    Replace PSU?

    What do you mean by the fan dying? It still spins very smoothly when I rotated it while I was cleaning. I'll give it a second look for dedusting it.

    Replace PSU?

    Okay thanks for the info. Yeah I didn't really think I have a high load system. Any advice about my fan being always on?

    Replace PSU?

    Yes I used a compressed air can. Perhaps I didn't blow enough?

    Replace PSU?

    Yep I just did. Cleaned it out as well as i could without taking the case apart. I took the fan grill off and wiped and blowed the dust off.

    Replace PSU?

    I have a Corsair TX650 from 2010, and the fan runs all the time making a more noise than I'd like, though I've been putting up with it. I think it used to spin the fan down at low load. Not sure if this means it's going bad or the fan controller died. At what point is it typical to replace a...

    Looking for Keyboard and Mouse (Low finger stress)

    Humm well too late on the keycap order. I already placed the order, though I'm not certain it dosn't work from what you said. According to the reddit keycapsize guide posted above: "QuickFire Rapid Standard Key Spacing: Key sizes in the CTRL / ALT / WINDOWS / SPACEBAR / etc row are (from...

    Best cheap gaming mouse.

    Looks like I'm a little late, but if I was going to pick up a low cost mouse I'd get a Logitech MX310. And grats on the keyboard. I just ordered a quickfire rapid.

    Looking for Keyboard and Mouse (Low finger stress)

    Thanks for the suggestions. I liked the feel of the red switches when I tried them out because it was the lightest press. I felt that I'd probably type faster on a heaver switch or one with the tactile bump, but I'm looking for the option that will be eaisest on my fingers, espically when...

    Looking for Keyboard and Mouse (Low finger stress)

    Okay, so regarding the partial POM set. Would those key heights work with the standard QFR keys that aren't included in the POM set? Or what kind of keys would I be looking for to work well with those? I'm somewhat inclined to get the POM set and the double-shot PBT set, because the POM...

    Looking for Keyboard and Mouse (Low finger stress)

    I suppose they are decent quality other than the legends? I can see in the pictures that the printing isn't super crisp. Though I thought the blue/white ones looked decent in terms of color. I've been getting a bit frustrated seeing keysets with color combinations that look good to me, but...

    So many out of stock keysets out there... I just ran across this: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/kbtalking-doubleshot-pbt-keycaps?s=KBtalKing%20Doubleshot%20PBT%20Keycaps Specs: Cost: $70 Brand- KBtalKing 104 keycaps for standard ANSI keyboards PBT plastic Double-shot...

    Looking for Keyboard and Mouse (Low finger stress)

    Yeah I had been looking at the G2 Pro with PBT keys, though one of the reasons I was leaning toward the QFR is that it seems to be easy to get. I won't rule out the G2Pro though. Also, it's good to know the price range of the quality keycaps. I have seen a large range of prices and was...

    Looking for Keyboard and Mouse (Low finger stress)

    Okay, this is all making more sense now. I certainly have no plans for modding that involves desoldering. So I'm thinking Quickfire Rapid with red switches, thick PBT keys, and o-rings. Still sorting through keycap options though. It is not terribly obvious where to get certain things. I...

    Looking for Keyboard and Mouse (Low finger stress)

    I'm going back and forth on tenkeyless, as compact would be nice. Though I think I'd want a separate number pad if I went that route. Also, what makes the Filco and Leopold keyboards better for modding? For aftermarket caps, do you mean like from WASD? I see they also sell their own...

    Looking for Keyboard and Mouse (Low finger stress)

    Thanks for the feedback, I made it to Microcenter this evening, and I think the Cherry Red switches are the way to go for me. The o-ring mod sounds like a good idea. I didn't know this was an option. As for 10-keyless, I'm not sure if I can give up the number pad, and I'm not sure if that...
