countertops made clamping stuff a whole lot easier
well i assembled it from different parts from different manufacturers lol
hmm
the tabletop is a butcher block countertop that i got from Lowes
send pic lance
and the frame is sit stand from directiondesk
How much did it cost
350
actually imma just go to ikea
i like it one of the best investments of my setup imo
dont mind the mount gear on the desklmao
my other monitor comes this weekend so i jus have it there sitting
epoxy resin tabletops are cool
this one is 15 grand 
ikea desk gang
this one has burnt look to it
pretty sick
i coated my own tabletop using polyurethane and i think i messed up
the finish on my desk is not exacty smooth
im in the cheap costco desk gang
barely large enough for everything
looking to upgrade to an ikea desk when i move
my desk isnt large either ots 48x24 i think
i wanna get braided cables too for me Sennheisers
mine is 36 by 24
@tacit wing those tabletops are fairly simple to make yourself
very small
if you want to, just have a chat with your local maker space community
really?
i think that cable sold for 200usd apparently
woahhh
oof

no ofc not @tacit wing, but you can get a LONG way. Way easier than you might think :)
is it just buying a 2 by 4 from home depot and sanding it
and then adding your finish
i need a phillps shp 9500 60$ pic now whoever have photoshop plz help me
...
bruh
@sharp kindle IF that is the look you want? yes. If you want something that shows some character? you are going to have to be a bit more creative
this was a summer project that i did
i thought it was a lot harder then that
apparently its not ideal to coat poly in certain temps
and i have some imperfections on my desk
@sharp kindle look into old actual wood counter tops
yes ik π€£
aye, it reacts in a "fun" way Dino
im assuming its cheaper then an ikea countertop
aka it can be a PITA
LMAO
best of luck :)
also something like a local carpenter might be a good place to go and have a chat about discarded/used wood
oops
why there 2 uhh
messed up xd
$
thanks
and also can u shorten it to like mobile kinda look or no
uhh for the u save part
wait why do you need it cholax
make it
kinda sketch
welp
i goota check it thru my mom
and she ain goona want to see
a 90 $ headphone on my cart
so ill show her this pic lmap
bruh
wait itll show up on her credit card tho
i mean
thats a major bruh moment
also try not to lie to ur parents
@normal barn you are setting yourself up for being yelled at. But have fun!
@timber ridge 30.01 for u save and 30 percent for the percentage save
and im buying this on my cousins cc so like
im paying him the real cash
while the thing is on his cc
so like
yeeeeee
yeahhhhhhhh
he has prime
still real sketch my dude
lol
he sees how much u spend dude
yeah
my cousin is on this plan
lance stop encouraging bad behavior lmao
that was a 1 time pass
could you take the "silly" back to #general-chat please.
i manage to narrow down my mouse picks to the rival 600 and viper
ima try to go to a bestbuy in a neigboring city to test em out
i lowkey like the looks of the rival 600 more but i think the viper will be better
cant say until i try both
@timber ridge
two drastically different shapes
Viper is so flat compared to the 600
600 more optimized for Palm and Viper leans towards Fingertip
i have owned both btw 
u palm or claw grip if claw go fro viper if palm for rival
i wouldnt recommend the 600
side grips came off after a few months
i had a quick fix with mine
lance have u tried out the viper shape at your local best buy?
its always best to try them out in person
lol
its corona
covid
i ain gonna go to bestbuy
im very veryyyyyyy stastified wiht my g502
well im talking to lance
im bouta go try them out rn
my bestbuy doesnt have the rival 600 but ill try something similar to get an idea or jus get the viper
502 weighs like a brick for my liking
my bestbuy doesnt have the rival 600 but ill try something similar to get an idea or jus get the viper
@timber ridge the Viper is a much better mouse 100%
although its not for me to say if youll find it comfortable with your grip
also the 600 shape is similar to the mouse u have rn
the 600 is very ergonomic ill give it that
heck why not just get the model o or d
@normal barn both cans are good, but I think the 9500s might be more interesting for you since they're open back
@west hornet also these were the braided cables i was talking about
they're only single-ended but theyre made to order so i wouldn't be surprised if they around the same price of a balanced cable from Hart or Periapt 
this guy in particular makes coiled keyboard cables and made a Sennheiser cable
Cable just so pretty
both mice are nice
@timber ridge apart from the shape, consider other factors such as weight and size
also out of every brand in retail stores rn, Razer is the only one that has stock paracords on their mice
atleast with Best Buy mice
I don't think there's any n stock
also if you find the 903 comfortable youll find the GPW comfortable
although that mouse is plagued with double-clicking issues
dang idk tbh lmao
how do u like the Viper?
I can fingertip grip it correctly lmao
ποΈ π ποΈ
it looks like a viper without the logo
Viper Ult?
the Razer logo on the Viper Ult is only visible when the RGB is on
yes thats Viper
kk
for 23cm Fingertip thats your mouse right there
does the g903 have good wireless latency
yes Lightspeed set the standard for wireless
but everyone else caught up
palm to fingertip
Fingertip of what finger
and Amazon has a super long return window prob gonna order off of there
base of your palm to the very tip of ur middle finger
17 cm length 10cm wide
lance is 23cm which is considered large
the rival is a bit too wide imo
What mouse do u recommend with 17x10
it's not really wider, jus that the viper and g903 fit perfectly
17long x 10wide
it's not really wider, jus that the viper and g903 fit perfectly
@timber ridge i guess its between the two
keep the shape as ur top priority
although if u want the Viper to be wireless like the 903 go for Viper Ultimate
17long x 10wide
@last plinth Viper Mini
ima make u a list for ur hand size @last plinth
Ok
G203
Hati-S
Ultralight 2
Viper Mini
Mira-S
MM711/MM710
Endgame XM1 (very OP for claw)
Model O-/D-
ok imma keep those in mind
but for now me get g pro wireless
If i go down in budget then i get model O
i know for a fact u will not keep those in mind
I will tho
there's no wired version of the g903 huh
nossir
good shape but the battery life on that mouse is not stellar
if you like that shape also consider Basilisk and G502
g502 was a brick
it really is
it's a nice brick
i would get it for casual use but fps not so really
the scroll wheel is useful for getting to the very first message sent of a discord channel

the infinity scroll is super nice for those of us that work with a LOT of text
I think the dark core was heavier tho
Brick
im not too crazy about weight, i dont mind some
i dont like the design of lightweight mice and all the holes
me neither
thats why i like the Viper
no holes, lightweight but no compromises with the rigidity of the mouse
yea
but i always put weight below shape
shape imo is the one i put on top when i look for a mouse
If u get gpw might aswell get the shroud version
not everyone wants his name on their mouse
the marketing behind that collab is so cringe tbh
its the same price
slaps some stickers on a product and make it eXcLuSivE
congrats, you just described 99.9999% of all collabs
WTF
dont get me wrong i love Shroud, i watched him destroy NaVi in Overpass back when he still played csgo professionally
but i dont want any dudes name on my mouse lol
man i narrowed my list then managed to widen it again lmao
dont get me wrong i love Shroud, i watched him destroy NaVi in Overpass back when he still played csgo professionally
@tacit wingpeople who don't watch professional csgo: He wrecked a graphics card?

ok that was a horrible joke
Shroud NVIDIA partner confirmed
you will have to charge the 703 more frequently than the other two wireless mice u listed
oof then ill take that off the list
are they decent while plugged in
if not then im jus gonna get a viper
if you can afford a GPW may i suggest Viper Ultimate
keep in mind the omron switches on the GPW are prone to double-click
im not too crazy about the wireless stuff, jus liek the fit of those two mice
the safest mouse on the list is the Viper
yea tbh
ima jus stick with ik
and keep it between viper and g903
the rival was p bulky in person
wasnt expecting that, it has the same footprint as the g903 tbh
yea it is
also if u decide to go with the Viper i suggest pickin these up https://lethalgaminggear.com/collections/view-all/products/corepad-skatez-razer-viper
PTFE skates make the glide smoother
its optional tho up to you
ill look into that after i get a decent mouse pad
i have a budget mouse pad that came in like a 5 pack lol
they come as standard in the Ultimate and Mini Viper but not the standard Viper
my mini came with white PTFE
If i get gpw is it smart to get hyperglides
is that underglow?
hyperglides are overpriced for wha they are
So no?
is that underglow?
@timber ridge yes only on the Mini unfortunately
I saw some on amazon for like 10$
So no?
@last plinth Tiger Arcs and Corepadz
weird since its the cheapest option
planning on getting superlight
weird since its the cheapest option
@timber ridge well yeah smaller mice are generally more affordable
hopefully it comes out soon
the mini would be way too small for me
if the viper was slightly bigger, i would sill think it fits good
this what it came down to
Honestly for the price of g903 i would get gpw
doenst the gpw have double click problems
well almost the same
yes
not all of them
and i think i measured my hand with a busted ruler bc jus re measured
and u can contact logitech support and they send new one
and got different length lmao
If there is double click problems u can say hi to logitech support
its hard for me to suggest the GPW nowadays bc it is such a hassle
tru
granted Logitech support is great, its nice to have a mouse that will work in the first place
not everyone has the time to RMA
pls keep that in mind
think my hand measurements may be closer to 18ishx10cm
...
i might be able to use a viper mini
but i dont really use a true fingertip grip
so idk
stay away then
ya ima jus stick with what i tested
Endgame XM1
wtf is double shot
you will love the shape of that mouse
keycap wise?
yea
its like two layers idk how to explain really
so inside the keycap there is another layer
its a good thing
does it make it louder or something
dont think itll make it louder, but it might have a different sound profile
@tacit wing the xm1 looks so bland tho ngl
mines like a broken finger tip
bc i dont rest any of my palm on the mouse but jus that one part comes in contact
exactly
the XM1 has a generous hump to support that
bc its the way i position my pinkie, its more relaxed
but if u wanna transition to pure fingertip go with Viper
the XM1 is no ways bland at all
the shape is pretty unique
also the button height is among the lowest on that mouse
ill tell ya what i get
i wouldnt trade off lighter weight for RGB
and its not bland
personally
it jus reminds me of the mice in the computer lab lmao
jus something about the xm1 that screams generic walmart mouse
im sure its amazing
but jus the looks at that price, i would take a viper over it easily
zowie mice would like to have a talk with you

I love my Viper but it aint any better than an XM1 i assure you
best stock paracord on the Xm1 too
actually zowie mice look fine to me
Zowie is the king of shapes
yeah i dont either
everyone clones their EC and FK mice
jus random internalize hate against xm1
its triggering something but idk, jus dont like it
i think Zowie clones are the blandest mice
shape clones or what
G-Wolves Skoll is an EC clone
well you cant deny that most people dont give a frick about if the mouse looks bland or not
thats
the
innovation
and
its
genius
well that and a better cord
and sensor
ofc the lighter weight is some part innovation but the Zowie shape clones isnt
its just boring
thats what i like about the XM1 because it isnt a blueprint from anything else
it makes a lot of sense from a business standpoint
use already established great shapes
and build on that
its similar to the Sensei but its not a complete 1:1 clone
because zowie isn't gonna do what all of these companies do
like the Ducky Feather is another FK/Model O clone
thats what i will consider "bland"
anything ducky is lowkey bland
lmao
ur not
wrong
they do have some cool sets with colorful keycaps
like the frozen llama stuff
dude ppl with one2 minis annoy me so much
from personal experience, everyone i ran into that had it acted like they knew everything about the mech community lmao
lmao
my friend got a one two mini
and then hired someone to put novelkeys creams in them
they get the one 2 mini, bright keycaps then an artisan keycaps

as if the one two mini was overpriced as is
i feel like there could be more done build quality wise
they have nice keycaps
its a perfect $80 board imo
its 80 bucks?
the ducky sf is nice too
yea theyre good
ducky overrated get a leopold
the ppl who get ducky tho
never had a leopold board
yeah
Will the hyper x key caps fit on a Razer keyboard
i think most razer boards have a non standard bottom row @slim hollow
guys
i just got my corsair virtuoso headset and they are way more than i would have expected
they are AMAZING
nice dude
se
nice π
now i need to upgradem y mouse pad
i need a thick one because most the time my wrist is sitting on it and a small one hurts my wrist
QcK heavy
oddly enough the se has a worst mic thanbase
league of legends
bruh
@timber ridge Yea I saw that in the reviews but I went for asthetics
@timber ridge plus i hate my voice so a worse mic aint a problem with me lol
i think a sh!tty mic is a funny meme
if ur just playing league i can reccomend a qck
who do u main in league
fizz mid
should i get a new mousepad
but nice mics sound nice
and dino and smerth, im also looking one that is very wide
i have big mouse pad
my clear mic + rtx voice compression = 
like that one
which mouse is that
when i got my mic i found my voice a bit more tolerable, probably because old one sound like i swallow it
@placid junco do you care much for designs?
mines from InkedGaming and its an image that i uploaded
,
thye have sizes the same as the extended one u have
u can upload any image u want but it has to be a certain resolution and ppi for it to look good
it has a similar glide to the GSR-SE
if u just want a simple one just get a QcK extended
theyre fairly thick
ok imma check em out
that mouse pad is huge
yup
o dude this looks perfect
i wanna upgrade my mouse pad but ive done enough upgrading
gotta keep some money for the other stuff iw ant
i dont think y should worry much about mouse pads unless you play FPS games low sens and do large flicks
im not looking for anything crazy, mine jus feels a bit scratchy
im worried about my dang wrist sitting on it all day
dunno if the mouse or pad tho
Guwop get the QcK heavy but its sold out lol
their regular pads arent gonna be thick enough
its the only qck mousepad that popped up
not prism version
oo not bad
only 3mm weak
yup not as thick as they heavys
what did u do to him lmao
hm speaking of which lemme check my mousepad tracking no
id almsot do that full desk pad
but
it has rounded corners
and my desk has pointed corners
Yoo that 5x lookin shmexy
its huge
i would get a pad that size but its the pain in the butt to clean
man i cant decide what to get and its irritating me
id go with the abstract one ||the one with the girl best one ez||, novelkeys might still have some nice ones in stock
Does this look good
Interested in the cuz the cable management thing
im fine with anything Ikea but their Linnmon tabletops
before i put this order in
the gpw has bad switches right
like double click issues
apparent the double click issue is known to logitech
and their rma service is garbo
as much as i like the g903, ima get the viper
my G203 is fine
the viper is known for double click issues too
oshoot not viper i ment g903
the viper is fine, gg typo
but yea, the g903 has a similar issue with double clicks
yup, its more of Omron's fault than Logitech
they have a new GPW coming out and i hope the switches are different
itd be nice if Logitech made their own switches in house
isnt it supposed to be lighter?
Viper switch feel weird, but it works
Viper switch feel weird, but it works
@west hornet its really mushy isnt it
its not the same as the Omrons on my 203
I would try to get 3600mhz ram, maybe even 3600cl18 would do better with ryzen, nzxt doesnβt have great airflow, psu seems expensive but I have looked at them recently nor can give much detailed info on them. You can also get a windows key from eBay or something for 5-10usd and put more into the gpu. But I donβt do too much with builds and I believe #building-and-recc-chat is where those go
I canβt really say Dino lol, especially when I first got I guess you can say very colicky but kind of plasticy?
crucial ballistix 3600 cl16 rgb is $90 and non rgb is like 75
^3600cl16 preferred but if not possible cl18 fine
I still use viper everyday and got used to it, I bad at describing things lol, the click of my g602 was more subtle Iβd say while viper feel aggressive
Huh didnβt see this before
Planar iems by tin
why b450
there's much cheaper b550s
is compatible
tomahawk is overrated
also he shouldn't get windows 10 pro at full price
agreed
look on ebay
and unless ur planning to play cod cold war
you dont need a 5 terabyte hard drive
I would say scrap the 5tb hdd, get a cheaper mobo, non rgb ram, and then get a better gpu
the 1660 is good
but for the budget you can get way better
try getting a 2060
^^
Well it's not for me per say
I am gonna nab that 5Tb for myself
It's a budget basic PC
@tacit wing oof if the viper switches are weird, do you think i should go with the g903 then
ima p much let u decide 4me lmao
@tacit wing oof if the viper switches are weird, do you think i should go with the g903 then
@timber ridge it is not means a deal breaker lol
i wouldnt say weird for me its not what you call tactile
if u get g903 just spend an extra 10 and get gpw
If u get one with double click issues
contact logitech support and sell the one with double click problems for 50$

bruh
no one wants to go through that hassle cntrl
Well the chances of u getting one with double click problems is low
its pretty clear its between the viper and the 903 let the man decide
ok
but yeah u should let the buttons be factor in your decision @timber ridge
o ok
i mean u felt them urself in store
yea
Also for the viper
my gf said she likes the g903 but the price
the 903 is more feature packed
thats true
infinite scroll wheel, more buttons etc
but why
Viper is a more bare-bones lightweight mouse which is more for me
I got the viper because it had a better sensor which I needed, and it was lighter without the honeycomb design that gives me anxiety
im a simple man
for what reason would u need infinite scroll wheel and extra buttons
@last plinth pls consider not everyone is like u
@west hornet
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
Word too big for me
some people might find those features useful
XD
trypophobia
no im saying why would u need infinite scroll wheel and extra buttons
No point of extra buttons unless ur playing wow
Maybe more of fear of dirt and dust, or dust getting into holes 
its not for u to decide what peoples needs are
i use side buttons in league
yea then get g903
but 2 side buttons are p much all i need
then get viper!
im pretty sure he wouldnt consider the 903 as an option if there wasnt a reason cntrl
Why do u want g903
the fit
reasonable
its the same reason why i like the viper
dont really care much about rgb n stuff or wireless
i think it fits slightly better, if it was 100 i would of bought it already
my only advice for you is that Shape is king
its the most important aspect for me when i look for a mouse
What about it doesnt fit
huh
like what makes it not fit
they both fit good, jus one is slightly more natural, but not enough to sway me
ima jus coinflip it
brb
pauseChamp
General
if i remember correctly only mods can stream
Maybe
ima do the gif thingy
Ok
bruh it insta flipped when i googled it
should i count that flip or redo i while screen recording
g903 is noice
ok that one insta did it too lmao but ill record this time
both yall the most indecive individuals in this server ong
We just dont wanna waste money
lmao yeah
does it matter if ur doing a coin flip lmao
dino spewing facts
@tacit wing they are not
not by a long shot
plenty of people here that cannot decide to put out a fire even if it is burning them
im rather indecisive when it comes to life choices but not... materialistic things 
im vice versa
u have no idea how much headphones and mice me and cntrl went through
have u tossed a coin yet?
sees another
yea
and then gets distracted
DUDE tell me about it
at least ur not my friend
i buy stuff thats cheap and works lol
they look like doritos
@sharp kindle only because you mainly hang out here :)
thers someone else, cholax i think
we helped him pick headphones
and after debating between two i was like go with this one
the people you are talking about are only recent examples
then says ok, now how does it compare to this one
its fun having a discussion with cntrl but i get frustrated sometimes due to his indecisiveness

there are a couple that have been waffling around on part selection for all the time i have been on this server
i wanna say what an alienware prebuilt looks like but imma get banned
naed, remember the guy in general chat who was wondering if his build would be future proof for the next 3 years
and would not want to build it if it wasnt
lmao we cant predict the future
thats what we told him
omegalul
Lance have u flipped the coin yet
ya
requests like that go in one ear and out the other before i even notice it @timber ridge
Worrying Winston
good call bc i dont think you can go wrong with either one
i see way too many of that "type" in my actual working life
oof
and yea, i couldnt go wrong with either
if i could, it would make picking one a lot easier
now that i think of it, i honestly could of gone with a g903 and viper mini in the future
but its w/e
i can prob get the mini considering the phone ruler app was off by like 5 cm
