  1. You can try searching for Cloud replacement earpads, but you won't find any. Back when I was reading reviews of the Clouds, I read in multiple reviews that they're identical to the Takstar pro 80s. So I decided to search for replacement parts for the Takstar, and I was succesful. I found leatherette and sadly only grey velour pads, which would theoretically fit a HyperX Cloud . They are both around 10 bucks on AliExpress. OK, now that I can theoretically get replacement earpads if something would go wrong I'm sure that I'll be ordering the Cloud IIs
  2. Yeah, but it still would be nice if Kingston was selling separate earcups as replacement. Because if my leatherette earcups would get damaged, I'd have to use the velour ones, no leatherette replacements.
  3. That's good to hear. Where is it possible to get replacement earcups for the Clouds? Haven't seen anywhere.
  4. Hi guys! I've read a lot of reviews and I decided that I'm going to replace my 4 year old Koss SB-40s with a HyperX Cloud II. The only thing I haven't read about in any review is the durability of the leatherette/velour pads and the headband. My Koss SB-40 had very thin leatherette on the earcups, it started cracking and every time I take my headphones off I have to wash my ears because they are black. I hope that the Clouds are more durable, that's why I'm here. I'd be glad if there is a Cloud user who owns the Clouds since they came out and give me an honest review about the state of the earcups and the headband. (wouldn't mind pics) Currect state of my Koss SB-40s: (WARNING! It looks horrible)
  5. I won't be using it at all and I don't think my mother is secretly a gamer . The ASUS's got only an HD screen, would prefer 1080p. Is the display on the Z50-75 the same as the G50-80? Because they got the same body too. The FX-7500 performs slightly worse that the i5 5200U according to PassMark. The integrated graphics + the R7 M260 maybe outperform the R5 M330 but nothing GPU hungry will be ran on that notebook.
  6. Hi guys! I'll be buying a laptop for my mother. It won't be used for gaming at all (ok, maybe solitaire ). It'll be mainly used for Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint,...), checking email, Facebook, YouTube, browsing the web and some very light multitasking (all of these mentioned before). I'm from Slovakia but the eshop it'll be bought in has got an english website too. Here it is: https://www.alzashop.com/lenovo-ideapad-g50-80-black-d2417642.htm The specs are pretty decent for that price imo. Every other laptop in that price range has got worse specs. But of course my father had to complain about the looks, he likes the looks of this: https://www.alza.sk/acer-aspire-v15-silver-d2368599.htm(sorry, no english website for this one) The specs are significantly worse for the same price, 4GB of RAM, 500GB HDD, integrated graphics (even though I don't know how does the R5 M330 perform, I couldn't find any benchmarks). Both would be a huge step up from her old Acer Extensa 5235 (Celeron, 1GB RAM, Intel GMA 4500). And if you can, give me some feedback about these brands (Lenovo, Acer). I mostly heard good things about them. I couldn't find any info about the display panel types in these notebooks, but I suspect TN. That old Acer mentioned before has got very poor viewing angles, hope these ones don't.
  7. Hi! My friend is buying a PSU for his GTX 970. Which one would be better? Seasonic M12II-620 Evo 80€ Seasonic G Series 450W 82€ Seasonic S12II-520 64€ Well I know the Seasonic S12II-520 is a lower end one but I just put it there for comparison. And I read that the Evo is VERY loud, is that true?
  8. OK, so it looks like the MSI is winning, he will go for that one. I will give the "Best answer" to A.D.A.M because he was the fastest and he's wearing my name. ​But thanks to everybody who responded, I really appreciate it!
  9. There are ASROCK B75M R2.0 MSI B75MA-E31 But they look kinda cheap (and they are)
  10. And I know it very well and I said that there are no H77 boards available.
  11. Hi! My friend is buying a mobo for his i5 3470. There are no H77 boards available in the store where he will be buying it. So there are only these two options: MSI Z77A-G43 ASROCK Z77 Pro3 Which would be better? Please don't post links from Newegg, etc. because we are not in the US nor UK. EDIT: The case will be a Bitfenix Shadow but that's probably (100%) irrevelant, just saying...
  12. Congratulations Linus! I found your channel a year ago when the R9 AMD gpu series came out!
