GHUB is know to have issues. I cannot connect my G502 nor my G512. Maybe try changing the audio settings on your PC. You should be able use your headset without a software.
Chances of getting one from the original price is, fairly low. You will probably stay up late at night just before it releases or something and quickly snag one online. Just try and beat the scalpers to it.
Not the safest but if you don't knock it over you should be fine lol. I wouldn't personally do this I would just buy a cheap CPU clam-shell box.
Edit: they are pretty cheap so consider buying the box, but if your motherboard ships fast within a few days or so then don't buy it.
RTX 3000 has second generation ray-tracing, AMD 6000 is only first gen. RTX 3000 is more mature in most games with RTX on or off but AMD does make good GPUs. Mostly I would choose RTX 3000 unless you can take advantage of AMD Smart Access Memory with AMD CPU and GPU. But I would say the competition is very tight. Pretty even to me in most cases.
Noctua fans seems slightly expensive than others. Sure I have the budget but I still want to see if I can save more money. Are there any alternatives? Thanks!
I have had the same issues as you before on games like COD MW, Valorant and Apex Legends. Lowing the settings works good for me, there are still some FPS spikes for me, but they are either subtle or they don't happen as often.
What settings do you play on games? If you play on maxed out settings, try disabling a few of the settings or lowing them and see if there is an FPS increase.
Do you have overheating issues? If components overheat, they may drop their performance so that they do not overheat. Try checking the temperature of both the CPU and GPU while your PC is on idle and while gaming.
