Lol.
Nice!

So what are you going to do with those CPUs?

I want one of them bad boys. :(
I'm using two of them for the necklaces, two for belt buckles, and I think I'll turn one into a Christmas tree ornament.

Who was it that said their firefall install was going slow? Mine is slugging along at a measly 300Kbps...

None of my razer products have broken yet, why all the hate again?

Mine don't break, well other than my Onza, they are just constantly glitchy and sometimes stop working. I haven't downloaded synapse on my new comp because synapse is sooooo -blam!-. For me it caused more problems than benefits on my laptop. Really synapse is just an annoyance. My blackwidow came with a scratch inside the clear plastic with the razer logo at the bottom. A month ago my imperator went into bootloader mode by itself, which I was fortunately able to fix. razer stuff is just soooo bad quality it doesn't last.

And for the premium price you pay for it it should be top notch.


@Avenger What? Do you want 240p laptop webcam pics???!?

Don't get me wrong razer products are great as long as they work, the problem is they don't work at 100% for long enough of a time for them to be worth it.

Why is there only mention of Windows? Do you not have any experience with *nix systems, or did you feel that it wouldn't be beneficial to thread to mention any? Just wondering.

The problem I have is that I have adapted to use it, and would not feel righ using a M$ controller (which are just as terrible quality). And hey, at least razer keeps replacing them under warranty. Been through 2. On my third. I'm not even abusive of any of my stuff.

Here is my computer that I built over the summer. The HP monitors were the closest ones I could find to what I have (they're from a few years ago), and the keyboard is also from years ago.

Edit: Oh yeah, Skyrim is 50% off on Steam right now ($29.79 USD).

Nope, Prescott 478. I was thinking about getting an ASRock P4i65G for $3.99 and putting it in a lunchbox and run Linux but I'd rather have the jewelry.

I preordered the Onza back in 2007 when Halo 3 was released and didn't even get it until the actual release in 2011. My first controller was DOA, as in it wouldn't even turn on when I plugged it in. I contacted Amazon and got a replacement and it's been working perfectly ever since. I could never go back to a regular Xbox controller or Logitech gamepad.

This is primarily a gaming PC thread. I doubt most people will build $800+ PC's just to run Linux. I understand that you can dual boot, although you would only truly need Linux if (1) you couldn't afford or Pirate Windows or (2) you're a programmer and you already know what you're doing.

Anyone know why a temp sensor on a fan would not work? This is the front fan of my HAF X. Only reason I can think is faulty fan. The fan spins fine, and it is plugged in right.

Makes sense.

I doubt most people will build $800+ PC's just to run Linux.You're right. They would spend considerably less on said PC (which is where you and the people who frequent this thread would come in handy). My main desktop is one I built for under $400. It has a decent processor, 8GB RAM, lower-end (but good enough for my 1080p monitor) GPU, etc. I don't use it for gaming, obviously.

or you already know what you're doing.Fair point, but everyone has to start somewhere. I wasn't born a Debian user - I made the switch from Windows and OS X at one point, and a thread like this would've been of great help back then.

edit: Also, that's a switch, not a router.

Sound like typical Razer shenanigans. Have your Onza's left and right stick's rubber pads worn off? And have your buttons started malfunctioning. If non of those have happened you must have really good one or not use it often.

Me. That's a helluva a lot better than mine. Mine was going at an average of 50KB/s.
