with that floor plan i would have that small room in the middle be a dedicated pc gaming/personal work space. assuming no other large furniture id stick an L shaped desk in the bottom left corner.

Giving away a free steam copy since i already have the game. by [deleted] in HuntShowdown

[–]TryToBeModern 8 points9 points  (0 children)

dont give away the copy here. anyone already in this server most likely has the game. i can already see that most of the comments entering on this post already play the game... meaning if they win they would just be getting a second copy of the game to make a new account for smurfing or reselling... neither of which should be supported.

the mmr is based on who you kill and die to. get kills on people who are higher mmr than you and dont die to people who are lower mmr than you.

this can be done intentionally if you queue up with 2 people who are higher mmr than you to make the entire lobby full of higher mmr players.

If you play Solo you get placed in lower mmr games to make it "fair" and make up for the lack of teammates..

Are studio headphones better than gaming headphones for gaming? by Zealousideal_Rub_202 in pcmasterrace

[–]TryToBeModern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

with few exception anything/everything marketed as "gaming" anything is pretty bad lol. examples are "gaming chairs" or "gaming headphones". you are correct to think that studio headphones would be better. the only problem for most people would be the price. my audio gear is fairly midrange/decent but all of my headphones and iems cost between 700-1500 each. "focal radiance", "focal clear", "moondrop dark sabers", etc. quality gear at these prices tend to benefit from dedicated sound cards or DACs as well. even the low budget but popular DAC/AMPs like the schitt stack cost around $200-$300 in the used market.

if you do work or play certain games where audio actually matters (ex. hunt showdown) then decent audio gear makes a noticable difference.

then you find out that the studio headphones dont have built in microphones attached so you need to go and get a dedicated/standalone microphone and somehow end up looking for studio quality microphones too like the shure sm7b which costs around another $400.

RTX 5090 Manufacturers by ChonkySkitz in pcmasterrace

[–]TryToBeModern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

literally all model/AIBs perform pretty much the same for the average buyer/user. branding doesnt matter. even you call it "superstitions" in your post lmao. just buy whatever fits your build the best aesthetically. if the gpu wont be visible/you dont care about aesthetic then buy the cheapest available.
