Neovalen Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Please tell me you don't have that Razer keyboard on wave lighting, Neo...No, but I do change it quite often. Even have a few game specific profiles set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oqhansoloqo Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Also I wouldn't go any lower than 16GB of RAM trust me that extra 8GB helps a ton, heck even 12GB would be good.I agree, if I was building a new system or doing a major upgrade I would buy more than 8GB of RAM these days.

TechAngel85 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Why? Unless you're doing rendering and content creation then 8GB is all you need for gaming and everyday tasks. Here's a video. 2yrs old but still true: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantSP Posted August 5, 2015 Author Share Posted August 5, 2015 Personally I like Razer gear for peripherals. I went with the Razer Blackwidow Chroma Stealth at Xmas... much overkill but I love it. I use a Razer Naga as my mouse.OMG, how do you keep track of those thumb buttons? There is no way I can justify AU$320 for a keyboard! Looks nice though. Why? Unless you're doing rendering and content creation then 8GB is all you need for gaming and everyday tasks. Here's a video. 2yrs old but still true:I was going to say much the same as I had come to the same conclusion, but these days RAM is so cheap, why not go with the flow? By the way guys, I appreciate all the input in this matter. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neovalen Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 There is also much cheaper non chroma options with only one color. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nozzer66 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Neo's just showing the Bling Bling. :) I have a Razer Naga MMO mouse with the 12 thumb buttons on the side. Extremely handy for MMO's, natch. I play one called The Secret World (which BTW I recommend wholeheartedly) and when muscle memory kicks in it's so easy and comfortable to use it's just not funny. Mine's the older, wired version with the standard Razer green glow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neovalen Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Hey look, Skylake just launched... yawn. Processor increases have really been less than stellar for several years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantSP Posted August 5, 2015 Author Share Posted August 5, 2015 Exactly... /*yawn*/.I'm building a new system and even I'm not impressed by Skylake. Why I was even looking at it though is another matter, I know I know, settle on the components and buy the damn thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nozzer66 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I beat ya Grant. I just specced up a roughly 3 grand build for the next machine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phazer11 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 That's just mean Nozzer, taunting Grant like that. And honestly once you have a computer built I can't see any way to justify 3k for an upgrade. I mean lmao. Unless you're scrapping all of your current parts which is silly and wasteful IMO.

Nozzer66 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I do it often. I give the old machines to a local charity for the kids hospital. 3 of my last 4 machines plus a PS2 AND PS3 have gone like that. And no offence meant, Grant, BTW. :) The 3K machine's a bit of a what if, anyway. It's not likely to happen any time real soon. About all I may do to the current machine is add another SSD for games and leave the current one for system stuff. And about all I'd need after that is a borderline upgrade to maybe a 980 from the 780 Ti... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantSP Posted August 6, 2015 Author Share Posted August 6, 2015 No worries, I've got thicker skin than that. I'm starting to get the supplier's quotes back now, some are willing to bend over backwards to supply everything together, with pleasant discounts as well. Nice! Won't be long now.
