  1. I'm looking to replace my G900 for a mouse that ergonomically fits my hand better. The way I hold my mouse is similar to a finger grip, except the top of my palm (under the knuckles) seems to often touch the mouse surface. I think the measurements for my hand are around 19cm long and 9cm wide. I don't care about either wireless or wired, or RGB light. What sort of mouse would you people reccommend?
  2. I'm interested in getting a pair of DT770s with 250 impedance. However, since I don't have an amp, dac or sound card, concerned if I don't have the right equipment for the pair. The motherboard is a B450 Gaming Pro Carbon Ac, with an ACL 1220 codec equipped. Can my mb power 250 impedance, or would I need an amp or sound card? Also, how does 250 compare to 32?
  3. Got a Gammaxx 200T for my Ryzen 5 2600, but confused how you apply thermal paste due to the square design on the bottom On Intel processors I thought you get the thermal paste and only put a pea sized blob on, and it would spread out as you put it on. However, due to the square bottom design of my cooler, I feel like doing it this way would not cover the entire surface area. It already has some pre applied, but I got some noctua paste I want to use. What is the proper way to apply thermal paste in this situation? Do you need to use a card to spread it out manually?
  4. I thought of getting a 280mm since I thought the radiator at the top would block exhaust, therefore I thi k creating more positive pressure.
  5. I mean radiator, which could decrease the size of the fans.
  6. Would it be a bad idea to have three 120s as intake and one 120 + two 140s (with radiator) as exhaust? Should I get a 240mm instead?
  7. Since my first 360mm strategy was a bad idea, I came up with a new one: Top mount a 280mm radiator, with fans at the bottom. Put three balanced airflow fans at the front (120mm), in order to provide decent airflow while moving through the dust filter effectively. The 140mm size of the fans in the radiator, plus a 120mm airflow fan at the back would balance airflow. The cooler I want to use is a Deepcool Castle RGB 280mm. I'm still either considering the Crystal 460x or Meshify C as my cases. I also want to get fans that are RGB, but since I don't want to mix fan manufacturers too much I'm probably going to go with CoolerMaster fans, since they offer static, balanced and airflow fans. Is this strategya good one? Any problems with it? How can I improve it? I know it would be worth adjusting the speeds of the fans, but I wish to know which designs are the best at their jobs.
  8. A top mount could also help with airflow, since it'll be exhaust rather than intake. Would there be any disadvantages to top mount? Also, what about 280mm?
  9. I'm talking about having a future build, with my old psu, GPU (Founders Edition 1080 from EVGA) and ram (if I don't upgrade the ram). The cases I'm thinking about will either be the Meshify C or the Crystal 450x.
  10. I prefer to just use a 2600 as a temperary cpu, 7nm looks like it'll come shortly. I'm not planning to buy an Aio until then. I'm planning to either use the Meshify C or Crystal 460x.
  11. And put a fan at the bottom of the 240mm to create more airflow? What sort of setting do you recommend for fan speed?
  12. I've been thinking of a 360mm radiator put at the front of a PC, later after building the initial thing. Problem is, however, that it muck up my cooling plan. In order to effectively push through air through a radiator, I would need fans that have sufficient air pressure, ideally static fans. However, since they produce less airflow (I think), and the exhaust is going to be less obstructed, I think it will create negative air pressure. If you saw Linus's video on it, it doesn't seem good. How do I create a balanced air pressure with a 360mm radiator at the front? Do I need to invest in a fan controller (or does the MSI BIOS already have that)? How about only a 120mm fan and 140mm fan exhaust? Do I need to use the same fans, or can I use different fans for the exhaust? Do I have all my fans designed for balance between pressure and airflow? (if you suggest fans, could they be RGB, please? Thanks)
  13. Haven't got the processor yet. I plan to get it regardless because CES 2019 is approaching and they may soon have a new Ryzen 5, I think. My ram is 2133mhz (I know, its slow). I've been thinking about upgrading the Ram to around 3000 and also getting an AIO, maybe 360mm, alongside or maybe even before getting the Zen 2 processor, but after the initial build. I'm in the UK, which means I'm looking at places like ebuyer and scan.
  14. Want to try out getting a Ryzen 2600 and overclocking it to 4.2ghz. What is the best aftermarket air cooler for this setup?
  15. How good are the Artics for the price though? I personally don't plan to spend more than £100 on a headset. I just thought they were good for the features, mainly the headband and the bluetooth.
