    TechnoBacon got a reaction from The Pizza Thief in Razer H440 or 760t   
    My brother has a h440, I have a 760t. Ive built them both so I can definetely give you the best answer. The 760t is practical as fuck and has a monster seize, its plastic, but not plasticy. The window is beautiful, but you need to get a fully modular psu to hide all the cables. The h440 is harder to build in, but is solid as fuck and blocks out sound quite well compared to the h440 I would say the 760t suits more of a performance build were accesibility and size matters more than a quiet build
    Buy an ATX board if you choose the 760t. Or it will look wierd

    At 4K your surprisingly better off with 2x R9 290X 8GB, since in Crossfire the they outperform the 980, cost about the same, and have more vRAM at a higher bandwidth. Also, on there own an R9 290X can actually come quite close to the GTX 980-and its a lot older.

    A blower style cooler would probably be the best, In such a small case you want to get as much heat out of the case as possible.

    TechnoBacon reacted to DarkBlade2117 in Razer Kraken Pro Vs HyperX Cloud, Which One Should You Get?   
    In this review, my very first one I will be talking about my experiences with the two headsets. I very much enjoy both headsets and I've been using my HyperX Cloud 1's for 20ish hours straight. Now let's get right into the review.
    Comfort - Let's start off with the Kraken Pro, The Krakens to me feel a bit lighter which feels better when I used them for 4+ hours of gaming. The Kraken Pros Ear pads are very nice right out of the box but they feel like they are squeezing your head and they would give me minor headaches the first 2 weeks until they broke in. After that I had no complaints about them comfort wise. Now the HyperX's are a whole new story. They may be heavier but right out of the box I could tell they felt better. The Ear pads felt broken into already and fit nice on my head. The memory foam headrest was very nice ( The Kraken Pros was also nice ) but the HyperX was just like putting a cloud ( Ey ? Ey ? ) on your head. The removable ear pads were very nice but the cotton ( Think they are cotton ) Just weren't my thing. They didn't feel as good as I thought they would and it blocked no sound, almost like putting mesh around your ears. All in all comfort wise.
    Kraken 7/10
    HyperX 9/10
    Sound Quality - The kraken pro right out of the box is nice but they didn't meet my expectations, I had to mess around with Razer Surround so when listening to bass songs I could actually hear the song instead of a nice head massage. The Kraken Pro is very bass heavy for headphones in my opinion and are very nice but I did have to mess around in Surround to get them to meet my style Gaming wise the surround was very nice and that is what gets it the score it gets, games like DayZ it was nice to know where everything was coming from and that feel that you were in-game really did push the Kraken. The HyperX's out of the box exceeded what I thought for $80 headset. A bass boosted song full blast I could hear the song clear enough with that nice bass feel. It could use a little bit of tuning but was insanely nice for out of the box.Now the HyperX Cloud 1's which do NOT have surround are still very nice, and you can hear things like footsteps a bit clearer with the HyperX Clouds. ( Cloud 2's have Surround) All in all for Sound Quality
    Kraken 7.5/10
    HyperX 8/10
    Mic Quality- I can't say to much but from messing around with each for about 3ish hours the Mic on both are fine for your everyday Skype calls or DayZ usage. It is in no way a YouTube quality mic. The ?Clouds have a very nice mic for a headset, It's removes le and comes with a coverup just incase you don't want it and have for say a Snowball. The quality out of the box the HyperX has won it. The kraken seems a little more quite and doesn't seem to pick my voice up as well, I love that it's retractable. All in all for Sound Quality
    Kraken 6/10
    HyperX 8/10
    Looks and Style and Durability - Both mics come in different varieties. The kraken pro comes in ( First is Primary Second is Secondary) Kraken White/Black Black/Green Green/Black, I had the white/black ones. The HyperX Black/Red and I believe it was Black/White (or silver).The Kraken Pros are very nice, everything is covered up one way or another, very bulky feel, but the big feel sometimes made my ears start to sweat and around the rims of the ear pads. The HyperXs are smaller but earlier like I said weigh more. They have more of an open feel and even after 6 hours they just started to feel like they were on my head. But there are these "wire" looking things that when you have on correctly go from the headrest to the earpads on the left and right side. Durability wise both are very durable but the Kraken Pro being made of plastic and HyperX is made of a more metal ish material. The Krakens ear pads fold in so if you drop them less of a chance of breaking. The HyperX been bended ( without to much force) still held just fine and same with the Kraken. The wire on the Kraken pro seems to be made of some cheap rubber material that after a week easily brokeup and had to be black taped. Reason I got the .hyperx is because the Razers cheap wiring with the littlest of force dang near ripped it in half and the right side quit putting sound out. The HyperXs wiring seem to be made of a much more fabric material, much more durable and even after folding it in half nothing seemed to get them to wanna give. All in all
    Kraken 7/10
    HyperX 8.5/10
    Last but not Least Packaging- The Kraken pro at first sight seems to be in a better state. With a plastic I don't know like window thing to show them off. But when opened there was no foam, nothing, it came with a cheap audio splitter cable which may I add didn't even work and I'm not the only one with that problem. With a nice drop the headphones would of easily broke from the cheap box and packaging Razer decided to use with the same things you get in every Razer product some silly stickers ect... Now Kingston has overdone themselves with packaging. The HyperX's packaging is unbelievable. Nothing like I've seen before. You open it up and oh look another box not one of these. This is a very durable box that the cover has a nice paragraph welcoming you to the world of gaming with this headset. The headset sat in atleast 2 inches of foam on every angle except the top which still had a sheet of foam. I could of dropped these off my roof and they still would work. The ?hyperX's came with plenty of wires, a audio combining thing which turned the audio and microphone cable into one to plug into your mobile device. A audio splitter cable, a thing to turn your mic off and on, turn the volume up and down and a button that from all I can tell Kindda Is like a click, which plays and pauses videos on YouTube on your mobile device. Plus a good 10 foot extension cord is crazy. They did not have to do this but they did. A little box at the bottom when pulled out contains all this and the 2 extra cloth ear muffs. Plus a mesh bag to put your headphones in, plus a front slot which can cary every cable, the extra ear pads, and the mic. Oh the mic was also in a very nice spot which was safely secured. I absolutely loved the Unboxing experience of this product and it was unbelievable.
    For quality packaging..
    Kraken 4/10
    HyperX 10/10
    Now all in all, Both are very nice headsets and the HyperX Clouds obviously come out on top. Which should you get? The HyperX Cloud's and Kraken Pros both at $80 the HyperX I would of paid $100 for. I got the ?hyperX on sale for $71 on Amazon. I would honestly go with the Cloud 1's, So much quality for the price. I love them so much for the time I've had them and they have out done the Kraken Pros by so much.

    So I got a 290x rog matrix platinum or whatever and i overclocked it to 1150 and ran valley without artifacts. Is that an expected clock rate? Im only familiar with nvidia 980 clocks and my 980 overclocks well beyond that.

    Its for my brothers new system, it was cheaper than a 970 so why not. He got the card before the rest of the parts so I took it for a spin, really suprised by the valley score. Sounds like a jet engine. But my heatset blocks the noise out pretty good.
