Unless mine was a dud, it's just not for me. I can understand why some people like it. But I need some type of "click" when I'm typing, for the lack of a better word. After reading more reviews, it seems like other people can't really deal with them neither.

I get a click. Not a loud one though. But I can definitely tell I'm typing. I was messing around with it in cue earlier today fooling with some of these effects

 

[Ciggavelli]

shyt, brehs convince me that I only need 1 gpu. Please


I keep thinking I want to have at least an option to go sli. And the cheapest chip to get is the 10-core i9 7900x. If I go with just one gpu, I’d save a shyt ton in cpu and 2nd gpu costs. Then I can buy other tech

get blues then

the reds only make a sound when they bottom out, and the 'silent' joints are supposed to eliminate that

I have browns now. they're like a slightly crunchy red

Its time to come to the 144-240 hz side , where you only need 1 gpu

I'll probably buy that 4k g-sync with 144hz. I need that shyt in my life. I'm buying it as soon as it comes

The case on the aurora is so much better than that hideous Area-51 case

Look how small and understated the case is (for Alienware at least). The second case is what I got

And of course, I got the Dell Visor and controllers to see what MS has up their sleeves with this "mixed realty." I gotta admit not having sensors to set up seems somewhat revolutionary


I'm going to use the extra money I had set aside and buy that 4K, G-sync, 144hz monitor ASAP whenever it"s for sale.



Oh and no, I won't be cancelling this order. I'm officially a "Casual" now I guess.

Is it worth it to get a 144hz G Sync monitor if you only have a 1060?

 

[Liquid]

Is it worth it to get a 144hz G Sync monitor if you only have a 1060?

It will be very hard to get 144Hz maxed out in most recent demanding games with a 1060, but yeah why not? It will still look way better than any standard monitor/tv

Yea but competitive FPS games aren't GPU intensive.

if you plan to upgrade in the the future you might as well

How much that come to?

 

[Ciggavelli]

How much that come to?

A little under $4k. I had a discount and a coupon too

 

[JayJedi]

I'll probably buy that 4k g-sync with 144hz. I need that shyt in my life. I'm buying it as soon as it comes

I wanna early adopt but I just get the feeling those panels are gonna have some issues out the gate.
