Look into a Powerline. Thats what im currently using. Not the greatest solution and doesnt work for everyone but when it works it is on par with a wired connection

Quintavious V reacted to GoldenLag in Check out my planned build!
Youd need to have a wifi card aswell. You can pick them up rather cheap. You might find someone selling them used. Though id recommend getting a wired solution lf sort. Either using a powerline or similar

144hz freesync monitor. Sadly not a 27" one. Youd need another 100$ for that.
This build will only fit in the budget if you are willing to run without a case for a while

Quintavious V reacted to Untitled in Which monitor??
From your choices
Asus: Best color compared to the others (but still not a good color), supported a dead technology like 3D. Costly
Acer: Cheap. about the same spec as Asus. But shitty build quality. Monitor stand is the worst and not very adjustable.
AOC: Washed out color. But exterior build quality is good. Monitor stand is pretty strong.
BenQ: Nerfed version of XL2430. a little bit better color than AOC. build quality is pretty ok.
If you mainly focus on competitive gaming like dota or csgo, then just go for the cheapest one. All of them have low response time and high refresh rate. You can't expect a high image quality from a budget gaming monitor.
P.S. btw a washed out color sometime it gives you a slight advantage in competitive game. You can see a bit clearer in the dark scene.

Quintavious V got a reaction from jiyeon in Logitech G502 Review!
Sup everyone! I recently got the G502 as a gift, and i wanna talk about, so, ill say a less detailed desc about it, then get more into detail then the pros and the cons
Lets begin!
The mouse in my opinion is great, the free scroll wheel, the buttons, the thumb rest, the weights, it can feel plastic-light without weights and heavy with all the weights, the mouse itself can store up to three profiles and theres 11 programmable buttons, one of them being a DPI or sniper button.
Alright, so
the free scroll wheel can be activated by clicking the button directly behind it, its very useful for scrolling through very long pages, you no longer feel the clicks every scroll when activated, the button used to activate it feels like a cherry mx blue but not exactly, its still very nice to press. There are side mousewheel buttons, meaning i can click the mousewheel left or right and you can program them. I use them to raise/lower the volume, the mousewheel is metal but imo that doesnt really matter.
Apart from MOUSE1 (left click) and MOUSE2 (right click) and MOUSE3 (middle click) there are 6 other buttons, excluding the side mousewheel buttons, one of them is a DPI button, which can be very useful, say for example, you like playing with 3000 dpi in shooting games but when you aim you want around 600 dpi, lets take Fortnite for example, You just killed someone with a shotgun and theres someone far from you, so you build a ramp and you aim with your sniper, you hold the sniper button which lowers your DPI, and you can aim better.
The weights are very nice, there are 5 weights, each weighing 3.6 grams which you attach at the bottom of the mouse, next to the sensor, by removing the magnetic panel at the bottom of the mouse, the mouse out of the box weighs 4.3 ounces, while with all the weights its 5.9 ounces.
Now, about the profiles, this mouse can store 3 profiles, lets say your mouse has the best settings for you in fortnite and it took you a long time with tests and stuff, anyway, so you go to your friends house to play fortnite, and you plug in your mouse and put profile 1, which is the fortnite settings instead of having to change all the settings, cool huh? Hell yeah
The software is AMAZING, UNLIKE RAZERS, ITS LIKE COMPARING EAZY E, TO LIL PUMP, UNMATCHED. Razer's software is ass, Logitech's isnt, my laptop is an i7 2670qm so its really slow and for razer it makes my laptop lag, not logitech's. THANK. YOU. LOGITECH. THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU. Sorry, i just love the software.
Theres RGB, cool huh? Nope, the G logo is covered by your palm and the profile/dpi light to show you what settings is cool but the rgb isnt that good, the white color is not white, which sucks.
My keyboard is the Razer Blackwidow Chroma V2 TE, the braided cable that comes with it is good, the logitech's? Not as good. its more soft and wears off more which sucks but eh whatever.
The feet for this mouse is amazing, my previous mouse had HARD PLASTIC feet sticking out, eugh
Mouse? AMAZING, I LOVE IT, 4.7/5 STARS 9.7/10

Again, it depends on where you live. What may be cheap and good in US may not be available in Australia for example, and some brands in Europe are not available in US or are much cheaper.
Can't figure out where you're from based on your posts so I'm just gonna assume US.
Here's some good choices, from cheapest (without mail-in rebates) to not so cheap but solid even great choices :
40$ : SeaSonic S12II 430B 430W ATX12V / EPS12V 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply - 430w (360w on 12v) , 5y warranty, japanese components, a bit old design but quality components
45$ : SeaSonic S12II 520 Bronze 520W ATX12V V2.3 / EPS 12V V2.91 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply - same as above but more power on 12v (480w) , 5 year warranty, quality parts inside
47$ (27$ if 20$ extra mail-in rebate goes through) : Corsair CX-M CX450M 450w - more modern design, semi-modular, dc-dc conversion for 3.3v and 5v, great deal if the mail-in rebate goes through (but discount only available for 2 more days on Newegg)
52$ (32$ if the 20$ mail-in rebate goes through) - Antec EA-550 550w Bronze efficiency - probably made by Delta or FSP either way it's very OK design, very good value for price but not modular or semi-modular unlike Corsair CX-M (all cables conencted permanently) and just 3 year warranty (5year on CX-M)
55$ ( 35$ if the 20$ mail-in rebate goes through) CORSAIR CX-M Series CX550M 550W 80 PLUS BRONZE Haswell Ready ATX12V & EPS12V Semi-Modular Power Supply - same as above but 550w model
60$ ( 45$ with 15$ mail-in rebate) = Seasonic FOCUS series SSR-550FM 550W 80 + Gold Power Supply, Semi-Modular, ATX12V/EPS12V, Compact 140 mm Size, 7 yr warranty - GOLD efficiency, semi modular, 7 year warranty, great deal if the rebate goes through

Quintavious V reacted to Mira Yurizaki in SSD and External HDD help
Most games are designed with slower storage limitations in mind and are often packaged in a way that minimizes the penalty for accessing the drive. The only penalty for using slower media in most games is initial loading times. But once the game or level is loaded, that's about it. Even if the game is streaming data, it's usually not enough to be painful. I've even managed to run GTA V off a NAS using 802.11ac without much of an issue (granted the computer was right next to the router).
The only issue you may have is if you heavily modified the game. The thing that really kills storage performance is how many files you're requesting at a time, not how much data you want. Since mods typically aren't packaged the same way game assets are, you really should get an SSD if you want to shave off loading times.
tl;dr, for games, you don't really have to worry about running off a hard drive, even an external one, unless you really care about load times.

Quintavious V reacted to TheGlenlivet in SSD and External HDD help
Yes, but the stuff on the external drive will be limited to the speed of the USB connection. That, and you'll have to manage windows just right to keep the install under 60 GB over time. It fills up with logs and junk.

Quintavious V reacted to D13H4RD in SSD and External HDD help
When you're doing I/O intensive tasks, your speed is effectively limited to how fast your USB connection is.
A better idea is to get an SSD that's 128/256GB and a SATA 7200RPM 2TB HDD, assuming your system can hold either 2 SATA 2.5"/3.5" drives or an M.2 + 2.5/3.5" drive together.
You can store games on an external drive, but games which rely heavily on loading textures from the drive may encounter some issues due to the lower I/O speed.
-
Quintavious V reacted to TheGlenlivet in SSD and External HDD help
No, like loading speed. Say you are loading a game in steam, it will be limited in it's loading speed by the USB connection. SATA from the motherboard is 6 gbs while usb 3 is 5, and realistically won't hit that when loading multiple files from an external drive. This will make things slower to load and can cause issues in game with things like GTAV or Skyrim where the game has to load levels as you move around.
