    Audeze Mobius Review / Preview - Head-Fi TV

    Thanks for sharing, I actually just picked up a set of the Arctis Pro Wireless over the weekend and plan on selling my Mobius. I initially wanted something to replace my aging Astro A50's and after a few weeks with the Mobius I find myself still using the Astros anyways. Mobius offers a lot of...

    Audeze Mobius review / impressions

    Bought these a few months back and got them a week ago. I'm not really impressed with the package as a whole for gaming. The sound is good and they have some cool features, but the ergnomics suck and they're straight up annoying to use. I hate having to fiddle with the buttons and scroll...

    PC Enthusiast-Fi (PC Gaming/Hardware/Software/Overclocking)

    Can you guys recommend any mini-vacuum cleaner like devices for cleaning off your desk?  I don't know if it's just where I live but it's incredibly dusty, and my desk has too much stuff like monitors and speakers on it to wipe down easily.  My normal vacuum cleaner doesn't pick up fine dust off...

    The newer k70 has a full sized wrist rest as well as backlit keys.  There are also more switch options as opposed to just red.  I used to own the K65, it's very great solid keyboard and I'd definitely recommend it.  I would have upgraded to the k70 in a heartbeat since it pretty much addresses...

    PC Enthusiast-Fi (PC Gaming/Hardware/Software/Overclocking)

    Quote: I don't have much experience with Nvidia but a 680 should run pretty much all of your games at 60fps, especially if you do a little bit of overclocking. If you want to save money though, 7950's are dipping below $200 pretty regularly and you can get even a 7970 for under $300...

    PC Enthusiast-Fi (PC Gaming/Hardware/Software/Overclocking)

    Uh, depends what exactly you want your system to be able to do and what games you're playing.  I am using an HIS IceQ 7970, standard clocks, so only a tiny bit faster than a 7950, and also happen to game on 1440p.  You should be able to play most non-demanding games at max settings with a good...

    Keyboard-Fi

    So I was browsing around reddit and came across this pic: http://i1.minus.com/iJaYRUhtggO7N.jpg   Top comment valued the collection at around $6000... that's just nuts.  And I thought me spending a few hundred on a keyboard was already extreme.

    Oh, rofl, I didn't even realize there was a Steam tab, good thing you brought that up.  Kukuk I'll pm you the steam key then.

    Everything this bundle was for Origin unfortunately, do you still want it?

    I have a few left over codes from the bundle as well, I still have Dead Space Origin, Burnout, Crysis2, Dead Space 3, and Medal of Honor.  You can PM me if you want one.

    It was liquid nitrogen, not helium: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKN4VMOenNM   A CPU has no moving parts and is entirely enclosed, unlike a harddrive.  They're also made out of ceramics, silicone, and metals that are far more temperature resistant than a harddrive with a fragile disk...

    Android-fi!

    The new Nexus 7 isn't terribly amazing in my opinion.  It's pretty much got the same specs as the one year old Nexus 4, but with a nicer screen.  1920x1200 is pretty sweet but not phenomenal, plenty of phones have that kind of resolution in a smaller space nowadays.  The best thing about the new...

    You can usually get away with just tapping the metal part of your computer case every now and then, that should discharge any static buildup.

    There are so many promos for ram now that there's really no reason not to get 8gb in my opinion.  Newegg throws it in with motherboards all the time.  Also, newer operating systems actually do make use of extra ram to cache stuff, so it doesn't really go to waste.  I got 32gb of ram last year...

    So you're looking for something simpler or even tenkeyless?  If you like backlighting you can get a Noppoo Choc Pro or a Ducky shine.  CM also makes a few boards that are of decent quality and are easily obtainable in the US.

     GPU mining is way outdated, I started mining with 2x 7970's back in March and I've yet to break even.  If you compare the cost of GPU's to the competition out there:   AMD 7970, which mines at 600mh/s for $350 =  1.9mh/s per dollar USB Block Erupter, 330mh/s for $100 =  3.3 mh/s per...

    Quote: Wow that looks sweet, I've been hoping that companies would start to upgrade from 1080p.  With retina resolutions becoming so mainstream in tablets and laptops I'm really hoping that desktops get an upgrade soon too. On the other hand though, a lot of the newer games out there are...

    Bitcoins are very liquid now, it's very easy to convert them to USD or whatever you want.  If you are lazy and don't want to really deal with too much tech you can just use an online wallet, which should be fine as long as you don't plan on holding onto any coins for too long. If you're...

    Rate the video games you're currently playing

    A few of the models stood out to me. A large number of details have been textured on instead of actually molded. You can sort of tell that it was developed with aging consoles in mind, and while the PC version definitely has a lot of improvements a lot of things like the base models still stick...

    Far Cry 3 was pretty unique, the entire open world thing was really cool and the graphics were great too.  I just didn't like the storyline that much, you pretty much get this bloodrage and insta-ditch all of your friends.  Everything in the storyline seems to suggest that you're just kind of a...

    Windows 8...

    I've had the same issue that you have.  The way that most people do it is running the upgrade assistant again, which part way through will give you the option to download an iso/create a usb thumbdrive to install Windows 8 off of.  You can enter the same serial number that you received even if...

    That's interesting, since you can't really scam easily on ebay as paypal favors the buyer in claims too much.

    Ety HF5 or Klipsch X10? (SAME PRICE)

    The x10's are definitely better value because they're marked down so much. The two earphones have very different signatures though, the HF5's will be much more analytical and focused on mids/highs while the x10's will be bassier. If you like the signature of the HF5's, you might want to look...

    Diablo 3 boring?

    Blizzard is working on it, and in my personal opinion they're going in the right direction. I'm hoping the new bosses and game modes in 1.05 will give d3 more of an endgame. I wish there was something like the item world that they had in disgaea, that was super fun. Basically each piece of...

    Diablo III Character Poll

    It seems like they're finally on the right track now with the new patches.  I'm actually really looking forward to 1.05 and the new bosses/difficulty systems.  Ever since 1.04 came out with the new legendaries Inferno has just been a breeze, hopefully now there'll actually be something tough so...
