    Corsair MM300 Extended Mousepad - $14.99

    New Corsair MM300 mouse pad finally arrived! It looks and feels premium! I'm also using it with a new Lamzu Thorn Fnatic 4k mouse. Running it at 3200 dpi and 2khz off the new 4k wireless receiver and it feels buttery smooth. :)

    Is there a gaming mice that is not garbage ?

    I've tried every brand from Razor, Corsair, Logitech, Hati, etc. They all tend to die within 2 years. Scrollwheel tends to go first. Longevity doesn't seem to be something these gaming mice are designed for. They are made to be light and quick, but durability doesn't seem to be in the design...

    $2,500 RTX-5090 ( 60% faster than 4090 )

    They are not called "Ngreedia for nothing". I am not surprised by their crazy pricing anymore. Watch them sell the 5090 for $2500 and say well it's faster than the 4090 and "inflation". Big wallet epeen buyers will still buy it. And then watch them price the 5080 at $1999 and watch it not...

    Nvidia 4xxx in stock on their website

    Those 4090's are listed at $1,799-$2,199 so you're not getting MSRP of $1599 so I don't know what you're talking about. As for the 4080 and lower models does it matter? It feels like the 5000 series is about to drop in a few months. They are still trying to sell stock at slightly marked up...

    Samsung Odyssey OLED G95SC 49" DQHD (5120 x 1440) 240Hz UltraWide Curved Screen Gaming Monitor

    Deal is still alive on Amazon, if you check the coupon box you get $100 off and this becomes $999. I've seen it in person and it feels a little too skinny for me. I know weird to say for a 49" monitor. It's really just an elongated version of my current 34" ultrawide. And it doesn't seem...

    Corsair MM300 Extended Mousepad - $14.99

    Just ordered this beauty from Amazon. I figured the current 50% off the usual $30 was worth mentioning. This extended version will cover your whole desktop 36.6"x11.8" with a non-slip rubber backing. Purchase link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01798VS4C?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1...

    Thinking about getting a 7900xt or xtx, but worried about my psu and coil whine problems people are reporting

    If you're going AMD, Sapphire usually makes the best AIB versions. Also I've heard their customer service is on the better end if that's important to you.

    Performance per watt/value proposition, GPU upgrade question.

    If it's performance per watt that you're after and you need to do about 120 FPS at 4K for around $600... then yes the 4070 Super is hard to beat. The only other alternative is probably the 7900 GRE which will soon be out for sale for $549. It still uses more power than the 4070 Super so if...

    7900xtx or 4080 super?

    Oh it's dead all right. I think he might be talking about the multi-chiplet design for GPUs that is rumored to come out with RDNA5. But that's two generations from now. RDNA4 from all reports will stick with a single monolithic GPU design. This new chiplet design has already been copyrighted...

    Thinking about getting a 7900xt or xtx, but worried about my psu and coil whine problems people are reporting

    I would just buy it from a store with an easy return policy. I buy stuff from Best Buy and Amazon with zeo return issues. You can't really tell this stuff, like noise, until you plug it into your system and it can vary from card to card even from the same manufactuer. 850W gold rated power...

    Radeon RX 7900 GRE Review

    It is what it is. Doesnt beat the 7900 XT and just slightly beats the 7800XT. If you shop specifically for the just over 500, just under 600 price range then this card might make sense, otherwise it's meh. If you do buy a 7900 GRE, the Nitro+ version is obviously the one to buy though as it...

    Radeon RX 7900 GRE Review

    I just watched Gamer's Nexus review. And a pricetag of $549 makes a huge difference. $649 would have been dumb. So the 7900 GRE slots in between the 7800 XT and the 7900 XT in price and performance. I just don't know how many people are looking to spend $550 for a middle of the road video...

    7900xtx or 4080 super?

    You are right. They are both greedy. When the 4080 was announced for $1200 and the 7900XTX for $999 then the numbers made sense. When the 4080S was announced for $999, AMD refused to cut the prices on its 7900XTX which shows that it is just as greedy as Nvidia. If they had cut their price...

    Radeon RX 7900 GRE Review

    7900 GRE for $650 is a joke. You can pick up the 7900XT forr $699 in some cases. And the 6800XT for $530 is a far better value. Again AMD fails to deliver a part that will capture the market because of weird pricing schemes.

    4080 Super: New Owners Thread - Share your experience!

    Anything that lowers the chance of your GPU burning up is a step forward. It's kinda sad how bad the original 12v plugs were. Hopefully these new power connectors ship free with the 50xx series card. Or maybe there's even a step up from this by then.
