[zealous silo]

do u guys know any good switches that can fit on the gmmk plz @ me if u do

[queen sigil]

step one dont buy a gmmk

[zealous silo]

why not

[queen sigil]

the PCB doesn't support 5 pin switches

[zealous silo]

oh well do u know any good hotswap keyboards then

[queen sigil]

what price and formfactor

[zealous silo]

that doesnt break the bank

around $100 and 60% maybe TKL

[queen sigil]

congratulations go buy a keychron

[zealous silo]

which one

[queen sigil]

literally any that is hotswap

[zealous silo]

ok thx

[queen sigil]

and a modern varient so it comes with prelubed and clipped stabs

[zealous silo]

does the k 8 or k6 have that

[queen sigil]

does either say it's hot swap

[zealous silo]

i picked the hotswappable version

[queen sigil]

cool

then it's probs hotswap

[zealous silo]

ok

[timber ridge]

that was easy

[zealous silo]

wait so can a k6 have a cherry red

[queen sigil]

it supports any 5 pin switch

as long as its like the standard cherry style switch

and not autemu

[zealous silo]

ok

whats the main difference between the K2 V2 and the K6

[queen sigil]

idk

[tacit wing]

what hyper x headset is good
@elder current only the clouds are good. quote on quote "good"

you sure are asking for alot with a 60 dollar budget

[zealous silo]

is the gk61 any good

[cunning hearth]

yes

[zealous silo]

ok

[elder current]

@deep marsh oof

[zealous silo]

might just build one my self actually

[elder current]

@deep marsh so any cloud hyper x set

[tacit wing]

@elder current you are pinging the wrong person

i wouldnt spend money on any hyperx headset tbh but if you point a gun to my head then id say go for Clouds

Cloud Alphas or Twos

[elder current]

38 dollars

dino is it cloud alphas twos

[tacit wing]

read the last thing i said

[elder current]

:/

ok

[timber ridge]

@zealous silo dont get a v1 keychron

[queen sigil]

whats the v1 keychron

[timber ridge]

besides updated bluetooth

if you think the v2 is a thicc/high keeb

the v1 has no angle

[queen sigil]

yo its flat

so

its flat

[timber ridge]

it NEEDS a wrsit wrest

[queen sigil]

but tbh an aluminum RGB hotswap keyboard is a goo price

for r100$ off keychron

[timber ridge]

yea its great for the price

but i f i remember correctly the aluminum version is kinda wonky

like its not a full aluminum case, its jus bumpers screwed on to it

[queen sigil]

id expect for that price to be like to be barbones

yeah

but still aluminum make sif feel more prermium

[timber ridge]

still nice they give you the option tho

[queen sigil]

and it's only 10$

[timber ridge]

yup

[queen sigil]

why do they have low profile optical switches

was low profile not enough

[zinc thistle]

hey

https://www.amazon.com/JOTO-Management-Computer-Entertainment-Organizer/dp/B086V5NQBW/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=sleeves+for+computer+cables&qid=1605640498&sr=8-4

[queen sigil]

they need low profile optical

[zinc thistle]

does anyone know if this ever goes on sale?

sorry if i'm intterupting

[timber ridge]

i wouldnt know tbh

[queen sigil]

it recently got a 1$ price drop

but I wouldn't buy that

Do you really need 8?

and also for r25$ thats really expensive

[zinc thistle]

which would u rec instead @queen sigil

[queen sigil]

literally any cheap one

I don't see what would make a difference between a cheap and expensive cable sleeve

[zinc thistle]

also do you know where I can buy a switch opener?

[queen sigil]

literally any website

[sharp kindle]

holy crap ducky and hyperx are collabing again

no god no

[stark girder]

should i get a Madcatz mouse?

[queen sigil]

or you could just use a flathead screrwdriver

[sharp kindle]

no

[stark girder]

rn i have a G502 hero

[sharp kindle]

dont get a madcatz mouse

[stark girder]

but it has double click protection which i no like

[sharp kindle]

if you have to get something from madcatz get the glide mosuepad

[queen sigil]

@timber ridge keychron sells gat yellows for 30c/switch

4$ for 12

[stark girder]

ye i have the mousepad

[timber ridge]

keychron p op

[queen sigil]

if you're ordering from keychron maybe ordering switches at the same time isn't too bad of an idea

[stark girder]

i want the mad catz mojo m1, whenever the hell they release it

[timber ridge]

i didnt go with a keychron bc the height

and i had wrist problems b4

with keebs '

[stark girder]

honestly i need a mouse around the size of the G502

beacuse big hands

[timber ridge]

whats ur grip type

[stark girder]

wdym?

[queen sigil]

bruh

[sharp kindle]

hwo do you grip ur mouse

[timber ridge]

how do you hold your mouse, claw, fingertip or full palm

[stark girder]

ohhhhh

full palm

[sharp kindle]

prolly palm cause u use the g502

ok

[timber ridge]

theres some other types but those r the main

is the basilisk similar to the g502

and some corsair options

[tacit wing]

yes its the direct competitor

[zinc thistle]

wait @queen sigil how many switches would I need for a TKL

[tacit wing]

not a clone but a competitor

[queen sigil]

87

[zinc thistle]

and are those a really good price what are they on other websites?

[sharp kindle]

what is a good price?

[timber ridge]

th g502 lightspeed is 50 off rn

[queen sigil]

huh

[zinc thistle]

https://www.banggood.com/70PCS-Pack-3Pin-Gateron-Linear-Yellow-Switch-Keyboard-Switch-for-Mechanical-Gaming-Keyboard-p-1426530.html?rmmds=buy&cur_warehouse=CN

compared to this these switches

[sharp kindle]

those are only 70 pieces

[timber ridge]

find some with 10 pc per set

[queen sigil]

first off

[sharp kindle]

its like 21 bucks on novelkeys

for 90 switches

[queen sigil]

thats a 3 pin switch set

gross

second banggood usually takes ages to arrive

and usually packages get dammaged

[sharp kindle]

https://kbdfans.com/collections/gateron-swithes/products/gateron-swtich-3pin-or-5pin?variant=35765200397

[timber ridge]

kbd has 20 dollar shipping

thats like more than half the cost of swiches alone

[queen sigil]

kbd has 20 dollar shipping
@timber ridge

[sharp kindle]

oh wait

frick

[queen sigil]

thats like more than half the cost of swiches alone
@timber ridge

[zinc thistle]

so would the keychron or Novelkeys between those two for yellow gats?

[sharp kindle]

novelkeyys has gat yellows

for like 21 bucks

for 90

[queen sigil]

wait so ur just ordering switches

[zinc thistle]

yes

[queen sigil]

for what keyboard

[zinc thistle]

well I want to build my first keyboard thats why

GMMK

[timber ridge]

honestly, you may be able to find some on amazon

[queen sigil]

EW

[zinc thistle]

not good?

[queen sigil]

so he needs 3 pin switches

disgusting

[zinc thistle]

what about keychron?

[queen sigil]

keycrhon uses 5 pin switches

[zinc thistle]

k2

[queen sigil]

if youre planning to get a keyboard

dont get a tmmk

gmmk

[sharp kindle]

3 pin is ok but 5 pin is a lot better

get a razer keyboard

very good

lots rgb

great stabs

[queen sigil]

yea

[sharp kindle]

zero case ping

[queen sigil]

razer best

[sharp kindle]

amazing

[queen sigil]

0 case flex

[sharp kindle]

/s

[zinc thistle]

i'm good

[queen sigil]

listen to the case

no flex

[timber ridge]

my temp keeb comes in tomorrow

will tell you guys how stabs r

[queen sigil]

what keyboard

[timber ridge]

hades 68

[zinc thistle]

https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-k2-hot-swappable-wireless-mechanical-keyboard

[timber ridge]

a reviewer said it had better stabs than the k2 i think

[zinc thistle]

what baout this?

[queen sigil]

I literally just awnswered what you said

[timber ridge]

ooo

if you want a thinner version of that, ik eppomaker has a hotswap version of that

same layout

[zinc thistle]

in terms of quality

[queen sigil]

the K2 is hot swap

bidoof

[timber ridge]

worded that weird

but jus a thinner version w/o bt

[zealous silo]

are there any 60% hotswap keyboards that arent the GMMK

[timber ridge]

gk61

and its like half the price

[zealous silo]

oh ye forgot about that one

[queen sigil]

@timber ridge does the durgod come with ABD keycaps

[zealous silo]

am i able to get it naked cuz i dont really want gateron opticals

[queen sigil]

abs

last time I checked optical switches arent switchable with normal switches

[timber ridge]

pbt

and yea, there is barebone kits

[zealous silo]

well do yall know any 5 pin keyboards that are at least TkL

maybe even 60%

[timber ridge]

budget ?

[zealous silo]

at least $100 but im not going to get the drop alt or ctrl

[sharp kindle]

dont

[timber ridge]

id80

if you want a full built

portico is a good deal

[zealous silo]

i want a prebuilt

[timber ridge]

its 250 but the keycaps alone are 150

andit comes with everything

only downside is the color scheme isnt for everyone

[zealous silo]

honestly might just get keycron k2 v2

and get different keycap set

wait is the gmmk 5 pin

[queen sigil]

oh my god

[tacit wing]

[zealous silo]

yes ik but i orgot

[queen sigil]

you want an awnswer or the quick awnswer

[timber ridge]

isnt the gmmk pro 5 pin

[zealous silo]

answer

the long one

[queen sigil]

scroll up

@timber ridge well gmmk pro bad

[stark girder]

depending on the price of the madcatz mojo m1, il probably get both the mojo and the basilisk, because yes

[zealous silo]

k

[stark girder]

if its expensive then no Mojo M1 for me

at or around release ofc

[zealous silo]

oh ok

[timber ridge]

the m1 looks hideous but cool idea

considering most mouse with that shape is super heavy

[zealous silo]

does the k6 at least support 5 pin

or any of their lineup

[queen sigil]

im going to stab myself

[timber ridge]

youre not obligated to help him

[zealous silo]

im very sorry im just trying to multitask and its hard

[queen sigil]

try to do a tiny bit of researrch

[timber ridge]

it supports either 3 or 5 pin

[queen sigil]

before you buy something that you have no clue what it is

[zealous silo]

i just did some research people say it supports both so i might get that instead and get a keycap set for it

[timber ridge]

are you not swapping switches?

[zealous silo]

i will

[scarlet parrot]

Another person wants the keychron too?

[queen sigil]

no he wanted a gmm

k

and then I told him that sucks

[stark crater]

this is my current keyboard

It has kahil brown switches is what i was told by the friend i bought it off of, as he changed the switches to take the RGB better

this is what it looks like now

i want to change the extra keys to the right into some cool looking keys and change my spacebar to look sick

how would i go about doing that

[queen sigil]

that is a go od lokig key board

I don't know if your image got mirrored but if you're talking about the macro keys on the left

[stark crater]

Yes these macro keys on the left

[queen sigil]

Also I have no clue what the layout of your keyboard is so I can't recommend you a keyboard

or keycaps

[stark crater]

I haven’t figured out how to use them so might as well make them eye candy

Wdym

[zealous silo]

is that hyperx pudding keycaps

[queen sigil]

sicne you have a "gAmInG kEyBoaRd" the bottom row is usually unorthodox

[stark crater]

Ah

Yeah I had a razer death stalker for 6 years before this so I’m clueless

[queen sigil]

whaaaaa

thats

likre

so old

[stark crater]

Yep just last week got a new keyboard and mouse

Been rocking original deathadder and a death stalker

And when I was younger I was a hot head and they served me well

[queen sigil]

I wouldn't of recommended an alienware keyboard

but I guess that's too late

[stark crater]

Yeah I got it 30$ off a buddy

[queen sigil]

Just remove the keycaps on the bottem row and send a picture of it

[stark crater]

With these new key caps

Is it safe to just pluck them off!

?*

[queen sigil]

Did he not give you a keycap puller

[neon quartz]

Graison#2062 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

Graison#2062 has been kicked

Reason: Too many infractions

[queen sigil]

Sick!

@timber ridge

[stark crater]

Lmfao

I said s word

He basically had a key cap remover and lube and stuff but he didn’t end up giving me it bc I told him I didn’t need it XD

[queen sigil]

You could use a flathead screwdriver probs

Might dammage the case and switches

but probs nothing

like

dangerous

[stark crater]

yea i think ill ask him

https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/product-support/product/alienware-pro-gaming-keyboard-aw768/docs

i believe this is the site documentation

is there an easy way to see what you want?

[queen sigil]

Yeah looking at that keyboard

you do not have the corrrect size keycaps for your bottom row

[stark crater]

what does that mean

[queen sigil]

It means the keys like your left alt and cntrl

they are not meant for your keyboard

they are the wrong size

[stark crater]

ah

doesnt seem like an issue though

they seem to work like normal just... leave a bit of room between eachother

whic his quite nice as i type very quickly and its a plus

[queen sigil]

Wait so you're just looking for macro key rerplacements?

You are'nt replacing all keycaps

just the macro keys

[stark crater]

nah just the macro keys

and maybe the space bar

i just love the color purple and want to get some cool looking designed keycaps

[queen sigil]

You aren't going to be able to replace either of those with keycaps that really fit in

[stark crater]

you don't reckon?

how do keycaps work? are they like sizes?

[queen sigil]

The spacebar isnt the standarrd size

and you can't really but special looking dedicated macro keys

that are the same form factor

For macro keys the only thing I think you could get is get novelties with like DSA or XDA fortmfactor

[west hornet]

so sad the sound quality is quite good for 50usd, but the capsule picks up so much vibrations https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJQLRzDZ3mo

[stark crater]

i picked uo this JLAB talk go for like 40$

its an insane value

atleast compared to the mic on my corsair void pro elite wireless thing

[queen sigil]

the first model is the one you have

the second one is the standarrd layout for a fullsize

wait

thats wrong

it has from left to right

whatever so what i'm saying is

that spacebar is probs not gonna get replaced with anything that looks nice

same with macro keys unless you're willing to spend a bunch of money on a full set of DSA/XDA keycaps with novelties

[stark crater]

you're speaking japanese to me

[tacit wing]

[stark girder]

can anybody reccomend a good 1440p 120hz curved monitor?

looking to spend 300 dollars max

[idle cairn]

does anyone have the g903 and have an issue where hold clicking acts weird?

[queen sigil]

LOGITECH MOMENT

[high fulcrum]

Hmm

[timber ridge]

what happened leo

[queen sigil]

huh

[timber ridge]

@timber ridge :KEK:

[tacit wing]

does anyone have the g903 and have an issue where hold clicking acts weird?
@idle cairn switch issues are prominent with the Omron 20m's in Logitechs

more prominent in the GPW than other mice

whether you have a good unit or not is a shot in the dark

my G203 has no issues

[idle cairn]

If I have had this thing for like 3 years is it worth getting from a different brand or a new mouse?

[tacit wing]

if you want a SUREFIRE way to not have this issue again

i suggest staying away from Omron

look for a mouse with Kailh or Huano switches

or Optomechanical like what Razer, Roccat and Endgame Gear has

otherwise, getting another Logitech is fine but dont be surprised if the same issues come up again

[brisk parcel]

resetting my PC in an hour and 15 mins boys

5 years of memories...

[tacit wing]

for what reason]

[brisk parcel]

new stuff, new mobo, new PSU, new CPU, new AIO

basically a brand new brain

[tacit wing]

nice

[brisk parcel]

i know but the memories 🥺

[tacit wing]

i have 2TB of storage and i have nothing personal in it lol

well actually i really dont have anything tbh

started my FLAC collection tho

[timber ridge]

i have a 1tb hdd full of shadow replay clips

and some random downloads

[daring zenith]

Nice

[tacit wing]

lol

still not enough storage for a Call of Duty update

[timber ridge]

man

im gonna needa invest in a 1440p monitor soon

to justify these gpu purchases

[tacit wing]

if i didnt play csgo

i would have a 2k panel

[stark crater]

idk my 5700xt is still kinda weird at 1080p

some games it overheats

[tacit wing]

[timber ridge]

im slowly easing my way into more games on pc

i was planning on getting everything on the ps5, but gave up on that

so ima jus start buying games for pc

[sharp kindle]

ps5

tbh i would probably use a console if i didnt love tac shooters

[rose creek]

I’m looking for a keyboard with speed silvers

Any recommendations?

[sharp kindle]

speed switches are honestly a scam

the lower actuation point doesnt make you better lmfao

[rose creek]

I know

But they smooth and quiet

[sharp kindle]

then why do you want speed silvers

most linears are smooth and relatively quiet

[rose creek]

I like them

They’re nice

[sharp kindle]

if you want a quiet switch get a silent switch

[rose creek]

And I’ve got blues and they got annoying real fast

Like real fast

[sharp kindle]

well linears are nowhere near as loud

[rose creek]

Fair point

[sharp kindle]

gateron yellows are great for a budget

[timber ridge]

considering he wants speed silvers, yellows might be too heavy for his liking

[sharp kindle]

he used blues though

yellows are a bit more heavy than mx blues

wait nvm

ok

nvm

[brisk parcel]

no yellows are like buttery smooth

what are you talkin about lmao

bro espeically lubed switches

[queen sigil]

uhhhh

yellows I wouldnt say are buttery

[timber ridge]

anyone know the difference between ev 01 vs ev 02 switches

[queen sigil]

I lubed

a silent red

and its pretty quiet

[timber ridge]

i mean

if you put enough lube on any switch itll become silent

[queen sigil]

gat silents have the pad things on the end

that help make it not loud

and I don't have to use 20kg of 205g0

[timber ridge]

are jtk kits good?

[queen sigil]

idk

[tacit wing]

[timber ridge]

ima do a eva them build for my second build

[tacit wing]

im bout to ACT UP

[timber ridge]

no mice purchases from me

all my money going to keeb now lol

[tacit wing]

i smell 🧢

[timber ridge]

if they price it at 100

which i doubt

ill consider it

[tacit wing]

if they dont price compete with the MOW, id still reckon they will sell

[queen sigil]

GPW getting an even worse scroll wheel

[tacit wing]

then again 63 grams, no holes plus wireless is unheard of

[queen sigil]

if its anything like my g305 itll berak in about 3 years

[tacit wing]

it has no direct competitor

[tight pulsar]

@timber ridge jtk is nice

[timber ridge]

i was gonna get a jtk kit

but i jus found a kat kit

[queen sigil]

bro

have u ordered anything

[timber ridge]

thatll work perfectly with my theme

[queen sigil]

i swear

[timber ridge]

huh

[tacit wing]

GPW getting an even worse scroll wheel
@queen sigil no

[timber ridge]

bruh

[tacit wing]

the only prominent issue of the GPW is the double clicking issues

[timber ridge]

been getting cholax vibes from u lately

[queen sigil]

GPW be looking like a mag bike wheel

[tacit wing]

if it was a solid wheel it would weigh more

whats not clicking

[queen sigil]

an supposedly that's for a "gas bike"

[tacit wing]

Logitech cuts down on weight where it matters, not just pUt HoLeS oN mOuSe

[queen sigil]

i mean

imagine if u put holes in it

urself

0g mouse

YO WHAT IF

[tacit wing]

[queen sigil]

WE PUT SO MANY HOLES IN THE CASE

IT WEIGHS 0G

[timber ridge]

should i do text or icon mod

[queen sigil]

yo instead of ANSI i should get an ISO board

[sharp kindle]

hes getting iso?

[west hornet]

I don’t like holey mice

[high fulcrum]

O

[queen sigil]

guys

we should get people

to buy razer keyboards

[west hornet]

I already have one

[tacit wing]

I don’t like holey mice
@west hornet me neither

its just lazy engineering lol

[queen sigil]

I dont care about mice

as long as it works

and doesnt make my fingers hurt

[west hornet]

I get nervous about dust and dirt

[queen sigil]

i've used alot of mice in the past

but the pulsefire dart is the most comfortable mouse

but its super heavy and expensive

[tacit wing]

the G403 clone lol

[queen sigil]

but I didn't pay for it

It has like

actual

padding

like not just rubber

[midnight shuttle]

The Logitech G Pro Wireless Superlight might be released/announced tomorrow. Looks interesting

[queen sigil]

yes

[midnight shuttle]

Oops didn’t see the picture above

[sharp kindle]

very interesting

holey mice were nice when finalmouse first had them

and then glorious made one

but now that everyone is making holy mice

its bland and boring

im still gonna buy a mouse if its good, regardless of if it has holes or not

[tacit wing]

holey mice are good

but the market is so overly saturated with them

FinalMouse dropped the Air58 and everyone and their mama ate that mf up

[foggy palm]

working on a sleeper build. Anyone know of a good brand that makes oldschool looking keyboards? Those big beige ones.

[tacit wing]

IBM

[queen sigil]

shutup dino

and also "sleeper keyboards" dont exist

[foggy palm]

lol the case I'm using for the sleeper is IBM

[timber ridge]

ajazz

[queen sigil]

last time I checked there are no IBM case clones that take cherry style switches

and i doubt epomaker has an old lookin keyboard

there are lots of retry style keycaps for different price ranges

[foggy palm]

Okay cool. Yeah doesnt have to be anything fancy. As long as it is mechanical, responds well and looks legit I'm good.

[queen sigil]

and the EPOmaker one uses SA keycaps

so thats a no

also what's ur budget

and do you have experience soldering/ do you have access to a soldering iron

[timber ridge]

epomaker uses xda

[queen sigil]

the ajazz whatever

[foggy palm]

nah, couldnt throw it together myself. Just thought there might be a brand out there that i didnt know of that made old school looking boards.

[queen sigil]

So are you looking for an old keyboard clone

Because you said "sleeper" which usually means it has good internals

and i wouldn't consider buckling spring switches to be good

[foggy palm]

Kind of. I'm honestly open to ideas. Yeah the rig is a sleeper. 1990's IBM case with all new 1440p gear inside. Have to mod the back a tiny bit for an exhaust fan, but otherwise unmodified

[queen sigil]

So are you going for an old keyboard

or a modern keyboard with retro looks

[foggy palm]

Could do either. Like I said I'm open to ideas and thought you all in chat might have a good idea of where to start 🙂

[queen sigil]

and what's your budget

[foggy palm]

Dont really have one lol just willing to get something that fits the look.

Like this..

https://www.amazon.com/Ajazz-AK510-Mechanical-Gaming-Keyboard/dp/B07QYRS1WC?th=1

Thanks for the Ajazz suggestion

But if you know of something better let me know

[queen sigil]

then get an original like say 2000+ cherry keyboard

I think they still make retro unique designs for their keyboards @foggy palm

like the g80 11900

[foggy palm]

You def know your stuff, cheers for all this help. Rigs I know, keyboards not so much 😛

[timber ridge]

np for the help 🙂

[queen sigil]

np for the help 🙂
@timber ridge LANCE U SAID 4 WRODS SHUSH

[west hornet]

Just buy authentic ibm keyboard

[queen sigil]

no

buckling spring is like

gross

[foggy palm]

@timber ridge they were 4 great words <3
@queen sigil again thank you though.
@west hornet yeah, for a laugh i'm going to look into what would have been purchased in addition to the IBM computer during the time of it's launch and see if I can grab one.

Just for a laugh that is. Not wanting to game with a old keyboard like that.

[timber ridge]

i said ajazz

and bam

ez pz

you could of settled with a g502

[queen sigil]

whats an mx master 3

is that a mouse

[timber ridge]

yup

basically a g502 lightspeed

but fancy

instead of gamer

[last plinth]

Should i get buckling spring switches

[timber ridge]

do want a switch with it

arent vertical mice more ergonomic

[sharp kindle]

well yes but no

[timber ridge]

is it complicated

[sharp kindle]

in theory they are

but some people dont like em

because its not comfy and it doesnt feel relaxed

[timber ridge]

o gg

[sharp kindle]

at thats what ive seen

[timber ridge]

im debating if my second keeb build should be unit 01 theme or have night sakura caps

[sharp kindle]

dino has been typing forever

i must be wrong

ono

[tacit wing]

vertical mice are for people who find having their wrist turned vertically, more comfortable

lol

naw

[sharp kindle]

i personally wouldnt get the mx vertical

[tacit wing]

[timber ridge]

yep

and yikes, they didnt even try to compete with mow

[tacit wing]

either Razer or Glorious has to make a move

drop a Viper Mini Ultimate or a MOW Minus to make this thing run for its money

[timber ridge]

yea

imagine viper mini ultimate for 80

[tacit wing]

yeah considering how budget the V Mini is for 40 bucks

that price is easy to imagine

[timber ridge]

im bouta make some big keeb purchases

still might get a huntsman mini or a hk venus

[timber ridge]

[timber ridge]

001

dino thats fr how my packages r

[small nimbus]

anyone know a good mmo mouse?

[elder current]

i might get the steelseries artics 5 headphones

is it a good one to get

[stark girder]

a chair would be considered a peripherial correct?

[elder current]

i think

well peripheral i think could be anything

[stark girder]

i need a new chair because this standard wooden one is giving me back pain

[small nimbus]

go to secret labs 👍

[stark girder]

Whos that?

[elder current]

whats your budget

[stark girder]

like 150 max

[small nimbus]

its a whale chair

nvm dont go to secret labs

[stark girder]

refurbished/used is ok

[elder current]

https://www.amazon.com/GTPOFFICE-Computer-Reclining-Adjustable-Headrest/dp/B07SRXTQ8M/ref=asc_df_B07SRXTQ8M/?tag=bingshoppinga-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=&hvpos=&hvnetw=o&hvrand=&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=e&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=&hvtargid=pla-4584482459623672&psc=1

this one?

and can someone tell me if the steelseries artics 5 headphones are good

is that one good

is the chair good

[stark girder]

seems good, leatherette

[elder current]

is the steelseries artics 5 headphones good

[small nimbus]

idk i use bose

[elder current]

they have mics

?

[small nimbus]

yea but it's not good for gaming

its meant for like phone calls, i've got a separate mic for my pc

what do the reviews say about your headphones though

[hardy lantern]

i use iems

[elder current]

it says its like discord certified

[small nimbus]

🤔

[hardy lantern]

i havent used steelseries headphones

razer krakens on the other hand

[small nimbus]

discord certified what the

[elder current]

yea i havent heard that

[hardy lantern]

personally i like the krakens because its booming

[small nimbus]

oh i might buy a kraken unless oyu say its bad

[elder current]

what krakens do you reccomend

[small nimbus]

i'm tired of using a separate mic ;;

[hardy lantern]

but as of recent ive been using my razer hammerhead pro v2 and a pair of iems

[small nimbus]

the uwu kraken or no kraken at all

[elder current]

send me a link to the headphones you reccomend

[hardy lantern]

the kraken x is the latest one

[elder current]

ok

the usb one?

[hardy lantern]

https://versus.com/en/razer-kraken-x-vs-steelseries-arctis-5

try looking at that comparison

[small nimbus]

the frequency range seems unnecessary

on the kraken x

[hardy lantern]

most people say that the kraken x is better than the ss arctis 5

[elder current]

dude the artics 5 says it won the comparison

[hardy lantern]

freq doesnt matter

plus its better to base off what others say when it comes to experience with products

[elder current]

so which one do you reccomend

i need one with the noise cancellation

any other razer one you reccomend that has microphone noise cancellation

[west hornet]

i wouldnt buy any krakens for more than 5usd to be worth it

a ksc75 for 15usd or koss porta pros for <40usd would easily beat them, the blackshark might be decent i haven’t seen much on them. and sadly i dont know much on the steelseries

[elder current]

which headphones that have a noise canceling mic are good idk which one would be good

[normal barn]

@tacit wing wait

is that the 2020/2021 new g pro

oh shoot

i might have bought my g502 too earlyyyyyyyyyyyy

will there be a new g502?

shoot

too less buttons for me

the old gpw is kinda better

since 2 side button on both sides

[rose plume]

Speaking of G502. Im rocking a g700s and looking to upgrade this BF. Would a G502 or a G604 be a better to go to? (Note the reason Im conflicted is I use all 4 side buttons on the G700 in most games, so a 502 feels like I would be missing buttons, and a 604 from what I see is a quality downgrade). Ive cleaned/taken apart my G700 and so its still going strong but its going on 6 years now, so I expect it to go soon.

[magic jacinth]

Hey the buttons for power and menu options look like that under my monitor is that right or are there supposed to be caps

[west hornet]

depends if that specific monitor is supposed to, but those are normal basic button mechanisms. i wouldnt be surprised if it didnt come with a cap on top

[fierce breach]

I need good speakers I'd like 4.1 setup but the two back speakers wireless. Is that possible?

[queen sigil]

KARINA GB ENDS TOMMOROW

[wanton wagon]

not sure if this goes here? so i just installed an ethernet cable and the connection is way better with downloading and stuff(as shown by picture) but for some reason in games, or more specifically, overwatch, the ping is like 300

specifically on NA servers, I am in the EU but with wifi I got 120 ping and now I get 300 with ethernet

which is strange

it doesn't seem to affect other games

and the IND whatever that means is way higher

[queen sigil]

Yeah that sounds more like a server location issue

[wanton wagon]

But why is it worse on ethernet than wifi>

I don't think that should be a problem

[queen sigil]

ghosty

are you happy the karina GB is ending

[west hornet]

could depend on what sever in na perhaps, latency can greatly vary me getting anywhere from 30-90ms in na. i would try a few games to see if it is consistent

karina?

[wanton wagon]

ive tried like 3 games

all are like 100~ ping on NA so idk

nevermind fixed it

sorry haha

[timber ridge]

@magic jacinth if thats an aoc monitor, install g menu

[queen sigil]

@west hornet

[west hornet]

aww

[queen sigil]

I dont think it sold 100 units in a month

[west hornet]

so many shift key

[cunning hearth]

[timber ridge]

ooo i saw that kit

[tight pulsar]

finally shipped

[queen sigil]

ki w i

:(

[timber ridge]

ooo

[zealous silo]

is the kemove snowfox/shadow any good

[timber ridge]

not sure how good the stabs r on it

[west hornet]

looks like a tomato

[timber ridge]

but it being hotswap, you could always mod it

[zealous silo]

ok

[queen sigil]

hey if ur gonna ask us for recommendations

then completely ignore them

dont come for help

[zealous silo]

ok

[queen sigil]

@tight pulsar how many packs did u buy

[tacit wing]

anyone know a good mmo mouse?
@small nimbus G604 or Naga Pro

[tight pulsar]

i got them off a friend but 110

[small nimbus]

god bless dino

[queen sigil]

bro nachos

where

do u find all these local deals

[small nimbus]

i looked at some articles online about mmo mice but i gave up after a while

[tacit wing]

the Naga Pro is modular but its $$$

[tight pulsar]

mhm i wouldnt call it local cause he lives in enon but i have my places

[small nimbus]

dw about $

[tacit wing]

you can change how much side buttons you have. its interchangeable

[small nimbus]

i just need more buttons on the side

[queen sigil]

@tight pulsar Is it just you buying off friends or do you have like a place you find keyboard stuff

or like local keeb discords

[small nimbus]

i saw that but idk if i would actually use that and change the amount of side buttons

[tight pulsar]

it depends but usually in the switchmodders or ohio mk discords

the dude i bought them from was in both but i put the wtb post in the switchmodders one

[queen sigil]

Time to look for a local discord

[tacit wing]

g604 is worth a look

[small nimbus]

yea i would take the 12 button set anyways so idk if it's worth to pay for the interchangeability

[tacit wing]

o you need 12 buttons?

g600

not the 604

theres also the Schmitar but that isnt very good lol

[small nimbus]

hmm maybe i will get naga anyways seems like better grip than g600

[tacit wing]

also SS is rumored to drop an Aerox 9 soon

the G600 has a good shape and solid buttons but i admit its pretty outdated

the sensor isnt even optical its laser lol

boomer mouse

[timber ridge]

oof

[small nimbus]

hmmm if it's soon i can manage waiting

plus i want wireless but i dont wanna get banned for that ;;

[tacit wing]

ok well the Aerox 3 just dropped a week ago, you would have to wait for the 5 to drop first before you can get to the 9

[small nimbus]

what if they never drop the 9

[tacit wing]

o im sure they will, everyone was skeptical when they saw this chart and then SS dropped the Aerox 3

if you want wireless i think Naga Pro is a no brainer

for now at least

[timber ridge]

dino you picking up the new gpw?

[tacit wing]

no i need headphone money

also Logitech's site took a dump last night

[timber ridge]

good thing i didnt insta buy the mow

i need keyboard money

[small nimbus]

anyways ty dino now this is an aerox9 waiting room

[tacit wing]

no problem

aerox 9 i believe will be the lightest mouse with 12 buttons on the side once it drops

it wouldnt have a direct competitor

[small nimbus]

rn i have a corsair m65 but it's only has 2 side buttons it's tilting me

hopefully aerox 9 comes out before raiding starts ;;

[timber ridge]

mmo gamer?

[tacit wing]

i see aev on WoW all time

[timber ridge]

welp that answers my question

[sharp kindle]

i want glorious to make a mouse with multiple side buttons

thats lightweight

cause glorious will prolly be directly competing with steelseries if they do that

[timber ridge]

mmm

[sharp kindle]

or any other compant

not just glorious

[tacit wing]

that market is kinda deserted

[sharp kindle]

i would prefer glorious cause im a simp for them

[timber ridge]

i dont think their aiming at mmo gamers tho so i dont think itll happen anytime soon atleast

[tacit wing]

mmo mouse lightweight

[sharp kindle]

yeah true but lots of mmo gamers want lighter mice

[timber ridge]

might be happening soon tbh bc theyre starting to make all types of mice lightweight now

[tacit wing]

yes the market right now is too focused on the FPS arm aiming mfs

[timber ridge]

mad catz m1 is basically a lightweight g502

[tacit wing]

the only mouse that made noise with MMO lately is the Naga Pro

afaik

o god i have sour memories with MadCatz

i thought they went bankrupt

[timber ridge]

same

[tacit wing]

i used to have a Rat 7 and omg that thing was dreadful

[timber ridge]

really hoping razer drops a wireless viper mini

if it happens, itll prob force other companies to drop prices to compete

if razer doesnt bump up the price by like 70 dollars

[sharp kindle]

i only remember madcatz from the days when they sponsored cs events

back in 2015 or something like that

[tacit wing]

Viper Ultimate Mini or MOW Minus will make the Superlight run for its money

wait actually no theyre not comparable

[sharp kindle]

yeah cause the shape

[tacit wing]

i reckon Logitech can set F you prices on their flagship mice because not alot are cloning the GPW

theres the Hati but afaik, thats the only clone i can think of

and the HK Mira

[sharp kindle]

isnt the hati an fk clone too?

[tacit wing]

naw i dont think G Wolves is cloning the FK

[sharp kindle]

k i was mistaken

[tacit wing]

EC with the Skoll and Hati with the GPW

[sharp kindle]

yep theyre clones

the hati and gpro

[tight pulsar]

boop

[tacit wing]

i wouldnt be surprised if the OG GPW will tank down in price this Friday

[queen sigil]

boop
when you put the O ring insidie the switch

[sharp kindle]

oh crap

cntrl must be depressed

xqc just got banned from twitch again

[queen sigil]

[queen sigil]

[sharp kindle]

stream sniping fall guys

oh crap

[timber ridge]

it was because it was twitch rivals

LMFAO

[small nimbus]

[sharp kindle]

Hi im XQC and today we're going to stream snipe the presidential inauguration
@queen sigil imagine XQC's chat calling Biden a soy

[tacit wing]

[queen sigil]

xqc

[timber ridge]

[sharp kindle]

hes not lmfao

he just yells

[tacit wing]

pixel 3 XL

[sharp kindle]

no wonder cntrl likes him

[queen sigil]

hes like a teenager with adhd with the body type of a middleschool chess team leader

[tacit wing]

i dont mind xqc that much is just that just that his fanbase...

[sharp kindle]

i tried watching hi

m

hes just so loud

and toxic

to everyone

[tacit wing]

their mob mentality is THROUGH the roof

[queen sigil]

yeah he's like ninja

[sharp kindle]

and its not like entertaining loud

like tyler1 when he rages or something like that

[queen sigil]

hes really toxic but has the fanbase to support him

[sharp kindle]

its just straight up loud

[timber ridge]

my friend ran into him in league and they argued over all chat lmao

[sharp kindle]

apparently he played cs and got bullied

the one time i like the toxic csgo community

[tacit wing]

https://twitter.com/xQc/status/1234858123803885568?s=19

this tweet aged well lol

[queen sigil]

ive seen kids with touretts talk better than him

[tacit wing]

like more than half the pro player base of Val are ex-cs players

or retired from CS and came back in the field

[timber ridge]

valorant is easier than csgo

[queen sigil]

the point and click part of valorant is alot easier

it feels alot slower

but you're going to learn alot of tactics

[tacit wing]

in terms of Gun play and movement mechanics YES absolutely

[queen sigil]

team stuff

[normal barn]

yes agree with dino

and lance

valoarnt is eaier

and gaod damn it

at 150 the new gpw is

so god damn bad to me

[timber ridge]

cholax

[normal barn]

model o wireless

[tacit wing]

[normal barn]

looks more appealing

[timber ridge]

what was one thing you bought

in the last 2 months

[normal barn]

no rgb wtf logitech

uhh

razer headset

[sharp kindle]

he even yells on twitter

[normal barn]

lol

[sharp kindle]

damn

[tacit wing]

OHHH NOOOO RGB HOW COULD THEY

[normal barn]

ikr

[sharp kindle]

valorant is def a lot slower

[normal barn]

ehh

i can win games invalorant

[sharp kindle]

there was a huge problem with the operator

[normal barn]

i tried

cs go

got pulverized

:C

[sharp kindle]

where the operator was op

cause there wasnt enough util to block off angles

and the movement speed was slower

also spraying and first shot accuracy is a lot better in val

[tacit wing]

one thing id say about Val though is that itll be my main FPS game if CSGO didnt exist

[sharp kindle]

there is no counter strafin though

same dino, same

[tacit wing]

movement mechanics on Val is choppy af

jiggle peeking is choppy

[timber ridge]

val is plagued with cc tho

[tacit wing]

counter strafin is choppy

[timber ridge]

so many blinds in the game

[tacit wing]

oh god what they did to Breach thry massacred my boy

[sharp kindle]

you cant counter strafe in val

[tacit wing]

hes so broken

[sharp kindle]

csgo is def more skill based

and harder to peak as a player in

[queen sigil]

valorant is team based

[sharp kindle]

so is cs wdym

[queen sigil]

while csgo is op point and shoot

[sharp kindle]

they are both tac shooters

[normal barn]

lol

agreed

[sharp kindle]

extremely team based lmfao

[normal barn]

valorant im good at

i can carry

[tacit wing]

lol watch Astralis play and come back @queen sigil

[normal barn]

treid cs go for the first time

didn even know what happend

and i got killed in 10 second

didn know where to go

[sharp kindle]

i would actually argue valorant is less team based because of ults and stuff like that

[queen sigil]

13 year old playing CSGO moment

[normal barn]

appaently i went in to their kill zone

and i got sprayed by the whole team

:c

[sharp kindle]

leyo go watch any good csgo team such as liquid during the grand slam or astralis

[queen sigil]

yeah I know how you play CSGO

[sharp kindle]

extremely team based and util based

[queen sigil]

ive played alot of csgo

I went to ESL cologne in 2019

[sharp kindle]

astralis created the meta of using lots of utility

POG

HES ONE OF US

wait he might be kapping

[queen sigil]

I have a cloud 9 jersey with my name on it

[tacit wing]

pog

[queen sigil]

that I got from there

[sharp kindle]

poggies

cloud9 rn though

[tacit wing]

LMAO

how they got their ass whooped by OG

[timber ridge]

bruh

[queen sigil]

wheeze

[sharp kindle]

oh damn

hot

how they got their ass whooped by OG
@tacit wing i would say that OG is actually really hard to face without a nice game plan and practice

cause alekisb is a genuis

[normal barn]

@queen sigil brooooooooooo

[tacit wing]

5 igl's in one team pog

[sharp kindle]

wtf

[queen sigil]

lived on this for gamer summer

not actually

tasted bad

[timber ridge]

dino eating good

[daring zenith]

eating real good

[sharp kindle]

sp basically according to badseed

gpro superlight isnt really worth it

[small nimbus]

dino not sharing? toxic

[tacit wing]

being worth it is 100% up to the consumer. in this case if you wished you want your GPW to be lighter and you have 150 to burn, I'd say is worth it

not for me tho lol

dino not sharing? toxic
@small nimbus no

i love chicken shawarma

[sharp kindle]

all these anime profile pics and the same name color is confusin

[queen sigil]

clearly

[small nimbus]

toxic

[tacit wing]

@brisk parcel
https://youtu.be/83cHY_G78iU

im super tempted

[sharp kindle]

are embeds not working?

[tacit wing]

rip

i feel like i dont have enough Sennheisers to justify tubes

[normal barn]

sp basically according to badseed
@sharp kindle loll i saw his vid too

he said glorius blew the market and they cut out so much features like 2 buttons on both sides and why u romove rgb logitech bad moveeeeeeee

being worth it is 100% up to the consumer. in this case if you wished you want your GPW to be lighter and you have 150 to burn, I'd say is worth it
@tacit wing even if u have 150 he said viper ulti is more worth it

[sharp kindle]

its not even about the rgb

or 2 buttons on both sides

its just the shape is bland and it doesnt have many features

and im the person to say button wobble doesnt matter a lot but it looked like it had A LOT

[tacit wing]

Superlight is still going to sell like hotcakes no matter what reviewer thinks. alot of people are a big fan of the shape and there is a 63g version of the GPW ppl will fork over money no matter what

also like i said being "worth it" is ultimately up to how much boxes a mouse ticks for the consumer
