Hey so Just a compilation of mini questions I had that I felt like wasn't needed for a single post. 

 

Anyone know of any good custom mouse pad makers that also make Extended mouse pads? I'm wanting a 20"x12" at least mouse pad. 

 

Is a 250GB SSD for gaming worth it? Fallout, skyrim, Games that have a lot of loading screens imo benefit from being on an SSD. 

 

Lighting a case would you use a cheaper single color light or go for a more expensive RGB setup? 

 

G502 or Mx Master ?

SSD is def worth it, very quick for loading all the screens. Go RGB, if you want to change it or make it cool its right there. Hue+ is really good for that. g502 for Gaming, MX Master for productivity

According to LTT, Most games do not load any faster from an SSD, I would research the game itself maybe.

I have tested a few games and While true It only speeds it up a few seconds some titles like Battlefield and Skyrim Modded. And a lot of Newer titles Definitely appreciate the speed.  

 

any game that is instanced, Will see Minutes reduced over the play time in an hour compared to standard HDDs.  

 

A great example is skyrim yet again. Fully modded It can take a full minute or two to load into the open world, And that first time load from the start menu? 2-5 minutes. 

On an SSD however less than a minute load start, and under 30 seconds always when transitioning from inside to outside.

This is awesome feedback! I assume you are comparing it to a standard 7200rpm sata drive?

Did everyone see that? Because I will not be doing it again.
