    Logitech G512 and strange cleaning issue.

    So i literally drenched the keys in alcohol lol. Didn't even bother with cue tips. I just used rolled strips of toilet paper, fully drenched in alcohol to the point a pool formed under the keyboard after i tilted it. I spend quite a bit pressing and jiggling keys around, flicking them with my...

    Logitech G512 and strange cleaning issue.

    The strangest thing is that just blowing at the key makes it work every single time, just not for long. And like i said don't even need to remove the cap. I just can't understand the mechanic of it. Also, if dirt is the issue, why is it those only keys are affected? The entire middle part of...

    Logitech G512 and strange cleaning issue.

    So, after about a couple of years of use, this keyboard started to have issues with keys not working right. Double clicks or clicks that only occured after mashing the button repeadetly etc. Only happens to the same keys, which is basically the entire top row from F1 to Pause, the entire numpad...

    Samsung Odyssey 1440p VA monitors 240hz curved

    No i'm talking about a panel revision. Amazon even has two gategories you can buy, 2020 version and 2021 version, which according to some comments i've seen are not actually entirely the same.

    Samsung Odyssey 1440p VA monitors 240hz curved

    One question. There's some comments i found on google that suggest the newer version of this panel is not as good as the older one? Is that actually the case?

    How accurate is AMD's temperature control?

    Has anybody tested how accurate the AMD one is? On the 27GL850 the calibration for the sRGB mode is CLEARLY not the same as in the other modes and i don't have any other mean of comparison for the AMD temperature control. Right now i just prefer it because i can at least change the contrast...

    How accurate is AMD's temperature control?

    I just tried this on my 27GL850 and the results kinda suprised me. I don't have any instrument to measure how close i got to sRGB but at glance it actually doesn't seem bad at all. Seems like i don't have to use the sRGB emulation mode of my monitor (which locks me out of everything except...

    Samsung Odyssey 1440p VA monitors 240hz curved

    Well, this is disappointing: https://www.reddit.com/r/Monitors/comments/pjgoxb/what_are_your_current_opinions_on_the_samsung_g7/ "I had a g7 32 for 9 months or so and ended up selling it to grab an XB323U GX.

    Is the flat one going to be VA also? This looks great but the price is a bit out there.

    Shopping for a VA screen to pair with my LG 27GL850

    So i'm the only one with the idea of getting BOTH IPS and VA? Man does this industry suck. Ayy this would be a pretty severe deal breaker.

    Shopping for a VA screen to pair with my LG 27GL850

    When i tried those Samsungs (27CHG70) i had no problem with ghosting (i saw it, but i wasn't too bothered by it) but the blotching was super annoying and a deal breaker. I found this post which seems to suggest there ARE in fact differences between VA screens...

    Shopping for a VA screen to pair with my LG 27GL850

    I like my LG and i've been happy with it since i bought it but that low contrast ratio and IPS glow is really starting to grate on my nerves. I use my PC for everything, including watching movies and i was thinking of adding a secondary screen to cover up that deficiency. I'm wondering if there...

    32GN600-B, anybody has experience with this monitor?

    I have an LG 27GL850 and i was looking to complement it with a VA for better contrast to use as an alternative. I'd prefer a flat VA as i've had some bad experiences with curved Samsung models (mostly some blotching or clouding, which kind defeats the point of having a VA). I was originally...

    Outdated game mechanics.

    That's because you don't realize how much actual "meat" has been stripped from the genre, starting with exploration, complex level design, clever enemy placement and strategic gunplay. There's a reason people still play games like the original Doom to this day, and why they keep making content...

    Is 2021 a dud for gaming?

    Doom Eternal was a breath of fresh air for me. On Nightmare, the game actually requires a kind of skill that has been kinda of missing in modern shooters. This is an overused comparison but in a sense it shares something with games like Dark Souls. The room where you get the super shotgun is a...

    Blizzard/Activation being hit by the Perfect Storm. Will they survive?

    The issue is this "believe women" crap, another example of why innocent until proven guilty ought to apply in all walks of life. It would also help if it was a little harder for companies to just fire people on a whim because it is easier to get rid of an accused indivial rather than attempt...

    Currently downloading games on steam, disk is at 50 degrees, GPU is in idle. Of course, today is pretty damn hot. Still pondering if to get an heatsink or not. [EDIT] Opps forgot that i'm converting a file in handbreak so this time it is the CPU that is at max temp. So there you go, being so...

    8TB Western Digitinal external spinner doing bizzare things

    Granted that i brushed over your post, but i was itching to make those points. Islam is not just the Quran and the hadith or the sunnah, it is also the commentary and interpretation, a lot of modern Muslims have forgotten this because they are either Wahabis or Salafi, puritanical sects of...

    I'll quote this to make my point: sensations have nothing to do with anything. They are irrelevant. It does not matter what makes one feel bad or good, and sensations cannot be the base for any form of sane social order, not the least because what makes one feel bad can be altered through...

    I'm not trying to stir up anything, i'm just expressing my opinion on the matter. I do not think there is anything offensive about dressing up as a black person. In fact, one must point out that there's actually no such thing as "blackface" at all, because all those people who are getting...

    Blizzard/Activation being hit by the Perfect Storm. Will they survive?

    The presumption of innocence should apply to all walks of life. Unless you wanna go back to the 16th century. I mean, what are we arguing about here, that we should presume innocence only when the threat is jail time but freely ruin someone's life in every other way based on an accusation...

    How am i wrong? Or rather, which part? The blackface? The cultural appropriation, or both? In either case, wrong back at you. When you start to take issue with stuff like Black Pete, something from a completely different country that has nothing to do with black people at all (Black Pete is...

    There's nothing much to see though. All the accused (or anybody who was old and male really) are stepping down. Company is getting more woke to "fix" the problem (because that follows somehow), with some firms stepping in suggesting all sorts of equity programs. The games will get even worse...

    Warhammer40k: Darktide (40k Vermintide)

    I looked this up and it's basically some working class pride thing. I think it's just an excuse i have a feeling Space Marines wouldn't fit into the Left for Dead/Vermintide mold. There's always Space Hulk. Not the greatest game but it's certainly pretty to look at and it nails the Warhammer...

    Blackface is not offensive. Nobody cared about people dressing up as African Americans until the woke lunatics made it an issue. Same with other made up "crimes" like cultural appropriation.

    Is there? Show us the proof. Show us the proof any rape actually happened, and real workplace abuse actually occured. I don't mean "i recieved this vaguely critical memo which is actually in the main quite positive to me" kind of abuse. I mean, actual, concrete abuse.

    It doesn't matter what's wanted or not, it's still not rape. No woman has ever died after recieving "unwanted" attention from men. No woman was ever traumatized by a botched attempt at flirting. We are at a point now where you can't even "touch" a woman when taking a picture. You have to hover...

    Large capacity SSD for gaming, does speed really matter?

    So i did some tests, and so far the worst the drive got is 45 degrees. It sits at 35 degrees when both the GPU and the drive are idle. I guess it's not a big deal to have the furnace, i mean, my GPU next to the drive slot.

    There's some story in WoW, but it ends abrutly after a certain point (like the whole Defias subtplot in the human areas that fizzles out suddenly without warning).
