neverunderstood the reason for TKL keyboards besides them being more portable

you can have it close enough to your mouse to be ergonomic without the big ass numpad covering part of your mousepad area

idk most desks arent small enough for that tbh go ahead if u do have a small ass desk but most people have a decently sized one (like in this photo)

2023-01-23 02:04

yeah specially if you play with the keyboard like I or \. The numpad sometimes is off the desk for people who plays like that and smaller keyboards helps with that issue

2023-01-23 09:02

Maybe some people just dont use numpad. Or they have the keyboard sideways and it is just in te way. Especially when you play low sens its nice to have some extra space on the right side. Theres lots of reasons why TKL is better for some people. Having said that, I prefer the full size keyboards myself. I use my setup for work and use the numbad quitte a bit.

2023-01-23 00:05

I sometimes bump my hand into it when I flick to the left and having it further apart isn't as comfortable for me, so for gaming I would like to have tkl keyboard, but I use numpad fairly often

I couldn't stand a PC on a desk, it would drive me crazy that something is in my way all the time, that's the part of the reason I got only one monitor, I focus better with less shit on my desk.

Well if theres a good reason, like limitted space, I can understand. However, theres far more dust on the ground which your fans will suck into your PC reducing the lifespan of your components, or at least needing you to clean your dustfilters more frequent.

2023-01-23 00:24

I can highly recommend getting a decent monitor stand even if you stick to one monitor, you'll have zero monitors on your desk. It really does make a huge difference.

For Maximus Ranger Vii its recommended that you use the red memory slots (A2 and B2), not the black (most of the times its said that you should use the the color of which the one is most close to the CPU but for this mobo its an exception.). Doesnt have to do anything with your mobo or cpu though.

Nah bro, the pc was fine westerday. I woke up today and it wasn't working anymore. I press the power button, my computer starts, but after a few seconds it shuts down. Then after 2-3 seconds it automatically starts turning on again and a few seconds later it shuts down again. It's stuck in this infinite loop of turn on and turn off

2023-01-23 01:18

1 reply

I already said it has nothing to do with your cpu/motherboard being broken. I just noticed that you used the black slots for your RAM and said that it's recommended that you use the read ones instead to get the optimized performance

The table is pretty cool for the space it gives + my room doesnt have much space so a corner table is nice space for the money The only annoying thing is that after hitting it too much there's a big crack under my mousepad and now IKEA doesn't make these tabletops anymore so I have to be careful to not fully break it lol And the white box is just storage space for documents and random stuff

just the perspective, it's a 2k 27 inch ips panel (widescreen obv), you can see that in the second photo.

I originally had 2x of the larger ones but I gave one to my ex-GF to help her make her PC setup. Then when I bought 144hz, they were about 4x as expensive in 2560*1440 IPS (long time ago, not so much anymore). Since I had to settle at the time for a standard 1080p screen again, I just use the larger screen for tiling my applications, which I actually really love because the extra desktop estate allows for more windows 🤯

2023-01-23 10:51

if you play csgo using middle monitor that should be uncomfortable af Corner desk only for the space and not for the sitting in the middle. (personal experience)

There's nothing uncomfortable about it, both of my arms rest on the desk. The only difference is that there is a gap between my torso and the desk, but that doesn't really seem relevant. I thought it would be weird at first too, but I actually repositioned for the leg room, and what I found out was that this is actually much more comfortable for my arms also. And now I have this extra open area to become a true Amerifat if I ever take up competitive sabotaging of my own health ever again 🤔

I have the same one but 144hz I think, but the stand is so annoying. Makes it really hard to organise stuff on the desk. I had to turn the stand all the way to one side and the monitor to the other side so that I have space from my mouse and keyboard the way I like it.
