  1. I keep my stuff clean I only use about 3 more devices (card reader, graphic tablet and the 360 controller that goes with the wireless dongle) and my drives are not shown there. I did not include the printers because I did not change anything there. I nearly never use this screen but I had to check something with my printer and got shocked by the ugliness
  2. I can make Icons for you. you only need to add them to your device. I don't need long for an icon
  3. that's the way it works with folders and shortcuts but for devices and printers you have to use a microsoft tool to bind the icon to a device
  4. I edited into my original post good idea, I think I'll change my crappy screen into a toaster!
  5. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/224162-devices-printers-change-device-icons-custom-icons.htmland http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/206723-icon-make-image.html where the tutorials I used. a few steps are written a bit weird so if you have question I'll help the short version would be that you need an icon that has 13 layers and then you use this https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/dn629490(v=vs.85).aspxto bind it to the device. Be careful with the association! on my first try every usb device turned to a M65 mouse and I had to unplug everything to see what is what
  6. I used Firefox for the past years but about a month ago I switched to chrome because Firefox had strange hiccups. I don't know anything about the performance difference but now I watch youtube videos at 60 fps
  7. I don't know if this is the right place to post this but I'll just try I have played a bit with the Windows Metadata Editor and wanted to change the (ugly) default icons to something that resembles the real device. Now tell me what you think about my accomplishments I won't change the Monitor icon because I'm changing it soon and I was too lazy to change the xbox 360 icons form that grey to black. let's make windows a bit more beautiful ps: yes I know that the picture I used for my Kraken X60 is a X61 edit: http://www.sevenforu...stom-icons.htmland http://www.sevenforu...make-image.html where the tutorials I used. a few steps are written a bit weird so if you have questions I'll help (shameless copy paste from my first answer)
  8. I'm not preordering anything. at least I hope that kojima does not get me on the hook with mgs V. gta v and mgs v are the only games I'm interrested this year. I have to stay strong!
  9. well when I was still going to school I turned a friend of mine into a PC enthusiast
  10. my gpu crashes sometimes on games that don't need that much juice.
  11. thank you! I'll try the QR because my eyes can be really sensitive
  12. hyperX. is it hyper ex or hype rex or hypereks. no idea. for asus I say it like the ending of pegasus because that's where the name is from
  13. I'm going to buy myself a new monitor. I had my eyes on the Asus Pb278q for some time but then the refresh came and now I'm confused Does anyone of you habe experiences with the newer model? or maybe even with both. should I stick to the old gold stadart or get the new one? thank you for your help!
  14. same here. but there are some games that are very small for what they deliver. mgs V: ground zeroes is just 3GB.
  15. I could but I prefer ordering stuff from germany so if I have to rma it or send it back it's quicker, easier and less expensive
  16. I had to RMA my current GPU (Gigabyte) because my system crashed in games and the cause was the GPU. It had to be sent to the netherlands and I did not see it for about 6 weeks. I got it back and they said everything was okay with it. I researched for days and found that the bios of the first revision of that card was awfull and did not get a update until now. flashed a bios of the second revision on the second bios chip of the card and tadaaa less problems. still waiting for a proper update
  17. yeah I saw it on amazon uk for half the fiios price but I'm in germany.
  18. other than a additional mic input I do not see more stuff on the product pages. both the e10k and the syba cost aroun 70€ and the e10k looks like it's better build and has a nicer design. but all in all I do not have to worry about that now. Onboard is fine and I'm happy to save some money here and there
  19. nothing is broken so no actual need for now. why do you recommend the syba dac over the fiio e10k? is there any advantage in the syba vs fiio? they are the same price here
  20. hey guys, I'm getting the AKG K240 MKII headphones soon. I'm going to use them with my desktop Pc. My motherboard uses a Realtek ALC892 chip. Do you know if I need an amp for these headphones? If I need one I would like to get the Fiio E10K but please tell me if you know about a better option Thank you!
  21. did someone of you try the Asus PB278QR? it's the same price as the PB278Q, just a newer revision with a different panel
  22. I would like to win the cpu so I have a solid basis for upgrading my current amd fx8350 build. I would exchange the Motherboard and cpu so this is a perfect opportunity. and the competition closing day is my birthday The Pc is used for gaming, recording and I wanted to stream. It did it's job well but I would really like some more intel power
  23. just got a Phanteks enthoo luxe. I have everything what I need + stupid lights. no need for any fractal R cases for me
