#3 4k vidya (large screenshots, 4k 10MB each) in Other Games
JimiJamKind of a vague question but how much of a difference is there? I've never actually seen a 4K panel in person so I literally have no semblance of how good it actually is in real life. Those screenshots are awesome though

It's quite obvious. My first time seeing it in person was walking through a department store, glancing towards the TVs and thinking "holy shit that's sharp" before noticing it was 4k. Noticeable at the barest glance from a good few metres away.

It's quite hard to put your finger on exactly what looks so good about it, but you can objectively tell it looks quite simply amazing. The fact it's on a 28 inch monitor probably helps because it fills so much of your vision, but I've seen 27 inch 1080p panels and not been very impressed so the resolution is definitely a large factor.

I had a play around with the same monitor I'm using at game24 (where I won this one) and definitely noticed it there, but maybe not quite so much because it was a quick 5 minute run through before someone else's turn. Sitting down and using it in person you can really tell the difference. Even in Windows I'm marveling at how sharp the text is.

ddrsensationI always used the WMO. The mouse looks close to the same size as the WMO but oddly feels a lot slimmer.

Apparently you can fit the internal sin a WMO body if you're interested in that

Don't know how it was to play etc but that was really fun to stream, big ups to Twiggy and Buttnose for pulling this together.

mousiopelift off distance, please

No idea how to measure it precisely, but by moving the mouse slightly while raising it until the cursor stops moving, it seems about 3-5mm.

povohatThe reason I followed this project so closely and pre-ordered instantly is because I want to support bst, as stupid as that sounds after everything thats happened.

Yeah I agree, I only found out about this very recently (November in fact) but for a single guy to come this far and deliver something this good even if there were issues with shipping and such is very impressive. I've seen bigger companies fuck up far worse than this and the community backlash I saw at ESR was disgusting. It's justifiable to be upset when you supported early by preording and ended up paying more and getting it later, but that doesn't justify the vitriol I saw in some of those comments.

Cable does have some drag but is very flexible and feels very secure on the mouse end. Might get a bungee for it. Only thing I can complain about is that with the way it is packaged, the cable is pulled back tightly behind the mouse and that lead to the cord touching the mouse pad right as it left the mouse, but that's easy enough to fix by bending it into a better position.

M4/M5 buttons are perfect for my hand size with my fingertip grip, would maybe like to see them be a bit bigger but I'm coming from a g9x which has fairly large m4/m5 buttons. I can also confirm the issues other people have been reporting where you can press the body of the mouse just below the m4/m5 buttons to activat them, however this does require significantly more pressure to do than pressing the buttons so it isn't something you would do by accident.

As others have reported, the left mouse button is slightly raised, so when you put your finger on it it travels about 1 or 2 millimeters before touching the switch to start the click, but it is light enough that just having your finger resting on the button is enough to keep it touching the switch so it doesn't make a difference in practice.

Feet aren't quite as frictionless on my Goliathus Speed mouse pad as my G9x was but that might change after I clean my pad, either way it's not so bad.

Mouse wheel is good, an improvement over my G9x's, a lot smoother to scroll and has a nice mouse3 click too, very clicky not mushy at all.

Packaging was solid, quite impressed, although the plastic shell within the outer box had some really fucking annoying to open flaps. Comes with a Ninox logo sticker and 4 replacement feet.

The software is decent to use, but I noticed when changing some settings (one in particular is turning off enhanced pointer precision) the mouse becomes unresponsive for about a second, then response for a second then back off for 2-3 seconds while the setting saves. Haven't seen it happen when not fiddling with settings though.

The LED colours are quite vibrant, have various levels of brightness and breathing effects which is nice. The colour choice is quite varied, but the ability to manually set particular colours uses values from 0-10 changing RGB values, would be better to see the normal 0-255 scale here than 0-10.

Sensitivity values are 400, 800, 1600, 3200, 4000. Would have preferred a ~1200 value but that's my personal preference and I can adapt to moving my mouse a bit faster for 800.

You have 5 profiles, each with 3 modes that you can switch between by pressing the button just below the scroll wheel, have to open the software to change between profiles though I think (could be wrong).

Button rebinding is very comprehensive, lots of options and the ability to write custom macros is useful. Can't speak to the quality of the "macro manager" though as I don't personally use any.

You can also adjust polling rate from the default of 500Hz to values of 125, 250, 500 and 1000Hz, change windows pointer speed and toggle enhanced pointer precision. Scroll wheel can be adjusted to scroll either a particular number of lines or one page at a time. Double click speed is also adjustable and has a little button to test it on next to it.

Overall I'm very pleased with the purchase. It definitely isn't perfect but it blows anything else at this price point (and some significantly more expensive price points) out of the water .

Do you mean the massdrop just shipped from Ninox to the massdrop warehouse, or shipped to customers from massdrop?

Agreed with rock-, wait for the GTX960 to come out, or save another 50-100 dollars and get a GTX970, best video card buy at the moment.

#9 Tf2 little stutters constantly in Q/A Help

Have you made sure your RAM settings are correct? I had my 1600mhz kit set to 1600mhz in BIOS with everything else auto. Then decided I would manually input my timings to make sure it was fine. After manually inputting them (100% sure they were correct) I had microstuttering everywhere. Changing it back to auto worked fine. In hindsight I should have used the XMP profile but oh well.
