Use wireless peripherals and longer display cables to keep your system further away from you. This might sound like the most basic and simple solution, but it's also the most effective. For the high pitch whining noise produced by electronics, nothing is more effective at remedying this noise than distance. The further away you are, the less likely you are to hear the noise. Noise cancelling headphones. This one helps with masking the PC noise, but can be bitter sweet if you do not like the feel of noise cancelling headphones.
I myself dislike them as they often make my ears sweat and they make my head feel like it's under water, but this will simply be a preference thing. Do note that you do not need to be listening to anything to benefit from the noise cancelling properties, as they typically do well with shutting out a decent amount of noise passively.
I wish you the best of luck with achieving the level of silence you are looking for. If you have any questions, let us know. I began this build and now I'm looking to wrap up loose ends and get parts ordered and appreciate any feedback. A wireless HP printer already connected to the network. The Thermaltake doesn't look to fit LGA Also you won't need thermal paste as the coolers already come with thermal paste.
Last you'll need an Operating System unless you already have a license copy of Windows. The below link is the changes you advised. Anything else? Looks good? That does looks good to me! The client is retired and wants this to be an affordable but psudo-sort-of "forever" computer. Given that, I assume this build offers accessible hardware upgrades as time will inevitably deem necessary, correct? The sustainability I was aiming for was another 11, 12 maybe 15 years given what would be DDR5 or maybe even 6 gb of supported ram and what would be either upgrade to whatever supported later edition i9 it can handle and perhaps as he may use it as a DIY roku-tv-type Kodi-isc media server.
Maybe add that graphics card if for HD viewing or grandkids want to game on it. I want to set expectations and adhere to his under 1k budget as much as I can while still ensuring viable longevity. If this has that, Ill order it today. I'm going to have it out of the box turn-on-ready after reinstalling everything.
The extra savings I figured might be used to invest in a larger hard drive or external drive. It's a good price for the hardware. I think this may be as low as I can get it. Typically newer processors and generations of RAM can require a motherboard swap. Typically every couple years or so it seems the socket type for processors at least for Intel changes which would require a motherboard swap to something new to be compatible. With what you have, you can add on a video card at any time with what you have picked out however.
For durability and longevity, both AMD and Intel are very stable processors. If anything were to go out it would be another computer component ex. With that being said, I believe the AMD chips are described as lasting up to 5 years and the Intel chips are up to years. You can't go wrong with either chip really. But if you're only focused on the CPU lasting many years and not the other components, than go with an Intel chip.

An old gaming keyboard that's been through a lot of torture, and works flawlessly, however I'd like to change it out. Hyper X cloud alpha headset. Considering I use a blue snowball I don't use the headset mic, Alesis iO2 express. Music and gaming purposes. Very easy to grip and the perfect size for my hand. It's classic and absurdly lightweight.
Mainly used for racing games or some FPS' Blue snowball, I Use this for communication instead of the headset mic due to the audio catching over the headset mic. Yes i took off the badge on the front because the reflection of it was kind of distracting Don't worry!
I can put it back on if i want! I Don't have a mouse-pad as of right now. My favorite peripheral on my desk is my mouse and headset. Thank you guys for the chance! Stay safe! And also I have been using my peripheral and it glitching sometimes. I would love to get this upgrade as i'm getting into software development and gaming and with my current peripherals it will be hard for me to do these things especially gaming.
The weight feels really nice, and the shape fits well in my hand. Razer Huntsman - My first keyboard i bought. Very fast and not too loud. Does take up a large part of my desk. Hyper Fury S Mousemat - Great mousepad, was a huge upgrade from just my desk. Really like the performance for the price.
Razer Mouse Bungee - A gift from my brother. Really helps with cord management. Honestly really great product. My favorite peripheral is my mouse.
The performance is such a jump from the off brand mouse i was using. One of the streamers I watch uses them and can hear every tiny sound. I was also looking into purchasing a blue yeti microphone, but the price is a little high. I will probably settle for one of the amazon "streamer" kits. PC was built with Microcenter parts in Nov I have been wanting to upgrade these for a while, just have not got around to it. My first upgrade would be to the keyboard mechanical and then to the mouse.
Thank you! We recently bought this pc for school work due to Covid. I plan to upgrade a lot. This PC is meant for basic things not gaming so I need to upgrade parts but I do plan to get a proper keyboard and mousepad soon. The PC is custom-built during the week of August 2nd.
My favorite peripheral is the soundbar. I would upgrade probably the keyboard first as it is the oldest part but still works. I would upgrade my mouse to any decent brand of a wireless mouse. Ultrawide Global map mouse pad bought from Wish. Feels and performs outstanding, especially for the price. Would possibly move up to the OM-X in the future, but I'm happy with this one for now. The only upgrade I'm currently planning on is to get a better monitor and probably give this one to my son to connect to his XBox One.
Landscape display Great for playing games moniter2: dell 24 inch. Portrait display moniter good for managing discord and watching YouTube chair: good for sitting favorite peripheral is my headset because the sound is very clear and there are two separate audio tracks for chat and game meaning you could turn one up or the other to hear better, say if the game is to loud.
Would prefer something wireless but it has served me well. Anne Pro 2: My favorite peripheral. Compact, good looking and amplified by the pudding key caps.
HyperX Cloud Flight: Great headset, love the wireless. Although audio quality and comfort are spotty. The balisong trainer I just got since it seemed like fun to learn to flip it. I'm kind of a sucker for peripherals, but I would love a full matching Lightspeed set of peripherals, like the Logitech G and the full size Logitech G Also their new steering wheel looks super fun.
I love my Logitech mouse. The only room for improvement would be a softer keyboard or wireless mouse set up. ShuttlePRO v2 - video editing and general purpose macro launcher. Haven't had a chance to play games yet. Future Upgrade: New keyboard for main computer. Searching a mechanical one preferably with multi device connection. Glorious Model - O mouse 2.
Corsair K70 SE 3. Blue Yeti on Arm 4. My next upgrade is most likely replacing the Mouse Mat as it is starting to fray, or getting some fresh new keycaps. It's somewhat manageable for games but my beats are starting peel on the ear pieces.
Also I play on a y50 from , so being limited to 60hz, I have to upgrade anything I can. My ideal wishlist is Logitech G mouse for accurate shooting, Logitech Pro X keyboard for fast responsive mechanics, and Logitech Pro X for that crispy wireless audio.
A Logitech G x Herman Miller gaming chair would be nice to place my cheeks on but that's a bit out of budget. Everything you see here was bought at the Micro center in Rockville, MD except for the keyboard, headset, xbox controller and Hue-2 system. To be quite honest the only thing I really need to upgrade is the mouse. Switched over to the Model O at the start of quarantine when I built this beast of a PC, and it doesn't feel as good as my old logitec g Love the Dr.
DrLupo has been an idol to me since the beginning of Fortnite. My mouse is a bit outdated and I feel like his signature mouse would go perfect with my setup and help me competitively.
My favorite peripheral is my mouse pad because it covers my whole desk. Being that DrLupos mouse is wireless the amount of space is endless. My dream mouse is to have a logitech G Pro Wireless. A little bit of everything.
Mostly this is for League of Legends and the random steam game or two. My favorite here is the Logitech G mouse. I love that it is wireless and has a super long battery life.
If i were to upgrade anything here i'd be looking to upgrade the keyboard. It works well but there are much better options. Maybe go for the Logitech G My parents bought the PC just for school work because i I had a cheap laptop. My parents bought it it kinda works good but i stick with it. The keyboard and mouse came with the PC and i am currently trying to be a professional Esports gamer.
Please help me with my setup,it will mean the world to me. That said: Windows 10 lightweight support internet gaming - specifically, tabletop simulator on Steam; my current laptop has a lot of lag despite a good internet connection in the house.
HP Envy M6 I will probably also want to cast from this machine good camera and mic - the camera on my work machine is blurry Dell Vostro backlit keyboard, ports to support wireless keyboard and mouse. I'd recommend checking these out. Be sure to make sure that your store is selected at the top of the page. I would say the ASUS is just a little more than i wanted to spend and is beautifully lightweight Doesn't seem to have a way to cable in to my modem to diagnose or overcome connection issues.
The HP Pavilion seems to have almost everything I want - maybe a little on the heavy side, but I have better computer luggage than I used to and it might not be as important as I think it is. I could stretch to afford this too. The Acer Nitro is out; I'm just not willing to spend this much money on myself. My local store Cambridge appears to have all of these. Although you offered choices thank you! I'd like to hear why you chose these, but I'm happy enough with choice 2 that I probably don't need reinforcement.
If I go with the HP, can you recommend a mouse and keyboard? Any reason I should not go with a simple and cheap option? GTX which will offer great performance for the games you're interested in. I wanted to give you options at multiple price points that would offer you good, better, best for the price you mentioned. I'd recommend a decent keyboard, but it would be mostly dependant on your budget and your needs.
I spend my time working from a keyboard so I spend more than most. I'd be happy to recommend others if you're unhappy with these. Did you have any thoughts on the Inspiron Dell wants to sell me? I am not afraid of refurbished, and the specs of this machine address several of the things I know I want - thank you!
My computer needs have atrophied extremely over the past few years, as I have moved more firmly to separate work and home. My home machine only needs to be able to game, and I am absolutely not a power gamer. I have extensive access to Office products and storage at work; I do not anticipate typing more than chat comments on this machine. Also, i will be typing and mousing from the depths of my comfy chair.
Tempted by anything named redragon - I'm Welsh. The discussion I found on brown switch online takes me back - clicky keys! I used to care so much about these things! I am definitely thinking hard about these options. Both of these mice seem subtly right-handed - I am left-handed. I do mouse with right hand buttons - I started my professional life in tech support and needed to be able to use other people's mice - but I use my left hand.
Thank you for your time. I will definitely go with the HP. I will think about the redragon keyboard. I will keep looking at mice. It does have Intel's new Xe integrated graphics which will perform better than the previous generations by a fair amount. It may still struggle to offer you decent framerates for tables with multiple assets or games that have a slightly higher graphics fidelity. That being said, it is a thin and light laptop which would be great for travel.
It's an extremely portable laptop. Especially for a I prefer the brown switches for their tactile feedback! The blue switches are great too, however, they are quite a bit louder than reasonable. Especially since you mentioned you'll be using your laptop microphone. If you're planning on hosting meetings or other things, I might suggest a more quiet keyboard, like the Logitech you mentioned. Membrane keyboards are typically more quiet than mechanical.
Red switches are very fast and typically a bit quieter, however, they are a bit too sensitive for my liking. I have heavy hands that depress the key when I rest it on the keyboard.
Check out our recent article on Mechanical or Membrane. If noise is an issue for you, one can always purchase O-rings to dampen the noise that the key makes when bottoming out. Sorry, I didn't think to offer you an ambidextrous mouse. I don't have much experience with ambidextrous mice, however, the Logitech G G is great for an inexpensive yet high-quality option. Another mouse that I have experience with would be the Logitech G PRO It does have mouse buttons that can be switched for left-handed use.
Always happy to help! What's your go-to keyboard? It'll be running at two years old come October and the switches are still super responsive. I also swapped out the original keycaps for the PBTs What brand and model of keyboard do you currently use? Or which was the best one you've ever had that you wish was still in production?
Built like a champ! Love the Cherry MX reds for gaming. Got my Logitech lightspeed headset and mouse to match. This is such a slick board. I believe one of our techs also uses one of these. My daily work keyboard. It lacks the RGB but very responsive. I love how clicky it is, but not too clicky to where it bothers people if i dont have my mic on push to talk! I like the color customization it has as well as saved slots you can change the color on the fly.
I really enjoy the droplet effect! Dont mind the bottle hahah i dont really have pictures of my keyboard. Oh I'm minding the bottle! I didn't even know Jameson had a cold brew! That sounds delicious! Thanks for sharing your setup and heck yes, HyperX!!! Also, second question, what rank are you in CSGO? A very comfy keyboard.
I love those keycaps! The GMMK is great. I won't lie, I hated it at first due to it missing some of the functions I used a ton. It lacks a physical print screen button, the RGB settings reset every single time you restart the computer, and for some reason it won't remember to keep my RGB off when I turn it off after restarting the PC. Sadly, the RGB is still very flaky and won't remember to stay off. This is a bummer for battery life and people like me that find RGB to be distracting in general.
The switches feel fine, a lot like Cherry MX Red's. The aluminum frame feels nice and solid and the extra caps that were provided were much appreciated. The caps themselves do feel extremely cheap though, so they may warrant replacement over time. For the price, it's definitely a solid wireless mechanical keyboard.
I'll add some pictures once I get home. I also await this. My Logitech G Pro at home is great but a wireless Lightspeed option would be better and make my setup look clean. My PC is a a massive open frame system with a mm liquid-filled anchor attached to it, so I can't move it closer to the couch. I'd also rather not have a long USB cable strewn across the floor, so wireless is definitely a requirement. Since it's wireless, I want battery life to last as long as possible, so I need it to allow me to keep lighting off.
And if so, what are your opinions of it? Logitech has heard our cries. Should see these in the market come June. I'll get a video unboxing completed soon. Here's some info on SteelSeries OmniPoint switches! This keyboard looks like an amazing buy, packed full of features with IP32 water resistance for protection against spills among others.
If I buy another keyboard in the near future, this will be it. However, there are numerous projects that still run well on older versions of the Raspberry Pi. Below is a list of six classic Pi projects that can breathe new life into older hardware. It allows you to start prints from your web browser, monitor prints remotely, and easily create time lapses. If I see an issue with a print I can stop or pause it from my phone.
