The ridiculous amount of times I've seen people state that an RGB Keyboard is necessary. 

 

 

but it is.

 

never underestimate build aesthetics.

you can have perfectly good aesthetics without rgb lighting.

I would be fine with it if it were the finishing touch and not the added cost on top of an i3 for gaming, where a much better processor and motherboard could have been selected.

 

Each to their own though, my G910 was one of the last things I added.

Peripherals are one thing, but i=I believe a good looking, durable case is important. 

 

If it is the difference between a 6600k and a 4690k, I'll go Haswell for the better case

"My computer is so much better than yours."

"how so?"

"my computer has like 500 gigs"

"of what?"

"memory you idiot"

 

-.-

backing this one.

 

although, for me it'll have to be my sister that refuses to play sims 3 at any other resolution than 640x480...

EDIT: forgot to add: "because it looks better that way, otherwise its so tiny."

 

also, she claims it lags at higher res, maybe because her laptop is one clog of dust...

Not a idiot, but it still pissed me off:

 

guy decided, rather than lower his graphics settings, to lower his resolution to 1680x1050

They kinda don't though. 

 

Apple has some of the best security software out there, it is hard to infect a mac, you have to actually try.
