    Well it's a darn good thing that the keyboard isn't for you then, right? Just because you wouldn't use the LCD, doesn't mean others don't. They have value to some, and that's why they buy it.

    I have a G11, and I love it. I use the macro keys. I wouldn't personally use the LCD, though I can see why some people would, so all the power to them.

    Bottom line - opinion and preference are just that, so don't insult them, and say "no one uses the LCD" because obviously tons of people do.

    BUT, we're all digressing here. This is about posting builds, with pictures, not arguing semantics about keyboards. Everyone needs to get back on topic. Consider this a final warning, if you must.

    Second time posting :P Upgraded my gpu, and some accessories

    Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit
    i5-750 @ 2.67ghz (Upgraded the stock fan because I was oblivious to how shit they are, now have a CoolerMaster Hyper TX3 Evo..Dropped near full load temps by like ~25-30C)
    8GB (4X2gb) Ram (By Corsair) @ 1333MHz
    Gigabyte P55-UD3R
    MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II OC 1G
    1gb Samsung HD103SJ
    1 x 90mm fan my dad found at work screwed to the side of the case..plugged into a powerboard
    Razer Naga
    Razer Black Widow Ultimate
    Logitech G35

    Think that's about it. I want to upgrade.. but I don't really need to, everything works well in games and I'm most likely getting a laptop for uni soon.

    LCD screens on keyboards are a gimmick in my opinion and so are backlight keys. The info you get on keyboard LCD screens are usually useless(clocks, wow stats) they can all be done on your own computer screen. The vent one looks useful but you can just use a vent overlay anyways. That's just my opinion of course, but whatever... for 100$+ why not get a quality mechanical keyboard instead of some cheap keyboard. I had the original g35 and I barely used the LCD screen. And the backlight excuse is so dumb, everyone knows you just want it because it looks cool.

    Like Drunkenvalley, what respect I had gained for you, Mortalis, is fast draining. 2 posts above yours, Uggor just told everyone to stay ON TOPIC of Post your gaming setup.... not bash keyboards or other peoples' opinions.

    I'm sorry your experience with the G15 (not G35, that's a headset) was bad. I have had my version 2 of the G15 for 3+ years now and it works as good as it did when I first got it and I love it. Do I realize it's not the best keyboard out there? Yeah. But at the time when I got it my standards were much lower and I also saw it for only about $50-60 at my local Best Buy, so honestly? It was not expensive at all, compared to how many keyboards, even bad mechanical keyboards by certain companies who build them cheaply cost well over $100. Stop playing holier than thou, it's unbecoming of you on these forums and will not gain you any respect, as you are not doing it in a very respectful manner - OR in the right place.

    * User was infracted. Report and move on, also, you could be a bit more respectful. Don't mock others knowledge with computers.

    That post was just to explain myself a bit more, fyi. I have always been that way, I always think my opinion is right even though everyone has their own tastes and I respect that. I'll just stop doing this I guess.

    Yeah... typically when a mod tells you to stop whatever you're doing, you stop.

    We couldn't care less I think was his point hehe

    I like your setup, although it's clear where your money goes and that's not put towards the surroundings lol - A few things in that setup I wouldn't mind having.

    I think sitting that close to 27" will seriously damage your eyesight :P Or at least it does mine. I'm at least 60cm from my screens and still find it too close to take in everything around me.

    27"? All just 1080p, I would assume? Too large for that resi, IMO. Causes some pixel blur and whatnot. Noticeable to me. Anything over 23" is outside of my preference. Otherwise, based on your sig, you've got a very nice rig.

    Yeah, I have the 23.6" iiyamas and they are perfect for 1080, I can't stand anything bigger at the same res, looks bad imo.

    I'm a bit puzzled by Mortalis' comment about backlit keyboards. Of course I wanted that feature because it looked cool. Why else? o_O It doesn't really tell me anything.

    However, it's picture time.
    So Imma post some peripherals. Just gotta get 'em over from my iPhone (blergh, damn phone) and...






    Oh, yeah, and don't buy these things.
    Gigabyte Aircruiser N300, which quite plainly suck. Also, this one unit in particular has died on me, so it won't be doing anything henceforth.


    Inside the case...
    I didn't feel like moving the case for better lighting, so the iPhone bumped up the ISO by a lot, causing pixel artifacts all over. Oh well!


    ---------- Post added 2012-01-17 at 02:04 PM ----------

    Yet more pictures.
    Some monitor, mouse and keyboard, derp. I tried to get some decent shots of the tablet, but I'll have to clean off the dust first.

    For the love of god... moar.

    For a moment I thought you said your name was Dell, until I noticed the text on the monitor is actually readable.
