Thanks! It was a pretty easy, on the fly thing but it did turn out well. I wouldnt like the finish on a mouse or anything but it feels fine on the edges.

I also would've had to send the email to search for the onscreen keyboard anyways because I am not aware of how to get to it through the windows button.

Also, the spray paint feels surprisingly good and close to the original bottom plastic, not quite as soft as the top finish but still good. I have long finders anyways so my hands almost never touched the finish anyways.

I should've done that, but now I get the added bonus of my keyboard smelling like coffe And I didn't have any iso-alcohol

So this morning, I spilled this ENTIRE MUG full of hard worked for french press coffee, which I wanted to drink so bad, all over my Black Widow Ultimate (No never got the chroma sadly) Anyways, the whole cup went into this keyboard. I quickly unplugged it after spam typing for a second with rage (even tho no characters showed up). So I cleaned off my desk (which is a playing card table, cause college) and thankfully nothing else got soaked in this delicious coffee. Anyways It wasn't working, like anyone would do, it took it apart voiding the warranty. My fingers are still raw from prying up all the keys. So after i got it stripped to just the green metal and PCB I set it up to a fan to dry, with low expectations. I had to find a way to kill time and since my keyboard was already apart, I figured I'd clean it, shout out to Slim for that video! (which I had to search for by emailing the alphabet from my phone to myself then copy pasting the letters cause screw on screen keyboard). So after that I saw the from...Just sitting there....Alone.... So with more time to spare, I walked around the block to the Lowe's right by my house, picked up some spray paint, And went at it. I like the look, this isn't going on here for your approval just so someone else can do it with a cool idea too. So reassembled the keyboard after the paint and PCB dried, and somehow it works. Here you go, the picture of my finished and working "beauty." Original / Picture from the internet (didn't take before picture cause I wasn't expecting to spill coffee all over it) Now (sorry for the LG G3 camera and the mess) The Perp (yes that is the coffee I was so dearly looking forward to drinking, The picture was taken for snapchat and after it spilled I saved it from my story.) P.S. I am colorblind, I chose blue cause my H440 is blue (I think) I would LOVE to see other people do fun stuff like this. I will try to respond ASAP if anyone has any questions, thanks!

I was looking online and i heard if you have this in bloat ware to turn it off, and sort of HP coolsense, or the brand equivalent of that makes temps a lot better. Maybe try that too?

WOW thank you, I was looking at one from a Microcenter near me, same thing but 80 dollars more, thanks!

Thanks a lot! Still not sure if i will get AMD or not but it is good to know it is a legitimate option!

So i have been laptop shopping, and as a budget oriented college student, I am thinking refurbished (in which usually the "iffiest" part would be the HDD), while replacing it with more RAM and giving it an SSD. A lot of the budget laptops have AMD CPUs and I was wondering if anyone had experience with if these are any good. I know AMD usually does pretty well in processing but I am kinda worried about the longevity and thermal of it. I am still looking around the internet, but there isn't a lot of content about it, probably because no one buys the damn AMD laptops haha. Thanks

I need help. I recently got a r9 280x gigabyte windforce and i cant play games and watch youtube. I thought at first it was too intense with BF4 and youtube but it even happens with hearthston and youtube it plays for like 30 seconds then just black screens and craps itself. Please help me with a fix for this....BTW Most recent drivers and sttuff and its with a 4690k and 8 gb ram so neither of those should be the problem. PLEASE HELP

REVIEW ISPs haha which ones give best connection and least throttling.... guess its not really possible but it would be worth a laugh
