FYI all Avago 9500 based mice (g9x, g500, xai) have some positive acceleration (about 5-10% nonlinear) that can NOT be disabled.
Logitech said they're working on it but there is still no fix for it atm.
Here's the thread about it...
or craigslist
No point in paying hundreds for a shitty lcd that you'll hate when you can find a nice crt for a fraction of the price.
I recently picked up a pair of great condition 21'' Trinitrons for only $20.
I still use an lcd for browsing tho.
Like I said, arena and ffa are great for pubs because most pubbers have a very wrong idea of how to play duel/tdm/ctf. Camping one item while spamming and you'll get destroyed against any competent player.
RA/CA is fun if you just want to dm. But even in that case I would rather play arenax or...
Doesnt work in theory either. You're going to be skipping every other pixel at 4/11, 3 out of 4 at 3/11, etc
For anyone who is still chasing the placebo dream known as "perfect 1:1 pixel movement" please read injx's posts here before determining whether it's really necessary.
Rocket arena/clan arena is a dumbed down mode made for players new to Quake so they could learn the weapons and movement w/o having to worry about item control, advanced positioning, etc.
Dueling is by far the deepest and most unforgiving mode. Where you actually have to out-think your...
It's actually going to be a worse version of the DA, since they're supposedly using the shitty Phillips Twin-eye sensor they used for the lachesis and not the quality Avagos found in the DA/Salmosa. So odds are it's gonna have a lot of tracking problems.
I had a voodoo 2 that I bought for Starcraft. And later a voodoo 3 for Quake 3. Think I paid around $200 for each.
I also wanted to buy the one that plugged straight into the outlet (V6?) But it never came out.
Umm what? Blacks have the highest resistance of those (80g peak, 60 at actuation), with the blues in the middle (50g) and browns being the softest (44g). Unless you're talking about the tactile bump. But the tactile bump on the browns is so subtle (when compared to something like the buckling...
Indeed the only sound that the blacks/browns make are from bottoming out when you hit the key too hard. The blues/clears have an artificial click mechanism built in to notify you when you've actuated the switch.
If you want to try out a mechanical board w/o spending a lot, you can pick up an...
Ridiculously overpriced.
A $5 WMO is still pretty much superior in every way (durability, grip, lower lift-off) other than the negative accel issues.
This mouse should retail for $15-20 tops.
I did the rename trick b/c people we're suggesting it at the time but it made no difference with the regular exe. As for the drivers, I used w/e was available when I first got the cards (about 2 weeks after they came out).
Both of them heated up A LOT, but neither became damaged. Guess I...
Exactly. This is just as stupid as people claiming that IBT killed their cpu/mobo/dog. If your hardware becomes defective after running a stress program then it was probably defective to begin with. If not, then your OC/volts were too extreme or your cooling is inadequate.
More bullshit...
Learn to read.
I specifically said gamers. I already have a 120hz lcd tv and while it's good for movies, it's absolute trash for pc games.
The reason I called lcd tv's 120hz fake is b/c they are really 60hz (maximum frequency signal they accept) with a ghost frame inserted in between...
What I dont understand is why more companies arent making more 120hz lcd's? (real 120, not the lcd tv bs) I know A LOT of gamers who would pay well for a decent 120hz monitor if one were to exist. It's been a year and the only choices we have so far are the rz2233 (which I dont like), the vx2265...
Application doesnt matter. I put the paste on the cpu and my q9550 at 3.8 doesnt even reach 60c load with IBT. TMI brand wont make that big of a difference (altho I do use mx2). Either your heatsink is bad or you seated it wrong.
