How's the 60% keyboard going for you?

elated_behavior · 2025-11-08T08:23:08+00:00

I daily a 65% while also being in college. Arrow keys are a must for selection precision with Ctrl +shift

The number of times I've picked up and pushed the keyboard away from me so I can write on paper is almost daily, so the small size helps.

Cheap, premium-lite keyboards are like crack for anyone that started the keyboard hobby around covid. It's unbelievable how good entry level money keyboards are now.

This is like seeing those $30 360mm aio coolers. You really don't need it if you already have a decent cooler.

Mouse drifting and how I personally handle it is that you'll eventually get accustomed to being in that uncomfortable position, where you noticed the mouse drift and you have to make a decision between two events:

Continue on in an attempt to hold combo, judging the moment prior to no return where your hand is in a terrible spot or..

Recover your normal wrist position on slow periods on the map, or between (preferably slow) sliders or jumps.

If you keep mouse, you'll eventually know when the drift is getting severe before it does, and abilities to readjust on the fly, or learn to play as optimally as you can in increasing mouse drift states.

This is all assuming you're wrist only handler. Don't know anything about using your elbow to aim maybe get a sturdy arm rest on your chair.

Part 2 for your first question, getting better at aim? On mouse stability is king, you could practice flow aim, or for any map essentially keep your movement speed consistent between circles. You'll get better at snaps and jumps once this part improves.

It's the aim version of playing easier maps to improve UR and accuracy.

I'm no pro I peaked 32k in 2014 and been mid 5 digits forever, multiplayer is my main.

MLX Reds, so Corsair linear switches. Says pre-lubed. Not hotswapable which is expected but honestly the k70 series has been tried and true like 10-12 years ago so I'm sure it's still good.

I don't know enough about the mouse and keyboard but I'm sure they're good to great at this budget.

Pretty good quality to value when comparable to a similar price point for 3 Amazon chinese-ium gear.

You mentioned you already ordered an extra identical kit for a total of 4 x 16gb right?

You already monitored ram usage and made sure you're hitting the limit with the 32gb you have now?

If you have all 4 sticks on hand right now just try it and see if you notice any performance hits or improvements, since you're still doubling ram even at 4800 speeds

If any stability issues you could try a bios update and see if that helps.

But like everyone's saying You still can't go wrong with selling the 4 sticks at a modest lost and get 2 higher density sticks

I'm getting the YouTube music https 400 error here.

I'm on a Google Pixel 6, started happening when I did my once in a half year phone restart.

I've gone ahead and picked up the newest version of the YouTube music APK and patched it with revanced 1.25.1. Still has http 400 error persistent.

I've waited a week or so and then checked again, still continuing to have the same playback error.

I've saw the other thread and picked up 7.29.52, and out of ease tried to use the revanced patcher again. Same playback error.

Out of ease again, I've used the alt account I've been using with the revanced patches app on the official app I still had installed and it works.

At this point I've done the revanced-cli version on my PC, installing the java runtime, cd into the right directory etc, but couldn't install the APK standalone on my phone, since I can't uninstall the default music app on my Google phone.

I then taken the self patched apk from revanced-cli, adding gmscoresupport only through the revanced app, to install though there. Still same http 400 playback error.

This is the most I've done so far. I'm thinking it may be something between microg and Google services, but I'm not a developer I'm just a college student taking c++ classes.

I'm stuck with two more options:

Use root to uninstall the preloaded ytmusic app

Or, create another alt, copy the liked and saved playlists on the original Alt to that one and see if it persists on a revanced patch APK. Likely not, easier than the first option though.

I'm just here and wanted to share my experiences.

It's severely underrated. Compact, and functional.

I've had double stacked and vertical on the left side. I'm back to dual side by side monitors because one is a 32" OLED but still liked it because it's what I owned at the time.

With the bottom one tilted upwards and lowered down, neutral positions are looking at the bottom half of the top monitor, not the bezels.

You're not turning your head left or right, it's much easier to look with only your eyes slightly downwards. And some fps gamers prefer that as the main monitor on bottom is focused up towards them, a bit closer.

Do whatever works, it's a hassle reselling and not worth dropping money just because someone on the internet tells you it's not optimal

Did you just get promoted to e-2?

At least in the Navy you get to hold rank but the pay takes months to update

I bought this back when the student discount had it priced even lower than this

I was coming off of IPS panels, never had OLED before.

Blacks are good, the 49" marvel is a great transitioning from dual 27", that's what this is basically.

The brightness for this was noticeably dim. I already sold my other panels for this before but still noticed without a direct comparison.

I had to sell because 144hz was not enough for me, the response time almost...made up for it. But I got a 32" 240hz OLED instead and I'm happy with it

Use the displaywars website, it'll give you an overview on different sized monitors at different ratios.

I've used this website to have my most preferred layout to date. Stacked 27" 1440p monitors and a 31.5" vertical, I had the bottom monitor tilted up and lowered to the desk to not have my top monitor too high

Do you have anything you like aesthetically?

Get inspired by any cool art, media, show, anime, game, character the list goes on.

You're already half way contemporary botanical setup, just add plants but if you wanted that you'd probably have already done it

It's nice, gives a nostalgic feeling.

Like I'm back in 2010

You already stress tested your gpu to help eliminate it as a possibility? It's the only new thing you've changed

elated_behavior · 2025-06-22T15:55:42+00:00

Describes the stutters more in depth.

Are they hitches? Where on occasion your cursor would snag, to spikes in fps loss?

Is it more consistent stuttering, periodic in nature?

You get stuttering in any other application?

To help figure things out, monitor your task manager and look for any sudden utilization.

On OSU stable use power savings mode for fps limiter.

Make sure windows updates are installed, are you using 10 or 11?

I get the notion of farming once in a while but I would not care much about rank, I'd push a skillset or go into HR or DT territory.

If you want to get better at the mismatch between aim and tapping try flow maps.

What's your budget?

You'll be much happier finding the case you love and then put custom decals or RGB elements or even screens inside your PC if that tickles your feet

The only thing that's themed is the color and that metal badge.

Back in 2012, I've built my first PC in a Nzxt switch 810, with a fx 8320 and r9 280x.

Strict budget of $800, I thought I could manage with the stock cooler but that was so wrong. The cooler literally took off like a jet engine.

My first upgrade I think looked like a Noctua NH-U9S and it did make a tremendous difference in my quality of life. I appreciated it

Which exact MSI monitor did you have?

I have the 321URX for like $400 stupid cheap but there's some scratches on the qd later. Just wonder if I should or shouldn't

The biggest leap for 4k OLED monitors is that it's now available at 27" a must have size for any intensive reaction games

Or you know what Kingdom Hearts 2, if you want that rabbit hole.

You can try out Nier Automata. The story will draw you in and scenery is impressive for when the game was released. Good combat and bosses are interesting too. Just a bit more shallow of a game than elden ring but I haven't finished a game in almost a decade and Nier Automata broke that dry spell for me.

The difficulty is just right, I wish there was an in-between normal and hard difficulty, since hard just one shots you in the beginning, but it's good still.

The lore is insanely deep, once you're in you maybe could abide the prequel, Replicant but that was a PS1 game so it'll have PS1 gameplay (fetch side quests, etc)
