Get a barebones full size kit and BYO silent switches. You won't find many prebuilts configured with silent switches, because the market…

The 5080 is *not* considered good value, the 5070 Ti on the other hand performs quite closely and is much cheaper. And even then I'd…

If you're not gaming much, why are you considering an RTX 5080?

Not hall effect (this is a *gaming* keyboard, no?)... plastic build... meh value.

>I use and i need the on/off button daily. May I ask why? My keyboards automatically switch off after an hour of inactivity, so I've never…

For myself personally, I'd rather a barebones kit where I can then choose the switches/keycaps/aesthetics myself, though I definitely get…

Pardon me, I used 3204, not 205g0. The latter is too thick for the U4Ts IMO. Yes, I lubed them myself. Lubing them doesn't necessarily make…

>**The WOBKEY Rainy 75** >Only gripe is the on and off switch is under the Caps Lock key. I've been using a QK65 and QK75 practically…

@SpeedRunnerLink Not in my experience, no. Have been running Boba U4Ts lubed with 205g0 for nearly 4 years at this point, they still sound…

It does work... lazy OP just posted the wrong link... # The correct link is https://www.culturekings.com.au/collections/hoods-2-for…

Jaduqimon was not making a serious comment... it is just that the past Pixel 6a and 7a models had battery issues, and thus purchasers of…

IMO it's a bit hard to clump 'mechanical keyboards' into one umbrella term, there are so many different sizes/switches/aesthetic/feel/sound…

If your primary use case *is not* competitive FPS games like Valorant, then you probably wasted your money on your $200 Logitech G mouse.

Honestly I just got used to headband, now after nearly a year of using it daily I don't get any sore spots on my head. YMMV.

I'm running a 12GB card currently, playing AAA games. The only two games I've run into a VRAM bottleneck are NBA 2K25 and CP2077, both of…

The 7800 XT doesn't have access to FSR4, so even though it has 4GB more VRAM it won't hold up as well as this 5070 in the future IMO. 12GB…

You probably don't need it then. Do your current headphones get loud enough when plugged into your source eg. PC?

Yes I'm aware, though at least for me personally it's pretty difficult to find a perfect seal from an off the shelf IEM; headphones are…

Sound is one thing, but what about the other features? IEMs have pretty good noise isolation but the XM5's ANC will still be better. No…

Fair, but you know it'll be a few years until then... If you need to buy *new*, and you need to buy *now*, and you're primarily playing…

HODL for...?

>I think thats common issue with old mechanical keyboard, at least in my experience. Nope, it's an issue with shoddy build quality. The…

I think the inno3D model and the Gigabyte Eagle models are 300mm or less, just have to look around.

> I run 4k at 200fps with no dramas or overheating With what, 4x frame gen? In what game? My laptop's iGPU can run Minesweeper at 2000 fps.

I do wonder when the day will come that consumer headphones won't be tuned as absolute bass cannons out of the box.

You playing at 1080p or 1440p/low graphics settings 4K? You putting it in an eg. SFF case for on the go or is it staying at home? One is a…

Is the laptop gonna be stationary most of the time or used frequently on the go? Is it being hooked up to an external monitor? Are you…
