  1. According to this: https://nasilemaktech.com/keyboard-led-mod/2/ I might be able to mod the Ducky to have working LED's, so that's what I bought Thank you
  2. Yeah, I want it to have that small amount of light shining from the front of the keycaps. I didn't even realise that Ducky had a metal faceplate! The Filco keyboard is also great. Guess I'll have to pick between the two and give up on the lighting. Thanks for the recommendation
  3. Why is it contradictory to have that key cap type with RGB/LED's? Sorry, yeah a faceplate is the word I was looking for instead of shroud.
  4. I'm looking for a mechanical keyboard, with potentially MX Browns (because i'm only going to use it for typing at work) i'd like it to have ninja keycaps, potentially a metal surface would be cool, and be full size, but I can't seem to find any that have RGB or LED backlighting or come in a metal shroud. I was considering forgoing the backlit and metal aspects and going for this: https://duckychannel.com.tw/en/Ducky-One-Side-print The price online seems to be about $130-$170 AUD and that's about my price range. Does anyone know of any full size keyboards in my price range (or more, up to maybe $200?) that do manage to fit my criteria?
  5. I'm looking at a Logitech Master MX 2s, and i've never had a wireless mouse before. Really excited to finally upgrade from my ancient mouse! All of the reviews i've been seeing say it's a great mouse but i haven't seen any that talk about its longevity, does Logitech usually have decent longevity in its mice?
  6. Is this considered a modern 1030? Would it be able to do 100hz?
  7. Would that be sufficient to run an ultrawide at 3440 by 1440 and another 1080p monitor? I don't really understand what I would do that would really tax a graphics card heavily so I can't figure out what I would need that would be sufficient.
  8. @TechMasterMind I'm so glad to hear it, I keep feeling bad that I can't afford the Swift in my budget lol @Darkseth Awesome! I didn't want to spend the money to buy a new computer now anyway! Would you recommend the RTX cards even if I was only going for a budget option? I don't game at all so I reckon that means a budget card would be okay for me? @QuadriplegicI currently use the integrated graphics on my motherboard for both my HD TV and 1680x1080 monitor. I had a 1gb Graphics card but the fan died and I didn't know it so the card stopped working after that. @Captain ChaosI have the Noctua D 14 cooler, I think it was the best non water one I could find at the time, I messed with the overclock once and could go up to 4GHz, I didn't want to use a boatload of power though because I use my computer all the time so I dropped it back to stock. I have a 750 watt power supply which should be enough. @_d0nut I do have a good AIO, it's the Noctua D14 but I would love to upgrade my motherboard CPU and ram, would overclocking the CPU make the integrated graphics work better?
  9. I have a really really old computer with an i7 2600k and 8 gigs of ram on an ASRock Z68 Professional Gen.3 Fatal1ty Motherboard and I really want to get a 34 inch ultrawide monitor because i'm sick of looking at my 1680x1080 22 inch monitor. I eventually decided on a Samsung C34 H890 34", I don't game but I would watch videos on it occasionally, I picked this one because i'd like to jump over 1920x1080 and 2560x1080 and go straight to 1440P on a curved ultrawide and couldn't find something that ticked all the boxes that wasn't something more made for gamers like the ASUS ROG Swift PG348Q. What I can't figure out is whether or not it would be more worthwhile to buy a decent graphics card with the screen and plug it into my old computer, delaying a whole computer upgrade for a few more years or buy a whole new computer (budget would be about $2,300) immediately and run the new screen off of the internal GPU. The graphics card I was looking at was the MSI GeForce GT1030 2GB because it supports 1440P ? I've been agonizing over which screen to get, whether or not to buy a new computer, or to get the graphics card instead for almost a year and I just can't seem to figure out which way to go to get to upgrade to 1440P
  10. For the future planning side of things i'd say go for the 1440 because if you get a 1080 screen now you'd almost definitely want to upgrade your screen in the next few years, but if you got the 1440 you would be able to hold out longer.
  11. That's the one I think Hardware Canucks recommended too as a kick butt budget option. Do you find the lack of IPS annoying? Feels like the vibrant colour is pretty tough to let go of. I really like the Acer XR342CK but that pricepoint is rough.
  12. How about the BenQ PD3200U 32"? I'm not sure if this is a good quality monitor though. ASUS 32 " 4K Ultra HD ProArt Professional Monitor [PA328Q] IPS this is from ASUS- they have great QA I think? Acer XR342CK 34" Ultra-Wide UHD IPS- This is IPS but not 4k, not sure why that's a good thing but it was suggested earlier! Maybe someone more knowledgeable about this could confirm?
