[radiant oracle]

If my phone had usb c :( my case doesn’t either pepehands

I think my mobo has 1 type c port

[swift lantern]

apple?

[radiant oracle]

Still using my 6s plus xD

Gonna buy a 12 mini soon tho

[swift lantern]

(stop buying apple products, I beg you)

[radiant oracle]

But my family uses imessage group chats

[swift lantern]

cringe

[radiant oracle]

And i have a macbook pro for work

[swift lantern]

cringe

[radiant oracle]

:/

[amber oracle]

nothing wrong with that @radiant oracle

[swift lantern]

only lightning port dac I see is from Ugreen

it might work with an adapter

[radiant oracle]

I tried a samsung but whenever people texted me I’d get like 15 different messages from people

[swift lantern]

but at that point, again I'd just go with a1 amp

[radiant oracle]

Thank you @amber oracle lmao

[swift lantern]

nah it's cringe

overpriced garbage

[radiant oracle]

I’m using a dac:amp or whatever for my pc strictly

[swift lantern]

[amber oracle]

its a choice @swift lantern

[radiant oracle]

I mean for my photography it’s amazing

And cinematography

[swift lantern]

oh if you just want a pc dac/amp

[amber oracle]

windows has been a absolute dump for productivity workflow for decades

[radiant oracle]

Yee

[swift lantern]

lol ok

if it's just for pc

maybe try shooting for a used fiio e10k

[radiant oracle]

Everyone I know in the industry uses apple for the creative work

[swift lantern]

dac/amp pretty basic not a lot of bells or whistles

[radiant oracle]

O.O aight I’ll go ahead and buy one

[amber oracle]

perhaps have a look around for reviews of using a dac/amp with the type of gear you have @radiant oracle

[swift lantern]

true true

[radiant oracle]

I use a shure 215 earbuds

[swift lantern]

although in my experience they make even the worst of headphones a bit better

[radiant oracle]

And im building me a new pc

[swift lantern]

no windows

[radiant oracle]

3700x and hopefully a 3070

[swift lantern]

aha

wait why 3700x instead of 5700x

availability right

[radiant oracle]

There isnt a 5700x

It’s either 5800x or 5600x

:/

[amber oracle]

(for now that is)

[swift lantern]

oh crap

[radiant oracle]

I think it’s a bad idea for them to release one

[swift lantern]

is the 5800x the 8 core slot?

[amber oracle]

aye

[radiant oracle]

Since people who want workflow will spend the extra for a 5800x

[swift lantern]

I mean here's the thing

[amber oracle]

re: 5700x: there is room in the stack for it.

[radiant oracle]

Yeee

I mean i feel like the 3700x would be good for regular gaming and videos or recordings

And I don’t want to spend another $150 on the 5800x

Since I feel its overkill

[swift lantern]

ah it definitely is pretty good

[amber oracle]

as in, there is a LONG way from 300 to 450

[radiant oracle]

Yeah

I just do videos for fun, no youtube or streaming so

I don’t feel like it’s necessary

[amber oracle]

but i fully agree that it does not make sense "right now" for them to release something in that spot.

currently its a good gatekeep for them in the sense that it helps them offload 3000 series chips

[radiant oracle]

Yeah, maybe in 5 months they will release a 5700x but that’s a long time to wait

[amber oracle]

aye aye

not saying you should wait :)

[radiant oracle]

XD

I waited 2 years to build a new pc so I kinda just want it now

And I’m waiting for 3070 to be revived :(

Oh! I saw corsair made a headset. Think it’s called virtuoso. Is that a good one to buy or is it too expensive?

[swift lantern]

how do 5600x and 3700x compare in productivity

[radiant oracle]

5600x wins in single thread performance

100/100

[swift lantern]

I know

but productivity I said

[radiant oracle]

But i think 3700x is like 5-10% better?

[swift lantern]

are there any wireless Over ears that support ldac actually

[radiant oracle]

Ohhh it’s wireless?

smh

[amber oracle]

@radiant oracle general rule of thumb: the "gaming" headsets dont compare at all to a real headphone+mic combo

its up to you if the difference matters to you or not thou

[radiant oracle]

Well i have a hyperx quadcast

But I don’t have a headset, just earbuds

[swift lantern]

do you want wireless

do you need a mic

[radiant oracle]

I prefer wired, I don’t need a mic :D

Just something comfortable

[swift lantern]

sennheiser time

[radiant oracle]

👀

[swift lantern]

58x perhaps

[radiant oracle]

Are the 599 good?

I’m hoping to keep it at like $100 or less hopefully lol

[daring zenith]

:D

[swift lantern]

$100 or less!??

[radiant oracle]

@daring zenith poggies!

[radiant oracle]

Yeah o.o

[swift lantern]

uhmmm

hmm

[daring zenith]

:D

[swift lantern]

well there's that I guess

maybe go with a pc37x

[amber oracle]

well done @daring zenith

[daring zenith]

PC37x is pretty damn good for it's current price

[amber oracle]

you have proven that you can be a spender of money

[daring zenith]

Naed I'm gonna wait for tomorrow to see if any good dac/amps go on sale for cyber monday

Yea, finally :D

[amber oracle]

you now have the right to spend more money

welcome to the rest of your life

[radiant oracle]

😂

[daring zenith]

Don't want the responsibility of managing finances yet xd

[radiant oracle]

It’s not too bad :D

[amber oracle]

too late for that @daring zenith

[radiant oracle]

Setup an excel spreadsheet then easy

[amber oracle]

if you can spend it, you can manage it

[daring zenith]

I've been helping my parents manage stocks, that's where the ableness to spend is coming from

But nothing solid :(

[amber oracle]

:)

[radiant oracle]

Is it worth getting a gaming headset if I don’t need the mic?

[daring zenith]

It's no longer worth buying any headset if you don't need the mic :)

Headset = Headphones + Mic

Headphones will be what you're looking for

[radiant oracle]

Oooh

[swift lantern]

58x jubilee time

[radiant oracle]

Is the 58x senheiser?

[swift lantern]

yeah

don't listen to "audiophiles" btw

just listen with your damn ears

[daring zenith]

:(

[radiant oracle]

I personally feel like I don’t notice any difference in sound going from headphones to headphones

Or even mic to mic

[daring zenith]

maybe dac/amp time

[radiant oracle]

Pepehands

Maybe

I’ve used a blue yeti and now im on a quadcast mic but I don’t hear any difference between them😂 i tried listening to hardware canucks video comparing all of them but they sounded almost identical

Maybe my ears are broken

[swift lantern]

perhaps..

[radiant oracle]

🥺

[swift lantern]

look into soundblaster g6

it has a preamp for microphones makes them sound better

and is also a decent amp in it's own regard

[radiant oracle]

hmmm

alright

ooooh it looks sexy af

is there a difference between the models?

like the g5 looks the same to me

[daring zenith]

lel

[brisk parcel]

@daring zenith ayyyy nice job buddy!

you'll enjoy them for gaming and music I promise

[daring zenith]

:D

Gonna get a fulla 3 tomorrow

Just in case they go on sale or something

[tight pulsar]

@daring zenith schiit doesnt have sales :v

[brisk parcel]

Evie loves them too and she was VERY hesitant because she was like "but I don't wanna spend more than $50"

[daring zenith]

I knoww

[queen sigil]

pls help

pls help

[daring zenith]

but maybe the Amazon seller will go on sale

[queen sigil]

i want to use my ipod

[daring zenith]

@queen sigil time to flash bios chip

[brisk parcel]

and I was like "trust me bud they're worth it" and she got them and she loves them

[daring zenith]

:D

haha

[tight pulsar]

lol https://www.schiit.com/about/about/on-deals

[west hornet]

blue yeti nowadays very meh

[daring zenith]

I'm also thinking of getting a MOW

either to completely replace my GPW or just a nice extra option til I get new switches in my GPW

Can't wait to feel the keeb thoo

nice gat browns on a good board that's lubed and clipped

compared to knockoff cherry blues on a cheapo board

[swift lantern]

Need... Headphon

[tacit wing]

you might find your hand grip shift differently transitioning from GPW to MOW

[daring zenith]

tbh my grip is just like

all over the place

I feel fine with a GPW and a G503

both feel natural

[tacit wing]

FK shape is flatter than anything Logitech have right now

its missing the pronounced hump of the GPW

im not saying its bad but it will be foreign to what youre used to

[daring zenith]

@tacit wing ofc, thanks for the tip, but my hands are pretty adaptive lel, anyways, the skates that come with the MOW are pretty good, and the switches don't have doubleclicking, correct?

[tacit wing]

no double-clicking, Glorious have the good Omrons

[sharp kindle]

zero double clicking

its genuine omron 20 mils

[daring zenith]

o nice

[sharp kindle]

i personally dont know

but some people say the battery life is a bit wonky

like a charge when you go to bed each day thing

[daring zenith]

tbh not that worried about battery life, I don't mind having to charge once in a while

[sharp kindle]

ok

as long as you dont have rgb at 100 percent you should be good

[daring zenith]

I have a Logitech power play mat but I'm fine with charging my GPW once in a while :P

[sharp kindle]

ok

you said that your grip adapts so you should be fine

[daring zenith]

I mean

I went from a tiny logitech office mice

to a I think G503

then a GPW

[sharp kindle]

the fk shape is great for ftip and claw

cause of the less pronounced hump

also the side button positioning might take some time to get used to

if you claw

its really ideal for ftip but not so much claw

[daring zenith]

I think I'm fingtertip actually

[tacit wing]

youll love the MOW

[daring zenith]

Whatever this is, most of the weight of my hand goes to the wrist and rests on the table.

oh well

I'll see when I get the MOW

[tacit wing]

unless your bottom palm touches the ass of the mouse, what im seeing is ftip

[west hornet]

hand reveal

[daring zenith]

Bottom palm does, but weight doesn't go on the mouse, it rests on the table

Side note, should I get a wrist rest for my keychron K8?

[tacit wing]

Ftip is just your fingertips being the only contact of the mouse

[sharp kindle]

ftip claw hybrid

its not full claw really but its not full ftip either

[daring zenith]

Prob hybrid

[tight pulsar]

wacky

[sharp kindle]

the mow should be fine for you

[daring zenith]

I like pivot off my wrist on the table

[sharp kindle]

this man aims like elige

poggers

[daring zenith]

Elige?

[sharp kindle]

tapping heads left and right

[tacit wing]

elige is palm wym

[sharp kindle]

i mean his aiming technique

[daring zenith]

Oh well, I can't recreate how I aim without actually playing

[sharp kindle]

he says he relies on his wrist guidig him on the table

and elige does that

elige is a csgo pro btw

[daring zenith]

Huh

Who knows, maybe I'll change how I aim once I get MOW

[tacit wing]

the GPW is the better shape if any part of your palm touches your mouse, the design is shaped to contours with so many hands

[sharp kindle]

yes but mow lends itself to palm claw hybrid pretty well

[tacit wing]

FK shape will always be my MAIN, but its not as versatile

[sharp kindle]

not palm claw

ftip claw

[tacit wing]

thats why Zowie made the S series

to bring what the FK is lacking

its literally just the FK shape with a more pronounced hump

i dont need no damn hump so the FK is perfect for me

[sharp kindle]

if your GPW has no problems why get a new mouse

[daring zenith]

double clicking

[sharp kindle]

the GPW has a great shape and if you get a good copy

ohh

ok

i wouldnt say try the new GPW

[daring zenith]

and also I'd like two mouse, one at home one at school

I'm also thinking about shipping the GPW out for someone to fix

anyways, second mouse will help either way

[sharp kindle]

try the Hati M

its a GPW Clone

lightweight

[daring zenith]

I want to try fingertip only tho

[sharp kindle]

its not wireless

[daring zenith]

hm

I'd prefer wireless

anyways I still have time to decide for that

[tight pulsar]

lol how many peripherals u buying

[daring zenith]

everything

Keeb+mouse+headset

@tight pulsar what kind of wrist rest should I try and get with the K8?

because now that I think about it

resting on table isn't a great habit and all

[tight pulsar]

i mean ur wrists shouldnt be resting on the table unless its like a 12* typing angle but any tkl sized one should be fine depends if u want hard or soft

[daring zenith]

I'd like soft

[sharp kindle]

plushy asf glorious wrist wrest

[daring zenith]

otherwise I would've bought the wooden wrist rest for K8 that keychron sells, unless hard wrist rest is superior?

[tight pulsar]

its p r e f e r e n c e

the magical word

[sharp kindle]

^^

[daring zenith]

(I was looking for the word, but sometimes there's science done)

@tight pulsar But anyways, other wrist rests wise, what about compatibility?

[strange ridge]

Does the aluminum frame add size to the keychron

I can't tell if it's the pic or if it actually adds size

[daring zenith]

@tight pulsar like are all TKL wrist rests the same size as TKL boards?

I'm thinking glorious wrist rest since I'll be buying MOW tomorrow too

[queen sigil]

depends the size of the case

[daring zenith]

(K8)

[queen sigil]

just earch up the dimensions of the keyboard

but most keyboards are around the same size except small variations in the size gaps and the case borders

[daring zenith]

alright, looks like 355mm width for K8, and 360mm width for TKL keeb wrist rest

Also, does the thickness of the rest wrist matter? I haven't had any before so I don't know how they would feel

[sharp kindle]

if you are getting a soft one, not really

it also depends on where you place your wristwrest

if you have it straight up next to the keeb or if you have it detached

[daring zenith]

I want to have it straight up next to it

[sharp kindle]

well then if you're getting a hard one it matters a bit

[daring zenith]

(I'd like Soft)

[tight pulsar]

yeah they answered the size stuff even if a board is a tkl doesnt mean they are the same size (i have that large boi eo87 that is much larger than a slim tkl)

[normal barn]

@tacit wing what is the porta pros line

lmao

theres like the pp

the port pro x

and prota pro with mi

[daring zenith]

hm

[normal barn]

oh

[daring zenith]

height including keycap in the front is 35mm, I prob want the 25mm thick wrist rest then

[sharp kindle]

[queen sigil]

[normal barn]

lmao

[tight pulsar]

:/

[sharp kindle]

[normal barn]

[sharp kindle]

well you wont get the board anyways

so dont worry

[tight pulsar]

lol lets see what the quote for making a kyuu would be

[strange ridge]

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CB8D2YB/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabt1_f4cXFbMECBJTY?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 unrelated are these good they have some non standard bottom row but not sure about the brand

[timber ridge]

ymdk is a budget brand

theyre known for a few things in the super budget range

kinda like hk but im not sure if theyre on par

[strange ridge]

Mostly found them cuz the non standard bottom row

Reviews seem good just wanted to check the opinion here so tyty

[tight pulsar]

@sharp kindle 🤔 he said like 500 for alu

[queen sigil]

the ymdk looks kinda sick ngl

ymdk 96

lol jk

[timber ridge]

you see the team liquid keycap set

[queen sigil]

ah yes

the legends are amazing

[timber ridge]

i actually like the color combo

[daring zenith]

lmao all of these checkmarks

[little crater]

its so impatient gamers understand what they're really buying into

[daring zenith]

This is just fine for me since I'll have GPW either way and can last a few weeks but yea

Never seen so many check marks required before lmao

[tacit wing]

Glorious nailed it in the park with this release

the QC on this mouse is just stellar, the best theyve ever put out so far

its literally quite the polar opposite of their Model D- release, which was a catastrophe

as in like worse than MM710 catastrophe

[sharp kindle]

do it you wont

[timber ridge]

ooo rei k2 is out rn i think

[tacit wing]

lance i have the sudden urge to back into sneakers

i saw some Royals on my instagram feed and i just started missing the pair i sold

[timber ridge]

i felt that dino

[tacit wing]

[timber ridge]

i almost bout some 12s like last week

[tacit wing]

im trying to get them back

sold it to some dude on Grailed

[timber ridge]

dino

theres some unc/pantone 1s coming out

and the material looks v nice

[tacit wing]

what is that im so out of touch in the game rn

idk whats going on atm

[timber ridge]

i jus got back into it

[tacit wing]

O THE UNC

[tight pulsar]

lol i dont need another expensive board rn @sharp kindle

[timber ridge]

like 3 weeks ago

i sold my collection to build pc

[tacit wing]

F

[timber ridge]

and havent gone back to it since

its too risky

[tacit wing]

my Storm Blues and Metallic Reds are the only pairs that survived

[timber ridge]

i have a local nike outlet like 15 min away

everytime i go there

i cop something

like its so hard to not to

[amber oracle]

dont rig your machine with things that explode then

:P

[tacit wing]

lance have you tried eBay's authentication service?

[timber ridge]

i dont buy from ebay

[tacit wing]

all i have experience buying is off stockx and grailed

why not from eBay?

[timber ridge]

i got all my heat from my nike outlet

they had some crazy stuff go there

[daring zenith]

what is this

[tacit wing]

outlet? theres nothing but bricks at my local outlet

[daring zenith]

schiit spam

[timber ridge]

mine had so much heat

[tacit wing]

typically all the throw-aways are there

[tight pulsar]

probably promotional stuff

[tacit wing]

the royals i sold for less than 250 now goes for 400 on stockx......

[timber ridge]

bruh less than 250?

what were the condition

[tacit wing]

it was selling for around that price at the time

2017 version

bro im such an idiot

hold on let me login to my Grailed to see how much i sold it for

it was because i was unemployed at the time and i just had to take the L

[timber ridge]

gg

[tight pulsar]

i gotta say i dont understand why people buy really expensive sneakers

[timber ridge]

pain

[tacit wing]

LMAOOOOO look at the price i sold it for

i was such a pepega

[timber ridge]

i dont think ive ever seen royals under 250

unless theyre beaters

[tacit wing]

dude a size 10 on stockX goes for 491 usd

and i sold it for 200

[timber ridge]

size 10 too

you can get away with a higher price jus bc its sz 10

[tacit wing]

to be fair, the guy i got it off of gave it away for 200 too

[timber ridge]

fair enough

[tacit wing]

i had to drive all the way to freakin Pasadena tho

anyways im trying to get this L back

[timber ridge]

what gonna be the first cop back

[tacit wing]

actually i have a Big W come up

Storm Blues go for 720 usd on stockX sz 9.5 right now

and i got mine for 235 at the time

[timber ridge]

ima cop some 9s when they drop

maybe 12s

[swift lantern]

Shoes

[tacit wing]

sneakers can become a clutter, thats why i got off of it for a while

but its just depressing looking at the stuff that i sold and comparing it to how much it is now

[timber ridge]

i lowkey ripped myself off too trying to make a quick buck

[strange ridge]

question and it may be dumb but, if you have normal switches you can swap those out with optical switches right

or no

[tight pulsar]

no

[timber ridge]

optical and regular mech switches are not interchangeable

[strange ridge]

cool gracias

[rugged lion]

do u guys think its worth it waiting for the gmmk pro over the ID80?

[timber ridge]

if you dont need the knob i would jus go with the id80

the idv80v2 looks super nice but its out of stock

atleast the ansi kits are

[queen sigil]

i should buy a gmmk and play rcing games with it

[rugged lion]

mans had 5 rgb fans in his name

[queen sigil]

use the rotary knobs as a racing wheel

[rugged lion]

lmao

i dont need / want the knob but hear me out i prefer the layout of the gmmk pro over the id80

also gmmk pro comes with stabs (id80 might)so less work

[sharp kindle]

i would get the id80

and as lance said

unless you want the knob the id80 is banging

also even if you add durock stabs its a bit cheaper

[timber ridge]

i would lowkey take a id80v2 over a gmmk pro

brass plate and underglow

[rugged lion]

no rgb on the id80 🤬

how are my gmk keycaps meant to look nice

if i cant accent them with the proper color

[sharp kindle]

rgb makes gmk keycaps look worse...

well full rainbow does

[rugged lion]

no kidding

[sharp kindle]

but honestly rgb isnt a deal breaker for me

[rugged lion]

wow i found the guy with no fps

[timber ridge]

v2

but thats the iso kit

[rugged lion]

very poggers but iso aint it chief

[timber ridge]

yea it isnt

not my build

jus a random pic

[rugged lion]

i mean there is ansi layout

[timber ridge]

out of stock

for the v2 but im im p sure its in stock for the v1

[queen sigil]

if u dont use the indian layout get out

[tacit wing]

apple magic mouse

[queen sigil]

indian layout gang

[timber ridge]

cursed

not sure about either tbh

[sharp kindle]

why would you want a trackpad?

unless you're on laptop and your trackpad is crap but idk

just get a mouse lmfao

[west hornet]

I could actually see the use for the trackpad, I thought it was stupid but some people just don’t have space for a mouse with all the gear on their desk or consoles sometimes

[tacit wing]

Joe Hisaishi, but make it Lofi Beats to Study/Relax to

[timber ridge]

nostalgic beat

[sharp kindle]

comfi beats

[timber ridge]

i tried making lofi stuff

kinda no fun tbh

[west hornet]

I found plug-in recently that very nice for lofi could try to make something one day haha

[timber ridge]

i got bored of making music

but i never really took it srs

it was one of those things that my friend got me into for a short period of time

[tacit wing]

i bought FL Studio and had no idea what to do on it and never opened it again

[timber ridge]

bruh

i think i still have fl dunno

[tacit wing]

ill just stay being a music consumer :))

[timber ridge]

its a pain to learn

ngl

harder than ae and ps

[tacit wing]

aint ableton harder

than FL

[timber ridge]

not sure but all my friends used fl

[tacit wing]

DAW's are literally rocket science

[timber ridge]

theyre cracked at fl

idk how they do it

[queen sigil]

[thorn zealot]

razer mamba wireless, corsair k63 blue

led

[queen sigil]

cool?

[tacit wing]

outdated mouse

[sharp kindle]

damn i havent heard about the mamba in forever

[queen sigil]

k63

[sharp kindle]

boomer mouse and horrible keyboard

[tacit wing]

the shape has identity issues, its like an ambi animorphing into an ergo and mf decided to stop halfway

[west hornet]

I’m thinking about buying new ableton but I want to explore it first, play with sounds and stuff

[sharp kindle]

i kinda liked the mamba shape...

maybe its cause its the first "gaming mouse" i had

[queen sigil]

my first gaming mouse was a red dragon

and my first gaming keyboard is another rando chineese brand

[tight pulsar]

my first gaming mouse was a model o- and my first gaming keyboard was my tofu65

[timber ridge]

what switches

[tight pulsar]

black inks

[timber ridge]

dang

[tacit wing]

my first gaming mouse was pure booty cheeks

cyborg rat 7 lol

[last plinth]

My first mouse and keeb was a havit keeb and mouse bundle

[sharp kindle]

nachos' first gaming keyboard had black inks?

damn...

[timber ridge]

his first keeb is some ppl's endgame

[tight pulsar]

🤔 my second keeb is this commission rn i may have fallen down the rabbit hole kinda fast

[timber ridge]

what the specs

[tight pulsar]

• alu half plate
• 70a o-ring in friction fit/bottom mount configuration

[tight pulsar]

yeah that one

[timber ridge]

i went to a laptop keeb to tecware phantom

[tight pulsar]

you cant not have used one of those in ur life

[timber ridge]

outemu red switches

[sharp kindle]

are outemu reds any good?

[timber ridge]

they feel crusty

[sharp kindle]

all ik about outemu is that they have the loudest clickies

[timber ridge]

ngl

[sharp kindle]

in the world

[timber ridge]

but then again it was a budget keeb, you can prob make them feel good

and outemu makes good parts from what im aware of

[sharp kindle]

spray lube

probably just a really crappy spring

like a really really crappy spring

not stem

spring

[timber ridge]

prob

their tactile switches peaked my interest a few times

outemu skys, then the bobas

[sharp kindle]

outemu skys look kinda good

[tight pulsar]

bobas are bae

[timber ridge]

i heard that they arent that bad

outemu skys ^

[tight pulsar]

theyre p much the best silent tactile rn

also gazzew said hes gonna have non silent bobas in a few weeks 👀

[timber ridge]

rip

[sharp kindle]

pog

[timber ridge]

i mean t1s are good

and bobas are like 70 per switch i think

unless non silent will be cheaper

[tight pulsar]

Hello

[sly warren]

Man these new earpads on my M50X's feel so good.

[normal barn]

https://earstudio.store/products/es100

this is suppose to be a bluettoth headphone amp

that can run planars???

[normal barn]

lmao

who didn

Sonarworks Reference 4

wat that

[devout vale]

is it possible to have too many usb devices? cause my pc wont boot up when its all filled

[normal barn]

...

idk

wahts ur specs

and why do u keep it plgeed in when its off lmao

[devout vale]

wdym off?

am i supposed to take out the usbs when i turn off my pc???

[normal barn]

idk

why dont u take it off then boot it up then put them back in

or run a diagnosis check

or call tech support lmao

[devout vale]

yeah it works when i take out my camera

is it possible the psu is dying from too many usbs on startup?

[normal barn]

yeah

probably

[devout vale]

do you know of a way to counteract that?

[normal barn]

uhh how many watt is ur psu

gimme ur specs and stuff

[amber oracle]

@devout vale powered usb hubs

[devout vale]

uhh lemme pull it up sorry for late reply

@amber oracle is there a thing i could do in bios to counter that?

[amber oracle]

no

[devout vale]

or is the hub the only way?

[amber oracle]

its a board design issue/detail

it might be that your camera is doing weird things with the usb connection

(as in, that is also a possibility)

[devout vale]

it didnt happen before

[amber oracle]

something "fun" for you to consider: just because something has a usb plug, does not mean it behaves as it is ideally meant to

[devout vale]

and when there were just alot of usbs it put that press delete to enter bios

then started up

thats my pc thingy

oh wait

[amber oracle]

IF its something that has changed, then the question is: What have you changed in between it working and it not working?

[devout vale]

adding more usbs

hahaha

[amber oracle]

the way i normally make certain its NOT a problem is by the way of powered hubs

[devout vale]

https://pcpartpicker.com/user/RiceOkayPls/saved/#view=RzwRvK @normal barn + a camera

how would i do that?

[amber oracle]

that removes the option of it being a problem

[devout vale]

just removing them one by one and hoping it starts up normally?

[normal barn]

yeah

it might for a faulty

usb

that interfers

with the whole bios

[devout vale]

no but like i plug it in after it starts up and it works just fine

i used to have my iphone charger in that slot

and it started up just fine

[amber oracle]

your problem is that you are pulling beyond what the ports are supplied

[tame isle]

looking for a microphone and boomstick, any suggestions? ideally 150 combined

[amber oracle]

which you get around by using powered hubs

[normal barn]

...

naed

[devout vale]

good thing its cyber monday

[normal barn]

he has a 500 w psu

power supply

[devout vale]

550

[amber oracle]

@normal barn you are missing the point

[normal barn]

ok 550

[devout vale]

😄

[amber oracle]

he could have a 3000 watt psu

[normal barn]

he need a upgrade

[amber oracle]

it would not matter

its the mobo design

mainboard usb ports are NOT designed equally

and they are 100% NOT powered equally

[devout vale]

how many slots should i get for a usb hub

i can get my sister to get me one

[amber oracle]

that depends on what you are trying to drive

and how fast you need it to be

[devout vale]

i think streaming speed would be good?

[amber oracle]

here is something you can try

[normal barn]

uhh

anker 7 port

charging

thingy

is like 20 i think

[split snow]

Hyperx solo cast sounds just like the quad cast s but half the price

[amber oracle]

mark/note down how all the usb plugs are connected. then start systematically moving them around

[devout vale]

how would i do that????

i just plug them all in the back haha

and my camera is in the front

[amber oracle]

be logical about it

its not rocket science mate :)

[devout vale]

aight

so i can probably remove one for my keyboard

[amber oracle]

you currently have 6 usb ports in the back

[devout vale]

like the one that lets me use the charging thing

since i can charge somewhere else

lemme restart pc and if it works ill let u guys know

[amber oracle]

make a list of what is connected where

and post it here @devout vale

[devout vale]

im using 1 2 3 and 4

Yeah the camera is the thing preventing startup

Webcam*

[normal barn]

agreed

[amber oracle]

yes, because the front panel connector doesnt supply the same amount of power that the other ports do @devout vale

[devout vale]

I put them all in the back

[amber oracle]

try and plug the webcam to number 5

[devout vale]

K

[amber oracle]

that should have all the juice

[devout vale]

Camera into 5 right?

[amber oracle]

well, both 5 and 6

aye, camera into 5

[devout vale]

K restarting

No way that worked

Thanks naed

😄

[amber oracle]

aye, and you learned something new today too :)

[devout vale]

Yup

[amber oracle]

you are very welcome :)

[devout vale]

5 and 6 = juice everything else is weak sauce

[amber oracle]

the order is this

1+2 = weakest

3+4 bit stronger

5+6 strongest

it basically scales with the version of usb plug that it is

1+2 = usb2

[devout vale]

3+4 go to kb and mouse then 1+2= headphones and extra charging

[amber oracle]

3+4 = usb3

5+6=usb3.1

the front panel connectors are normally "only" usb2 or usb3

but with a weaker power delivery

[devout vale]

Yay i can plug everything in and it still boots up correctlyy

[amber oracle]

:)

[devout vale]

tyvmmm

[amber oracle]

out of curiosity, what camera is that?

[devout vale]

uhh idk actally

[amber oracle]

and you are very welcome :)

[devout vale]

i only got the link from my friend

[amber oracle]

i mean, does it have a model name on it?

[devout vale]

nope

on the box it just says web cam full hd 1080p

hhahaha

[amber oracle]

hm

got a phone you could grab a photo of it with?

if not, dont worry

[devout vale]

its that thing

[amber oracle]

its just idle curiosity from me

[devout vale]

wait no

not that

Here u go

[amber oracle]

that one looks like a copy of a logitech c920

so heck knows what is actually inside it

oh well

[devout vale]

hahaha

[amber oracle]

as long as it works for you :)

[devout vale]

yup

[amber oracle]

thank you for the picture

[devout vale]

np

ty for ur help once again

and now i go back to my claass

[amber oracle]

enjoy :)

[normal barn]

@amber oracle ayo ur oinion on Sonarworks Reference 4

opinion*

and https://earstudio.store/products/es100

the es100 can supsoely run 6xx and other high demanding plarars

[amber oracle]

no opinion at all

i have never tried them

[thick plank]

6xx are one of the easiest to run headphones though at over 100db/mw

[blissful grove]

just get blutooth headset instead

[thick plank]

Only issue is you lose a lot of bass on them unless you have excessive capacitance on the amp

Big dynamic driver

Bigger dynamic driver

That a gud keyboard? ^

[daring zenith]

It's not even mech..

[devout fiber]

ok boys im once again back for headphone recommendations

I'm looking for a pair of bluetooth headphones at around or under $60ish

preferably white

needs to be bluetooth

black is ok too

open or closed back is fine, leaning towards open tho

[blissful grove]

hmmm

[devout fiber]

oh hi @blissful grove

[blissful grove]

Ello! 😄

[devout fiber]

just saw you in the ZTT server lol

[blissful grove]

Yes sir

[daring zenith]

welp anyways, GK61 remains the cheapest keeb I'd reccomend

[devout fiber]

what about rk61

[last plinth]

its decent

Dont know about u but i NEED arrow keys

For typing at least

[queen sigil]

RK build quality is kinda lacking

[normal barn]

@devout fiber https://www.audio-technica.com/en-us/ath-sr30bt

[devout fiber]

those looks small

forgot to mention i have a big head

big ears

i like a larger headphone

[last plinth]

Sennhesiser 450bt

100$ off

QUICK @devout fiber

[devout fiber]

outta budget

[last plinth]

So ur budgets 70$

[devout fiber]

70 max

i really dont need excellent sound quality

im like deaf to good sound

this is coming from the dude who thinks apple earbuds sound good

so

[last plinth]

Can u get 30$ more dollars or no

[rugged lion]

@tight pulsar ok so whjat were u saying

frankenswitching a eg v2 with a cherry top housing?????

[tight pulsar]

yeah why

[rugged lion]

why would u do that

[tight pulsar]

because it has a better sound profile

[rugged lion]

cherry does?

[tight pulsar]

y e s

[rugged lion]

sound profile is subjective btw

unless ur talking about a specific noise

[tight pulsar]

some things are subjective and some things are subjectively better

[rugged lion]

true

[tight pulsar]

i dont know a single person that says everglide top housings sound better than cherry

[rugged lion]

like a bauer 2 is better than a rk61

like okay sure maybe it is subjective to a degree but its also objective

@tight pulsar arent eg v2 just rebranded jwk/durock linears ?

[tight pulsar]

yes literally every good linear is either a jwk or gateron recolor

[rugged lion]

true lol

besides higher end ones like tealios or (ig) creams

also alps

[timber ridge]

oof

im jus now learning about the vega and kara kit

[tight pulsar]

tealios are gaterons

[rugged lion]

r u sure....?

i dont think they are

[queen sigil]

nachos trybosys or krytox

[tight pulsar]

depends on what switches and what you want the lube to do

[queen sigil]

they use modified gat housings or something

[rugged lion]

housing yes

its not the saem as a jwk/durock switch

where theres multiple literal just recolored version

like the banana splits

[timber ridge]

banana splits are pretty

[rugged lion]

yeah

but tbh u rarely see ur switch unless u have a floating swithc design keyboard

[timber ridge]

but yea, a lot of switches are jus recolors

[rugged lion]

i mean i have an nk65 so i'd never see it

[rugged lion]

yeah especially linears

[timber ridge]

my switches coming in are recolored jwk/durock linears

lol

[rugged lion]

which ones

[timber ridge]

ev 01

[devout fiber]

id really rather not

[tight pulsar]

p sure the tkc banana splits are tangies without the uhmwpe but i didnt look into them much

[timber ridge]

arent tangies in stock rn

[tight pulsar]

probably

[rugged lion]

banana splits are rebranded jwk if thats what u mean

[tight pulsar]

they use c3 housings from the tangies

but made by durock yeah

[rugged lion]

they cant be made by durock????

[tight pulsar]

wut

[rugged lion]

durock doesnt manufactor them

jwk is the manufactorer

then they sell them to durock to distrubute

[tight pulsar]

theyre made by durock but use a modified housing that c3 created for the tangerines

[rugged lion]

durock isnt a manufactorer

they are just a reseller

like target or walmart

[tight pulsar]

yes

[rugged lion]

r u sure?

[tight pulsar]

its a brand name for jwk switches

[rugged lion]

yes.

jwk makes the switches

then durock sells them

[tight pulsar]

yes

[rugged lion]

durock doesnt do any manufactoring

[tight pulsar]

99% of the time you can use them interchangeably

[rugged lion]

yeah kinda

but jwk manufactors then sells to durock

[tight pulsar]

but anyway theyre just slightly modified jwks

[rugged lion]

yeah

almost all linears are xD

or gat's

even my tactilesa re made by jwk lmao

[tight pulsar]

jwk makes a lot of stuff

[rugged lion]

yeah

even google is confused

basically the same thing tho

[brisk parcel]

also @royal sandal back to what I said about headphones with good soundstage and imaging being better than any if not most "surround" on a gaming headset, I stand by that pretty well

I've had years of experience with both 😂

[royal sandal]

huh

gud to know

[brisk parcel]

putting that comment here so it doesn't clog the build chat

yeah trust me, if you want to ever get a taste of audiophile, give me a shout and let me know your budget 😂 happy to help

[royal sandal]

Im not an audiophile and I like my RGB, so ill stick with Razer for a while but ill get back to you when that changes

thanks

[brisk parcel]

always good to look at things for casual listening too 🙂

[west hornet]

[tacit wing]

what headset r u getting?

Youre Fula Schiit Mr1111

[daring zenith]

@tacit wing I'm full of crap I know

PC37x to start off

[queen sigil]

[daring zenith]

A fairly broad purchase of mouse, keeb, headset, and amp/dac, I'll focus more budget onto a better headphone down the line

[tacit wing]

little easter egg if you plug in a mic input windows will recognize it as "You're Fula Schiit" in device manager or something like that

[daring zenith]

Seriously?

[tacit wing]
