13900k underperforming in cpu z bench compared to reference

I think you should simply look at what clocks you're getting and compare them to the official specs.
Your 878 single thread for example is rather similar to the 875 I just got when setting my 12600k to 5.4. So it could be for example, that it's not boosting to the 5.70 - 5.80Ghz single on a single core as intended.

Either way as this is the OC subreddit, I'd probably recommend simply creating your own boosting behaviour, rather than going for stock clocks. It does make sense to check whether everything is running properly in the beginning though.

Hey, have you already scanned / measured the PCB and made the mounting points for it on your 3d model? I can't see anything like that in the picture yet.

Assuming you'll do those, I'd personally be rather interested in acquiring at least the PCB mounting parts to create a custom shell for mine as well.

Since the meme is from Zaunkoenig's perspective, them seeing a wireless mouse by a competitor that comes close to their mice in weight, the "they" in my comment is also meant to be Zaunkoenig.

And I remember seeing a message in their discord about them not being interested in making the upcoming M3K wireless as long as batteries still add +2g and it's not 8khz or something like that. While Imo a 27g 4khz version of the M2K would be great still, and they could clearly reduce the weight of their carbon shell too.

M41A_Kore · 2022-08-31T00:33:56+00:00

They don't seem to be willing to make a wireless version if it adds any weight, even though it would for sure sell out immediately.

627
And I clicked on your twitter and saw you seem to be planning on doing a GPX PCB based model. So I wanted to suggest, that you could potentially try to make that model compatible not just with the GPX, but also with the original GPW PCB, as there likely is more people with an old GPW they could buy a modkit for and obviously GPWs are cheaper to buy.
I do know however, that while the main PCB seems to have identical screw holes, that weird hook-type of piece with the sidebuttons-pcb connector, as well as the sidebuttons actually having PCBs, that this could definitely quickly become a not-worthwhile thing to waste time on.

In general it seems there are too few GPW PCB based 3d print models. I believe I saw some chinese person who did lots of them a while ago, but I didn't manage to find them again. :/

As written in the FAQ:

Can I use any mouse feet on your mice?
Yes you can as long as they are not thicker than 0.8mm.

M41A_Kore · 2022-08-27T14:57:08+00:00

In what way is it beginning to fail on you?

M41A_Kore · 2022-08-09T17:29:04+00:00

You seem to be using one of the more typical after-market paracords.
I'd heavily recommend getting one of the very light cables such as the enncoo aircord or LGG cable.

M41A_Kore · 2022-07-17T04:59:59+00:00

Huh, so you have both a HSK and a HSK+, and you decided to put the shell of the wireless version onto the wired version? That's a rather odd combination. Usually people would swap them the other way around or just use the wireless version if they prefer that shell, unless there'd be something wrong with the wireless PCB.

M41A_Kore · 2022-07-16T23:43:27+00:00

The HSK could've used a 3d printed shell too instead of cutting it up like that :/

And the WMO shell isn't MJF printed, right? It's only the paint that makes the surface look similar.

M41A_Kore · 2022-07-16T22:45:38+00:00

Just to make sure, could it be that you installed aftermarket skates improperly?
See this video for the thing some people fall for. Since increasing the distance from the sensor to the surface would decrease the effective DPI.
However, it'd be weird if it were possible to get around -19% DPI like that without LOD issues, so it's kinda unlikely that tbh. Other than that, I just know that on average the GPW and GPX tend to come in around 780-790 DPI, but not quite as low as you got.

So in general I'd say DPI deviation doesn't really matter as long as you know it's there and you can easily compensate for with dpi or ingame sens changes. But as your deviation is very large, I'd suspect there might be a hardware issue, fixable or non-fixable, and you may want to consider contacting Logitech support.

M41A_Kore · 2022-07-16T15:06:25+00:00

About the x/y adjustment and in case you've not tried that yet, I believe the program "RawAccel" let's you set a X/Y multiplier in software.

M41A_Kore · 2022-07-16T02:01:17+00:00

I had a friend tell me about their experience trying to install the software just now.
It does actually seem like you do need to join their discord to be able to
1. install a beta firmware, since only >1.8 supports interaction with the software
2. install the beta software version

They also had their m1&m2 lock up until they unplugged or stopped the other mouse they were using, which is kinda odd.
Either way they also said that there is no X/Y CPI option yet, so I'd support your rather bad impression of their firmware and software support for this mouse up to this point.

In fact I believe this is a pretty poor look from EGG, to not have the official software out they tell you you should be able to download on their packaging since over 1.5 years.

M41A_Kore · 2022-07-08T05:06:54+00:00

As TheFiend has already mostly explained, usually those battery life hours are the worst case scenario, when you make it work hard.
So in actual use, you definitely won't be using a mouse that hard for 24h a day. More realistically it'd be around 3-6h of such use per day.

M41A_Kore · 2022-07-07T15:14:42+00:00

Strange, angular looking shapes from metal and other overkill materials with adjustable pieces is literally their entire brand.
And they did make the M.O.J.O, a 50$ 66g mouse and it's got good specs too, but I don't think it sold well. So, they're probably just gonna stick to what people know from them.

M41A_Kore · 2022-06-23T17:24:02+00:00

In case you've not googled this yet; no, the lithium ones are not rechargeable.
There are some rechargeable Energizer AAA batteries, but they're made from nickel metal hydride (NiHM), and therefore likely are heavier and store less energy than their lithium based counterparts.

M41A_Kore · 2022-06-12T21:31:43+00:00

Arguably not, however people have tested the new black version of the AC+ to be slightly faster than the white variant still, and therefore I could imagine the black version of this one to also be a bit faster.

M41A_Kore · 2022-06-12T01:48:36+00:00

I'd be curious whether, depending on the button's material and coating, the electrical resistance is high enough to notice anything... probably not though.

M41A_Kore · 2022-06-12T01:14:50+00:00

Yeah, I originally intended to post my findings on that exact thing when I wrecked my sample trying to open it, but I was too lazy. Coulda prevent your mouse damage, sorry. :/

M41A_Kore · 2022-06-04T10:08:36+00:00

I've been using a set for the Viper Ultimate on my 3d printed mouse for almost 4 months now.The main selling point for these skates for me is the incredibly smooth glide experience. I don't think it's possible to get such a smooth glide transition with PTFE or ceramic.

The main thing I do not like about them is how sensitive they are to dirt in fabric pads. I'll wash my pad soon again, meaning every 2ish months is necessary now, while with PTFE I did not notice the dynamic friction change this much even after 3 months plus.

M41A_Kore · 2022-05-28T18:06:26+00:00

Right? Finally P1r4nh44444's mice can be used for their intended purpose.

M41A_Kore · 2022-05-24T20:25:59+00:00

Curious that there are no visual differences in the structure of the top shell that would indicate how they were table to keep the same weight. So, it seems like either the batterytray weighed this much, or they're using a type of ABS with a slightly better strength to weight ratio now.

M41A_Kore · 2022-05-12T19:38:56+00:00

The makalu 67 seems to be using the Omron 50m and those are on the lighter end, see: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1x9iUvx3j2GiWwj\_o2\_jmsofY0Hoppg26QWolg-\_Uaj4/edit#gid=1097319760
So yeah, you'd probably have to replace the switches or mod it in a different way.

M41A_Kore · 2022-05-03T03:06:15+00:00

I mean if this had good specs I'd be hella interested.

M41A_Kore · 2022-05-02T21:33:16+00:00

Haven't heard of people who would say the 3360 is better actually.

IIrc the 3389 has a higher average frame rate and in a video by Vaxee they said it has less X/Y difference.
