  1. Not sure if it's legit, but it certainly is interesting. New Stacker 830 up for sale via an OCN thread. https://www.overclock.net/threads/official-cm-stacker-830-fan-club.469119/page-6#replies
  2. Very cool, curious about their stuff. I don't think I've heard of them before. Curious indeed about your feedback, but I'll put them on my mental radar for sure.
  3. Awesome milestone! Good to still see you around.
  4. Saw this news a few days ago and FINALLY indeed! I haven't installed GeForce Experience in years and used the control panel minimally. Seconding what @Monsterkater mentioned though, app overhauls always have that potential to make things a little more roundabout to access at the same time, though I'm sure it will be a net positive.
  5. Looks like a fun board! Honestly the colored translucent case looks better than I would have expected with lighting. Great layout too. Added! Also looks good with the blue lighting. Stickers aren't my style, but it's a cool theme, and the blue/white isn't too common I feel but it looks refreshing. Go for it if it wouldn't be to much trouble, I'm always a fan of documenting stuff (contrary to my habits of always forgetting to do so for my own stuff). Sorry for the much belated replies as always. Hopefully it's not too much of a surprise coming from me.
  6. Well, this is what I get for not keeping up with EHW regularly. Only just found this thread, a whopping one hour before the event ends. So uh... In? (CptAsian as always, been folding 24/7 as usual.) Obviously won't be eligible for prizes, but that's honestly a good thing. I already have more tech stuff lying around than I know what to do with currently, and the nice stuff on offer would be more useful to others. Glad to see the strong turnout!
  7. Oh, just to update this thread again on the off chance anyone else comes by with something similar. The USB issue fixed itself the next time I shut down and moved the PC, so it's been back to working normally for the past month and a bit, fortunately. I did check on the warranty, and it was just about to run out, but I couldn't find any clear cut information on a replacement or anything. The intermittence of the issues I was having didn't give me enough confidence to try to get a replacement or anything in time.
  8. Whoops, I totally forgot to check this out in time! Thanks for setting up the giveaway regardless lol.
  9. Interesting, and I agree in the sense that it feels a little premature to make the jump to another major OS revision without developing 11 further - 11 will have felt really short lived to me if things pan out on this timeline. But yes, definitely interested to see what actually gets confirmed here.
  10. Just worked on a build for a friend in a Q300L V2, and I was interested in comparing with my Q300L. The I/O change is interesting to me, as the new solution is definitely good, but you lose some of the flexibility from the original. Perhaps they figured it wasn't used enough by their customers to make other compromises to do that again. New glass side panel is definitely nice. But the big stand-out thing to me was the bottom dust filter. It's still super flimsy, and is only held in by those silly rubber plugs. Easily the worst thing about the original case for me, and they didn't do a single thing to improve it. Little surprising to me.
  11. How is it? Always been a fan of the Avatar franchise, so I'm definitely interested in this one.
  12. Yep, that's exactly why I'm looking at Unicomps. I've heard that the original, from-factory build quality isn't always as good as the OG Model M (granted, that was years ago, so that may have changed), but considering the quality of what's currently out there from each manufacturer, and considering the price, I think the Unicomp makes a lot more sense unless you're seeking a Model M in good condition and you're willing to pay the price, or you're up for some keyboard restoration. Looks nice, added!
  13. Oh, wow. This would be quite something indeed. Very interested to see if something like this pans out; I've been wondering about the future of GTA:O myself.
  14. In as CptAsian! Should have at least one rig running.
  15. Yeah, I heard it got leaked and R* just said "ah hell" and released the full quality version early.
  16. Have you looked into Unicomps? I think that's what I'm leaning towards as far as finally pulling the trigger on a buckling spring board one day, but I'm not 100% set on that over an actual Model M just yet. Definitely seconding this. Hot swappable boards changed the way I do all of my keyboard-related purchasing. Looks nice! The top right plate covering unused switch "sockets" is really odd indeed. Never seen that before. Typing this on the Rosewill K85 from last month's FaT, thanks again @neurotix! I'll toy with it some (lighting, switches, o-rings) and report back in a few days hopefully.
  17. I'm in the same boat, would love to try some 150gs lol. And I still really want a buckling spring board.
  18. Lol we both wish. I never actually sat in a finished Recaro seat until months after my internship ended, at their booth at Petit Le Mans.
  19. "No thanks" to linear is the correct take lol. I like tactile and clicky pretty equally but I've never tried a linear board/switch that I liked. Just feels like something is missing with every keystroke.
  20. Oh man I totally forgot about this thread. Glad you guys found it and have taken some interest. The OP was pretty ambitious but I wrote it up out of sheer boredom at the time, so if I go back and redo it (which I should), I'll probably remove a good bit of content since I don't intend to keep up with CM's product line all the time, but I'm happy to maintain a little user list. I think I started it before embedded Google Docs files so I can do that as well to mirror the keyboard thread. I'll give the OP a quick update for now though since I'm in a rush atm. Anyways, the Q300L that I posted about a couple times in here has still been serving me really, really well nearly three years later, in the exact same configuration, and I do move it around a good bit. I might shake it up some next year, but for now it just needs one new fan since the bearing went bad a while ago. I bought a replacement but haven't gotten around to actually swapping it out yet. And @Sir Beregond, cool to see the Masterframe is working well for you. I really enjoy unique stuff like that. Even better when it's functional lol.
  21. Dang, that's the way it goes though sometimes. But I agree for sure, I understand why, but the shipping time for the price is pretty off-putting for me as well. I ordered probably 3 keycap sets that way and I'm not really planning on doing it again. Really trying to hold off on spending too much more on keyboard for a little while haha. Developed a few new money pits since.
  22. Thanks so much! PM sent. Great stuff as always everyone! Hoping I can ramp my folding activity back up before too long.
  23. Yikes, has it really been that long since I've checked in? Updated the spreadsheet, looks like I have some image links to update as well. Looks great! I always found transparent cases interesting. When are the new caps expected to show up?
  24. Eyy nice seat choice! I interned at the company that manufactures the composite seat shells for the Pole Position, Profi, and a couple motorsports seats as well.
