wow, did not even see how much it was, why not just the g502?

[ministrsinister]

IMO I think you should see if you can get the price down <$1,500, I thought my build was amazing till I realized how much better I could have done for the same price.

 

Also, that mouse tho....

Second this, G502 is a great mouse, you can even get the fancy RGB one for less than $140

His build is an entire computer system, not just the tower like most. he can't really lower the price on much of anything there except his peripherals and cpu cooler (which i don't think he should do anyway)

 

As for cheap mice, I use a G302 (you can get G303 if you want RGB) and its awesome. And it doesn't feel like a brick in your hand either. feels like a mouse should feel.

I have the same processor, and unless you're going for unsafe voltages, you can get a Cooler Master Hyper 612 V2. I get about 70C at 1.450v. Motherboard can be cheaper too unless you like the functionality of that one. All peripherals can be way cheaper, 

Yeah.... but they're not going to be MUCH cheaper. and having cooling headroom is a good thing even if hes not going to go balls deep on his overclocks. More cooling headroom = quieter operation at the same performance levels.

Are you sure you want ASUS? I heard their customer support is terrible! I would consider ASRock, Gigabyte or MSI on the motherboard and on the GPU try to consider EVGA, MSI, Sapphire or XFX. (yes the last two is AMD only)

in terms of temperature or attractiveness?

Right but ... I'm just trying to express my own regret for my build; bought a Haswell processor right before Skylake came out, I didn't do my research well enough 

 

Best he tries to save where he can, but overall its a pretty sick build.

How is the G302 vs the G502? (not relevant but curious)

then how does a mouse improve temperature. as far as I know that thing is not a cooler

lol srry, wrong reply, i thought i was quoting the cooler comment, in terms pf mouse i didnr see the 302 and its running cheaper right now.. i guess i chose the g900 for cable management

I am using g402 and I am in love with it. Maybe because I have no money for another mouse but still. Thumb button, dpi, breathing light effect (no rgb though) and no spooky red laser when you lift your mouse up

Performance wise I believe its quite similar. the G502 would be technically better, but its "better" beyond the point of anyone, even pro gamers, being able to tell the difference. the advantage of the G502 is significantly higher DPI (up to 12k, compared to the 302's 4k... but the 303 has 12k as well). I don't know the lift off distance between the 302 and 502, but I use the 302 and its pretty good. I guess the other advantage of the 502 would be its customization options and added mouse buttons... But i consider that a whole bunch of unecessary fluff. I've been using the 302 for many years now. The only upgrade I want to make is to a G303 so i can RGB it haha. love this mouse.

... Well, yeah but... can your mouse do this?! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FmfTzpfwEEc

 

But in all seriousness revamping my build currently, will likely look into the 302/303 and use the 502 as a portable mouse

lolololol. thats great.

 

Don't get me wrong, the 502 is objectively better. it has more buttons, more features, more customization. But all of that comes at a price, and I really like the feel and shape of simple mice. I don't need all that extra fluff (and actually don't want it). The actual responsiveness and handling should be quite similar (dpi aside) is all I was saying. That being said I've never actually used the G502, so this is all based on paper stats. in reality they could very well be day and night different to the right person.
