    FILCO MASTER RACE! With MX Browns for the daily driver :)

    Although I also have a Noppoo Choc Mini w/ MX Blues

    Going to get some blank black PBT keycaps for the Filco though, the pad printing seem to be wearing off faster than I thought

    YES! I said that you should do this when you asked a while back. Unboxings are fine and dandy but I've found over the years you started talking less about your own thoughts on actual quality and more of just plain first sight observations. I haven't heard you say anything negative about the build quality of a product for a long time, but this is some of the most critical info people are watching for. Rather than just saying "this GPU uses a dual fan design" or "comes with dual molex to 8pin" or some other stuff, it would be more helpful if you took more time with the product and gave an honest opinion (that means pros AND cons)
     
    Honestly I think there's too much content being produced right now, to the point where I don't know what I want to watch. Please focus on the larger products but take more time with them to give us a better idea. I know other people do reviews as well but people watch them not only because it's a review, but also your personality

    Smuggler's Run 2, by far
    The original was loads of fun, the second just took everything bad with the first and amplified it, whilst removing the fun-ness

    CoolerMaster Quickfire TK (has messed up arrow keys, if you swing that way), Quickfire Pro (partially backlit), and Storm Trigger
    Ducky Shine 2 comes in red, and so does the backlit versions of the Keycool 84 and 87
    There might be a few others, I believe Thermaltake has a few, but those are all that I can think of right now

    Having more jacks on your NIC might increase LAN speeds (transferring files from one computer to another over LAN), however it will not increase your internet speed
    Your computer is often not the bottleneck when it comes to internet speed, but rather the plan you purchase from your ISP.
    Even if you have a 100BaseT NIC (which is ooollddd), it would still not be a bottleneck on at least 80% of internet connections
     
    Take a speedtest, note the DL/UL, then browse your ISP's website or call them and browse other plans they offer if you're not satisfied with your internet speed
    Unless you're not getting the speed you paid for, there's not much you can do on your end to improve internet speed

    douchecanoe got a reaction from Toby in What do you want to be reviewed?   
    I'd like to see some more display monitors, preferably higher end one's with IPS, and higher resolutions like 1920x1200 or higher
    He probably couldn't do it because NCIX doesn't really sell them, but more high end headphones. He always recommends them to people but only unboxes cheap gaming headsets
    What I really want to see more of is actual reviews, less unboxings. Right now it's basically like he opens the box and gives you a first look, which is nice, but it's like he never uses it and gives a real review anymore
    It'd be cool to see some more experiments as well. He's pumping out unboxings like no tomorrow, but I'd like to see some more mods like he's doing with this personal project, or just unique videos. I know he does some on the NCIXcom channel, but still

    Hey guys, I've compiled a table of the most common or popular mechanical keyboards, and their different features, in the hopes it will fill a void that people seem to be having
    Popular features for gaming such as backlighting and macro keys are their own columns, as well as size (Fullsize is standard 104key, TKL is 87key or tenkeyless, Compact is smaller like 75%, 60% etc.)

    Click here for larger image
    Most of these keyboards can be found at
    - NCIX (Coolermaster, Corsair, Mionix, Razer, Filco, Steelseries, Das Keyboard)
    - Newegg (Coolermaster, Corsair, Mionix, Razer, Steelseries, Rosewill, Das Keyboard)
    - MechanicalKeyboards (Coolermaster, Razer, Corsair, Steelseries, Rosweill, Das Keyboard, Ducky, Vortex)
    - EliteKeyboards (Leopold, Topre, Happy Hacking)
    - KeyboardCo (Filco, UK & International)
    - Vendio's eStore (Noppoo, Ducky, Keycool, HPE)
    - TigerImports (Ducky)
    - WASDKeyboards (Self explanatory)
    As well, most of these keyboards can be found new or used on the Geekhack or Deskthority marketplaces
    Let me know what you think!
    Did I leave any keyboards out that you think should be included, should I make some more notes, or add some columns?
    It's an excel spreadsheet so I can sort it whichever way is useful, I may make it available to download later

    On another note, the I/O on that thing is ridiculous!
    4 USB 3.0, 4 USB 2.0, 4 eSATA, displayport (and are those 2x thunderbolt or mini displayport), plus optical audio? Ridiculous, but awesome!

    Ran it overnight, made some progress
    These 5770's can sure do some work, albeit slowly, especially with the paired Athlon II x4
    Got one WU done at least!
