nvc: I'm looking to get a 120hz monitor, what exactly was your problem with the BenQ one? I'm torn between that and the LG. I'm mainly looking at the BenQ because its LED, so i automatically would assume it has better image quality.
Led has nothing to do with image quality (if anything it makes colors blueish), it's only refers to the light behind the actual panel.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=17735&post=323837 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 03:23:52 +0200 Reply by Vali https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-17735/page-4/?recent=323837#post=323835 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=17735&post=323835 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 03:21:55 +0200 Reply by Sketch https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-17735/page-4/?recent=323837#post=323130 Quoted from Atty

It's okay. But the coating wears of really quickly and makes it look and feel like shit. And you can't replace them on the razer keyboards, because they use non-standard caps.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=17735&post=322279 Fri, 29 Jul 2011 17:35:34 +0200 Reply by atmo https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-17735/page-3/?recent=323837#post=322275 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=17735&post=322275 Fri, 29 Jul 2011 17:28:38 +0200 Reply by CaNtThInKoFaNaMe https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-17735/page-3/?recent=323837#post=322245 Quoted from atmo
If you want a "laptop style" (scissor switch) keyboard just buy this http://www.dealextreme.com/p/78-key-compact-slim-usb-keyboard-black-160cm-cable-44378 Also if you buy anything by Razer that isn't a mouse you should probably get your head checked. As for the "portable" headset, buy one of these http://www.dealextreme.com/p/32328 http://www.theheadsetbuddy.com/Smartphone-iPhone-Headset-to-PC-Adapter-35mm-to-Dual-35mm-01-PH35-PC35.htm and use any iPhone earphone + mic combo, eg http://www.overstock.com/Electronics/MEElectronics-M6P-BK-Black-Headphone/5198670/product.html?cid=133635

any thoughts on the deathadder black edition ziggy? is it virtually the same as the deathadder v2? was thinking about picking it up soon
I wouldn't buy the black edition, I had it for 2 days before i sent it back and bought a standard one again. The sides look more "grippy", but in actual fact they are slippery as hell... playing straight after a shower was a massive no in that respect because the mouse literally just kept falling out of my hand... not sure what Razer were thinking for this one. So as pretty as it looks i would steer clear, if you want something a little different check out this guys ebay store, my brother just bought the dragon age 2 version: http://computers.shop.ebay.co.uk/PC-Accessories-/171959/i.html?_catref=1&_fln=1&_ssn=shop4up&_trksid=p3911.c0.m282]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=17735&post=321973 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 11:11:44 +0200 Reply by Hat https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-17735/page-3/?recent=323837#post=321971 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=17735&post=321971 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 10:49:40 +0200 Reply by Noeandee https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-17735/page-3/?recent=323837#post=321970 Quoted from Koeitje
[...] I don't think those cherries do nkro, you'd better check the geekhack wiki on that. Also those cherry keyboards are fairly light and not as well built as other mechanicals. If you dont go mechanical, don't get the cheapest keyboard you can find though. Get something that has decent kro @ gaming keys.
That specific model does has no key roll, but the keys are lasered. So they have smooth slippery keys. If you want red switches, with more rough keys and good looks and better quality, you'd best look at choc mini keyboard, or flico 104 with reds. The choc mini is less expensive. They have those in brown and reds. I saw the flico 104 on gamegear.be for over 200 euro's. It has keypad extra though (I was tempted, but it's an insane amount of money). What surprises me, is that there are no LED versions to be found. I really love LED keys in the dark, when I'm gaming :)]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=17735&post=321970 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 10:48:25 +0200
