Lets unbox the new Klipsch Promedia 2.1 computer speakers system. Wondering what computer speakers are good in 2020. The Klipsch Promedia 2.1 is THX certified. This means that Klipsch meets certain acoustical requirements and sound qualities get THX's stamp of approvial. Lets do a quick unboxing, of the Klipsch Promedia 2.1 speakers. Lets see wh...
š¤¦āāļø
none of them work
It's the Realtek...
thats what is selected
Did you... TURN THEM UP?
yes
I'm very skeptical.
Im dumb but not that dumb
This is 100% PEBCAK
probably did miss a step tho
Watch the video I just posted.
Gotta make sure the bare wires are plugged into the subwoofer correctly.
yeah he did what i did
ill recheck the wiring
unplugged the wires and then put them back in
still doesnt work
im thinking its the pc or something
i touched the green plug and it made a static noise
Yeah, it could be that your rear panel 3.5mm jack is fried.
Try the front panel one.
If not, I guess you can buy an Apple USB-C to 3.5mm dongle and use that for a Speaker/Headphone output
It'll sound better than your Motherboard output anyway.
Try to test the ports with other headphones to make sure they are working
And any gain that may be on the speakers is up
whats a decent mic arm i have a fifine k678
rode PSA1 BLUE compass
id assume some amazon gas spring mic arms wouldn't be terrible
for one of those fifine a standard neewer would work. not the best but its a budget option
tonor arm op
Should i get anime mousepad
no get bruhmat
stack
popcrn alt?
dualshot mekamat š³
yep
cool
hazakura, matsuzuka, and k-store pretty pog
bruhmat legendary
anyone got some recomended mice for 100$ or under
bakeneko60 
anyone know of some good black and white themed keycap sets
hmmmmmm
what do you mean black and white themeed
just keycap sets that stay within those two colors nothing weird yk
Smarter Shopping, Better Living! Aliexpress.com
wait this is actuall godly
yes it's one of yongqiu's good deeds (prob their best non-clone set)
this if u want it from amazon
same set
thank you
Anyone know a 75cm x 30cm mousepad under $25? Cant find any mousepads at all for 75cm
ideally would be nice to be closer to $18 or less, cuz it's a mousepad and not a $50+ artpiece
For such a big mousepad
You aināt just paying $25
deskmats only runs u for $25-30 most of the time
check out omnitype
they might have
that's p smol tbh
common deskmats is bigger than that
I have the fifine k678 but I need a longer cable if I get a extender will it affect transmission
shouldnt unless it's ridiculously long
Need some advice. I have htis mouse. Scroll works, but middle click is not working. has anyone else had this issue?
The M65 PRO RGB is a competition-grade FPS gaming mouse with the technology you need to win, the customization to make it your own, and the build quality to last.
XLR runs are rated for like 250ft
Yeah was going to say, mics sometimes need to be pretty far from the interface/amp
Am I supposed to take off the plastic stuff from the mouse feet?
depends what plastic stuff ur talking about
like if it has the plastic wrap stuff then yeah
its the plastic wrap
yeah you should take it off
I dont really like it its very fast
then turn dpi or sens down
That too
Your probably at like, some stupid high DPI setting, anything over 1000 DPI is excessive.
600dpi is nice
im on 800 dpi
Then check your Windows Sensitivity.
I think my dpi is 1700 idk what my cursor speed is in windows
Set that to 5 or 6. That will be smoother and slower.
Cursor Speed also affects in-game sensitivity
in windows setting right not where you turn off mouse acceleration in the control panel thing
Well, you want to turn off Mouse Smoothing also. In the control panel is where Cursor Speed is also.
i have 6 on control panel and its 10 for windows setting
6 and 6 then
ok ill try that
it wouldnt let me do it in control panel but it works in the mouse software for my mouse
hey skiptrace I gotta warn you the phoenix have a 10k peak that might bother you
Hmm. I'm getting KSC75s on Wednesday.
So, I'm giving brighter headphones a try.
If I enjoy them, then I'll probably just get the Phoenix.
about 1 pc restart worth of work but yeah
Clip is a bit uncomfortable
@sly warren the low impedance can have an actually great effect on percieved brightness
Interesting.
finding out, very upsettingly, that the phoenix sound better on my e10k or phone than they do on the zen can
So... Use them with just the Meizu Dongle?
Hell, I might buy an Apple Dongle just for them.
Kek
if you do that they will sound pretty good with basically no harshness but then they won't have the ummph
wish they would've made them higher impedance
idk what I'm supposed to do with this info...
Lol
I'm not sure I would unless they were an audio nerd like us
ok so if the problem is power distortion or whatever.. does that mean it needs a "cleaner" amp
I wonder if all it would take is those impedance adapters I got coming in the mail...
an e10k can do it decent enough, on low gain
that's how little power these things need
Hmm, what kind of "impedance adapter" is it? Is it just a thing you plug in to add more ohms of impedance?
yeah DUNU sells them
30, 70, and 200 ohm variants
I got the 30 and 70 ohm pack, I'm curious how that might effect them
I was originally looking at them cuz I realized balanced armatures SCREAM if you put them on higher power gear
Will wait for your review to see if the Phoenix is worth the hassle.
And apparently Crinacle is reviewing them.
Yeah like the fh3 are incredible on a phone or just dongle
but plug them into a zen can and uh... ouchy
I'm not sure how much I trust his opinion... hmm
Smarter Shopping, Better Living! Aliexpress.com
this board is tempting
heard some good things
id80 is alright
if you own an enthusiast keyboard it'll seem meh
but for most people it's really nice
are asia horse cable extensions good
my only complain is no rgb for ur keys smodge
@rigid valve bout to drop 170 on a gmmk pro
Yeah just made huge bank on crypto
niice
i have like $700 on amazon
but i have to share it with my bro for sum reason
so im hesistating
also amazon doesnt have a lot of stuff
yeah
stiff, pingy bottom (u can change to arcylic bottom to reduce it)
fro starters, it's ok
iirc it wasnt pingy, jus muted
you can't really see it in this pic but there's like a shadow/ripple effect on my second monitor. what is causing it lol
You buy a new monitor.
rephrased: what is causing it
I mean I got what I paid for it was $10 at a garage sale
Age more than likely.
I just added another monitor to setup(the one on the left) and Im not sure what to think of it. Its more convenient but it kinda looks off. What do yall think?
mmmm
Its just an old tv/monitor that one of my friends let my have for free, so theres not really any harm in not using it.
can I talk about monitor stands here or would that be better suited for displays?
either or
Switches and lube should be here Wednesday.
What switches?
nice
Yep
Anyone here know if Gliging gmk clones are decent?
where did you order them from?
ringerkeys.com as well with the lube
hmm i dont see krytox on there
why use ringerkeys
that is just the first place i saw
oh ok
what are the pro's and con's of a freestanding monitor mount?
also couldnt find another site that I trusted
amazon is overpriced for ks3
205g0 has been just gone from amazon when I looked at it last
I got mine for a bit overpriced but whatever, good nuff
is 205g0 the overall preferred lube for gat yellows?
depends on ur personal pref
lube is personal preference, 205g0 is just overall good
gotcha
theyre good for the most part
kinetic labs had same switches for about the same price but with slight factory lube
i mean if I am already lubing them what is the point
be able to test them out of the box and test afterwards? idk
it was like 1 buck cheaper for 90 so ill probably buy mine there
all good I just got 80 for any that I mess up beacuse the keyboard kit is a kbd67lite so just extras
yeah well was trying to decide between olivia clone or like some just some random plain white ones, and the clones are only like 20-30 bucks more and might as well spend a bit more for ones i think look better
gotta be racking up that mining money so i can not bite into my crypto accounts lol
droq convinced me, if im going to be doing a 150 dollar build with the intent to do a better one in the future, might as well do 250 dollar build and not do 2 builds
they r decent but pls no
205g0 is the preffered lube for most if not all linears
can't reccomend clones coz the cloners stinky
Are there any keyboards/kits cheaper than the gk61x
sure
k552 
kits?
i've yet to see one
and if there is, i doubt it's even worth getting
tbh in that point it's better to get a prebuilt and mod them than buy gk kit
at least you know the usb port won't fall of so easily
š„¶
second one is more cool
Anyone have any experience with the Kain Series of mouses by Roccat? Specifically the 122? After four years my 15 dollar amazon mouse finally gave out on me and i was thinking of investing in a nice one
Step 1 to buying mouse: Measure Hand in CM.
Step 2: Go to https://www.rocketjumpninja.com and use the mouse search tool.
I personally wouldn't buy a Roccat mouse in the first place. My dad used to use one, but the left click gave out after about a year, and the software sucked because it wouldn't remember his settings.
I have a R.A.T. 7 scroll is janky and right click is borked
@sly warren do you know when that was? It looks like they've started using new technology for their left and right clicks and the software for the LEDs is supposed to be pretty decent, was your dads recent?
But if he had a bad experience like that I prob wouldnt get one
Got it thanks
do all mechanical keyboards come with taller keycaps?
some profiles are taller than another, but overall they will be taller than lower profile keycaps
oh
everything above g20 are normal (mx style) keycaps, g20 is logitechās own, and mbk are kailh choc switch keycaps
if you want low profile mechanical iirc choc switches are the usually the best bet
what keyboard?
red dragon k552 its the rainbow backlight version with outemu red switches
you should be able to use any profile until dsa on that list just fine
thereās a bunch of other profiles not on that list but as long as they say something about mx or cherry mx stem you will be fine
I have g20 keycaps i think i got it from a logitech mk120 keyboard but they dont fit on the keyboard im using right now
g20 keycaps only works on their own logitech switches
oh
you can use any of these and they should work
ok
sculpted choc keycaps
hm
anything that says ācherry mx stemā or āmx stemā (looks like a +) should work on your keyboard, just make sure it has the size keycaps (make sure the spacebar isnāt too long or too short, etc)
ok
it looks like a normal spacebar length so anything that says 6.25u spacebar should be fine
ok
isnāt that just 5
But the spacing
what pcb should i buy from kbd fans ( i want rgb)
Just get a KBD75 kit.

I just can't please you.
remember when i said dont give custom keyboard advice
He wanted a KBDfans PCB. I gave him a whole kit.
That way he doesn't have to buy anything else but switches.

What is so wrong with giving them the whole kit instead of just a PCB? What if he hasn't thought about a case or anything else?
@pearl ginkgo what case are you gettimg
then dont get a kbd. 75
I mean the whole kit has everything except switches.
So, it's basically the closest thing you can get to a "prebuilt" that you just have to assemble yourself.
except for the fact you out of all people shouldnt be recommending keyboardsq
People asking for pcb most likely already has the rest of the build in mind
Otherwise they'd just ask for a keyboard
Anyways
u already have the keyboard? if not just buy a kit instead.
oh
and a pcb and plate and everything custom
the dz60/65rgb then
depends on the size of the case but tbh
bakeneko is pog
60% but the mounting style makes it so good
also only $130 
how do i fix my keyboard wobble on the left side
like when i press a key like a on the left side really hard the whole left side would like wobble or like go down
idk
i found a solution its good now i just put something under the left side like paper and it doesnt wobble
Oh, you just don't have a flat surface.
HI NEWEGG i have already bought everithing i need except for the ups, i need one that is compatible with 220v can i have some help with that?
Can you please not spam channels and go back to build chat?
Ok man
switches and lube arrived a day early
already got one off of amazon
Arrived?
yep
Lube time
I am also going on a trip and my kit arrives after that trip so I might do it on the trip as a thing to pass time
Does the gk61x or xs have an aluminum case?
Prob not
nah i was just bored
Lol
Fren: Iām doing first keyboard build plz help
Also fren: budget $600
Tell them to get holy pandas
lol
Got my mouse today and o really like it
nice
Who knew that with a lighter mouse lower dpi felt better
what mice?
yes but at that point bakeneko is already cheaper
Link?
kl-90 pc 
just google
there's currently only one store that sells bakeneko 60
and it's cannonkeys
Is model o wireless worth the extra $30 from the original?
i never bought it but i would say that if you just want a wireless mouse get that but if you dont care just get the cheaper one
get a g305 instead
its basically the same thing ur asking but better consistency in quality
@tawny spindle i think glorious model O quality control is really bad @sharp kindle
What about a normal model o?
Death adder v2, first time using a light mouse lol
The only light mouse for gigantor hand like mine apparently
Agreeš my 3 model o wireless all has their own little issues like squeaking in different places
Razer viper light speed any good?
YESYESYES
AGREE
pulsefire haste better
i think imma save up for g304 instead
so i'll have a valid reason to learn soldering 
@rigid valve bad financial decision made
poggers
noice
oh btw ur kinda locked into the plates if the goat stab u got was bad
unless u buy pc plate then maybe it'll fit
unless they already addressed the plate fitting problems
Probably going to buy pc plate once I get enough mining monies
yep but imo it's better if they actually address that fitting problems first
ooh
bruh my views on the pro dropped today
how come
fair
already had pretty negative opinions then some guy in glorious revealed a lot more about cheap pcb/marketing
did anybody expect to have a hiney pcb in a $170 board
wait what
kekw
What kind of switches are realy slow
Like really heavy?
I ment quit
what
the ones are too heavy for you
Got my eveerything just have wait until my kbd67lite arrives in somtime mid June
nice

Ight boys, I got an issue. Long story short, my Bluetooth headset wonāt have any sound when connected to my pc. It connects wirelessly via a usb, my mouse works fine wirelessly via usb so Iām really lost. Any advice?
Uh
Have you tried turning it off and on again
Have you checked what audio output you are using
Ok
Go to bottom right where there is volume slider
Above that should be a thing saying what audio output you have
Click on that
And it should have some choices
Usually thereās an option for ur monitor speakers if they exist and ur mobo etc
Yea I have the one with my headset model selected
Hm
Can u try connect headset to different device
Like my phone?
Just something
Yea sure
Anyways this is as far as I can take u
Itās past 10:00 over here and I have school tmrw
found the issue, updated drivers, stupidly logitech made it to where you had to download this old software to update the headset firmware.
thank you anyway
Hey guys, I have a corsair harpoon mouse that does this static noise every time I move it. The noise seems to come out from the PC, at the USB connection level but once I swap the mouse, there is no noise. Do you think it is a cable or circuit issue?
Probably just rma the mouse
Should I get a durock teal or a durock purple
What size paint brush is recommended for lubing
Uh
Idk what sizes paint brushes use but once heard someone say 0 or 00
Basically just make sure the brush is smol
I am just going to buy a kit of a switch opener, lube brush and stem holder on Amazon for like 15 bucks which is nice cause switch openers by themselves are like 9-10 bucks
Bluetooth on PC is garbage.
Just don't try.
Audio over BT on PC is literal ass because Winblows doesn't support AptX.
wat
I think you need to rethink that statement lol. Windows 10 has supported AptX for a long time now. "Bluetooth audio enhancements (Wideband speech, aptXĀ®) - High Definition sound while limiting Lip Sync and latency issues." https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/component-guidelines/bluetooth
^
Then they implemented it incorrectly. Because Bluetooth Audio on PC is absolutely ASS.
wha
I've never had a good experience getting my Bluetooth IEMs to work with my PC or Laptop. Both are using Intel Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combo chips (PC has an AX200, Laptop has an older AC chip)
I either get mediocre audio quality and a lot of lag, or absolutely ass quality and microphone support with the same amount of lag.
These are the same IEMs I daily drive on my phone at work.
And I've tried other BT audio gear before too. Same results.
skiptrace knows all
I had a pair of bt earbuds myself
Worked fine on a much worse wifi card
Audio quality is as good as bt can be, no latency either
But bt is always inferior to wired
Maybe it's just some weird combination of my card and gear.
The IEMs I have currently don't support AptX, but I did try with a verified known AptX compatible pair, and the results were the same.
Mhmm, that's definitely odd
Tried driver updates too.
My Xbox One and 8BitDo controllers work flawlessly over BT also.
It's super strange.
This might be worth a read https://helgeklein.com/blog/2019/01/bluetooth-audio-quality-aptx-windows-10/
Interesting.
Might pick up a pair of AptX LL headphones and that Avantree thing. It'd be nice for playing Elite Dangerous to be almost completely wireless (Still need a wire for the pesky HOTAS)
Though I might need Mic support...
@swift lantern There's a new Schiit Magni called the IEMagni. Its designed for IEMs or Headphones. One setting has Negative Gain. It might be perfect for the Sivga Phoenix.

they also got rid of the gamer red accents
I'm super interested in it. But I'd have to save up like, 500 bucks in total just to try it.
Cause I'd need the IEMagni, a Modi, and the Phoenix themselves.
I mean the phoenix sound great on anything that isn't overpowered
Or well I mean, it could even be the case that the zen can just isn't cutting it
Hard to know without spending a gorillion dollars on different amps
Fair.
I'd probably start with the Phoenix.
And then add the Modi and IEMagni
The IEMagni is another 20 dollars over the normal Magni. But having the extra versatility is nice.
I was actually gonna try the q3 I think
kuzu whats ur current upgrade plan rn
Q3? Is that a FiiO product?
portable dac/amp?
Yeah
o gg
JESUS
Other than that, I'm hoping I officially settle
I might buy one if your Phoenix sounds good out of it.
Then I'd never need another DAC or Amp
And if I continue to love my phoenix I might get some hart audio cables or something
Yeah, getting a Balanced Cable for the Phoenix sounds like a meme though.
You don't need that much sheer power.
They do unbalanced too don't they
I think so?
Just very sexy cables in general
Maxxed out at 7 o clock 

What about those Quick Disconnect cables where you can swap tips?
I think Zeos uses those.
Seems neat.
The end bit can screw on and off? Not evident by pictures I didn't realize
found this funny lmao
No, there's a part of the cable that is a Mini XLR 3 Pin that you pull out and swap the other side to a new interconnect end.
So you can use 3.5mm standard, 4.4mm balanced, 2.5mm balanced, Double XLR Balanced, Double Mini XLR Balanced, etc.
lizard salespeople
lol
oh ok thanks
are you talking about switch interference?
idk what that is but sure
90% of the time if it doesnāt specify SA or DSA etc itās cherry
you can but you will have interference
except when it interferes with north faces switches
First impressions of the KSC75: Why didn't I buy these sooner?!?
Eh, the Porta Pros were "These are nice, but they are missing something"
The KSC75 are what the Porta Pros are missing.
I wonder... Can you put KSC75 drivers on a PortaPro headband?
Well, the answer is YES you can.
I think I'll keep them stock for now though.
has anyone used stand v004z by vivo?
not really
north facing switches and cherry
what kind of caps do north facing usually use
stock caps on north facing boards?
oem
ok
Only issue with the ksc75 is the clip, terribly uncomfortable
That sounds like a you problem. The clip is perfectly fine for me.
You have to bend it a little, but it definitely isn't "uncomfortable"
Honestly, if the KSC75X was in stock, it'd be what I had bought because it has a mic I can yell into.
š¦
finally finished desoldering the greetechs in my carmen
got the first millmax sockets in, hopefully should have all of them soldered by tonight
plateless build soonā¢ļø
anyone got a recommendation for a quad monitor stand that is 3 on the bottom and 1 on top?
Guys is the gk61s from amazon good or should i get the one from banggood?
if you want a 60% then get a kemove snowfox instead
Hello
audio tips necessary
millmaxing a pcb that was desoldered is not fun
hey does anyone know a good site thats not too expensive to buy gateron silver switches? im having trouble deciding on whether or not i should get the gk61 in white with silvers for about $90 or the rk61 in white with red switches which i can replace with silvers later for 55.24
the problem is, is that idk if i should buy the gk61 or if it would be better and cheaper to get the rk61 and buy silvers later\
no, but the womier k66 is at the same price but comes with pcb that doesn't break so easily and is south facing
that's gonna take a more than a whole day of sucking
unless u have glarses gun but that' p expensive
if it doesn't and it's dirt cheap then it's oem 
all i know them as are gateron optical silvers
they could be called speed silvers but im not sure
anything that's not cherry
@viscid shaleany reason you want those switches specifically?
speed (insert gold/bronze/silver) is pretty vague
like the gateron optical silent silvers?
because theyre the fastest i can afford and they sound really good compared to the fake mechanical blues im currently using
what
?
speedswitch =/= faster
i didnt say that
welp what do u mean by "fastest" then
learn to read
they have a faster actuation point and response time
but back to the question though, does anyone know where i can get switches that arent overpriced or whether or not i should buy the gk61/rk61
but yeah lower actuation distance switches hardly make a difference if the travel is the same
unless you don't bottom out while typing
yeah the main reason is just because i like how they sound and feel tbh
Have you already tried them?
i was originally going with reds but then i decided on yellows, then decided on silvers
gk61 is kinda meh but at elast its a better buy than the gk kits kek
haven't heard rk to sound anywhere decent
even modded
the closest ive gotten to trying them is opening a box at bestbuy, clicking the keys a few times then putting it back
I really doubt bestbuy would have optical silver switches
they have speed silvers
maybe you are getting optical silvers confused for cherry MX speed silvers
so it was the closest i can get
no
thats not why
or kailh speeds
im getting them because ive seen lots of reviews and sound tests on youtube and i genuinely really like them
hmmm sure
Because gateron optical silvers are basically the same exact switch as a red
except a lower actuation distance
but the travel is still the same so it hardly matters
yeah but as i said before, i like the sound of silvers a lot better and the feel of them
no
ktt is the manufacturer so expect it to be tight af and be smooth already stock
I mean they are basically the same exact switch but im pretty sure the silver one has a longer pole for the actuation distance
if there is any difference in sound chances are it's just because they are 2 different keyboards
^
not all keyboards sound the same
correct
keycaps, switches, plate material, even the case can drastically change the sound of a switch
but none of this answers my question though
its fine
any reason you are going for optical switches in particular
but tbh most switches that's not from zealpc or is not drop holy panda, it's not overpriced
basically im wanting the gk61 in white with gateron silvers for about 90 but the rk61 is hot swappable as well and i could get it in white with reds for 55.24 and replace the switches by buying silvers later, my problem is price and also im not sure whether or not to go with the rk61 or gk61
Well the first question is why do u want silvers
i mean technically it costs more money to make the frankenswitches so i mean
optical
at least i think it does
Also if you can find one get an sk61
optical silvers is weird
because i like the sound and feel of them a lot better than my fake blues im currently using and i feel it would help me in gaming
its same travel but shorter actuation distance
But
Why would you want optical
cheap š¤·āāļø
uh first off no it wouldnt lol
not mine tho kek
As someone who games way too much
It doesnāt do anything
unless you hardly press down the keys then its not gonna matter
yeah ik but like i said i like the sound and feel a lot better
not rly even ur blues can make u a pro
What specifically about the sound and feel
they'll make u tilt more often tho lol
they sound really good imo and the feel is something id like a lot more when gaming
Whatās
The feel
yes but like what about the feel
like the smoothness, the actuation, the travel,
etc
i just like how they feel compared to other switches
broš
so do you just want silvers because they are silver
My dude if you want to get silvers go for it
Get a gk
But imho, youāre making a very bad choice
then what else are you saying i should do
but thats what i want
Get different switches
But I canāt recommend them unless I know what you like abt silvers
"faster" switches is basically a big gimmick
Then get them lmao
optical switches has the least upgradability
Iām saying you shouldnāt
But if you want to then go for it
u can't put mechanical switches to it
what switches do you think would be better at an affordable price
Actually not just me we all are lmao
depends what you call affordable
lets just say it takes me like 3 months to save up like 40-50 dollars
Ok
akko cs matcha green/rose reds, ks-3 yellow/black,
Yeah you might like rose reds since theyāre so light
would they work with the gk61
no
then what keyboard do i get
just get a keychron c1
idk what that is
Itās a TKL by keychron
then google it
rk61 isn't hotswappable and gk is optical. swapping optical switches is not worth it
If you want small form factor look into Royal Kludge
Iāve heard some good things about their boards
why should i get this keyboard
Build quality
Upgradability
Price
coz its cheap and is hotswappable
kek
is there a 60 percent version of it
not yet
Not for cheap
oh
and I mean i've kinda put the reasoning for you wanting silver switches between
A- you like the sound
so you guys are saying i should get rose red switches and a keychron c1?
u can
Or a 60% keyboard from the brand Iāve mentioned above
But if you really truly enjoy the silvers then just go for it
yeah but i dont want reds
yes but why
So it is because theyāre silver color then
no
they are basically the same exact switch as the silver ones you wanted so badly
its not because of their color
are they cheaper
lol idk
yes
they cheap idk how cheap silvers are
You canāt buy silvers individually I donāt think
So technically yes
could someone send me a link to a site i can buy them off of
Yeah way cheaper
Amazon my guy
Keychron C1 Mechanical Keyboard. Tenkeyless Layout. Connects via wired type-c cable and users can hot swap every switch in seconds with the hot-swappable version. Compatible with Mac, Windows, iOS, Android, Linux. Gateron Switches. 15+ RGB Backlight
Theyāre cheap as hell on Amazon
keep in mind ordering from them got like 20$ shipping
hey anyone know anything about monitor mounts?
do i just search "rose red switches"?
20 cents per piece 
Akko CS Rose Red
akko cs switches
oh my god
wait
lmao
epomaker/akko has a listing on amazon?
oh
lol
the rose reds im finding are 13.99 for 45 pieces
yes
so do i have to buy it twice?
yes
thats only 90 pieces though
I mean you dont need to
45 is more than enough for the switches you are gonna be using the most
ok i'll look at keyboards on royal kludge and epomaker and see if i can find any cheap enough
any suggestions?
ok i have 3 keyboard options
the keychron c1, the ROYAL KLUDGE Sink87G 87 Keys, or the epomaker sk87
do any of these work with rose reds and if so which should i get
if it says "hotswappable" and doesn't come with outemu switches, it'll work
ok i just realized i dont think the royal kludge one says hot swappable
let me check the other two
ok the epomaker one says hotswappable only with gateron switches
and the keychron has a "keychron mechanical hot swappable" and "gateron hot swappable" option
so should i go with the epomaker or keychron
which keyboard should i go with and if i go with the keychron keyboard do i select the gateron hot swappable or keychron mechanical hot swappable
mechanical hotswappable
ok so i should go with the keychron then?
yea sure
ok thank you
oh i cant get it, its unavailable
so will rose reds work in any mechanical hotswap keyboard?
yes
are there any other keyboard you can recommend becaues i think the keychron c1 is gonna be out of stock for a while
only c1 alternative imo is the sk87
that also seems to be out of stock
so i guess ill have to wait for the keychron to come back
are you in the US by any chance?
That's actually not true. That Keychron Hotswappable option is for Keychron's Optical switches. And Otemu Hotswap sockets are only for Otemu Switches.
not if u circumcise the longer copper pin
...
yea like i didn't specify to them the "mechanical hotswappable" thing?
Yes I am
amazon has some if not all curently retailed keychron boards
uh no keychron has their own mechanic switches
That's what I was saying... Some of Keychron's boards have a special Hotswap option for their own Optical switches.
The switches aren't pure mechanical last I checked. they are Opto-mech
Just like Razer's new switches.
dunno how this dude got 90 of these, but he's even selling em for realistic prices
this is a record that historically goes for 200-350 USD sooo
Time to buy one
Board: F1-8x Navy by Geonworks
Switches: Cherry MX Hyperglide Blacks 204g0 lubed and deskey filmed, 68g sprit progressive springs
Keycaps: Hammerworks CRP R3 Xerox 6001
Hear dem cherries poppin!

forgot skiptrace cant be told that hes wrong
Finally decided to splurge and replace my mic with a Samson Q2U
nice
neat
Yeah, now I can actually use headphones that aren't just my Blackshark V2 for Gaming
wish they did the q9u better
Ye
should i buy the drop carina
Probably not
Drop products aren't the greatest.
oh ok
In the market for new speakers. Considering the Logitech G560 or Z625.
Thoughts?
Might as well just buy good headphones at that point.
Those speaker sets are not worth the money.
If you want speakers be prepared to buy an Amplifier and good non-amplified speakers to plug into the amp.
best set of PC speakers I ever had were my Altec Lansings, long long out of date now :/
Yeah, I had a really good pair of Altec Lansings at one point in time.
Wife has them now
Klipsch makes an "ok" 2.1 set but for the price you could just get better headphones.
I think it's called the ProMedia 2.1
If I ever get an Amplifier and speaker setup for my eventual living room. It will be all Klipsch speakers.
Another good one to consider is Definitive Audio, I have their center speaker and it's great. Equal to or slightly better than Klipsch
But Klipsch has spun copper cones so they win by default.
Yeah those cones look gorgeous.
i lost
Dunno if this counts as a peripheral, but anyone know any good wifi cards? I cant do ethernet, and the one that came in my PC i dont think is doing to well of a job (getting .07 mb/s upload speed while i get 25mb/s on any other device). Gigabyte b460m motherboard, current wifi card is in the m.2 slot
Try repositioning them, sounds like an interference issue to me
Try them horizontal instead of vertical and spread them apart
So they like a T
No need to shut down PC
horizontal okay
Do it with it on so you can see signal strength
so i have them like a T and that seemed to make it exponentially worse
im gonna try pointing them towards the router
im using speedtest.net, is that reliable enough?
Mmm, no
What you need to do is right click the WiFi icon and choose Open Network and Conection settings
Then click Change Adapter options
Then right click your WiFi and choose Status
It will have a live signal quality you can watch while you move things around
okay i see that
Also, if there's anything between you and the router, that will affect it as well
what im mainly concerned with though is upload speed, as I stream on twitch and recently i havent been able to stream at about 3000 bitrate
yeah theres a few walls and a closet in the way
but i cant do anything about it
Get the signal strength the best then try again
okay so after fiddling with the antennae it has increased everything dramatically
Good!
old as post but thts lit
The sound is amazing as well and you can bi-amp them 
Combine that with my Klipsch 12" sub and Definitive audio center speaker it's your very own movie theater
It ain't cheap tho
I just lubed my first switch and it is night and day difference between the normal and lubed
Those towers are $500 each O.o
lub
thts reasonable
what switch?
ks3 gat yellow
yo serious
opto?
question
Optical
whats the difference of a opt switch
lazer
There's a plunger that breaks an optical beam built into the board itself
wtf
So the switch doesn't have any electronics in it
lazer switch
ohh i aww
see*
is there any new exciting laptops besides the m1 macbook or g14
Nit that i know of
what's the g14
zephyrus g14
what's special about that one
it's neat
also might not be the g15 lance tryna talk about
g14 was last year
but anyways, this is why
48 GB ram wat
its prolly 16gb soldered to the board as a minimum plus an additional 16 or 32gb sodimm
what i would expect
Ahhh, that makes sense
Ayo vintage congrats on full mod
TY
hey get that stuff out of keyboard and headphone channel @daring zenith
@tight pulsar don't worry I'll invade slowly, and integrate headfone and keeb knowledge too
well just opened all my switches and will probably be able to lube them on Saturday
dew em good
I feel I did good on the first one and that one I lubed the spring manually instead of bag lubing as it was only one
yeah which is why I am bag lubing because I don't have that type of patience
yeye
@sly warren audio science review for IEMagni out, but he doesn't actually use the low gain 
Yes
hm asgard 3 or that
what are you trying to power
sundaras
anything in the $100+ realm will do it fine
although 37ohm is a bit on the lower side, it might like "cleaner" amplification like the iemagni claims
Opinions on Schitt Hel for a cheap dac with Mic Input
mic input severely limits your options sooo
Yes I understand
