[queen sigil]

[crystal escarp]

Can someone find me a cool set of blue keycaps

They don’t have to be straight blue

[tacit wing]

HOPPED UP OUTTA BEEEEED, TURNED MY SWAAAAG ONNNN

[tacit wing]

[tacit wing]

i may have a preference of cold and treble peaking cans rather than warm ones...

[brisk parcel]

😂

Either way they good cans I like them

I really do

They’re a good contrast to the sennheiser

[tacit wing]

these things are treble cannons

its sooo cold

i wonder how these compare to the bright highs of 990 pros

Soundstage and the airyness is the star of the show in these cans

i was expecting a crap ton of sibilance but i dont hear any

my M40x's has more sibilance believe it or not

a few complaints tho; this stock cable needs TO GO

and also was expecting better QC for 220 usd

[timber ridge]

welp

epic times

[tacit wing]

i ❤️ headphones

[sharp kindle]

[queen sigil]

[timber ridge]

[queen sigil]

https://gyazo.com/5d7e17687fa08c83ea020ac99b2b4544

[timber ridge]

but it is an option

[queen sigil]

very helpful

epomaker has decent looking keyboards

idk how good the quality is

[timber ridge]

most of their prebuilts are plastic

i wanna go with a alu case

[queen sigil]

ek

[timber ridge]

too bad the kbd67 isnt in stock anymore

or even an option

[brisk parcel]

Wait @tacit wing QC?

What does that stand for?

[tacit wing]

it stands for quality control but i think i shouldve said built-quality because thats the better term

[brisk parcel]

Ohhhh

I mean honestly I do think the quality is pretty solid

They are pretty light but I still think they’re pretty solid

Maybe a heavier headband could’ve helped with that

[tacit wing]

it looks lighter than it looks from pictures

[brisk parcel]

Yeah

But honestly it’s not bad

I’ll have to do my review in a few days or so

[normal barn]

oh lol

u guys makign me want to skip

the pc38x

and just get he 5xx

🤣

[tacit wing]

get whats best for you

not for us

[brisk parcel]

Once again I would still hold off a lil bit and wait for people to compare them to the deva more

[timber ridge]

the melody65 looks eh

[brisk parcel]

Like Dino said he doesn’t hear sibilance at al but I can definitely tell

[timber ridge]

think ima jus wait for th gmmk pro

[brisk parcel]

On some songs

[tacit wing]

keep in mind, you have your own needs and what you look for in a pair of headphones @normal barn

what i like you may not like

[brisk parcel]

Not all of them but my ears are more sensitive because of my horrible vision

Alright imma eat dinner 😋

[tacit wing]

one thing to note is we have different amps @brisk parcel

[normal barn]

lol

hades is good

[queen sigil]

isnt the melody 65 like 270$ @timber ridge

[timber ridge]

240

nvm 60

not a fan of how the top part looks like

[placid junco]

@pseudo path Ask here, dino or someone will help you.

[pseudo path]

anyone know any good amps for dt990 pro, but affordable??

[tacit wing]

anyone know any good amps for dt990 pro, but affordable??
@pseudo path atom amp, magni 3+ or heresy

affordable as in around 100 usd

[pseudo path]

yeah

thank you

[tacit wing]

👍

[pseudo path]

will it be able to power and provide good sound quality?

[tacit wing]

yes you cant go wrong with any of them

also put the liquid spark on the list

also if you want a dac+amp unit with a balanced output, look into the iFi Zen Dac

but its 130 usd tho

[pseudo path]

yeah ive looked at that might get, but i dont need balanced dt990pro dont have im sure

[tacit wing]

oh alright, then yeah the other amps i listed are solid choices

[pseudo path]

ok thanks!'

also is there any difference between 1/4 inch and 3.5mm aux?

[tacit wing]

no difference

[pseudo path]

ok ty

thoughts on creative soundblaster omni 5.1 amp

[tacit wing]

i have no experience with SoundBlaster amps but @brisk parcel has one i think

[pseudo path]

ok

well thanks for the help

[tacit wing]

no problem

[brisk parcel]

@pseudo path yo-yo

So

I have their G6, the external “gaming” DAC/AMP, it’s pretty good and the surround feature actually worked really well on my cloud 2s and has a sweet spot on the 5XX that makes them seem wider and more surround at the same time so that’s nice

As for the Omni amp I have no clue I’ve never tried it

You could always test it out and see how you like it

Can always return it

[pseudo path]

Okay, what would you recommend for the dt990pro?

G6?

Id like dac/amp btw

[tacit wing]

if you need a DAC as well, youre gonna need a stack @pseudo path

or a 2 in 1

[pseudo path]

yeah a 2 in 1

[tacit wing]

iFi Zen Dac or K5 Pro

[pseudo path]

ok thank you all

ill look into them

[brisk parcel]

The G6 is good and rated for 600 ohms so

I’m not sure what the optimal wattage per channel is of the G6 but I’ve never had much of an issue

Tbh I would pick a beefier amp cause I know that the DTs love their power

[queen sigil]

im thinking about getting a split spacebar keyboard

hmmmm

[tight pulsar]

meh

[queen sigil]

yeah its kinda growing on me

but it might just be a 40% since I don't own one

[tight pulsar]

have fun

[queen sigil]

and maybe with like retro keycaps

cant wait to never actually get it

also are stabs fine without teflon grease

I only got dielectric

[eternal beacon]

are wireless mouse “bad”

[tight pulsar]

why would u use teflon in the first place just use dielectric+205g0 or just 205g0 like i do

[queen sigil]

are wireless mouse “bad”
@eternal beacon no

why would u use teflon in the first place just use dielectric+205g0 or just 205g0 like i do
@tight pulsar ok will do

[tacit wing]

are wireless mouse “bad”
@eternal beacon nice meme

[eternal beacon]

not a meme

dont they have like a delay or summin that makes them have a disadvantage over wired?

[amber oracle]

no

not really

[west hornet]

wireless mice have actually gotten quite good lately, good ones have equal or maybe sometimes better latency than wired

[amber oracle]

you can dial a wired down to be slower on response than a wireless

[queen sigil]

unless you're using a bluetooth mouse

[amber oracle]

so once again, devil is in the details

[last plinth]

@sharp kindle do u have gpw

[sharp kindle]

no

why?

if you want to get it i wont stop it

its an ok mouse

still think you should get something lighter

and shouldn't care so much abt wireless

@last plinth ^^

[finite prawn]

Hey can someone confirm if this monitor I found is worth it?

[queen sigil]

#old-monitors-and-tv

[cold ridge]

Idk where to ask this but im tryna figure out what gaming/desk chair to get

Im comparing like secretlab models , coolermaster, corsair etc..

For under 400 what would u guys recommend

Maybe 450 and under tbh

[tacit wing]

dont they have like a delay or summin that makes them have a disadvantage over wired?
@eternal beacon if the year is like 2010, this statement would be true

[eternal beacon]

so wireless is still good

[tacit wing]

read what Naed said

[timber ridge]

how long does it take to ship stuff from kbd

[tight pulsar]

3 weeks give or take a week for normal shipping or like 3 days with dhl express

[timber ridge]

thx

gonna try those cap switches, jus needa decide what keycaps to go with now

[amber oracle]

@timber ridge there is only one true answer

ALL OF THEM!

[timber ridge]

all artisan keycaps build

[sharp kindle]

@cold ridge find a good ergonomic office chair

a refurbished or used herman miller should be good

[queen sigil]

herman miller

10000 dollarsr

[amber oracle]

@cold ridge none of the "normal" gaming chairs are worth a damn.

refurb office chair is imo the best way to go about it

[tacit wing]

if i had 400 dollar budget id get Autonomous ErgoChair

also mesh chairs = no swamp ass GUARANTEED

[queen sigil]

not sweating = no swamp ass

[foggy crescent]

agree with naed

idk what refurb is but office chair is best chair

except if you are into racing simulators

then gaming chairs might provide

[amber oracle]

refurb= cleaned/repaired product that was returned for X reason to the manufacturer

[foggy crescent]

ooo

thought it was something else lel

[amber oracle]

IF you know someone that works in a big office, ask them if their company sells of their old stuff

there should be a FAIR deal of those things around right now

[tacit wing]

i have a bunch of surplus office supply stores in my area

[west elm]

K

[sharp kindle]

its a good budget mic

from what ive heard

[timber ridge]

i have a fifine mic

works better than most gamer headsets

[sharp kindle]

no duh

headset mics (at least most of them)

are bad

[tacit wing]

headset mics have a comedic appeal to them

e.g. Souljaboy streams

[queen sigil]

tyler 1 mic

[sharp kindle]

lmaooo

even though i could care less about audio

soulja boys mic is horrible

[tacit wing]

yeah but its what makes the stream funny

[sharp kindle]

well that and the fact that hes soulja boy

imagine cardi b

yelling into a headset mic

[tight pulsar]

okay so my switch opener is finally here and then i found a pen spring and now i have a clicky ink black with a bottom out of like 1.6lbs

[sharp kindle]

wtf

are you high?

or just

drunk

[tight pulsar]

no im tired

[timber ridge]

cardi b mics would need to stay on mute

[sharp kindle]

we will still probably hear her

[queen sigil]

I have a tyler 1 headset

[timber ridge]

honestly

[queen sigil]

it broke in like a year

[sharp kindle]

cardi b annoying af

[timber ridge]

i hav a gamer headset with the mic detached

[sharp kindle]

she just look loud

[queen sigil]

no im tired
@tight pulsar HI TIRED IM LEO

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHHAH

im leaving

[sharp kindle]

OMEGALUL

KEKW

PepeLaugh

[tight pulsar]

also i put a paperback copy of fahrenheit 451 on the switch and it didnt go down at all

[sharp kindle]

wow

ok

[timber ridge]

debating if i should lube switches for my first build

[tight pulsar]

yeah

[queen sigil]

you should fill the switches with dust

instead of lube

makes it feel terrible

[sharp kindle]

lube

def

[tight pulsar]

also i broke a switch and now it doesnt have a leaf and it has like .5mm of travel and doesnt work

[cold ridge]

@tacit wing @sharp kindle @amber oracle I ended up copping an ergochair 2

[sharp kindle]

unless you have a clicky

[queen sigil]

@tight pulsar huh?

[sharp kindle]

in which

i will disown you

[queen sigil]

you broke the leaf off?

[tacit wing]

u made the right ergonomic choice @cold ridge

[tight pulsar]

yeah

[amber oracle]

clap clap

[timber ridge]

ooo

[tacit wing]

your back will thank you in the long run

[sharp kindle]

gj @cold ridge

[amber oracle]

well done Nachos

[timber ridge]

i wanted an ergo chair but it was a bit out of budget

[tight pulsar]

i bent it and tried to fix it kinda and now its out so yeah

[sharp kindle]

now ur back wont die

[timber ridge]

got a hyken mesh instead

[tight pulsar]

but it was a silent tactile so idrc

[queen sigil]

This was a cherry blue

[amber oracle]

@cold ridge IF you can stop smiling when you sit in it for the first time, you are free to yell at me

[tight pulsar]

lol look at it this is far as it goes up

[queen sigil]

[sharp kindle]

wtf

dont worry i fyours is short and stubby

we are all created equal

it just depends on hip movement

ok

bye

[cold ridge]

@amber oracle I've been using a padded folding chair for like 7 months so ur probably right

[queen sigil]

lol look at it this is far as it goes up
@tight pulsar DIY speed switch

[tight pulsar]

oh wait that was my silent brown not by boba so it basically didnt matter cause that thing wasnt tactile at all

[amber oracle]

@cold ridgewhen you get it, take your time to adjust it etc

[tight pulsar]

yeah i wish it worked cause it would be cool

[amber oracle]

@cold ridge their manual is fairly good iirc (been a while since i have seen one)

[timber ridge]

naed do you have an ergo chair ?

[amber oracle]

when is the ETA on it @cold ridge?

[cold ridge]

@amber oracle 5-6 days shipping

[amber oracle]

@timber ridge at workstations? yes

so, with a bit of luck, before next weekend

[cold ridge]

@sharp kindle looks kinky uwu

[sharp kindle]

lmao

[amber oracle]

but for a lot of the custom setups i have done for people, the Ergochair 2 and similar models are very popular

[sharp kindle]

but ngl that looks horrible

[amber oracle]

does that answer it for you @timber ridge ?

[timber ridge]

yep

[queen sigil]

my switches are in mississippi but my keyboard kit is already in my state

BUT

[queen sigil]

wtf

[timber ridge]

oof

leo have you tried sa profile keys ?

[tacit wing]

Hifiman's cables are terrible

[queen sigil]

yes

they thock

[cold ridge]

@sharp kindle the majority of my money is in my pc and monitor

[timber ridge]

ive heard ppl complain about sa profile

saying it strains their wrist or some and its bad for gaming

[tight pulsar]

yeah it sucks for anything other than looking nice get kat or mt3

[timber ridge]

ill look for a kit

[queen sigil]

yeah

it just sound good and looks good

[timber ridge]

think my max budget is 100,so most mt3 kits are out of budget

[queen sigil]

I have a set but never use them

is like

[timber ridge]

is oem jus as bad

[tight pulsar]

mt3 should be around there

[queen sigil]

Oem isnt bad to type on

[timber ridge]

might jus end up with xda

[tight pulsar]

oem is a slightly different cherry profile cause rgb sucks

[queen sigil]

xda is

meg

meh

XDA is flat

[tight pulsar]

also dont get cherry profile if ur pcb is north facing

[queen sigil]

nachos have u tried choc switches

[tight pulsar]

no

[queen sigil]

I wonder how they're like

[tight pulsar]

i dont care for low profile boards

[queen sigil]

like i know they aint good

but I wanna know how bad it is

[timber ridge]

kbd np profile looks like xda

[last plinth]

What is high profile

Whats difference between low and high profile

Is it just raised higher

[tight pulsar]

for a keyboard?

[queen sigil]

i love when there is no context

[last plinth]

Keyboard

For keyboard

[tight pulsar]

low profile means u can see the switch sides

ignore the text

[queen sigil]

low profile keycaps

[last plinth]

What what

what what what

[tight pulsar]

mhm yeah ignore the keycaps too

[last plinth]

Im talking about like

Drop alt low and high profile

[tight pulsar]

yeah

[queen sigil]

thats what we're talking about too

smart boy

[last plinth]

Wait fr

low keycaps

[queen sigil]

oh my god

no

he said ignore the keycaps

low and high profile is based on the case

[timber ridge]

ironic

[tacit wing]

Whats difference between low and high profile
@last plinth one is high one is low

different altitudes

[tight pulsar]

hi profile

low profile

[timber ridge]

he said ignore the keycaps, then he ignores the whole msg

[queen sigil]

MIND EXPLOSION

WOW POGGERSR

[tight pulsar]

p much lance

[last plinth]

i see

[thick plank]

Hifiman's cables are terrible
@tacit wing tbh I never had as much of an issue with them as most people do

They are unique but i wouldn't call their tube cables bad

[sharp kindle]

cntrl so are you gettting the gmmk pro

or drop alt

or you can just get a generic keeb

[tacit wing]

they kink and retain their shape

but its a stock cable its a silly thing to nitpick over

[last plinth]

It depends

Drop alt for now

[vivid canyon]

Guys! Got any cool suggestions for Studio Monitors? Looking for the mid budget range... Thanks!

[tacit wing]

nah studio monitors arent displays

[sharp kindle]

oh whoop

ok

[tacit wing]

theyre speakers @sharp kindle

[sharp kindle]

i knew that

[last plinth]

lolz

[sharp kindle]

im dum

exqueeze me

about that

[tacit wing]

@vivid canyon Rokits?

[vivid canyon]

Speakers are still peripherals ey?

[sharp kindle]

ill leave the reccomendations to the audiophiles here lmao

sorry lmao

[last plinth]

You think gmmk pro is gonna

have custom built

[sharp kindle]

i thought u were talking like monitor monitors

like i thought a studio monitor

[tacit wing]

or Yamaha HS8's

[sharp kindle]

was a display

@last plinth custom build whats?

[last plinth]

Or prebuilt options i mean

[vivid canyon]

@dino 💤thanks man... Kinda aiming for the 8"

[sharp kindle]

@last plinth well its gonna be like the drop alt

[tacit wing]

i had a pair of Rokits that died to a power surge

[sharp kindle]

where

you can customize ur switches

i think

not sure though

[last plinth]

Drop alt with no wheel

knob = better

[sharp kindle]

because its advertised towards the custom keyboard community

i think it will only be barebones

but glorious sells switches too

[last plinth]

[sharp kindle]

and there will be a pbt keycaps kit

[tight pulsar]

mhm theres a single use for a knob and u can just do it with a layer anyway

[sharp kindle]

as glorious said in the reddit ama

[queen sigil]

its how swap

[sharp kindle]

yep

[queen sigil]

hot seap

swap

[sharp kindle]

lmao

[last plinth]

Yes

[sharp kindle]

glorious said they will have a pbt keycap upgrade

[last plinth]

for tfue's keeb soundtest

with some decent keycaps

there can be just as much clack

not click

but clack

clack > click

[tacit wing]

[sharp kindle]

[tight pulsar]

[last plinth]

Are they lubed

[sharp kindle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6gW18XE6EM

there

that is

pure heaven

it has the thocc you want

but the spacebar clacks

thats good

at least for me

ofc ur not gonna achieve that with a drop alt

or a gmmk pro

[tight pulsar]

also ur never gonna get a keyboard to sound like that

[last plinth]

Drop alt scammaz

[sharp kindle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpTB0yIRn6A

this is a bit more accurate

still much better sounding than clickies imo

ok im pissed cause hes not touch typing

[thick plank]

Lubricados

Sounds like a lovesense toy

[sharp kindle]

lmao

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spEnuZRR_ak

[queen sigil]

yeh

[sharp kindle]

hkgaming?

[warm scroll]

So I just got the ducky one 2 mini and was messing around with the lighting and have somehow made the keyboard stop typing

[queen sigil]

ducky one two mini

[warm scroll]

The keys work fine, like I can change the color/preset I just cant actually type

[queen sigil]

[lyric hinge]

Ahahaha

[queen sigil]

that sounds like a software issue

[warm scroll]

Wait what's wrong with the keyboard

[queen sigil]

Nothing

[warm scroll]

Shouldi get a different one

[queen sigil]

just check if there's a keybind or something

that disables it

or maybe a computer issue

[warm scroll]

I think I hit a keybind messing around just wondering if anyone knew what it was

[queen sigil]

Does the ducky use a detachable USB c caable

[timber ridge]

i hope so

[queen sigil]

@warm scroll try ctrl+lshift+capslock

or fn+alt+ctrl

[warm scroll]

Yes it uses a usb c

And those didnt work sadly

[queen sigil]

try using a different computer and a different cable

[warm scroll]

Well the keys work, like I can change the profiles and stuff

And my mouse has number buttons on it and those will show up

[queen sigil]

try holding win+space

it resets ur profile

[warm scroll]

No luck

[queen sigil]

I mean im assuming its some firmware or software or whatever issue

not really many things I can think of that completely kills a keyboard

[sharp kindle]

holy crap wtf

[queen sigil]

You should be able to get that replaced with warrenty

[warm scroll]

Hmm well thanks for the help I'll try to look online and find something. If not, I guess I'll just have to return it

[sharp kindle]

wait so there is still lighting and stuff

so you didnt just

destroy your board?

its just it doesnt register keypresses?

[warm scroll]

No all the buttons still work

[sharp kindle]

like if you press n it wont type out n

[queen sigil]

so you can still change ur lighting

[warm scroll]

Like if I go into profile editor and change the color of n, it will change

But I cant type n

[sharp kindle]

i mean u cant type anything

ok

wack

[queen sigil]

@warm scroll Did you rule out the pissibility that it was the cord or your rcomputer

[warm scroll]

If it was the cord then the keyboard wouldnt turn on right?

[queen sigil]

just try it

[sharp kindle]

congrats

ive never heard of this issue

lmao

this is groundbreaking research

[warm scroll]

Ok well I feel very stupid, but unplugging it and plugging it back in fixed it

[sharp kindle]

bruh

[queen sigil]

Good job

[sharp kindle]

-_-

[queen sigil]

you've very smart

[warm scroll]

Like the first thing I should have done

[sharp kindle]

yeah lmao

this is a big bruh moment

[warm scroll]

Well sorry for wasting your time, but thank you for offering it

[sharp kindle]

-______________-

nah

its just

why wouldnt you unplug and re plug it in first?

[warm scroll]

idk im just not smart

[tacit wing]

bruh moment

[timber ridge]

/mini

/ducky keyboards in general

[spark kelp]

which keyboard would you say is the best TKL keyboard which has media keys and is bellow 110

I like the sound of red switch (don't mind if its kahl or cherry)

[feral pulsar]

Stupid question what's a desk called that has a tower stand? Like a desk that holds my PC instead of putting it on the desk?

[cunning hearth]

Pc desk?

[amber oracle]

you mean a U hanger for the case @feral pulsar ?

[feral pulsar]

Yeah @amber oracle

[amber oracle]

a lot of office supply stores have those

they are also sometimes known as "L-brackets for Pc cases"

the main thing to keep in mind thou. they rely on the material of your desk being able to hold the weight (when focused in the screws holding the bracket)

[feral pulsar]

I see

I just need a desk should I move into an apartment that has carpet

[amber oracle]

@brisk parcel give a shout when awake

[hearty schooner]

[west hornet]

that one always give me chills haha

[amber oracle]

distinct hans zimmer vibe to that one @west hornet

the start reminds me of the Pirates of caribian OST

[west hornet]

ye it honestly reminds me of a lot of songs put together haha. even my mom felt that xD

[amber oracle]

specifically "Hoist The Colours"

[west hornet]

ahh yes you're right

[amber oracle]

yes, its spruced up

but the structure is VERY close

[west hornet]

overall feel and vocals very similar style

[brisk parcel]

alrighty

I'm home naed

[amber oracle]

oki doki

[west hornet]

i loved that part of the movie also

[amber oracle]

you need to settle in or @brisk parcel ?

[amber oracle]

[brisk parcel]

okee dokee

[tacit wing]

good morning gamers

[queen sigil]

goo poger

[last plinth]

hi

Im still not sure what switches i should get

[queen sigil]

does it matter

its not like you're going to be getting a keyboard any time soon

[eternal beacon]

can i change the keycaps on a gmnk keyboard to white

[queen sigil]

you can change the keycacps on any mech keyboard

[eternal beacon]

ok

[queen sigil]

unless you got some weird one like romer0-G

[eternal beacon]

does it matter which keycaps

[queen sigil]

idk if you can change romerG keycaps

no it doesnt

[eternal beacon]

whats a pudding

[timber ridge]

woah whats the new color

[queen sigil]

keycaps with a built in diffuser thing

they're meant for people whith an addiction to rgb

[eternal beacon]

so i can just order some off of amazon and i should be fine when i order my keyboard

[queen sigil]

kinda yucky

[eternal beacon]

ill just take it to a shop and theyll do it?

[queen sigil]

GMMks use really standarrd layouts so

lol what

do just tale off the keys yourself

[eternal beacon]

to get the new keycaps

[queen sigil]

why would you take it to a shop

[eternal beacon]

but dont i need a special tool?

[queen sigil]

lol no

[timber ridge]

you buy a kit

then swap them yourself

[queen sigil]

mot keycap kits come with a puller

and you can also just take them off by hand

[eternal beacon]

puller

ok

Seiorca 104 PBT Keycaps Double-Shot Backlit Keycap Set for Mechanical Keyboard with Key Puller (White) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07C2WKN4D/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fabc_olfQFbBC33G2F

so that little black thing is a puller for the key caps

[queen sigil]

GMMK used to have a white option

was that a limited time thing

bro GMMKs literally have a white option

[eternal beacon]

so i dont need the extra keycaps and they come with them when you order

[queen sigil]

^

Why are you buying keycaps seperately

[eternal beacon]

so i can change them to white

i didnt know they had a white option

[timber ridge]

you can change the keycaps to whatever color you want

[queen sigil]

if u got the money

kek

[timber ridge]

i think keychron has a custom keycaps thing for p cheap

[queen sigil]

no

also id recommend the TKL

because detachable cable is niceto have

but its the same price s the fulls size

[eternal beacon]

what about the compact one

[queen sigil]

I mean of you wanna pay 110$ for a 60% go ahead

I wouldn'nt but you can

[eternal beacon]

ok

[timber ridge]

i dont think its worth spending over 100 on a prebuilt 60%

imo

[last plinth]

I was thinking kalih silent pinks or something for switxhes

[tacit wing]

is that the choice for today

[timber ridge]

silent is cursed

[queen sigil]

I mean you can think all you want but It doesn't matter if you aren't actually gonna buy it

[timber ridge]

im waiting til i decide what keycaps i want before i order my switches

bc if i get something from kbd i can jus get all my stuff in one package

[queen sigil]

keycaps off of kbdfans

10 bagillion dollars

[timber ridge]

the cheapest gmk set is on drop

the red set, forgot name

[queen sigil]

is it ugly

[timber ridge]

https://drop.com/buy/drop-redsuns-gmk-red-samurai-keycap-set

gmk caps sound p good imo

[sharp kindle]

not my cup of tea

[timber ridge]

its a bit eh

its not bad but could be better

[sharp kindle]

i think if the shade of red was a bit brighter it would be a lot better

just a bit

like not as dark

the gold accents are nice though

if your looking for non gmk

@last plinth check those out when ur getting keycaps

[timber ridge]

didnt link correctly

[sharp kindle]

wait what

frick

https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_list&c=40

that should be correct

[timber ridge]

gg

that website link op

[sharp kindle]

but yeah

they have some decent sets

[timber ridge]

rn, keycaps are hte last thing i need

ik what board and switches i want

[sharp kindle]

yeah that was for cntrl

cause he wanted keycaps yesterday

[queen sigil]

cntrl aing buyin anything

its like the audio stuff

[tacit wing]

cntrl needs to make his own decision at this point, we've given him enough consumer advice

[true jewel]

I’m not totally satisfied with gaming ping and home coverage of the NETGEAR Nighthawk AC2600 Smart WiFi Router (R7450). What other net gear WiFi router would you recommend?

[queen sigil]

ethernet

[sharp kindle]

yes

or fiber

[last plinth]

Fiber not available near me

[sharp kindle]

not you

@true jewel

[last plinth]

I wish it was

[queen sigil]

nobody asked you

[last plinth]

D:

[cold ridge]

Get ethernet cable

Yes

Or / and Verizon fiber

[west hornet]

it might notbe the router, there are so many factors. it could be that you are too far from the router, signal is not getting through, settings on pc or router, could be an isp problem. also depends on what you think bad ping is

[true jewel]

I have fiber, and game on Ethernet.

[queen sigil]

u have 3 ping

too much

[west hornet]

what ping are you getting

[last plinth]

My wifi plan is 950up and 30down

I pay 150 a month

Scammaz

[sharp kindle]

bruh

[timber ridge]

might depend on the game too

[last plinth]

Its cox

dont get cox gigablast

[queen sigil]

ur 13

[sharp kindle]

bruiser, it could be ur distance from the servers itself

exactly

lmao

[queen sigil]

you dont need godly intermet

[sharp kindle]

chill

[true jewel]

80ms to a Dallas game server

[last plinth]

just telling him to not get cox

[queen sigil]

that means nothing

[sharp kindle]

well what area are you in

[queen sigil]

thats like sating I get 1 ping in korea

[west hornet]

that doesnt sound right, ive never heard of a residential network that has higher upload than download by that much lol

[true jewel]

Colorado

[queen sigil]

but im not telling you where i live

[sharp kindle]

i mean bruiser

like west coast, east coast

something like that

[west hornet]

80 ping doesnt sound too aweful as long as it is consistent.

[sharp kindle]

i play cs with 75 ping consistently

its not bad

ofc sometimes i will want to huck my monitor

[queen sigil]

unless youre a professional

[west hornet]

ping is more dependant on location by servers

[queen sigil]

just practicing your reaction time is better

[true jewel]

Ok

[west hornet]

if the ping seems very unstable than it may be a problem, but as i said it could be game, isp, pc, etc

[tacit wing]

this why pro players move closer to dedicated servers

living expenses paid by the org themselves

[timber ridge]

moving to a gamer house

[hearty schooner]

Is there one of these that I can mount into a 5.25 bay?

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017MVUAHM/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=demo01b-20&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B017MVUAHM&linkId=b9911eb72aa00a402b0a01d451297a82

[timber ridge]

if the dimensions are right, probably

[hearty schooner]

Would it have screw holes though

[lilac echo]

does anyone know how the hyperx pulsefire haste compares to like a model o or a gwolves mouse

[timber ridge]

youll probably have to do some diy to mount it

puslefire looks better for claw imo

the hump looks higher on the back

[hearty schooner]

@Naed could u give me some help when u get time

[tacit wing]

does anyone know how the hyperx pulsefire haste compares to like a model o or a gwolves mouse
@lilac echo FK/Model O clone

[lilac echo]

so it's basically the same

oh long time no see, dino

[tacit wing]

the Haste, judging from reviews has a stellar paracord

comparable to the XM1

[lilac echo]

that seems to be in my favor

i'm tryna get my brother to buy me a mouse and he has a thing for hyperx so if the pulsefire haste is good, then it's a win

[tacit wing]

one of the best mice to release this year it seems like

did u ever get your desk? @lilac echo

[lilac echo]

i asked my brother to take a look at it and order it but also our refrigerator broke so it's really not a priority

i didn't get a definite answer as to whether or not if he ordered it but he said he looked at it

[queen sigil]

whats a pulsefire haste

[lilac echo]

the new hyperx honeycomb mouse

[tacit wing]

whats impressive is they manage a 59g weight for that size of a mouse
