#1 g4m3r prebuilt on Amazon.

Supposidly, 

i7  4th gen 4770
580 (2048 shader) 8gb (stripped down 580>570ish)
16gb ddr3
512gb SSD (qlc-dramless)

For $500... Hrrrrmm.....

IDK< considering the 580 is remanufactured from miners.

Cpu is fine, ram is probably fine.

The mobo is Jank vrms,  but honestly, since it's 4770 LOCKED cpu, it's not like it gon' hit 150watts.

PSU may blow up at 5% rate, is probably the most likely to fail.

Overall though basically 10yr old performance for $500,

ssssss.   Kinda-a-tough-sell + remanufactured parts.


Maybe you'd buy this just to minecraft?

Asus is by far the dumbest out there.

If you've got the Glass there already,  WHY does it need the holes in front AND behind the fans.

That's just extra impedance and there's no structural purpose because the whole front has a plastic shroud.

It should be straight injection, no holes.

The dust filter argument is bogus, those perforations won't filter any meaningful amount of dust.

I've already picked up an RF-8X, and it got me wondering: are Cipulot's PCB and custom plate compatible with the Realforce R2/Norbaforce? It would be awesome to build my Norbaforce with a Tsangan bottom row.

Thank you for the support! The custom plate offered in the gb essentially uses OEM R1 plate outline so it should fit in the Norbaforce but not the Realforce R2 plastic case tho

Keyboards / Re: Do Hall Effects actually last longer?

Well I had a Model-M (or a clone, Keytronics iirc?) which died within a few years. That was pretty well used before I got it. I have a tendency to bash my keys (not in anger, just used to get stressed out) while gaming, and it's improved lately. But yea, if I die before the keyboard I will be happy.

I have decided to not go with the Lemokeys P1 HE. Primarily because you can only use certain gateron switches, secondly because the support seems pretty weak. They haven't updated the firmware for a year despite there being evidence the firmware has some bugs (like keys stop working until firmware reset). I have to say the HE market is still pretty narrow imho.

Keyboards / Re: Akko Matcha Green

The Matcha Greens seem to be discontinued or at least no longer widely stocked. You might still find leftover inventory from some keyboard vendors, but Akko appears to have shifted focus to newer switch lines.
