I have big hands and I can't comfortably use number 6.

I use:

1-5
Shift AND control
q, e, and some of the buttons on the M90 (the ones that are comfortable for me) that are simply numpad bound. I have yet to actually set up the K90's G keys. haha

I think my mouse is dying T.T

It randomly disconnects from the pc, I get the "hardware found" sound, and it works again after like 2 seconds. Sometimes it happens 10 times in 2 minutes, other times it doesn't happen for an hour ><

[DeltrusDisc]

Which mouse?

[BicycleMafioso]

Sounds more like an issue with USB-connectivity than the mouse itself. That's why you use gold-plated; It's softer and melts into place! (and slightly less corrosion)

[protput]

Razer imperator, 3 years old. Gold-plated usb connector...

time to go shopping!

That's the one thing Razer gets right.

MAKE THE THINGS GOLD PLATED!!!

ALL OF THE THINGS!!!

[protput]

Can't complain about the mouse, really. Always been a champ.

Eh, 3 years =1200ish days = 0.066 euros a day.

Money well spent

Gold plated mouse!

As long as they gold plate the right parts of the connector lol.

Alright, I guess it would be pointless to make a thread in the computer section, I'm just going to ask here. Anybody has any idea how to make your PC hibernate if it doesn't have the option to hibernate? (I'll have to unplug it's stuff to make some changes and I hate closing all the programs running.)


I'm on W7 Ultimate x64

I use the exact same config

Go to the 'Power options', click 'Change plan settings', click 'Change advanced power settings', navigate to 'Sleep' column and then 'Allow hybrid sleep'. Turn that option 'Off'.

You should be able to see hibernate option now under sleep.

[DeltrusDisc]

Hibernate is evil I tell you... EVIL

[Ghâzh]

On an unrelated note I find my post count totally perfect right now. I may never post again on a meaningful forum section. The horror!

[inux94]

My god, the Post your gaming setup thread.

[Xuvial]

It's has been quite a while since a mod had to come in and tap the hammer, I was actually starting to get worried. It's just a part of that thread at this point really

Well, a mod was in there...

So I'm putting together new build for my brother as a birthday present. What do you think about something like this for under 800€/$?
- i5 3570k
- asrock z77 pro3
- gtx 660 twin frozr III
- g.skill ripjaws 8gb dualkit
- WD caviar 500gb blue
- bitfenix outlaw

Comes out at roughly 760€ (same in dollars give or take few bucks). Any constructive criticism? Could get a Windforce card for the same price as the Twin Frozr.. Also that case, any better alternatives for 40-50 bucks?

[Butler to Baby Sloths]

For the price of a gtx 660 I can get a factory overclocked gigabyte HD 7870 with the Windforce3 cooler.

Maybe you want to go for a Caviar Black if that is going to be the system drive? Would be about 20 euros extra.

Have you already got a PSU and Windows?

[Ghâzh]

I can't. 7870 is 50 bucks more than 660. Valid point about that caviar black but I'm already pretty tight on the budget and trying to cut corners wherever I can. Aren't blue drives like blacks but cheaper components, shorter warranty and smaller cache?

Oh and forgot the PSU which was supposed to be XFX 450 core/pro. I have plenty windows copies already.
