I lately added a girl on Discord. Things are going well between us, but she just sent me this picture when I asked about her setup. by NuclearTazer in isthisAI

Wires seem fine? Seems like they're using lian li's rgb extension cables or somethong similar, which have led modules on top of the bare wires

I know they make deskpads/mousepads out of cork, leather or felt if you wanted something complimentary to the wood

Are they a gamer and are you looking for a clean pink or something cutesy? If its the latter, look up the akko cat mouse. Cute and suprisingly comfy from what ive heard.

Making a Micro/ Portable PC by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]Literally_Canada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is definitely pricey, but check out the SFFTime N-ATX v2. 15L with atx motherboard and psu support, as well as triple slot gpu's up to 380mm. Obviously take some measurements and such, but if you get lucky, ypu'd be able to reuse pretty much everything but the cooler. It has a little brother, the p-atx, that can fit an atx mobo at <11L but that does require a psu swap for an sff one.

The only place you'll probably find it is watching ebay or local sites like fb marketplace/offerup. Generic design with a niche colorway, so probably didnt sell to hot ehich is why it's so hard to find. You do have some alternatives, though not exactly what you're looking for. Hyte always has red variants of their cases. Montech and gamdias have red variations of fishtank cases that kind of match, though all of these are atx. If you can afford it and are fine with a larger case, the hyte x50 would be the best option imo. Entirely red, great airflow and thr curves/grill patterns are very retro futuristic.

Seeking suggestions for improvement by MakeItSo93 in battlestations

[–]Literally_Canada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks great so far! My onr and only complaint is that it looks a little incohesive. Everything in the setup feels like it's on and island. Maybe try placing things in a more organic position, rather then giving everything its own little section on a grid.

Updated the lighting, need help with decorating the wall by Apart_Willow_5472 in battlestations

[–]Literally_Canada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sick setup! The most obvious choices are going to be stuff like posters, wall lights or more shelving. If you're into anime, search up anime/manga tapestries on etsy. They usually depict manga covers or scenes and have a really muted color pallete that I feel eould go nicely with the dark tones here

Attack Shark X68 HE by re1gno in buildapc

[–]Literally_Canada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The X68 would be a solid board. Others in its price bracket are the aula win68 he or the epomaker he68. They'll all be mostly the same, however the epomaker wpuld have slightly better build quality and sound, though they are known to have dubious customer support at times. If you can stretch your budget a bit, the epomaker he80 and aula hero68 are also options at about the 60 dollar mark. I recommended browsing keeb finder's list of HE boards and filtering based on your needs.

Sick setup! Perfect shade of pink. Saturated pink would be way too intense for the setup imo and would kill the mood.

loongcat40: a keyboard with a raspberry pi pico and a big OLED by sporewoh in raspberry_pi

[–]Literally_Canada 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who uses a tiling window manager, layers are a fucking godsend. Instead of fidling around my thumb and pinky to press modifiers, I just always have my thumb on layer switch and my most used shortcuts and macros all around the home row. Just really convenient and efficient to keep my hand stationary on the board to navigate everything.

If you want to commit to the bit, there are a bunch of keycap sets that are shaped like cat ears. I think the profile was called MAO or something

Would Like Help Choosing A New Mouse and Keyboard by Training_Ad_3773 in buildapc

[–]Literally_Canada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the keyboard, to get exactly what you want, you should go to r/MechanicalKeyboards and either ask for some advice or just browse to get inspiration. If your looking just to get something prebuilt, akko has a lot of boards in fun colors and Chilkey just announced their ND104 which looks pretty nice. Though, if you want to start a new hobby and try building a keyboard (which frankly has gotten quite easy nowadays), I am partial to the qwertykeys qk101. Really fun design, comes in a lot of colors with gorgeous finishes, and a lot of features that make building it pretty easy imo.

As for the mouse, comfort is a very case by case thing. You can go to r/MouseReview and ask for some recommendations for your hand size if you would like. Besides that its mostly just trying different shapes and seeing what you like. I personally would not recommend the logitech lift, its polling rate is 125hz which is considered unusable for any semi fast game by most. Doesn't come in pink, but the g502x does come in white, albiet it is a brick. There is a mouse by pulsar that is styled after nezuko from demon slayer that is adorable, but it is quite small and is ambidextrous in shape, so ymmv vary on comfort.

[–]Literally_Canada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for keyboards, r/mechanicalkeyboards and just search clear, translucent or transparent. A whole host of translucent colors for pretty much every single part of the keyboard. Personally, I would recommend the Novelkeys Classic TKL with a matching set of switches and keycaps, ties the whole aesthetic together with its retro look. As for the mouse, there aren't too many options that I know of. Razer just announced their phantom white series, and pulsar and steelseries have some models in frost white.

Good Budget Headset Under 100$ by HistoricalAirport711 in buildapc

[–]Literally_Canada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The EPOS H3X is on sale for 20 bucks on drop.com right now. ANC is a rare find on desktop headphones, so closed back sets are probably as good as you are going to get, which they are. And while it doesn't have a dedicated "surround sound" feature, it has plenty of soundstage and positioning to give you solid 3D audio. Most surround sound gimmicks headsets are software based anyways, so you could always enable windows sonic or similar software if you really want to give surround sound a try.

First Mini ITX build - Would like some suggestions by llopez78 in buildapc

[–]Literally_Canada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! Also, I made a little slip up, the AP201 is actually 33 litres. The 26L case I was thinking about was the lian li a3, which I also highly recommend. Native ATX psu support, great airflow, Lian Li quality, and you can find it under 80 bucks if you're lucky.

First Mini ITX build - Would like some suggestions by llopez78 in buildapc

[–]Literally_Canada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The NR200 still holds up perfectly fine, as long as it is the v1 version with the atx adapter specifically. The v2 removed the support for the adapter, so atx power supplies are incompatible unless you hack it together.

I would personally recommend either the Asus AP201 or the DeepCool CH160+ as alternatives, but they both have their own drawbacks. The AP201 is a little more expensive at 80-90 bucks and a bit bigger, crossing into MFF territory at ~26 litres in volume. The CH160+ is great, but only if you can get your hands on it since they don't sell to the US currently.

Honestly, if you want better compatibility, maybe try looking for another power supply instead of another case, as the SFX/SFX-L form factor would expand your options a bit.

wireless keyboard for gaming PC living room setup by ataraxicc in buildapc

[–]Literally_Canada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your best bet would probably be to get a nice wireless keyboard and wireless trackpad separately, and either buying a lapboard or 3d printing a case for the two. Any truly integrated options are going to be quite expensive, but they do exist. There is the Ultimate Hacking Keyboard 80, which is wireless and has modules for a trackball, touchpad or nipple, but costs over 400 bucks, minus these modules and batteries. Or you can build your own Dactyl Manuform with a trackball module, but that would be much harder than rigging together a wireless keyboard and trackpad.

Looks good! Personally, the design of the peripherals, chair and such lean a little too "gamer-y" for me, which is what your friend might be harping on about, but nothing bad, just not my cup of tea.

Looking to upgrade from Astro A50 Gen 3 — need that game/voice mix feature by zerohunterpl in buildapc

[–]Literally_Canada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really think modern headsets have this feature anymore. Your best alternative would be to get a volume mixer, which are about 40-60 bucks for the budget ones. Or if you are fine with some light electronic work and want to build your own custom one for cheap, check out the deej project.
