  1. I'm still using an old Dell keyboard I got ages ago from my Grandpa, would love and appreciate something with a backlight as I like gaming in a dark room.
  2. Yeah, most TV's these days should, my 1080p TV is old(2008) and back then most of them didn't upscale. Definitely want to upgrade soon and get a 4K Blu-Ray player.
  3. Admittedly, I'm a Sony fanboy... it's unrealistic to game at 4k under $500 console but if it can upscale to 4k and play 4k Blu-Rays, I'd buy another one for sure.
  4. I would like one of these simply because as a content creator, I need more storage than 120GB. Everyone should use SSD's because read/write speeds and durability, also far more convenient for mini ITX builds.
  5. I would love to win the Kova, it's grey so it fits my color scheme and I have small to medium sized hands but my problem is my thumbs are small so the button placements seem perfect for me.
  6. Love how compact this Magnus is, perfect for the living room....the specifications and performance blew my mind.
  7. Slow Motion video capture! that's AWESOME! would be great for someone like me who takes a lot of pictures and videos of their animals.
  8. Alright, thanks man, I think I'll get the plus just to be safe.
  9. I guess I should have been clearer, my question is... is the headphone jack on USB microphones worth the extra expense? Also what other mics besides the 2020 and Yeti are worth looking into?
  10. Heya! Recently got $100 for my Birthday, only thing missing from my build is a good microphone to pair with my Sennheiser 558's. I'm also a digital Artist and have gotten requests to do some streaming/videos of me working so this will come in handy for more than just gaming in the future. I could and may still buy a Focusrite but at the moment, I want to use this on my PS4 as well so USB is the way to go for now.
  11. I got confused, I thought it was an entirely new cooler, lol thank you. Thinking of getting grey and blue, add LED's to one.
  12. I just bought the R1 Ultimate for my new build in March! I love it, will these new colors be interchangeable with the Ultimate?
  13. After my NHD14, probably never buying Noctua again... it performs well but theirs plenty of other coolers that perform just as good and look nice so, meh.
  14. I have to buy this, some of my favorite bands are in the soundtrack.
  15. Vessel Username: JonD8 Watched, Favorited and commented videos: https://www.vessel.com/videos/G-DUjgUyYand https://www.vessel.com/videos/JemZ8O7Hy I also retweeted the LinusTech giveaway video. https://twitter.com/JonD7
  16. In the early 90's my Grandfather gave my Mom a PC, I was fascinated by it... didn't have internet until around 97 then I started PC gaming a few years later. I'm disabled and honestly, it's my only way of communication with the outside world, I learned how to spell and read with my PC. Always wanted to learn how to build PC's but I wasn't confident I was intelligent enough, fast forward to 2009 and my friend Bradley from Australia talked me into it.
  17. Dogs FTW... we have rescued a lot of cats and dogs, I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat. I think cats are stupid animals, lol.
  18. O_O hot damn! Going to look up benchmarks asap!
  19. I wouldn't buy either cooler and switch fans straight away, it would be somewhere down the line(much like overclocking, I'm not doing that this soon) I like the Be Quiet Dark Rock Pro 3, it's definitely the best looking cooler but you're stuck with Be Quiet fans as I don't think the mounting system will let you fit much else(Slick couldn't fit Noctua's on it) I thought about slapping some Noctua industrial fans on the D15 and of course lowering the rpm but I don't think they fit? Is MNPCTECH the only place to sell Dark Side LED strips?
  20. It's the last component I need for my rig and can't decide! I know out of the box the D15 is better performance wise and the PH-TC14PE looks nicer but what about a fan change? Have any of you changed either coolers stock fans? Another question... any suggestions for case lighting?
  21. Thank you all! I decided to go with an EVGA SC 980+backplate, I'm sure the AMD 300 series card will be excellent but I want a Shield tablet and I don't trust them when it comes to heat output(not for my environment anyways)
  22. I definitely see myself upgrading to a new monitor next year, either 4k or 1440p... I just need an IPS monitor, need color accuracy for painting. Is a 980 enough for 1440p gaming?
  23. I ordered everything for my build except for two parts, heatsink and GPU... How is scaling on the 970 and 980? let's say in 2016 I buy a 4k monitor and my 900 series card isn't enough can it upscale 1080p or 1440p to 4k? I ask this because my old ATi 5850 doesn't allow me to lower my resolution to 800 then scale to 1200. I'm really confused as which card to buy.
