What's your latest tech purchase?

[plastiscɧ]

Some1 was good this year...

 

[phill]

Alright, no more teasing.

• RAMA U80-A SEQ2 - SOYA e-white - Ax PCB
• 65g Turquoise Tealios (Krytox 205g0 + 0.15mm switch films + stock springs w/ Krytox 105)
• GMK screw-in stabs (bandaid mod + Superlube 92003 + 24awg heatshrink)
• Hammerworks CRP Desko PBT + GMK TA90 accents

A little less ergonomic than my X60 R (has same 6 degree angle but a lower front height), but otherwise a flawless daily.

This look so reminds me of a Commodore type keyboard.. Although I think by the Insert key to the right, that looks like one angry key.....

 

[onemanhitsquad]

First impressions of the keyboard are okay. Just need to get used to this as this is sooooo tiny!

ha!...wife just got us both one of these , I use the TKL version regularly....funny how I tripped over your posts

really hope best buy has this on display someday, i really think i would love that form factor. as i don't type the professional, but my own hybrid way since i was a teen. lol i am slow on full size keyboards, but smaller form factors i tend to go really fast... but i am worried that one may be almost too small of a form factor... so need to try before i buy type deal

Need still to get used to all the shortcuts etc. but otherwise I like myu own. How's that yours?

 

[onemanhitsquad]

You are right on the shortcuts...I hope they put a heavy duty switch under the "Fn" key cap!...gonna be working it over!

my wife runs 2 machines from one desk and she really likes the foot print...she already said she may get another one and replace her Ducky...and she loves the Ducky

You probably wouldn't like this KB/mousepad then hahaha. ...or maybe it would be the motivation to get a larger desk?? (which I'm in the market for). Got this pad a week ago.

haha...mind you , I am not "judging" , but I used a desk like that years ago when it was all I had...called it "The Knee Buster" !

good luck on finding your upgrade...for a full sized "user interface" that kb looks pretty clean

I have a anne pro II love it

 

[Athlonite]

As much as I enjoyed using the G613 I just couldn't use it at night without having to turn on a light so I could see the keys so unfortunately it had to go (no under key lighting)
and it's replacement is the G815

which I managed to purchase for $120 less than its current price of $329NZD so the price was $209NZD still pissed at having to pay this much for a keyboard but the good ole G105 was starting to show signs of becoming unreliable

[Ibizadr]

So today I got a Bluetooth adapter to use with my Xbox controller. Hope it works good

 

[oobymach]

Another mouse because why not. Click to enlarge. Been eyeballing this little guy for a while and it was on sale, really like it so far.

I love my G613, for one it has insane battery life and 2 I only paid $40 for it new. I've been eyeballing other wireless keyboards but can't find one that can beat the 613 (I'm not a fan of clicky keys). Literally the only drawback is that it doesn't have backlighting. Have you tried any gaming with the 815 yet?

It wont work well.
100% you need to get the microsoft USB dongle and not use bluetooth - it's a lot more reliable, MUCH faster response times, as well as enabling the other features (audio ports work, 4x controllers off one dongle, etc)

My old boot SSD finally has a new home...

Tested it over USB 3.0 and 3.1.

Sure, it's under-running the SSD, but that's fine. After three years of service and 28TB of writes, it needs a break anyway.

Using this as my new Ventoy/portable storage drive.

Yeah I have and it's bloody great not that the 613 was a slouch by any means but now I can game in the dark and not have to worry about hitting the wrong key I'll keep the G613 as my backup KB

Yep. Stuck it on the controller.

 

[FireFox]

Bought a cheap mouse ( €15 ) to replace my secondary one which was a 10 years old Hp.

Trust GXT 781 Rixa

I don't know if i should trust Trust

The mouse pad is ugly as F@ck

Is the lag issue just from personal experience or is it common?
I use my v1708 controller over an ASUS BT400 dongle, and I haven't noticed any lag compared to wired mode.

Right? That's obnoxious. It should be green.

Is this how to Metaverse?

One of the best purchase I've done recently the LG Puricare with VoiceOn mask. Its a smart mask that follow your pattern of breathing and filters incoming and outgoing air. It also has a voice amplifier with a push of a button.

So I guess THIS is how you Metaverse, right?

This is pretty hard to get unlike the LG so I waited for the drop and got one in the December drop. The Razer Zephyr while being more expensive than the LG Puricare feels cheap. The fan is noisy and just have 2 speed settings - drone or biplane. The air circulation is not smart. It just sucks air in all the time but also has double filtration. The light showing your mouth is great only hindered by the fact that no one can hear you when you wear this.

With all that said. It has RGB so its an IGN 10/10.

I use my v1708 controller over an ASUS BT400 dongle, and I haven't noticed any lag compared to wired mode.

Both, facebook PCMR groups get asked "why does Xbox controller lag so bad" every 15 minutes (several times a week, but feels like 15 minutes) and you'll get a dozen replies in the first 5 minutes (not exaggerating) saying to just get the dongle
