Pink is a power color tho

880s are the most comfortable out of the three if you don't have a massive head.

Done. Weirdly though, when I tried lowering instead of boosting it didn't sound as good on my Logitech G230s or Kingston HyperX Clouds. On the DT770s it's basically the same though. I had yet to notice clipping or distortion though.

I get what you mean. I just returned the 250-500 Hz down back to default. I would agree that it sounds a bit muddy or less precise. EDIT: I can't tell which one I like more though. The difference is too small.

I left the highs at default, and raised my bass and mids since the DT770s (and 990s) have slightly recessed mids. I also own the HyperX Clouds, but I didn't raise the highs since that was too harsh for me. I only raised the bass for the HyperX Clouds.

I have both. They do not sound similar at all. The Clouds are more comfortable, have substantially less bass and more clarity in the high end (which you might find harsh if you like the G230 sound signature).

It depends on how close you want to put the mic to your face. The closer it is, the quieter the computer fans are relative to your voice so you can turn it down. Also depends on how loud your computer fans are. Keep in mind the SM57 is leagues ahead of the AT2020, and requires quite a bit of gain. With the AT2020 USB volume is not an issue at all. I use an AT2035 and keep my fans at 600RPM and they are not audible even without a noise gate. I have my mic on a boom arm which sits about 6" off to the side of my face.

Just curious how many people leave EQ flat, or if they tune it? Do you use hardware or software? I've got DT770s and I use EQ to raise the lows and mids and honestly I'm pretty happy the way it is right now. I just use the Realtek drivers so that way it EQs all the audio, instead of just EQing music from winamp for example.

Why would you describe the monitors at the start as having 26.5 million pixels? Nobody knows how many pixels their monitors have... Why not use a measurement that actually means something to people like '3 4k monitors' or 'equivalent to 8 1440p monitors', 'equivalent to 12 1080p monitors' etc. EDIT: Great video overall though, that's just a minor gripe.

Since the LP2s are on sale right now... LP2: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HYH7HXA/ref=psdc_172541_t1_B003BYRGKY Boom mic pro: http://www.amazon.com/V-MODA-BoomPro-Gaming-Headset-Headphone/dp/B00BJ17WKK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1422253686&sr=8-1&keywords=boom+pro+mic+v+moda&pebp=1422253689339&peasin=B00BJ17WKK Would these make a good combination for a gaming headset? I currently have the Logitech G230 and Kingston HyperX Cloud. The G230s are okay sounding, however they're extremely uncomfortable. The HyperX Cloud is comfortable, but has no bass. I've read that the LP2 is great for bass heads and the booom mic pro would mean I can use it for skype and teamspeak. Is this a good combination for under $200?

I like bass, and the Kingston lacks quite a bit of bass (for me), does anyone have any experience with the Fidelio L1, and does it have more bass than the HyperX Cloud? EDIT: Just to be clear, the Fidelio L1s are available on Massdrop for another 16 or so hours; just wondering if anyone knows anything about them.

G230 is better than G430. I have both G230 & HyperX Cloud. Build quality: HyperX Cloud Mic: Tie Comfort: HyperX Cloud Highs: HyperX Cloud (more clarity) Mids: HyperX Cloud (more clarity) Lows: G230. The G230 has a lot of bass while not being too 'rumbly'. (stronger bass same clarity) Positional accuracy: G230 Noise isolation: HyperX Cloud The HyperX Cloud is like double the price of the G230 though... so up to you. I honestly don't like one over the other but I wear the HyperX Cloud because they're much more comfortable. The earpads of the G230 are very scratchy and get uncomfortable after an hour or so.

Right, and using FLOPS is a good indicator of performance on GPUs? This is what I'm trying to get at. There's no blanket unit to use as a measure of performance. http://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/2460/radeon-r9-290x.html http://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/2512/geforce-gtx-780-ti.html A 290x has 5,632 GFLOPS and a 780ti has 5,040 GFLOPS. Does this mean the 290x is faster than the 780ti? With calculus, you have clearly defined variables. But the 'performance' of a card is not clearly defined. You can say 'Oh, a 290x is faster than a 780ti in Metro LL,' but then a 780ti will also beat the 290x in other games. Which one is better? It depends what you're going to use it for.

Perform better how? You do not have an a=b+c equation using power, performance and TDP for 2 big reasons. 1) You can't even measure performance reliably since a 760 would beat a 290x in editing in Adobe due to CUDA. So performance in what? 2) For arguments sake, we'll say that there is a unit for performance. But now how are you going to convert this performance unit into TDP or power consumption? 3 Performance points = 20 TDP? Even if this were true for one card, it will not be true for another of a different generation or brand. There are too many variables, you cannot give it a simple equation.

Not sure how this makes sense in your mind, but what is the unit for performance? Heaven benchmark scores? Firestrike scores? Crysis 3 FPS? LOL seriously to reiterate what Lays said, wut?
