What about Bose Soundlink around ear wireless?
-
Hey guys, I am looking for a new pair of headphones. I would be using them for hearing music while traveling (to school, vacation...), but also for some sports, like some lifting and maybe seldom some running. I prefer over- and on ear headphones over the in ear ones. But because of using them for some sports I would really want them to be wireless. I would also be using them either from an IPad or from my Pc, so wireless would really be good. I have gotten recommended the Sony xb950bt, but I heard that it falls off pretty easy and that wouldn't be good during workouts. The only thing I really otherwise found was the beats solo 2 wireless or the studio wireless. (I know that many ppl dislike beats a lot, but they have really gotten better the past few years, so they are considerable now) But the studios are a little expensive. My price range is up to ca 220 euro. I would mainly be listening to electro, Pop, hip hop. So what would you guys recommend? Thanks in advance

So I am thinking of upgrading my system. I will probably upgrade my mobo to z170, cpu to i5 6600k, ddr4 ram... I also thought this would be a good moment to get a new case, first I was thinking of the Phanteks enthoo luxe. BUT then I saw a post of someone who built his Pc on some wooden planks and hanged that on a wall. I was also thinking of something similar, maybe just something more open. Would this be a bad idea? Advantages/disadvantages? Do you guys think this will be hard to do or fairly easy? What do you guys think. My other specs: Case: Bitfenix Shinobi bf4 edition Gpu: Msi gtx 970 Cpu: amd fx 8350 Cooler: noctua nh-d14 16 gb ddr3 ram Psu: bequiet 600w Samsung 250 gb ssd, 2 terabyte hdd Ps: it is for gaming

Advice for new motherboard, cpu, ram
finnigen replied to finnigen's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Well yes I'm using it for gaming, but I don't want to have to buy another new system in a few years, therefore I want to upgrade to ddr4 ram now, because I think it will probably soon be required in some games. -
So I was thinking about upgrading my mobo, cup and ram to ddr4. So I found this: http://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/16GB-G-Skill-RipJaws-V-rot-DDR4-2800-DIMM-CL15-Dual-Kit_1011643.html http://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/Intel-Core-i7-6700K-4x-4-00GHz-So-1151-WOF_1010017.html http://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/Asus-Z170-Pro-Gaming-Intel-Z170-So-1151-Dual-Channel-DDR4-ATX-Retail_1009409.html A skylake i7 6700k, asus z170 pro gaming and 16 gb g skill ddr4 ram. What do you guys think about this and the price? Would you rather recommend something else, like for example this ram: http://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/16GB-Corsair-Vengeance-LPX-schwarz-DDR4-2666-DIMM-CL15-Quad-Kit_973522.html Or another better z170 like the z170a? If you realize something isn't compatible please tell me. I will maybe also buy a new case like a phantekks entho pro or something like that. Would my psu still be good enough? I am using it for gaming, but I would like it to be as "futureproof" as possible, therefore the ddr4 ram.

Need advice for system upgrade
finnigen replied to finnigen's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
ok thanks a lot for the long and in depth answer, but I'm a little confused which taxes you mean? -
Hey, so I have bought ny Pc a few years ago. I'm thinking of upgrading it, but I ain't sure if it rly is worth it doing it now. If I would upgrade I would want to have ddr4 ram. So i also have to upgrade my motherboard, cpu and ram at once. I would probably also buy a new better case. I stumbled apon this deal browsing for a short while. https://www.komplett.dk/product/823789/hardware/saml-selv-pakkelsninger/opgraderingspakker/opgraderingspakke-core-i7-5820k# (I live in Denmark) it's a little over 800 euro. I wouldn't need the air cooler in the bundle. So I compared this to a few other sites and it seemed pretty cheap. Am I right? What do you guys think about this? Is it a good deal? Or maybe a little to overkill? Or would you rather wait? (It would be for gaming) My specs: Case: Bitfenix Shinobi bf4 edition Gpu: Mai gtx 970 Cpu: amd fx 8350 Cooler: noctua nh-d14 16 gb ddr3 ram Psu: bequiet 600w Samsung 250 gb ssd, 2 terabyte hdd

Hey I am looking for a new fitness tracker/smart band. My jawbone up 24 just gave up on me so I decided to look for a new one. I would prefer one with a screen or another way to see the time, my activity... Directly off the band. Something like the Fitbit charge hr, Nike fuelband se, (surge), vivofit... I am 16 years old and am interested in mid distance running and I am doing this for quite a while now. But I don't really like having a lot of band, watches etc on my arms whilst running. But I still need something to see how fast I am running and stuff like that. For that I have another garmin running watch. So having another big watch on my other hand wouldn't be very nice. It would be best to have a good fast and easy usable stopwatch on the band to see my lap times whilst running intervals. I also really like the point system on the Nike fuelband se. Features like music play or other things were I need my phone are unnecessary, because I never run with my phone. I only sync the data to an iPad in the evening or so. Which band would you guys recommend for me? Thanks in advance.

The latest hits (; mainly pop/hip hop, some electronic... No rock, country, or classic...

Hey guys, I recently began hearing some more music again. So I thought it would be time for some new headphones. I was always amazed of an example in a near store. I think their are called Bose Soundtrue around ear. But I don't really know too much about headphones. I would use them for almost only music (got some others for gaming...). I would probably hear the most from an iPad or another iOS/(maybe android) device and only seldom on my PCI. My budget is up to 190 euro(210$). I would also prefer around ear headphones. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance

I realized that always when my brother was in his room, the Internet got bad. So I asked him to switch the Internet off to test if it is him who is creating the problem. And guess what, seconds after him switching my ping got back to 21 m/s. He was probably streaming from a bad website or something. Thank you everyone for answering and helping me.

Ever considered gtx 970 sli or single? Beats the r9 290x.

I have done a speed test both wireless and wired. For example when I am pinging Google the average m/s is around 1060 and a speed the average download and upload speed on my iPad is around 0.3

Of course

Yesterday evening my internet connection suddently got extremely bad. I was playing black ops 2 and suddently got a 999 ping and couldn't play anymore. Since now it hasn't changed. I am connected with an Ethernet cable. But all other devices in the house do also have extremely bad connection. Has anybody any idea what and why this is and how I can fix it?

Of course I wanted to use my current monitor as secondry, but I did only lend it from my brother and he wants it back. (Sorry for not mentioning before), I live in Denmark, shipping would be great from Germany (Amazon.de) or webhallen.com/komplett.com

Hello I want to swap my old monitor out for this one: http://www.webhallen.com/dk-da/computere_og_tilbehor/199847-aoc_g2460pg_24_full_hd-1ms-dp-144hz-3_x_usb-hoj_och_sankbar-g-sync I know it is AOC and not asus or another very high tier brand. Me too was concerned about this until I saw this thread were it finished as best: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/top-best-computer-monitors,3917.html So I think it look fairly good and there is no other g-sync monitor at this price point. So my real question is that I want to buy a second monitor, I will not really use it for gaming. I will for example maybe manage my music on this one or go on a wiki while I game on the other one. Also I do a little of level design, were there never really can be too much screen space. The second monitor should be nothing fancy, no g-sync or other expensive features. Does anybody have some recommendations? My price range is around 130 euro, I would maybe stretch it to 150 if something would be really impressive. The size should be 24 inch. Thanks in advance.

Any recommendations?

So you would give 2 times the price for an asus or dell....Because I would like to buy dell or asus, but I do not have the money ) :
-
I know AOC isn't the highest tier brand, but look at that price!!!! The next cheapest gsync monitor would be the double of the price of AOC's monitor. Do you have some other recommendations? What are your concerns about AOC?

Hello, I have a very old 27' monitor (ca 7+ years), so I decided to buy a new one: http://www.webhallen.com/dk-da/computere_og_tilbehor/199847-aoc_g2460pg_24_full_hd-1ms-dp-144hz-3_x_usb-hoj_och_sankbar-g-sync Originally I thought I could use my old monitor as a second monitor, but then I found out that my brother who rent it to me would like to have it back. I would only use the gsync monitor for gaming. So my question is should I buy this gsync monitor and then just a cheap other monitor or two of the same okay monitors or should I only buy the gsync monitor? ( I would use them to mainly game on the one and have a wiki or my music on the other one, I also do some level design, were some more screen space could always help) My Specs: Amd fx 8350 With a noctua nh-d14 Msi gtx 970 overclocked a little 16 gb ddr3 ram Asus m5a97 r2.0 4 case fans Samsung 250gb ssd 2 terabyte hdd Be quiet 600w 80 silver plus Bitfenix Shinobi

No I am not doing any video editing. One reason for the thoughts of upgrading was like you already said that the amd processor bottlenecks my gpu. And right now I am not experiencing any real performance issues. But I am planning on buying a second monitor. I am not sure if It is going to drop my performance by a lot (one 24 inch gsync, one 27inch monitor).And you can never have enough performance ( ;

Right now I have an AMD fx 8350 as processior, because of my grx 970 I thought it was time for an upgrade. So I thought I could just buy a intel 4790k. But because of the release of ddr4 ram it would maybe make sense to buy a ddr4 ram compatible cpu and because sometime in the future I would naybe also want to sli I would maybe also need a new Motherboard. So I have two options: 1. I buy a 4790k now (and maybe buy a z97 now or in the future). 2. Or I would wait and gather some more money and buy a x99, ddr4 ram and a 5820k (or other better new released stuff) later on. What would you reconmend me to do?

I am mainly using it for gaming. If I get 144 fps depends on the game, so yes in some I do and I do generally not play at ultra settings. But the meaning of g-sync is that I do NOT need 144 fps, because there is no tearing more, because it syncs every frame to the frames of the monitor. (Btw my 27 inch screen is 1200p.)

I have a pretty old Dell monitor (ca 6 years). So I decided to buy a new one. I found this deal which looked very good to me: http://www.webhallen.com/dk-da/computere_og_tilbehor/199847-aoc_g2460pg_24_full_hd-1ms-dp-144hz-3_x_usb-hoj_och_sankbar-g-sync. Does anybody know this monitor and recommend it? But now to my main question, This monitor is 24 inch, but my old monitor is 27 inch. But when I now already have a monitor I could just use it as second monitor. For example looking things up on a wiki or other stuff. Can I pare it with the g-sync monitor and would you guys recommend it? Or is g-sync unnesesairy and I should rather buy another 27 inch? (The dell has a refresh rate of 60hz) (My specs: Amd fx 8350 With a noctua nh-d14 Msi gtx 970 overclocked a little 16 gb ddr3 ram Asus m5a97 r2.0 4 case fans Samsung 250gb ssd 2 terabyte hdd Be quiet 600w 80 silver plus Bitfenix Shinobi)
