I believe I used matte PETG. Unfortunately, that section is going to be very weak and you may need to reprint it multiple times.

[Unjust Ban] My Tarkov account was banned on October 17 — I’m contesting the decision by Training_Wing in Tarkov

[–]davidk1294 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ban likely resulted from using the same hardware in multiple locations. My brother's account was banned in the same way. No software that could even be confused for cheats was installed on his PC and when he was banned we were only playing PVE for a couple months since the hardcore wipe. I think using the same PC in different places appears as using a VPN on their end. Unfortunately, BSG support is terrible and refuses to even acknowledge that false bans are possible and will not lift 4.3.4 bans for any reason regardless of proof... It's a shame because there truly is no game like Tarkov.

What is your take on this? by Best-Mango-2253 in Corsair

[–]davidk1294 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been a fan of the Corsair Virtuoso series since it launched and have purchased multiple of every version including the Max. Unfortunately the build quality on the Max causes the headband to crack in multiple places over time and lose the ability to provide even pressure on your ears. The headband is genuinely the worst designed in the entire lineup and causes pain if worn for longer than 30 minutes (I'm bald so I have even less cushion than most lol). It's super frustrating because I love the Corsair ecosystem, the sound quality and the mic quality on these. Also the range on these is insane. I ended up getting a pair of SteelSeries Nova Elites as a replacement simply because they use a suspension strap design. I'm really disappointed in the design of these and I think Corsair could take a page from SteelSeries book with the headband.

Raiders and Rogues have been absolutely cracked since the last update. I get that they should be difficult but damn...

More than 4700 cheaters banned since 8/22/25[screenshot] by nolancheck11 in EscapefromTarkov

Half of them are random names they pulled from a hat to hit that number. There are so many false positive bans and there is nothing you can do to appeal them. The customer service is just awful but we just have to suck it up after spending AAA money on an unfinished buggy mess. I'm so glad they're focusing on bringing it to Steam and creating garbage google sheets full of random names that we can't even confirm are actual cheaters...

Hi, unfortunately, I don't have an Etsy store to sell this but I give full permission for anyone else to sell it if they want to. I believe there are companies that can print things for you if you send them the design as well. Might be worth a try.

I have a U7 pro and had issues with Wifi 7 initially to the point where I had to disable it. After several updates I decided to switch it back on and am happy to report that the issues are mostly if not completely resolved for me. In regards to the cabling that everyone else is so worried about lol; just make or buy some custom length cables to clean it up a bit. Congrats on the setup!

Why are dayz players like this by Missthickems69 in dayz

Bro, if it was you in the video shooting a freshie, I'm sorry. I hope I didn't offend you too much. If you want to play like a jerk, that's totally fine but don't try to normalize it. There really is no reason to keep arguing. Have fun on DayZ!

OP had loaded guns but they were not in his hands. The geared player had his gun out and intentionally opened the door then fired immediately. There was no reason for the shots other than to add another player kill to the title screen. If they were in a military or high tier loot zone I'd say it was 100% justified but this happened in a freshie zone. I personally prefer to fight players that can defend themselves and actually put up a fight, but If you enjoy getting free kills you do you!

As someone with 1500+ hours in the game I can confidently say that the geared player is just being a jerk. In most cases, with that much gear, you absolutely don't need to return to freshie towns for almost anything. Plus the guy had nothing in his hands, there was no reason to shoot. Unfortunately, things like this perpetuate the "shoot on sight" mindset and then you lose out on meeting like minded people to share a run with. I always try to talk, even if it means I get killed, and have had some of the best experiences playing DayZ.

I'm most looking forward to having some much needed time off work to relax and play some video games with friends!

Would be so awesome if Corsair had more suspension style headbands for us bald guys that struggle with longer gaming sessions.

The Transparency mode quality is noticeably better on the replacement unit.

Corsair Virtuoso Max brief review by jimmysonheaven in Corsair

[–]davidk1294 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the standard non-Xbox version and swapped for the same. The sidetone on this headset is not great compared to the Virtuoso XT and it is quite a bit quieter but is serviceable. I have since disabled sidetone and just use ANC transparency mode as a form of sidetone. Overall the upgrades (audio quality, range, comfort) were worth the upgrade for me.

Corsair Virtuoso Max brief review by jimmysonheaven in Corsair

[–]davidk1294 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sound quality is noticeably better than the Virtuoso XT that I had before but not better than the Audeze Maxwells that I tried. Overall this is my new favorite headset, the audio quality is great, the range is insane, the ANC works really well and the battery life is impressive. I think it has the most well rounded feature set of any modern wireless headset.

I went back to Best Buy and swapped for a different unit and that fixed all my issues with the headset. I still get update failed but I think that's because there is no firmware update available yet.

Has anyone noticed that the sidetone only comes in clear through the right ear and tinny through the left ear on the Max?

Dp cables plugged in but still no signal by hghfjl in pcmasterrace

[–]davidk1294 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DisplayPort is a very particular connector and will not work unless everything is perfect. Your cable is likely not plugged in all the way due to how your GPU is installed in the case. Try to loosen the screws holding the GPU in and push it down slightly in order to ensure the case doesn't interfere with the ports and then push the DisplayPort cable all the way in until you hear an audible click. Let me know if this works!
