Gave coolermaster a shot and the stabilizers were shite. Felt like my Corsair.

They are probably the same keyboard.

Just like only 2 companies make panels, same goes for peripherals. A lot of that shtt is the exact same product. Just in a different wrapping.

It's in the production though. They both use cherry parts but it's the implementation of them.

Ducky is a good bit tighter in tolerance.

Almost got a Leopold TKL. Heard they were really good. Only reason I didn't get it was because it had zero lighting. I play in the dark sometimes and like a little muted light to quickly see the keys. Wanted a white LED Leopold.

$300?



Very close, listed it for $300 and took $250 for it. After countless teenagers lowballing the crap out of me and asking if it does VR and can it play Fortnite at a billion frames a second finally found a good buyer who knows computers himself and bought it to load windows/games for his brother's birthday who is getting into pc gaming. Told him you could drop like a RX580 or RX590 in it and still make it last a few more years easily on modern titles.

Served me well

Damn I would have bought it off you for the $300 haha

My boy spaceranger has been looking for a gaming PC and that would have been a perfect starting point for him

I understand.

Doesn't mean it was off the exact same line. When one didn't meet specs it is binned here, etc. If you would open the boards up they most probably are exactly the same. Maybe not in this case but all those peripherals are nearly the same in most cases. Esp Corsair and Cooolermaster shtt. They usually don't have the design for the whole product. Partial design and then branding.

But I get what you're saying. Sort of, i'm not balls deep into keyboards anymore. Just was bringing up the point that the difference is usually isn't different on a "technical" level, if that is even the correct term. Can't find a way to describe it in text atm.

Nope but it was pretty funny when I was comparing vortex keyboards vs Leopold . Google brought me to the scopes lol.

That 4770k is still fine for a lot of games. A 580 or 590 at 1080p will last him a while

I'm over 40 now, old f**k is right.

I have it, but not sunk any time into it, so can't really say much about it.

Red Dead 2 PC gets approved classification in Australia

They denied it twice then rated it MA 15+. If it wasn't already confirmed it is now.

Oh yeah definitely, the 4770k wasnt really much of any bottleneck in that system, really the 3GB 7950 in modern more demanding titles. Also only DDR3.

I love far cry games. It is fun exploring. I've almost got FC5 100%

RDR2 not so much, yawn.

Edt: Do you enjoy GTA games UH?

I've never been into them, something about Rockstar games don't translate well for me.

So if Sony is releasing the PS5 alongside a PS5 Pro, I wonder how they would beef it up?

Only thing I can think of is the Pro will have the 2020 beefier Navi and the regular will have the 5700 current Navi series.

GTA5 was fun I thought, played through it on PS3/4/PC.

Haven't really followed RDR2 much at all but I'm sure I'll get it on PC when it's like $30.

I can recognize the game as a masterpiece. The SO actually bought me the bundle because I was so pumped to play. So had two Pros for a while.

But it's just boring. Too many cutscenes and the playstyle wasnt enjoyable idk.

The game is a masterpiece though.

It's the Uncharted thing. Too many cutscenes aren't a game. Release a movie instead.
