ill let yall figure out the 40 series

just get a 4060, its only 3 bills, not much more expensive than finding a used 2060

I guess I want Tactile, but I could see Linear working. I like the tactile feel though. I type a lot, aside from gaming.

What mechanical keyboards are you all rocking? I got me a Corsair something or other (maybe K70...I don't remember). It's nice, but I'm looking to upgrade.

I'm about to cop this blind. I know nothing about this, but I trust your recommendation. Should be good I think

I'm super excited for my 57" Samsung 8K. They claim it's coming Monday, but I don't trust that estimate. Should be early next week though. I look forward to comparing with my 49" super ultra wide.

It's gonna be heavy. Casing is made of full aluminum. It's mounted on gaskets which will give a bouncy type feel which typers love.

Build quality shyts over any big brand keyboard. It can do bluetooth wireless too. I think the biggest adjustment you're going to gave is the key caps. It's slightly higher than cherry profile which most brands like Corsair use. I prefer cherry keycaps still. But u can easily buy a good set of cherry sized keycaps for $40.

Copped the 6 in black with banana switches. I'm skeptical of wireless, but it would be nice for my setup to get rid of a wire. Let's see what this thing can do.

If I don't like it, I'll give it to my brother. Side note, my brother benefits like fukk with my impulse purchases. I gave him a Samsung 4K, VR headset and shyt for free. Family and all that

Its a fun process imo.

Looking forward to checking out the 14900K benchmarks tomorrow. Apparently there are claims online of an even more improved IMC which would potentially allow for DDR5 8400 with XMP. I do find that intriguing.

My 57” 8K super ultrawide just got delivered. This thing is fukking huge. I could pick up and take my 49” box upstairs no problem. I had to drag the 57” box upstairs to my computer space (I have carpet). This shyt might actually need 2 people is you’re too small. I can manage it by myself, but damn shyt is just gigantic.

I’m gonna try and set it up later tonight or tomorrow. I need to move my desk a bit to allow for the extra width of the monitor. Hopefully I have enough space, or I’m gonna have to rethink my setup strategy
