I know, right?

I only use wireless mice (and keyboards too) now and they never move off my desks. I do use my older broken wireless g403 with my laptop, but that always stays in my bag to use with my laptop

Yes you have. Don't be like that. People use wireless mice for things like couch productivity or gaming. Using a lap board with a wireless keyboard and mice is much better.

Which contradicts my "dumb" reply on wireless G502

I just don't see wireless being an extraordinary thing for gaming for the G502 but I would think it would be great as a productivity mouse and doing things like couch play.

I like the shape of those.

So what's y'all's perfect mouse if you could combine anything?

EC2B shape
Rubberized texture
Holes like Finalmouse (like how it keeps my hands cool and provides nice grip)
G Pro wireless tech
Deathadder elite buttons
Some way to add sniper button and tilt wheels along with a free spinning wheel that doesn't have to go as long as the g502 to save weight
On mouse DPI and Polling rate buttons on bottom
Software for fine tuning
Weight<80

I bought some monitors(speakers) like those back in 2012 from Amazon. Well Amazon sent me 2 in the mail but only charged me for one. Crazy.

One of the monitors caught fire. Believe they fixed the issue with a revision in 2013-2014. I had a slightly different model. The ones like 1 step above those but think it was an issue for that one too.

If you Google, whichever side had the power supply in it which powered to the monitor is the one which would catch fire.

Why? If you are looking to overclock like a madman, all the new stuff has them.

My 8700k at 5Ghz runs pretty cool on a liquid cooled h100

Theres 2 of them here in the Phoenix area.

Lately, they've been doing a 20% off coupon deal on certain items in store.

GPUs, CPUs, Apple stuff, and other things are discounted by 10% with the coupon.

The prices are ridiculous, but they are very good with pricematching, so I've been able to get most of my PC components from them.

Oddly enough, they don't have any CPUs in stock except for the 7920X and the 2700x.

Even more odder, they have a shite ton of RTX GPUs in store.

I didn't know you stayed in Pheonix.

My maternal side of the family is from Gilbert. I love going out away from the pollution as a kid to experience the desert.

Yep, been out here for about 4 years now. Phoenix is a great place to live, if you can get through the summer.

Plus, during the summer, you can just go up to Flagstaff every weekend to get away from the heat.
