EeveeTechTips got a reaction from Timmy-P in Best Mechanical Keyboard?
Filco keyboards BTW are on sale at ncix ($40 off with a coupon on filco keyboards)

EeveeTechTips got a reaction from STRMfrmXMN in are mechanical keyboards really necessary for gaming or are they just a trend?
Not even close to being necessary. Its a luxury, fun and one of those things people just have to try for themselves.

EeveeTechTips got a reaction from Jgeorge610 in Is AMD fx a good cpu for gaming?
Yeah its good enough for sure. People jump on AMD hate bandwagon without really trying one themselves seeing things from reviews and benchmark scores and what not. I've had 0 problem with my fx-8310 @ 4.5 GHz so far. Every game runs smoothly on high settings.

EeveeTechTips got a reaction from Ahimoth in Triple monitor Ips recommendations?
Try Dell S2415H the monitor is gorgeous. And when it went on sale on blackfriday it was going for $160 a piece.
24 inch 1080p 60hz Glossy ips with the thinnest bezel with vesa mount capability. Perfect for triple monitor set up IMO

EeveeTechTips reacted to Ahimoth in Triple monitor Ips recommendations?
Multiple 24" panels are a pretty decent option. 1080p gaming at 27" is a bit of a waste of money right now.
What Evee suggested is pretty spot on. At a budget of $840, the S2415H is well under at $190 USD per monitor for a total of $570, allowing you to purchase something extra like a 1+3 ergo-tech desk stand. If I were in the USA right now, that would seriously be a set up I'd consider.

Just feeling wise I liked my old logitech performance mx mouse the best. Its a bit heavy and big.

I loved that you used someone's concept of an H340 instead of an actual S340.
