    Which Cherry MK switches for typing/gaming

    I know a lot of people will disagree, but I'd say definitely blacks for both typing and gaming. Everyone hates them at first which is why you see most of the negative reviews, because people tried them out at the store, felt buttons were harder to press and immediately dismissed them. They have...

    What is a healthy distance to have between your monitor and your eyes?

    I keep my monitor very close to my eyes, it's basically right in front of my keyboard, so it's like monitor, keyboard, forearms, me (+/- a bit depending on whether I'm leaning back or forward). It's a 24" 1920x1200 TN (not sure why that matters at all), and I was recently told I shouldn't have...

    The holly grail of mechanical keyboards!

    Just curious, why don't you want the numpad? Have a separate one or you want to save space? Don't you need it, I use mine a lot.

    Anyone have a Razer Blackwidow/Blackwidow Ultimate and happy with it?

    Okay, so I tried both the Das Professional Silent (browns) and regular (blues) at J&R today and I have to say I definitely prefer my Steelseries 6Gv2 for both typing and gaming. I know I'm going against the stream by saying that black switches are better than browns/blues for typing, but...

    Anyone have a Razer Blackwidow/Blackwidow Ultimate and happy with it?

    Hmm, I take back most of what I said yesterday about the 6Gv2, after using it for a day I've gotten mostly used to it and have started to enjoy typing quite a bit and my typing speed has actually increased. I found a place in NY that has the Das, so I'll go check out what typing on brown...

    Anyone have a Razer Blackwidow/Blackwidow Ultimate and happy with it?

    Well I'm surprised you liked Steelseries 6GV2/7G for typing. I didn't do enough research on switches before I ordered it, just figured it would be great on account that it's probably the most widely known and renowned mechanical keyboard, and it never crossed my mind any switch could be bad for...

    Mechanical Keyboard Guide

    For those of you that have a 6Gv2, do you use a wrist rest, and if yes what kind? I really love the 7G wrist rest, and I would pay the extra money just for the wrist rest, but that short backspace key really bothers me. So I'm looking at other options. If, by the way you have a 7G wrist rest...

    WTB: Steelseries 7G Palm Rest (up to $35)

    I have a Steelseries 6Gv2 and I love it. I would have bought the 7G, but I don't like the short backspace key. I love the 7G's big wrist rest though. I know it's compatible with the 6Gv2, so I'm looking to purchase one. If you have a 7G wrist rest and for whatever reason you don't need it, PM...

    Glossy or Matte?

    Yeah, I don't know how the whole glossy thing started, and I'm not just talking about screens, but also bezels and pretty much every kind of consumer electronics nowadays, peripherals, smartphones, etc. I think it started sometime in 2008, before that things were usually matte and rubbery, and...

    Am I missing something? Are AM3+ CPU's for sale?

    This is so stupid, the motherboards are out already, so are the 9-series chipsets, all the official logos and marketing and everything is ready, but the chips themselves won't be here until Aug-Sept. What is it with AMD and screwing up opportunities. This should have been out in April. Then...

    Samsung SA850 on PLS - the first review has been published (preproduction unit)

    I'm not as informed about this as you guys, but can someone give me their opinion on whether PLS is really that much better than IPS and in what ways. Also, will this monitor be much better than the Dell 2711? Aside from the difference in LCD tech, the only other difference i see is the LCD...

    Corsair Announces New Carbide Series Cases

    Does anyone know if the 500R will have the HDD dock? There is a tray on top, I can't tell if it opens up to an HDD dock or if its for something else (cup holder? :D) I gotta say my main quibble with the Carbide series is the bulges on the sides. It looks silly imo, like the cases are obese. If...

    Corsair Announces New Carbide Series Cases

    I don't like that it has a firewire port, who uses that? Hopefully the final version will have something more useful. And it looks like they fixed the USB 3.0 connection issue where you had to plug it in the back, which is good. I would say the extra $30 for the 500R is worth it, not only do you...

    AMD June 11 launch date?

    Well, they are late again, this should have come out in February, but they're not as late as they've been in the past. Has it been confirmed that the name will be FX? Just FX, that's it? Cmon, they need a new awesome name.

    Free Google Netbook! (cr-48)

    I think it's time to abandon all hope. Just like with everything else in life, a lot of people who didn't deserve to get one, got one. Whatever, life goes on. Probably on to more crappy stuff, but eventually odds are something good will happen to you. Don't count on it though.
