  1. Sikth The safety fire Intervals Piotrek Gruszka Plini The last two are just some dudes though =)
  2. Just got my hand on a CM storm Mizar and it's great. I think it should be in your budget. as far as keyboards go CM storm I think is very competitive on a budget. the quickfire XT might be a good fit since you wanted a numpad. Good luck!
  3. I would put it like this: If you are just looking for a phone that does nothing great but everything OK. the nexus is fine. Great for the price but not great in general
  4. I guess the reason you can't turn it off is because it makes skins less relevant since it's mostly for bragging rights and e-peen anyway. I don't really mind silly or colourful skins, it's just somewhat frustrating when you think the weapon on the ground is and AWP but it's a scout or you think it's a p250 and it's a p2000 and so on. I assume that people that care about skins are more aware of which skins are for which weapons though so they might not have the same problem.
  5. I used to play 1.5 and 1.6 competitive back in the day so I started playing some cs:go last year when it started to pick up some popularity. (just for fun) Feels really nostalgic but at the same time fresh with some new maps, more viable weapons and all around new strategic details. I personally don't care about skins but I seems to capture the interest of many people so I guess it's a decent addition.
  6. Sound interesting but it will have to be very cheep to justify the very narrow usability. And as far as looks go I guess we have different tastes =)
  7. I think HyperX cloud is the better option. I have used the Razer Deathadder and Razer Goliathus speed (or however you spell it) ALOT and they are great but the Kraken is simply not. A company can make some good and some bad products, the Deathadder and the Kraken are very good example of this.
  8. Cooler: 212 Evo is fine. Motherboard: Asus Z97 Pro would be my choice if I didn't know that I needed any of the additional features on the Hero. Video card: I usually prefer ASUS or EVGA cards above the others. This is However very subjective. PSU: Corsair RM750 Watt Gold Modular is good enough. No problem. However, Most people don't buy that second card =) I would probably go for a 250Gb SSD I would also be open to settle for the i5-4690k if I needed to make space for other things that might have a bigger impact on gaming performance than Hyper-threading.
  9. I've got both the Cloud and the non 7.1 version of Kraken. The kraken sound awful without HEAVY EQ tweaking. (doubt 7.1 version is better) The Cloud sound good. Both are about the same in terms of comfort (for me) Don't know about the Sibera v3 but the v2 were between the Kraken and Cloud in terms of sound and probably above both of them in comfort, although be it just slightly better (again, imo) hyperX cloud is the headset that I actually use on LANs. At home I use some in-ear things and a Blue snowball
  10. I really like the Hyper X cloud or Qpad H90. Very good for what it is.I don't know what they will cost you or if you can get both or either where you live but here they are around 80-90 euro and they are frequently on sale for around 50-60 euro which they are definitely worth. However, you were looking for headphones to replace your headset and not necessarily another headset? In that case there should be loads more options. Unfortunately I'm not that familiar with those but I'm sure others will tell you. Good luck.
  11. Basically +1 on this. I have the 990FXA-UD3 for my 8320, works as fine as the 8320 will work probably.
  12. I think that the difference is just that the EVO has firewire, 2 more USB 2.0 ports and slightly better soundcard
  13. try changing the battery on the MB. I think it does that because it checks for your bios settings and then restart with those settings.
  14. Started playing games on PC in the 90's played nes/snes before that.
