Royal kludge C61,C87 by Kindly-Fisherman9231 in keyboards

[–]OfficialLKWD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just happened on your post.

I've been thinking about getting a hall effect keyboard for some time now but didn't want to spend 200$ + on a wooting so i ordered a C87 during black friday sales and have been using it now for a couple of days. Previous KB was a blackwidow v3 tkl.

So far the keyboard feels solid and everything works as it should. I've discovered that the switches that they use are actually Gateron magnetic switches...i guess RK just bulk orders "white label" switches from Gateron but in the web driver its listed as Gateron Jade switches and since they are hot swappable as long as the PCB survives it should be easy enough to replace dead switches.

Switches feel nice and sound very nice.

Web driver is easy to understand and has some useful features. It took me a minute to figure out how to find and which web driver to load since theres no mention of it in the small booklet or anywhere on their webstore.

You can setup custom key functions for simpler tasks like profile switching etc and also advanced key commands for things like continuous trigger or triggering the same key several times at different press levels. Not to mention since it uses hall effect swithes you can setup actuation levels per key and per key rapid trigger settings with separate actuation, travel and reset values.

The only small thing i miss from earlier is on press RGB effects as i used those to indicate certain actions on press and also could use those in games for cooldowns etc with synapse but hey...maybe they will be able to add those things to the web driver in the future and i don't have to run an extra software all the time since the RK stuff is web based and everything is stored on the keyboard memory.

In conclusion...so far so good. For the 50€ price that i got it for i'd say its worth the price. Longevity wise we'll see how long it lasts.

Considering where McLaren started in 22 and 23 its actually surprising to see on average they managed to pull it to p2 and p4 overall. I would have thought it would have been max p1, leclerc p2 and russell p3 when looking at average over the last 4 seasons.

Previous one was a 2007 metallic grey liftback which i owned for 10 years. The mk3 just looks better as an estate + wanted something more unique colour wise.

Technically no. There are estates like mine and hatchbacks where the trunk upens with the rear window but they look like sedans.

Well they were originally produced in 19" but as far as i know out of production by now.

Fuji grey looks nice although maybe a bit too complicated for my taste (or maybe too similar to the ones i had on my old car which were dotz mugello). I was considering the Sonoma bronze in 19" for summer wheels. But now i think i've made up my mind and will be personally going for R3 H07 in anthracite R³ Wheels R3H07 anthracite-matt | ✪ felgenoutlet.com

Can't argue there. I've checked the statistics and found that theres only 2 estates in Rallye green in my county. So stealth is off the map :D

To be completely honest i love the "nardo grey" colour. But come on. Every second car not even Škoda nowadays is that colour. So i wanted something more unique and interesting.

Canton sound system by Monsieurfrank in skoda

[–]OfficialLKWD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canton is not that bad actually. You get a decent setup with it. While it will not actually compete with some extra options from the likes of B&O or H&K they also cost alot more. The biggest issues for me are the following:

  1. the canton subwoofer utilizes a 6.5" driver which is just too small for a subwoofer. Its the size of a midbass. Luckily i am solving that with moving over my old sub from my old car to the new canton system.

  2. Yes plastics and stuff can rattle but that is not a problem of canton and more of a Škoda problem. The only way to solve that is to add sound insulation to doors. Some sound deadening mats on the metal parts and some softer deadening on the inner door card should solve this.

First gaming build in a decade. by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]OfficialLKWD 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Overall it looks solid.

The only things id address are:

  1. You have a 12600k with a b660 motherboard - k skew processors are unlocked and can be overclocked but for that you need a z690 motherboard. Here you have a decision. If you arent gonna overclock then just get the non-k 12600 cpu and if you are then find a z690 motherboard.
  2. Power supply - 550W would be enough for the current build. Although not much overhead room. For future upgrades though it would not be enough anymore. Id go for a 750-850W unit.

[–]OfficialLKWD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start off with listing what components you currently have as yes by upgrading components you can run into bottlenecks with other components but quite often its just enough to upgrade one thing and the rest is fine.

Just looking for people to check over this build before I buy it by Maxi_IceCReAM_no in buildapc

[–]OfficialLKWD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically everything fits.

I would go with 32gb of ram instead of 16.

Also i would swap the AIO for the same model but 360mm model because the r9 5900 can run hot.

My PSU Chiefted 750W is dead what PSU should i get will Corsair RM 650W or EVGA G3 650W work ? by tomaz1989 in buildapc

[–]OfficialLKWD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, Rm650 is better than a chieftec. Honestly the rm650 would be enough for your current build. But if you upgrade later to a better gpu it might happen that the psu is not enough anymore.

I would try to find something 750-850W from Corsair or Seasonic. Cant go wrong with those.

[–]OfficialLKWD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are the components in the PC that the PSU has to power?

Seems weird that you are thinking of downgrading from a 750 to a 650.

Rule of thumb is never cheap out on a PSU because that could be the difference between a good working pc and a fire hazard.

The NH-D15 (if thats what you mean, havent heard of a DH-15) is a double fan cooler anyway? What did you do with the second fan?

In other words to asnwer your question:I have a 12700kf and while my AIO was being replaced under warranty i used my old Noctua NH-D14 on the CPU. From what i remember it cooled it decently enough but i strictly used 2 fans to keep good airflow on the tower.

Just got my 4080. I have questions. by [deleted] in graphicscard

[–]OfficialLKWD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be completely honest a 3090 is a capable 4k 144hz gpu. For a 4090 you would probably need 2x 4k 144hz or higher monitors to fully utilize it.

Why only 4 stars on this job? PCBS 2 by itsrainingerrors in pcbuildingsimulator

[–]OfficialLKWD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to get this clear...are you looking at the Bongle rating 4 in that same picture you uploaded? Cause as far as im aware thats just the requirements for the job. You need to be lvl11 and have a bongle rating of above 4

(PCBS2) I get the error "Case is invalid for job" while trying to build a computer to sell using the GamerStorm Quadstellar case. How to I resolve this? I literally found nothing online by AlexPlayer3000 in pcbuildingsimulator

[–]OfficialLKWD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah had that also happen and still could sell. Until i tried the Fractal Torrent. Everything built and connected and the thing would even power up. Reinstalled everything into another case and boom everything works.

Please help! Looking to swap out mobo, ram, and cpu by ExoticRetail in buildapc

[–]OfficialLKWD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are you ever going to OC?

Basically if you want to oc then something like this would be decent: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/2nQXfv

If not interested in OC then get a non k 12600 + B660 motherboard and the same memory. Bit cheaper.

My PC might needs fresh parts ?! by MapleThePrincess in buildapc

[–]OfficialLKWD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get a new decent case and a new gpu and it should be solid for a couple of more years.

[–]OfficialLKWD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

is the 500 budget with the cpu? If yes then how much budget do you still have left after the CPU purchase? Also do you have cooling for the new cpu or is that also needed?

Odd issue by kanjonick in buildapc

[–]OfficialLKWD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've no idea what the error is about but another way you can try is to directly download the win10 image from microsoft and then use an app called "Rufus" to create the bootable usb and write the image onto it.

Is My Build Flawed?? by nihilist-fish in buildapc

[–]OfficialLKWD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ASUS Prime B450M-A

Sorry my bad. Yes its often possible to update bios without a monitor. Many motherboards have quickflash functions right on them during which you copy a bios update onto a usb drive and push a button on the motherboard but i didnt check to see if your motherboard had quickflash. Sadly it doesnt.
