#

i had my basilisk replaced twice because of scroll wheel failure

#

after the third i just went elsewhere

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:49 AM

#

some how scroll wheel has never broken for me

#

i just don't like the clickers they used for the side tilts

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 12:49 AM

#

Actually still use R.A.T. 7 i have

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:50 AM

#

this mouse has the coil in the mouse pad

#

meaning its insanely light

#

no cables

#

no battery

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 12:50 AM

#

I like my mouses heavy

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:50 AM

#

its not like insanley light

#

but its lighter than most

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 12:50 AM

#

Well... Rat in my case lol

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:51 AM

#

its too bad the tech never really caught on

#

i bought this mouse on a 40 percent sale from its orginal 250 dollar price

#

bet that tells you why it never caught on

#

smile_degtyarev

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 12:51 AM

#

I won the rat on some raffle bs

#

Works and is absolute abomination to look at really

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:52 AM

#

lmao

#

my issue is going to a mouse

#

with out the self charging feature would be so annoying to me

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 12:53 AM

#

Logitech does have wireless charging mouse pad for its wireless mouse as i recall

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:53 AM

#

yah

#

its similiar but not the same like

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 12:53 AM

#

But wireless is ew for me

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:53 AM

#

basically the way it works is

#

wireless is better

#

has been for a while now

#

there is a 70 dollar corsair mouse with lower latency than a wired mouse lol

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 12:54 AM

#

Yeah "oh shit my mosue ran out of battery" middle of the game moments

#

So much better smile_degtyarev

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:54 AM

#

why this mouse is awesome

#

it never does that

#

ever

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 12:54 AM

#

Until the battery itself reaches cycle limit

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:55 AM

#

it has no battery

#

it has a small bank of capacitors that hold roughly 30 seconds of charge

vestal tusk Feb 20, 2025, 12:55 AM

#

Does movement charge the capacitors?

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:55 AM

#

the pad does

vestal tusk Feb 20, 2025, 12:55 AM

#

Based af

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:55 AM

#

the pad has a coil inside it

#

its not wireless charging

#

its like something else

vestal tusk Feb 20, 2025, 12:56 AM

#

Can you buy this mouse anymore ?

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:56 AM

#

nope

vestal tusk Feb 20, 2025, 12:56 AM

#

sadboy

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 12:56 AM

#

Eh ill stick to my wired cyborg rat

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:56 AM

#

this pad will actually kill most regular electronics

#

if you place your phone on it and walked away from it

#

your phone would never turn on again

vestal tusk Feb 20, 2025, 12:56 AM

#

Holy shit haha

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 12:56 AM

#

Probably why they dont sell it anymore

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:56 AM

#

nah

#

it was just because it was expensive

vestal tusk Feb 20, 2025, 12:57 AM

#

Yeah that's like premium tier pricing

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:57 AM

#

it was 250 bux

#

when it was new

#

i got it on a 40 percent off sale

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 12:57 AM

#

oh yeah no way id pay that

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:57 AM

#

when i was like 15 i read about the tech and was like

#

i need that

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 12:58 AM

#

I wouldnt even pay 60€ for a mouse tbh

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:58 AM

#

draw backs are

#

it only works on the mouse pad

#

and roughly with in the inner 85 percent of it

#

so you have to remember not to take it off the center too long or it will die

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 12:59 AM

#

lol

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 12:59 AM

#

in theory though you could make your own

vestal tusk Feb 20, 2025, 12:59 AM

#

I need to upgrade my mouse ngl I got a basic af Logitech wired mouse

#

Need one with side buttons

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 1:00 AM

#

I have actually never used side buttons for anything

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:00 AM

#

only a few good photos but this is whats inside

#

if you made your own version of that

#

you could make a bigger mouse pad

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 1:00 AM

#

Macros are forbidden more or less all games so i dont see the point

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:01 AM

#

i use the buttons

#

to use less hand movements

vestal tusk Feb 20, 2025, 1:01 AM

#

pure ibex only a few good photos but this is whats inside

This goes hard

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 1:01 AM

#

Only useful feature i find is the wheel unlock and on fly DPI swap

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:01 AM

#

moving my thumb is faster than moving my whole hand on the keyboard side

#

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:06 AM

#

got amazing reviews worth giving it a try at least

hard juniper Feb 20, 2025, 1:06 AM

#

what i want is a good wireless mouse with lots of buttons and functionality
but those don't seem to exist yet

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:06 AM

#

they do

#

they are keypad mice

#

i had one

#

i liked it shrugm

hard juniper Feb 20, 2025, 1:06 AM

#

keypad mice are ugly and uncomfortable though

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:06 AM

#

not really

#

well

hard juniper Feb 20, 2025, 1:07 AM

#

clunkier than the alternatives

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:07 AM

#

thats highly subjective so

hard juniper Feb 20, 2025, 1:07 AM

#

the basilisk and g502 are the only ones with the level of functionality i want. Razer is built like shit and logitech looks like shit

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:07 AM

#

but i agree

#

my hyperflux has really 4 buttons

#

realistically 2

hard juniper Feb 20, 2025, 1:08 AM

#

so i got the swiftpoint z2, which is a massive upgrade, but it's still wired. Kinda sucks now that i want a wireless mouse i can't find any that actually suit me

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:08 AM

#

extra ones

#

i want this mouse to have like 2 or 4 more buttons

#

just big thumb buttons

hard juniper Feb 20, 2025, 1:08 AM

#

never too many buttons

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:08 AM

#

my set up for playing battlebit was insane

#

lmfao

hard juniper Feb 20, 2025, 1:08 AM

#

https://www.swiftpoint.co.uk/products/gaming-mice-swiftpoint-z2 this is peak engineering

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:08 AM

#

so razer has this thing called

#

hypershift

#

where if you hold a button on the mouse it can make the other buttons do other stuff

hard juniper Feb 20, 2025, 1:09 AM

#

oh yeah i remember that

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:09 AM

#

so id use that to enable sniper zeroing controls

#

here let me just look what i had

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 1:10 AM

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:11 AM

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 1:18 AM

#

they cant give you a card they don't have

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 1:22 AM

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:22 AM

Not really my problem lol

pure ibex Feb 20, 2025, 1:22 AM

#

i mean yah but

#

if they dont have enough they gotta refund just saying

coarse linden Feb 20, 2025, 1:23 AM

Refund is last option and consumer needs to consent to it in these cases

is it a good idea to lock stalker 2's fps to 60 even though my monitors refresh rate is 144?

vestal tusk Feb 20, 2025, 5:50 PM

jovial sage is it a good idea to lock stalker 2's fps to 60 even though my monitors refresh ...

I'd lock it to whatever fps is stable and consistent for you tbh

#

For example I lock modded new vegas to 59 fps due to havoc physics potential craziness at high fps and I run a 165hz monitor and it's not bad

tawny thicket Feb 21, 2025, 12:34 PM

pure ibex It blasts ions into the surface of wafers carving out the design of the chip

so most thats the thing that adds all the transistors and stuff

pure ibex Feb 21, 2025, 12:34 PM

#

This process is actually what determines the quality of each chip

#

Depending on how close the mix is to the perfect spec

#

Changing how much internal resistance the transistors have

#

Which impacts how much heat a given voltage generates

#

And also how stable a part is

#

The more perfect the mix the lower the voltage

#

And the lower the heat

Pc gaming is dead man,

A goddam Mac mini with edu discount is cheaper than my goddam 9800X3D

#

it has become a hobby of the 1th percent, if anything, it is a declining market in term of creativity

I regret my life so much

Every single component in my pc is individually more expensive than a Mac mini M4 with edu discount. I don’t have much time to enjoy gaming anymore.

Nvidia 50 series is the biggest shit show and nobody should buy those cards 0.01$ over msrp.
You need to be stupid to give a company that goes in your back door👉🏻👌🏼 money.

Missing Rops, driver issues, hardware issues, melting cables, artificial pricing, fake msrp and worst performance gen on gen ever in the semiconductor Industry.

If u want those tactics to persist buy in to Nvidia. Fact is u don’t need to buy new GPUs just because the game runs 30fps. That’s the devs fault but that’s another story.

vestal tusk Fr I'm in the same boat I got a 4070ti nothing in the 50xx interests me enough t...

I'm looking at a 4070ti myself, as that's about the max my rig will be able to handle power and thermals wise. Not to mention physical space!
(I've got an intel NUC12 extreme, which only supports 2 slot cards. Awesome little rig, but bloody annoying with GPUs)

Though unfortunately, I've got massive budget problems having just moved country and having to stop all unnecessary spending for the near future. 😦

RN, I've got my trusty old 1060 (which I've had since it released xD).
My laptop has a 3060, which is what I run stalker on, but it's a pain to set up and take down all the time, so I basically stopped playing stalker for a while.

#

polar mountain Feb 22, 2025, 1:16 PM

#

I paid 1230 for 5070ti

#

19% vat

hard juniper Feb 22, 2025, 1:18 PM

#

#

vestal tusk goddamn lol thats 5386 CAD

yeah last time i bought a card near launch at msrp was the 1060

#

over here the prices have been ridiculous and i've stayed one gen behind

vestal tusk Feb 22, 2025, 1:24 PM

#

i dont blame you honestly

#

i might not even upgrade until the 70 series

#

but AMD and potentially intel has my eye if they keep cooking

polar mountain Feb 22, 2025, 1:25 PM

#

plucky quail Too much

I know

vestal tusk Feb 22, 2025, 1:25 PM

#

the price to preformance jump from 4070ti to 5070ti is not appealing to me tbh

hard juniper Feb 22, 2025, 1:27 PM

#

yeah i don't see why anyone should upgrade if they have a 40 card tbh

polar mountain Feb 22, 2025, 1:28 PM

I don’t get how Radeon is so different to ryzen team. Like ryzen did there way didn’t look at intel made there prices even if intel had the better product. And just in 3 gen they beat intel.
Radeon doesn’t change and doesn’t do there thing.
Just copy Nvidia to get profit

Both are somehow 1 company

yeah, its weird
maybe Lisa [(or insert person in charge)] is behind RYZEN and then Scott was behind RADEON (now Jack)
and they had different concepts of competing

polar mountain Feb 22, 2025, 1:48 PM

#

tawny thicket why did you upgrade ? (also **which **one did you upgrade?)

plucky quail Feb 22, 2025, 1:50 PM

tawny thicket Feb 22, 2025, 1:51 PM

plucky quail Feb 22, 2025, 1:55 PM

That you only got 150fps in bo6 with low is not normal

vestal tusk Feb 22, 2025, 1:55 PM

feels like there is an issue somewhere else

polar mountain Feb 22, 2025, 1:55 PM
