    Heard the topic on WAN show tonight about underwear spotted in the wild. Anyway, I would like to suggest you make longer leg underwear available. That’s pretty much exclusively what I try to wear being taller as well as for comfort. Looking for something similar to American Eagle brand 9” inseam boxer briefs

    I do have a question actually about the sponsor spot. I think in a WAN show Linus had said that he doesn't like calling the Vessi shoes waterPROOF because given enough time nothing is waterproof, just highly resistant. Is that just an error or has the opinion changed?

    This is the coolest projector I've ever seen! The styling of it looks simple yet shows it's a high quality product. Could have so many uses for this in my new planned media room! Would love the chance to win one! Good luck to everyone and hope to win

    It's either that or a PowerMac G5 Was just wondering because I picked up a Mac Pro and a Powermac G5, but the motherboard in one of them is definitely not standard sized. I'm just wondering if he was able to get the front panel hooked up and working because that's the only thing that stopped me from trying it

    @bomerr How did you get it to fit in a Mac Pro/G5 case? What mods did you have to do? Does the front panel work?

    Assetto Corsa is a great game! I've not played it too much but I've had fun with it when I have. I picked up a Logitech G27 on sale and it's definitely fun, even if just to experience a fast car on a drag strip.

    This for sure. If you can find a retro games store, you can probably find a copy of Madden or a similar sports game for <$5. Probably even $0.99 if they have a huge stock of them.

    It was doing it with games that I didn't even optimize which is why I was confused. I found it! It's under "Manage 3D settings > Global Settings" and then there was a DSR dropdown menu that was set to "4x native resolution" so I unchecked it and now the option to load in 4k is gone! THANK YOU SO MUCH It was getting really annoying lol

    So the gtx 970 (and 980 only i think) have features where you can choose to render your games in 4k on a 1080p monitor. I tried this with one game and now it's been doing it with all of my games. I would like to disable it permanently so I do not have them rendering in 4K constantly, as I don't really need to. It messes up my steam community size, etc. Thank you

    This looks like it might be too big, not sure. I looked and they don't look too slim. It basically needs to be no bigger than a few mm or something out from the actual 3.5 jack Yeah it's just I needed to find a really slim one. Turns out I don't actually need one for my car though, didn't realize I could play audio over bluetooth on this one.

    Hi guys, I have an iPhone 6 and I put a lifeproof case on it. The lifeproof case is designed to obviously be water-resistant/proof so it's got very small plug holes. Due to this, only the official apple charging cables (or cables built to the same width) and official apple 3.5mm headphones (like the ones that come with your phone, or a cable built to the same width) will fit into the ports. They do make a headphone extender for the lifeproof case where you can use any size cord but I am not good at keeping things like that secure so I would not be able to use it efficiently. I'm looking for a 3.5mm male to 3.5mm male so I can use my phone to hook up to car radios and stuff. I tried googling it but I cannot seem to find one that is good quality (as in won't break in 2 days) and is slim enough. Does anyone know of a cable I could buy or have a recommendation? So far, I've tried finding one online (briefly I'll admit) and went to Best Buy asking for a cable that was slim, their slimmest cable would not fit (it was still pretty large) Thank you Edit: This is the only cable I've found but it appears that it's build quality isn't the best for the price: http://www.amazon.com/ConnectOne-Auxiliary-LifeProof-Compatible-iPhone/dp/B00GG5EYUU/ref=pd_sxp_f_pt Edit 2: Found out that I could play sound via bluetooth through my radio instead of just using that for a hands-free device. Thanks for all of your help

    I really liked this video as it's "different" since it's showing something I don't see too many people doing. I currently use the "Glorious Extended Gaming Mouse Mat" (http://www.amazon.com/Glorious-Extended-White-Gaming-Mouse/dp/B00NOCZB78/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1428393361&sr=8-4&keywords=glorious+pc+gaming+race but mine is black) since it was on sale. It replaced my Corsair Vengeance Extended MM200. The only thing I can complain about it so far is that part of it hangs off the usable surface of my desk as I have a very weirdly proportioned desk. I play CS:GO a lot with it and am able to stop when I want, so that's really nice
  13. jman3350
    Yeah I was just thinking I'm not entirely sure if it would even show up properly on the video. Basically, I didn't see a difference between the 2 running CS:GO at max settings with no motion blur on in the game menu. If anything, I'd probably recommend using G-Sync over ULMB.
  14. jman3350
    Sorry for the quality, I can never really get it right. These 2 clips are filmed with Shadowplay and same settings used in movie maker, you could probably slow it down if you wanted via youtube settings. I don't really see any difference, but I do play CS:GO without any motion blur.
  15. jman3350
    If you really only want to play Minecraft and CSGO then the 650 TI might be able to hold out, you'd might have to lower settings a bit on CSGO to play at 144hz 1440p. If you want to upgrade your GPU, I'd probably recommend something like a 770 or 970, 960 maybe. I'm not too sure on those GPU's performance on 1440p for minecraft/CSGO.
  16. jman3350
    I don't think it really matters for ULMB but to be honest I've never really used it. I'll turn it on and run some tests, see if it's different and good/better. But I never saw a need to use it. With your 650 TI, I wouldn't recommend the 1440p monitor as you'll definitely have to make quite a few graphics compromises to even get the game running at that. You *could* get it and maybe run at 1080p but i'm unsure if that's ideal for something like this (or at all). Personally, I wouldn't recommend going 1440p on a 650 TI unless you really only plan on running low demanding games. I'd try to upgrade if you can, even if it is a used GPU.

    I have a BenQ XL2430T 144hz 1ms 1920x1080p TN panel monitor. I do not play with blur reduction and the 144hz is ridiculously smooth. The smoothness of the monitor I feel definitely comes from the refresh rate, as once I started playing CS:GO at 144hz, anything below that just looked weird since I was so used to the smoothness of 144. I'm considering getting rid of the BenQ or moving it aside for the Acer one even though I don't really need G-Sync (or don't think I do, who knows.) The monitor is 1440p so you will need a bit more power to drive demanding games, but with CS:GO, you should be able to hit 144hz. Minecraft, no idea honestly as I haven't really tested it but I'd assume you could get an advantage.
  18. jman3350
    Do you have any info on their resolution scaler? I have a 1080p benq but am just wondering what's up with it, doubt it applies there though.
  19. jman3350
    This is something I've been wanting, I just kind of wish they had a g-syncless model since I feel like that's adding an extra $100 or $200 to the price, who knows. Even though I have an NVIDIA gpu, I don't feel that I need g-sync. But I might need to get rid of my BenQ XL2430T for this... The only thing that annoys me is no DVI ports (I like the little locking screws on the ports so it doesn't come unplugged by mistake.)

    The modmic magnet wasn't holding well and the sticky side wasn't sticking to my earcup well, idk. I had heard my friends Yeti and it sounded pretty amazing so that's why i considered it. As I said in the OP and above in this post, modmic kept falling off the headset and my friends Yeti sounded amazing, I'll ask him about his mic setup. I'll consider this, thank you! Alright I'll look into the CAD u37

    I mean if it didn't work, the video probably would have helped pay for the invoice. But on the brightside, more advertising for Dell!

    Hi guys! I was looking into getting a desktop mic or something but I'm trying to make a good purchase. As of now, I'm using a Zalman ZM1 clip on, which is on the cord of my HD 558's but the sound positioning is a bit weird since its below/near my neck. I do have a modmic somewhere but I don't think it works + it kept falling off the mount. I was looking at something like a Blue Yeti (Blackout edition to be specific) but I wanted to know if there were any better solutions. I saw Linus' recent video on the Blue Yeti/Seiren/SL600 but was curious if there might be a better "starter" option. I have a small desk so if I could get a boom-arm instead of having it on the desk that'd be great. I'd like any mic recommendations + "startup" items such as boom-arm/pop filter/whatever I'd need for good sound. I usually have a floor fan on in the background (not directly pointed at the mic) as well as a Logitech G910 mechanical keyboard, so not a particularly loud switch.

    So since he said he was supposed to send it back, what would've happened had it not been recoverable? Also, I wonder if Dell will want that laptop back now.

    Edzel's voice in the video threw me off a bit, I really didn't expect it. However, I did like the depth he went to in his review by weighing the mice, demoing them, showing comparisons he was talking about on screen (like about the ROCCAT cable not dragging) and I thought it was quite interesting he brought some pro gamers opinions about the mouse into the review, mentioning CSGO, Cloud9 and TSM. I won't be getting this mouse (already have a G502) but it definitely was a good review.
