    Zenedge reacted to tatte in Xbox 360 power brick compatibility   
    You're correct, they pull the amperage they need, and as all brinks designed for the phat are 12V, it's all good. The plugs are also designed so that you can't create an incompatible pair. S and E use a completely different plug, and as Jasper is the final iteration of phat, that's all you need to get right. Just be aware that the bricks liked to go bad as well, so you shouldn't just rush and buy the cheapest brick you can find.

    yeas... they have similar feelings from the start until the middle... except at the end part.. when the key finally bottoms out.. they feel different.

    depends on the price of a 4th gen i7. If it's really cheap (e.g. $100 or less) then I'd say yes. If it's closer to $200 then at that point it might be worth it to start saving up to buy Ryzen 5 and a new motherboard and new DDR4 RAM.
    DDR3 is still "good" and isn't irrelevant yet. It's only "good" if the CPU you're using requires it.

    I have two Corsair keyboards - a K70 Vengence ( 2014 ) and a K70 Rapidfire RGB - both great keyboards with Genuine Cherry mx switches
    I also have a new Blackwidow Chroma V2 with the new Greetech Green switches and I can honestly tell you there is NOTHING wrong with the new Greetech Razer Greens .
    I have to admit that the Cherry MX switches do feel more sturdy with slightly less key wobble but the Greetech switches are miles better than the original Khail switches in the first gen Blackwidow Chroma keyboards.
    I would recommend the new Blackwidow Chroma  V2 to anyone
    The quality of the new Blackwidow Chroma V2 is right up there with the best - great design and great software - the keyboard feels solid and heavy and the switches have a very even feel and click right across the entire keyboard -
    Time will tell if the switches hold up as well as the stated 80 million key presses but if they even last me a few years without crapping out like the original Khail Greens I'll be more than happy .
    Great keyboard all around and a pleasure to type and game on -
    but a word of advice - if you planning on just gaming a linear ( non - clicky ) switch might suit you better - especially for FPS type games - although I myself don't mind the clicky noise , if you gaming at night with other people close by they might complain as the Green switches are quite loud -
    but the greens are by far the best typing experience and the most satisfying to use
    I've used many types of switches but when I think mechanical I somehow associate that with Cherry MX blue and Razer Greens .
    the click and tactile feel of the Blue / Green switches is what it's all about -
    the ideal situation is to have a few keyboards and change them every few days to keep the typing / Gaming experience fresh
    I myself have been changing keyboards every second day between the Rapidfire and the Blackwidow -
    it's hard to pick a clear winner  - I love them all - one day I like clicky - the next - Rapidfire Linear -
    No matter how good the meal - variety is what makes things interesting and alleviates boredom and routine  .

    The switches are fake, and so is most of the quality
    Basically you mostly pay for the marketing and green LEDs targeting kids.

    So razer keyboard is an illusion after all this time?
    I have tried ornata and it suprised me.
    Strangely its so good to type on for a mem mech but yes its way too expensive u can buy a real mech keyboard for that price.
    Dont be loyal to razer just because u own their mice.
    Deathadder is by no mean a really good mouse but that doesnt mean u'll have to become a razer fanboy and start buying their product just to match your setup
    Get  a mech keyboard from corsair their K70 LUX RGB offer a variety of cherryswitches and its a solid keyboard with tons of features.

    Between the 2 cards, just get a 1050 Ti. Newer tech, uses less power, basically performs a bit better than the 280X in games, and 4GB VRAM.

    It is a good card to pair with that CPU, a good choice.
     
    As for the VRAM amount, it depends, the 4GB variant is usually a little faster but if it's much more expensive then just get the 2GB one.

    Zenedge reacted to Aereldor in planning on getting rx460   
    The GTX 1050 is $10 more than the RX 460 2GB and is faster, so the 2GB 460 isn't worth it. 

    The GTX 1050 Ti is usually about $30 more, so if you can afford to spend $25 more, you might as well get the significantly faster 1050 Ti.
