  1. Absolutely beautiful and the most comfortable mouse I'd ever use with palm-gripping.
  2. I own a pair of G4ME ONE's. Only get it if you want the convenience of a headset. Otherwise, you'll get a better bang for your buck by buying a separate microphone. Both the ONE's and HD 598's should be equal in sound quality.
  3. Something from Sennheiser's range would be good. I own a pair of G4ME ONEs and they're great!
  4. As far as I know, the Logitech HD Pro Webcam C920 is the highest-rated webcam out there. Seen it top the ranks on at least five different websites. I plan to get one myself.
  5. The Ducky Shine 3 is also out of stock in New Zealand. D: Gamdias also doesn't exist here. Too bad though, their keyboard looks quite nice.
  6. I would too if it weren't out of stock here and if the Blue LED Backlighting problem didn't exist. Such a shame.
  7. Hi there! After hours of research and opinions, I have finally chosen a new keyboard, mouse and mouse pad in which I would like you lovely people to comment on before I make my final purchase. Keyboard: Corsair Vengeance K70 (I wanted Cherry MX Reds and Red LED Backlighting.) Didn't choose the Razer BlackWidow Tournament 2014 because I didn't like the LED backlighting and mechanical switches. Didn't choose the Ducky Shine 3 because I hated the space bar. Mouse: Logitech G502 Proteus Core (I use a claw grip for gaming.) Didn't choose the Corsair Raptor M45 because the previous mouse had more bang for the buck. Didn't choose the Razer DeathAdder 2013 because it felt too generic with too little programmable buttons. Mouse Pad: Razer Goliathus Speed 2014 Extended (I wanted a mouse pad large enough for both my keyboard and mouse.) Didn't choose the Corsair Vengeance MM200 Extended Edition because it was $30 NZD more expensive for more or less the same quality as the aformentioned mouse pad. So, what do you guys think? Any advice or recommendations will be highly appreciated! This will probably be my last topic on this sub-forum anyway. Thanks!

  8. Dang. The G502 seems like a better bang for the buck, but that blue LED though...Keep those opinions coming!
  9. So, I'm in the market for a new mouse. I've tried the Razer DeathAdder and Corsair Raptor M45 before, and I felt that the latter better suited my needs as I use a claw grip when gaming. I've also heard about the Logitech G502 Proteus Core that released recently, but never got around to trying it. The Corsair and Logitech are the same price where I live. So, all you mouse owners out there, can you please give me your opinions or recommend me some other good mice? Thanks!
  10. Something in the Asus range, perhaps?
  11. Ahaha...funny that. I was actually on that page before you posted this. Thanks for the input! Good advice, looks like I won't be getting a sound card after all.
  12. Hi. So, I'm stuck in a bit of a dilemma here. Call me a guy who's arrogant or just curious, but I have to choose between these two choices: An Asus Maximus VI Gene or An Asus H81M-PLUS and an Asus Xonar Essence STX I might not consider myself an audiophile, but I do appreciate good sound. I am planning on a new build in which I will use for gaming and video editing, with a little bit of overclocking involved. Would it make more sense to go with the onboard solution or should I get a dedicated sound card? Thanks in advance.
  13. Beautiful combo. About to get the same pair myself. Do tell me how they perform for you?
  14. Definitely go with something from Sennheiser.
  15. Oh my. That is a very sexy mouse indeed. Almost the same price as the M45 too. Will consider. Thanks for the recommendation!
  16. No preferred manufacturers at the moment. Corsair's products seems very stylish, not sure about their quality though. On the other hand, I agree that Logitech has some top-notch stuff, but they don't have a lot of backlit keyboards that appeal to me. That could be an option. Do you have any keyboards in mind that fit my criteria? Have you had any issues with your Razer products so far? How have they been performing? How are your Cherry MX Blues for gaming?
  17. Hello all, I'm planning to get a new keyboard as my old one seems to be dying on me. I'll keep it short and simple. Wants: Cherry MX Reds or Blues Preferably Red LED Backlighting No TenKeyLess Macros are Unnecessary Good Build Quality Uses: Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Various AAA Titles Composing E-mails and School Reports I would also like a matching mouse to boot. Budget is probably not an issue here. I have considered the Corsair Vengeance K70 + Corsair Raptor M45, but I thought I could get better for less. I have considered the Razer Blackwidow + Razer Deathadder, but I tend to stay away from their products. I have considered the Ducky Shine 3, but the spacebar on that keyboard looked absolutely out of place. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
  18. I actually planned on using the UNi Xonar Drivers if I got the sound card. Are those also bugged?
  19. Alright, I guess I'll hold off the sound card until I get a better pair of cans. Thanks for the advice, guys!
  20. Hey, guys. So, I bought a pair of Sennheiser G4ME ONEs a while ago. Not the best purchase I've made, I know. Now I'm considering getting a sound card since I read somewhere that the G4ME ONEs use the same drivers as the ones in the HD598s, meaning that this upgrade would be reasonable compared to using regular gaming headsets. Is it a good idea to get the Asus Xonar Essence STX for this headset? Should I get a lower-end sound card? Or should I not get one at all? Thanks for future feedback!
  21. Ahaha...funny that. It seems I have forgotten to mention that Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is probably my favourite video game of all-time. Whoops.
  22. Thanks for the quick advice, guys! I have considered dropping the monitor, and I probably will at this point. As for the custom water cooling loop, I guess I'll also stick with the stock cooler since overclocking really isn't my thing.
  23. Hey there, you lovely people! First timer needing some advice here, so I'll keep things short and simple. Budget: $3,000 NZD + Location: New Zealand Specific Use: A Lot of 3D Gaming (AAA Titles), A Lot of Electronic Music (House), A Bit of Video and Image Editing (Adobe Programs) Overclocking: None http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3urSU I also plan on building a custom water cooling loop later on. So... Does Camelopardalis the PC look good to go? Thanks for the future feedback!
