Xoza Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Yeh, I'm going to go with the G700, nice feel to it, I do like how the Corsair's buttons are implemented, but Its a bit smaller then my own, and would like an easier transition. Also I'm not sure yet about Corsair reliability just yet. Have a Power supply of theirs, but that's it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arokh Takakura Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Bad power surge blew everything in my pc but corsair components, if that's any testament to their reliability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valen Leinhardt Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 That must be one old, out of date computer it connects to, since that is pre-PS/2 connector!Ironically, most modern computers still come with RS232 serial ports, and Windows 7 will autodetect and configure a serial mouse when one is plugged in.

Then burst the mouse into flame because W7 is too epic for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disraeli Calderwood Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I just got the Cyborg R.A.T. 7 in, with a new mousepad. No promises it will help aim, but I hope it is as flexible on programming as my old Logitech G500.Looks like it's going to transform and eat my hand.

Xoza Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I'm still getting used to my G700... Its heavier then my previous, so when I'm not using it for my laptop, I take the battery out. It's also a little bit bigger, so I have to get used to it with my mousepad size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SalemAdams Wobbit Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 (edited) I already have a neat laptop, but I want to have a good desktop that is comparable or better than my laptop (so I can have a working desktop again). I'm wondering what you all think of this configuration.Specs:Case: RAIDMAX Altas ATX-295WBPower Supply: Antec EarthWatts Series EA-750 Green 750WCPU: AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor AMD FX-4100 3.6GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) Quad-Core ProcessorCPU Cooling unit: ZALMAN CNPS 7500 COOLER MASTER Hyper 212Motherboard: ASUS M4N98TD NVIDIA nForce 980a SLI ATX ASUS Crosshair V FormulaRAM: Crucial 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1333Video card: ZOTAC GeForce GTX 550 Ti (Fermi) 1GB GDDR5Sound card: on board (motherboard)Hard Drive: SAMSUNG Spinpoint 1TBOptical Drive: LG Black 12X Internal Blu-ray DriveOperating System: Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-bitI do not need a new monitor (yet), nor a keyboard or mouse or a wireless card. This will be next to a router, so wired would work anyway.Eventually I am planning on getting two video cards in SLI configuration. Please post your comments on your opinion of this build, and please do not turn this into an AMD vs. Intel or AMD/ATI vs. nVidia. I am wanting to make a reasonably priced gaming-class PC, under $1000, with blu-ray support, and 1TB Hard drive minimum, and at least a quad-core processor (no single, dual, or tri-core).Also, if you want to recommend something less expensive than this build, please show it to me.

Xoza Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 REALLY don't like ASUS, have had and seen a lot of trouble from them over the past years.Also not a huge Samsung fan, but I think they are getting a better then what they used to be.Just personal company preferences.Everything else looks great, exactly what I'd go for more or less.

Arokh Takakura Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Avoid Zalman brand, they look and peform well, but they are notoriously noisy, I had a Zalman Z9 case which was unbeleivably loud, even with resistors added to the fans to slow them down. I now have an antex 1200 case which has twice as many fans and generates 10% of the noise that thing did, unfortunately I still have a Zalman PSU, works great but it squeals and chirps when my frame rate is high or my mouse moves around while web-browsing, and that is annoying as shit. If its moving parts, stay away from them. Even their water cooling would probably be loud as hell. Corsair is the way to go if you want a cold processor.

Kellervo Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 What Arokh said - Zalman works, but it's notoriously noisy. Their cases don't make sense either (they come with five 'bays', but only one tray - so the other four bays don't have anything to actually mount drives onto). I'd rather get a Corsair or CoolerMaster for CPU cooling - they work, and they are much quieter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SalemAdams Wobbit Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 (edited) I'm not too concerned about the noise, but if you can suggest a specific model that is about $35 or less, and can fit an AM3 socket, I might go for it.Edit: Perhaps this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835186035 or this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835226050And I'm probably going get Arctic Silver as well.

Hunter Abrams Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 So I skiped a video card. DOnt know what you currently have. NOt sure if you are willing to skip a new card for a little bit and wait to get the "sli" build going. with it. But this is what I got. for around $936.92. Excluding rebates tax and shiping. Keep the HDD/blue ray/OS you chose too. I put those in the price I got too.MSI Z77A-GD55 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS CFX/SLI, Digi MOS, Military Class III, 1Sec OC,THXhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130644Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz (3.7GHz Turbo Boost) LGA 1155 95W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 3000 BX80623I52500K $15 off w/ promo code EMCNENJ23, ends 5/7 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115072Kingston HyperX Blu 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model KHX1600C9AD3B1K2/4Ghttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104221COOLER MASTER Elite 431 Plus RC-431P-KWN2 Black Steel Body (0.5mm SECC), ABS plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Casehttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119256CORSAIR Professional Series HX850 (CMPSU-850HX) 850W ATX12V 2.3 / EPS12V 2.91 80 PLUS SILVER Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supplyhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139011COOLER MASTER Hyper N 520 RR-920-N520-GP 92mm Sleeve CPU Cooler Intel Core i7 compatiblehttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103057 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xoza Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Corsair is wonderful. I put them into all of my computers.I picked up Corsair Memory for my upgrade, then grabbed one of their PSU's as well later on. No problems and no complaints (yet) about them. Local computer building company also uses them religiously, as they only use via their research 'the best and most reliable' parts. So I agree with Georges recommendation. They're very fairly priced as well!I'm not too concerned about the noise, but if you can suggest a specific model that is about $35 or less, and can fit an AM3 socket, I might go for it.Edit: Perhaps this: http://www.newegg.co...N82E16835186035 or this: http://www.newegg.co...N82E16835226050And I'm probably going get Arctic Silver as well.My next thing to grab is a case and I do love my fans, so I'd aim for several, as large as I can get... I think you'd all think I was crazy to live with how noisy my case and it's fans are (again, why I need to upgrade it). With the new cases these days, I don't know why they think putting the PSU on the bottom is a 'great' idea, something I would avoid, just doesn't make sense to me as heat rises and if you have water cooling problems, it would be the first to get wet. I guess I like the classic design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
