    isaac22701 got a reaction from kevinisbeast707 in k70 Mk2?   
    I guess though if you want to justify it I would consider speeds to be a pretty significant upgrade over reds for gaming, and if you get the white it will come with their double shot PBT keycaps as well as better reflections for brighter lights and an arguably better aesthetic depending on what you have. I personally like the standard color more but the better keycaps might make it worth it. Everything else looks like a k95, and after looking at it for a while it has a bigger wrist wrest and the same bigger media keys as a k95 as well as the rgb logo.

    Yeah I would too. Although if I were to upgrade from my k70 I'd rather get a k95 so I'll probably wait until they release a new k95... That way I could better justify it
    You could always "accidentally" spill water on it when cleaning lol

    eh, all im missing out on is what looks like 1 button, and a light-up corsair logo rather than a shiny metal one

    I would still consider them to be one of the best open back headphones in the 200$ price range. Age doesn't matter here like WereCat allready said.

    Why wouldn't they be good? Audio is not like computer HW so it doesent really matter how old they are. They still sound as good as they did few years back.

    isaac22701 reacted to TheSLSAMG in Looking for a new case   
    For reference, I built in a Meshify C with an H100i v2, AsRock Z370 Extreme4 and GSkill Ripjaws V. Ultimately, so long as your VRM heatsinks aren't much taller than the rear I/O shield, you should be fine with it. It's a little tight, but any case that small would be tight. Front mounting would not be possible because with the front fan and radiator mounted, there would only be around 11.3" left to spare, while the GPU is 11.73" long.
     
    The Silverstone PM01-RGB is a little bigger depth-wise (around 7 inches), but it's an interesting looking case with RGB, high airflow, tempered glass, no GPU clearance issues, etc. It's $160 - $165, and it comes in black, matte black and white. Though I figure you're going for a more muted look considering you like the Meshify C and the H700i.

    isaac22701 reacted to Raxxath in ML 120 or silentwings 3 for front radiator?   
    Keep in mind that supposedly the ML Pros require a real PWM connector/signal for the magnetic levitation bearing to function properly. I've read that they only work correctly with a 12v signal.
     
    I tried one briefly a while back without realizing that my motherboard had fake PWM connectors, and was totally unimpressed with it compared to the Silent Wings 3. I wish I could try one again on a proper PWM connector.

    Just no.
     
    Double ball bearing gets noisy af.
     
     
     
    You dont need static pressure fans for radiators. Best is airflow fan with decent static pressure.
     
    The Corsair ML120 PRO are awesome.

    isaac22701 reacted to Klemmbrett in ML 120 or silentwings 3 for front radiator?   
    Mhh looks pretty similar to my meshify c but with 2 design flaws no mesh front panel no 240/280 aio mount on top(they could have made it just a few cm taller and then it would be possible). But you can just like the meshify c remove that psu shroud (see pic you would normally do that for a 360 front rad) and mount another fan there ? in my case i could mount either one at the bottom or one additional 120 mm in the front then assuming no i would not use the harddrive cage. Another question to more experienced water cooling guys out there isnt it better to mount the fans and then the rad and not like you did ? I mean from my point of view the fans on the rad have to fight the radiator + the front panel + an 90 degree angle there.

    isaac22701 reacted to Revan654 in ML 120 or silentwings 3 for front radiator?   
    I have both and I have fully tested them, this is all based off my own testing.
     
    - Silent Wings 3 & ML Pros are both very quiet. With SW3 being slightly quieter but at a reduced performance.
    - Silent Wings 3 PWM version have issues with certain Fan controllers and fan headers.
    - Silent Wings 3 also have gaps between each fan which creates dead spots on the radiator.
    - ML Pros push allot more CFM through compared to SW3.
    - ML Pro's use Magnetic Levitation technology, You will never hear the motor on Corsair Fans.
     
    In the end ML Pro's are better for radiators.
     
     
    I think your confused on what static pressure fans are designed for and how they operate with radiators.

    Give it time, the air pockets should rise to the top. Moving the system will mean you need to wait again for it to settle.
    You should also triple check to see if there are indeed any cables too close to a fan.

    I would just flip the CPU fan. It'll put the flow in-line.

    isaac22701 reacted to DaveTheBeast023 in Heat sink on backwards   
    It depends, most cases have restricted airflow to the front of the case, and most of the time air flows out the sides of the front in little slits, through an air filter. If you're too lazy, I don't think switching the fans around would be that bad, unless you're a temp freak.

    In my opinoin 144hz isn't worth it. You should go with 4k.

    I don't think it's dead, it's all about if you have the hardware to run 4K or not. And not to mention you do get a lot of screen estate on a 4K monitor.

    If 30fps is enough to you why bother with a 144hz monitor? just sayin'

    isaac22701 reacted to ItsTheDuckAgain in 4k or 144hz?   
    ouch - if you want to run 144 Hz you want a rig that delivers 144FPS under ideal circumstances... just saying. 30 FPS is a waste here and bananas.
     
    a single 1070 will also not drive 144FPS with high / ultra settings at 4K, not even close. I guess not even at medium at most games.
     
    I run witcher 3 at ultra at 3440x1440 with a 1070 at around 70FPS on a 60 Hz panel....

    Oh, wow, well if you're fine with getting 30 FPS constant, then you should be able to get that with a GTX 1070. You might need to turn some settings down in some games though. I consider anything below 60 to be low and for most games I play 80-120 is preferred.
