#20 Suggestions for a new mouse? in Hardware
termo+1 zowie

really exceptional products

The coating on my AM peeled worse than anny other mouse i have owned and the mouse buttons where so stiff they cramped my hand. My EC1 eVo CL had the worst mouse wheel i have ever had on a gaming mouse (don't know why they changed it from the AM).

I did however LOVE the shape and weight and the sensor was the best available at the time. Zowie products are good but not without their flaws.

#10 165hz Asus monitor in Hardware
ProSkeezIt was also sarcasm, I'd highly doubt even the best CS:GO pros or Invite TF2 players would notice the difference between 1ms and 5ms

I have a 120hz 5ms mon and a 144hz 1ms mon. The difference is noticeable but not crippling.

#21 GXL LAN Thoughts in TF2 General Discussion

If shortening my life would rid the world of CS i would do it.

Apparently me and my team ended up seated across from the most obnoxious people at the event. Every 3 seconds SCREAMING "Esports" our using speakers our some other shit. I have no idea how they were not kicked from the venue.

Take your pick from the current Mionix lineup.
My old Naos 5000 had excellent build quality and lasted me longer than any other mouse i have owned.
The following use the flawless 3310 sensor.

AVIOR 7000
AVIOR SK
CASTOR
NAOS 7000

#13 SteelSeries Rival 100 in Hardware
springrollssensor is a modified 3050.

Into the trash it goes.
Seriously i would pay the extra 10$ for a 3310. I have no idea why Steelseries always uses such subpar sensors in their mice. It is a shame sense there mice shapes look like something i would use.

Looks like i am going with the Mionix Castor.

Rez has little effect on FPS in TF2 so long as you have a decent GPU. Most people on gaming PCs are CPU limited.

SetsulYou made my day.
I should probably circle "Shadow of Mordor" in MSPaint but this'll have to do for now: http://i.imgur.com/DWJVGsV.png

Crysis 3 is known to have ungodly amounts of pointless tessilation (Nvidia the way its ment to be shilled)

Second link is 10/10, neither teh 780 Ti nor the 290X appear in those benchmarks. That means the 290X is faster, right?

390 and 390x are just OCed 290 and 290x with extra vram that doesn't matter in most games.

Anticompetitives practices? nVidia crippling its own cards to make AMD look worse? See Hairworks. If you can turn it off, turn it off, if it's something you can't turn off let the lawsuits commence.

THE WAY IT'S MEANT TO BE SHILLED

It still doesn't make the 290X any faster, so while we're discussing performance it's not helping your case. I'd use Intel as an example why anticompetitive practices don't mean your product is worse, but you'd start defending your FX-8350 and the FX vs i7 debate has been dead for years, just like the FX series.

I haven't had a FX-8320 in a LONG time thanks to Valve being total piss at optimization and the FX's lack of single core perf. TF2 DID run fine on my old FX untill Valve ruined TF2's performance even further. I stand by the fact that in most games you will be GPU limited far before you notice the difference between a far more expensive i7 and a FX 8320.

Next link I'm counting 2 wins for the 780 Ti, 1 for the 970, the 290X always being slower than either.
Project Cars pre-release 970 wins, 290X still slowest.
1.0.11 780 Ti is now close to 970, 290X barely beats normal 780.
1.0.13 and new drivers 2 for 780 Ti, 1 for 970, 290X still barely above 780, actually loses to 960 and 770 on 1080p.

Project cars is known to have issues with AMD cards.
Same GTA V benchmark as before.
[/quote]Last GTA V benchmark: With the old drivers the 290X beats a reference 780 Ti on stock clocks. Now you've just got to find an aftermarket 780 Ti with less than a 7% overclock. Because once the boost clock touches 1000MHz that 3fps advantage is gone.[/quote] The 290x will OC decent on a non reference card. Honestly if you buy reference AMD cards our even bother to bench them you are retarded.

You don't even know which card I'm using. What if I told you I'm using a 7970?

Good card. Turn tessellation down in CCC and watch your FPS go up by 40% in some titles.

But what is this smell? Could it be ...
http://www.teamfortress.tv/post/127945/how-well-do-amd-cpus-do-in-tf2ScrewballFermi architecture hates tf2 for some reason.BUYER'S REMORSE?!
NOBODY SAW THAT ONE COMING!
680 is Kepler though, I blame the 8350, but I can smell your salt from here.

Worked fine on my 4890 and shat the bed on my 480 on the same CPU in the same system. Clearly something wasn't right with the 480.

SetsulAlso define recent.

2015 latest drivers http://s2.postimg.org/kkmssb1p5/gtx780ti_2015_bench.png
http://www.computerbase.de/2015-10/star-wars-battlefront-erste-benchmarks-der-open-beta/

290x was 200$ cheaper.
Also AMD has the option to change tessellation levels usually resulting in 0 loss in quality. Nvidia paid companies to put sub pixel tessellation in games resulting in no image quality boost but crippling AMD cards in benchmark and slowing down the performance of both company's cards.

Thanks Nvidia.

Nvidia left Kepler to die after Maxwell.

MaxHaxAlso don't act like hardware doesn't fail randomly

The card killing drivers where a big deal when it happened.

It happened more than once.

Are you retarded?

Setsul#9
You're the type of guy to buy a 480 or 290X and then complain about the temperatures, right?

I never complained about temps. Temps are irrelevant so long as you have proper cooling. I complained about Nvidia whql drivers shutting off the fan on my 480 killing the card out of warranty.

Also how fucking delusional do you have to be to think a 970 beats a 780 Ti?

Witcher 3

Do you actually believe that somehow the 780 Ti became slower than the 290X?

Look at almost all recent benchmarks.

I'm taking any bet that you'll buy an AMD card and come back whining about microstuttering and drivers again.

I have had a AMD card for years with no complaints and a ATI card before that.

All dis purchase justification.
