Ducky Shine 3 with Corsair M65 mouse, but the middle click doesn't really work anymore so I had to rebind the DPI switch to middle click. Unfortunately, that also seems to not work sometimes.

The low-profile keys of the GRAM are interesting, and will probably make the RGB effect more pronounced. Would like to see how those switches compare to standard cherry switches.

Edit: er... I read your post wrong, sorry.

I like the Feenix Autore the most - the black-on-black gives a very stealthy and elegant look (much like their lineup)!

If you check this article out, I think you'll find that this isn't really a big issue. Really have to check for sensationalism when they make these kinds of statements.

No. I don't see how Vessel can have any negative impact. If you didn't know that there was a Vessel channel, I doubt that anyone would even notice a difference just watching the Youtube videos. Perhaps you might notice during the WAN show when they discuss early access videos.

Even though MSN was gone for most people a few years ago, there were features that existed in MSN 8+ years ago that don't exist on Skype or really any other popular messaging platform now

Honestly I'd just use it for a new build that I am planning to do anyway. However, it might be helpful for software development and folding. Or perhaps I will trade with someone who needs this 6 core CPU more than me.

"its time for us to talk about games on Windows" Microsoft says
WindyDays replied to XTankSlayerX's topic in Tech News
Lol didn't they already say this multiple times and the end result is nothing (good) actually happens? -
Wait... what happened here? Why did a bunch of people get quoted to to post? If I think this is what I think it is, I don't feel that you need to apologise, although if you make amendments to your opinion you can simply post again/edit your original post. Furthermore, I think it was a good thread for feedback on the direction on new videos (even though there was one kind of recently anyway).

Regarding the original topic: I watch Linus' videos to learn about the state of the tech market because I enjoy it and I enjoy how LTT covers them. Even if there are products that I'm never looking to buy or won't be able to afford any time soon, I feel like I can learn something from these videos so I watch them. That recent eyefinity video? I'm unable to afford that, but not only was it really interesting, it was educational not just because" Linus said this and thus I learnt that", but because it provides insight into these types of setups, allowing me to judge the qualities of such a setup for myself. The bluetooth paper airplane video? I'm not looking to buy that and I didn't really learn anything that I wanted to know but at least I got a gift idea out of it and I thought it was really cool. However, my first though when I saw the video was: "doesn't this belong to something like SuperFun more?" - something to consider maybe. The need for seat gaming chair video? That's definitely not directly tech related, but it's something relevant to the majority of the subscriber base and I thought it was good to know - I think it's fine and not really out of place. The baby monitor video though? I watched it because I thought that because Linus was reviewing it, it might be something cool or interesting right? I was disappointed when this was not the case and I felt that it was just a random (albeit well-made) review of something irrelevant to at least me, and I'm guessing at least the majority of the subscriber base. In summary, I think that as Linus was saying, choosing not to review boring products that really have no new features or out of the world performance or anything like that is fine since there isn't much to gain out of these reviews. However, occasionally reviews are really out of place and I feel don't belong to this channel or don't really deserve a LTT review at all (mostly lifestyle-related products and some indie game "impressions" way back at some event).

The infrastructure is currently still mostly copper with the technology to go fibre for ages, and yet we are seeing very slow adoption of this new technology around the world. Even though this isn't a replacement for the whole fibre network, it doesn't seem like it would be cheap to implement either, so we are probably still a long way away...

Assassin's Creed dev thinks industry is dropping 60 fps standard
WindyDays replied to The Crazed Child's topic in Tech News
There is just clearly no basis for this argument. No matter what the genre is (as long it's not something like text or some simple 2D game), everyone who has seen 30FPS vs 60FPS would be able to visibly tell the difference, and agree that 30FPS really disrupts the immersion. Industry standards should only drop if there is some new technology that provides an equal or better experience based on the "new" standard - in this case maybe something like G-sync - but even then not only does he not mention it, it is hardly close enough to mainstream and even then it's not very compelling. Developers play a vital role in determining industry standards in general, and I really hope that other developers will think that this is stupid and thus let these kind of things be one-off incidents or that consumers will not pay for their products... although given history the latter often isn't so effective for more popular franchises.- 200 replies

I am quite sure OP lives in Australia and even when you take into account exchange rates, PC components are more expensive here...

This was posted on their facebook page: Source: Ducky facebook page (you must like their page to view) Interesting departure from their usual style with the glossy finish (which I'm not a huge fan of) and seemingly hollow underbody - how will this affect build quality? I guess the most prominent thing is the knobs to the right which are presumably for volume control and...?
