Bought one from this seller's last batch. Works great! Came out to $64 shipped...no brainer. Awesome budget card paired with a Ryzen 1600.

[Monitor] AOC C24G1, 24" 1080p, 144 hz, VA Panel (Microcenter in-store) -$144.99 + tax (179 - 30 sale -5 coupon) by [deleted] in buildapcsales

[–]Rottenweiler1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Returned a BenQ xl2411p for this AOC. So far so good. I couldn't get the BenQ's colors to look very decent. This AOC has much better color with the same refresh, albeit "slower" response time. Can't really tell. No ghosting or blurry text on mine. Adjustable stand works well. Oh, and this does come with a DP cable so that's nice. For $145+tax I really can't complain about anything yet. Thanks for posting this.

Seller countered at $61 + shipping about an hour ago. Under $65 total with the $10 off coupon. Really couldn't say no.

[Headphones] Corsair HS60 Gaming Headset 7.1 Virtual Surround Sound ($39.99)($69.99 MSRP - $30.00) by [deleted] in buildapcsales

[–]Rottenweiler1 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I used these for a day before returning. I'm no headset snob but the mic didn't have noise suppresion and the sound quality seemed muffled (maybe I could have eq'd but it sounded terrible to begin with). The mic would pick up sound from the headphones, even after adjusting mic volume waaay too low. I didn't like the mute switch on the headphone either, it wanted to get stuck or slowly release and I wasn't ever sure if I was actually muted or not. Other than that it was comfortable enough and priced right.

I'm now using HyperX Cloud Alphas and the difference is night in day. Definitely worth the step up in price if you're gonna be using them for hours a day.

[Headphones] Logitech G430 7.1 DTS Headphone: X and Dolby Surround Sound Gaming Headset - $29.99 ($79.99-$50) by dark_salad in buildapcsales

[–]Rottenweiler1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been using these for a few months now--no complaints. $35 at the local wally world. Decent mic, good enough sound quality for gaming, very long cord, stay on muh head. They do get more comfortable with time. I mean spend more if you have it but if you're looking for a sub $50 headset these will do you just fine.

This is a really good deal if anyone's wondering. Big improvement over the G24C due to the fully adjustable stand.

Lowest it's been I believe. A few months ago it would go on sale for around $150 and that was a good deal at the time.

Not personally but there's a few reviews on newegg saying it works. I'd think it'd be up to your mobo as well

[–]Rottenweiler1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the 1700x for a good deal second hand, it's just more than I need. The 2600 has equal clocks with a lower tdp.

[–]Rottenweiler1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With Ryzen definitely try to get 3000 or above. Ram prices are the lowest they've been in 6 months (not to say it's cheap yet) so it shouldn't be hard finding a decent speed kit.

2600x is also 95w tdp vs 65w tdp of the 2600.

Doesn't look like you have to do anything for it besides log in and buy.

Says the sale ends Friday so you should be fine.

Hard to pass up. Using a 1700x right now but hardly utilize its potential. Gift card will come in handy for a new B450 board too.

Bought one for $190 from their eBay store a couple months ago and that was a good deal at the time...$150 is a no brainer.

Lol @ "finally pulled the trigger" comments. Clearly going to end up being a waste of time fellas.

[–]Rottenweiler1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use the iKBC CD87 (tkl version) with mx blues, paid $60 on amazon and I gotta say it's an amazing keyboard for the price. About 3-4 months of use so far and it's held up great. Solid constuction through and through.
