  1. Bought a novatouch off of someone! curious to see if the topre on the novatouch feels as good as the topre on my realforce

    Wow for $99 the Masterkeys Pro S from coolermas…

    Yup, I've always been a fan of CM keyboards. Really well priced mechs with cherry switches that are always plain in aesthetic... And as you said they always impress me with the build! My only quarrel with them has always been the keycap font, but I usually change caps anyways (but the Pro S has nice font tho!)

    I see why typists like MX brown... https://10fa…

    Let me know how they are, always been curious about matias reds @SurvivorNVL @Flight1sim I agree, reds are a bit too mushy for me.

      I can't stand them.  I prefer, strangely, Gateron Yellows, which are between Reds and Blacks, ultra-smooth.  Soon getting my Matias Linear Red board.  If I like them enough, I'll be ordering 68 of them for a project.

      I love browns. I currently own 3 mech keyboards, with mx reds, blues, and browns. I prefer the browns the most out of them, blues are just too loud and annoying, reds are too mushy for typing.

  4. Wow for $99 the Masterkeys Pro S from coolermaster has really impressed me... I feel I'm going to be playing around a lot with the LEDs for a while!

      I didn't care for led's and got the Rapidfire mx browns for $60 on black friday. Coolermaster has shocked me with the build quality, i'd put it higher than corsair at this point.

      The keycaps are pretty crap on mine, they're just printed on. I assume the backlit keycaps are better quality. I love how simple the keyboard is, no frills etc. So clean :D

  5. I never thought I would like linear for typing but they are actually pretty sweet... trying out this new kaihl red board

  6. I shifted away from my audiophile roots and tried out the QC35... Pleasantly surprised to say the least. They'll be my main cans for the forseeable future

      A buddy of mine got those, they're pretty great. Never got why they get so much shit.

  7. $450 could get you a nice quality loop, at least if he's buying in the US CPU $50, GPU $90, Pump+Res $100, Fittings $50, tubing $20, 240 rad $50 (240mm for now, could always add more later) edit: if $450 is fine and you're serious about a loop OP I could send you some parts
  8. The storage is probably overkill but I just plan on archiving a TON of files from all over the web (I would never use this much if it was just for my downloads, as I usually only use up 200GB on my main PC's )
  9. I've been curious about those ASRock embedded boards, but is it really worth all the storage loss? Thanks for recommending Amahi, I'll definitely give it a look!
  10. Probably just Windows because I'm a pleb. Might also throw in a light weight linux distro, dunno. No particular reason, I just REALLY dislike the look and for $12 I rather make it slightly better looking. I'll see how much more NAS drives are, what do you think of RAID 5?
  11. Never do any NAS builds, so just kind of threw together a build and I'd like your feedback. (Try not to roast me too hard) Board supports raid, and everything else is just pretty general. I threw in the random cooler because the stock one looks gross imo http://pcpartpicker.com/list/ymsGkT I assume there's better options for the HDD's, but I'd rather stay away from Seagate and not increase the budget too much. Thanks!

    That's true, but I think I can get an expensive gift alongside the piercings @Flight1sim Thanks @ONOTech ! How's the channel?

      Nah piercings are things you can get for free later, make sure to get something of value now.

      pls don't pierce your ears

  15. Trying the Razer Mamba tournament edition for a bit. I've hated Razer for 4 years after all of my stuff broke, but so far I'm digging their new stuff. Pretty nice switches, good texture, and a good shape....

    Haha, thanks if anything I use it for that reason, it's just a stupid and funny term lol And yeah, if anything I'd say you should look at the kana too! It was like $25

    yolo as in you only live once. I used that phrase here because the mouse is extremely old and not really bought anymore, but it turned out to be a worthwhile investment!
  18. I bought a blade & soul edition Steel Series Kana for yolos and I somehow am liking the sensor over the perfect G303 sensor lol...

      Please don't say yolo...  You seem much too intelligent to be using that term.  

       

      I'm happy you like your new mouse though.  ?

       

      I'd love a new mouse and keyboard myself to be honest.  I'm using some cheapie keyboard and mouse that had come with my desktop when I'd originally bought it as a prebuilt.

      Awesome!  

       

      Would you be ok mentioning some of what you've gotten?  I'm curious what sorts of cool things you've gotten.  ?

       

      Also how are you getting it all home?

      Any chance you could take some pictures of the figures?  (Assuming that would be an issue here.)

       

      I'd love to see what you got.  I keep wanting figures but they're always so expensive...

       

      Seeing yours would be a nice alternative to getting my own.  If not that's ok if you really wouldn't want to.

       

       

      A Vita would be cool too.  I'll admit there aren't as many games I like for it as I wish there were but there's still plenty of awesome titles.  More if you get games in Japanese.

       

      I've got the Madoka Magica: The Battle Pentagram and a Girls Und Panzer game both in Japanese.  I don't speak or read it but those games are mostly just a matter of learning which buttons do what.  

       

      I also have the ASIA/Taiwan (I think) version of both SAO: Hollow Fragment and SAO: Lost Song that are in English.  I didn't feel like waiting for the US version of either.   lol
