That's so convenient for a gamer who don't know much about hardware!  drool.gif

Not really. If something goes wrong you need to know your stuff to contain or fix it, especially the custom hardware interface.

But yeah, the hot swap feature for the components is a very good simplified way to upgrade for a gamer who doesn't delve into the specifics.

That look like a Thermaltake Level 10 copy  laugh.gif

Yeah that was my first though, that they bough the Level 10 GT design from thermaltake and made it their own. But the mineral cooling was out of this planet. This is definitely cost at least RM1.5K for a full spec silent running mineral cooled system.

Nah dude, that'll never happen. This is waaaaay into enthusiasts territory, but I can tell enthusiasts themselves will rather get a Little Devil case and go all out crazy.

Razer always has the best designs and ideas for really flashy and high-techy stuff --but the quality is questionable at times.
You guys checked out their latest audio line yet, the Adaros? The in-ears are going for RM319 on their website --I personally think that's overpriced for a gaming company to suddenly want to do music audio :/

I can't wait to see how the Razer Nabu will develop, though --it looks pretty useful.
*
=________= for that same price I'd rather get Shure or sennheiser headset. Razer audio products always sound like crap to me for their individual price ranges.

I know what you mean --I've tested a few different Razer headsets; they are not the best for that price point; but in my opinion, this two are the best in their audio that I've tried so far:

1) Razer Ferox --These things are really clear, don't expect so much bass; but it's really comfortable sound.
2) Hammerhead Pro --Comfortable bass, and acceptable highs and mids for a bass centric earphone (the price should drop a bit tho  cry.gif )

Take my opinion with a pinch of salt ya, this from my limited knowledge  blush.gif  rclxms.gif

Hahaha, can't stand the Ferox. The cons of working at a HiFi store part time while I study. Got poisoned by too many high end stuff. But still, I appreciate very good value for money products. And yea I agree, the Hammerhead Pro is a bit too pricey for it's sound. RM140 or so would be okay.

I am not sure if you could call RM319 is expensive when you are in audio equipment line.
that's pretty entry level price.

It is all depend on how your liking of the product would be,
i won't commend anything yet until i get my hand on that Adaro Stereo
*
True, RM319 maybe low end of the headphone spectrum, but I grade things based on performance. If I'm getting the same sound on a RM100 headset then 319 is way too pricey.

But agreed. Will wait till I have my hands on a demo unit and try it out.

God freaking damnit. I didn't subscribe this thread and missed the sales. If it's 50% I would have gotten a Blackshark or a Tiamat 7.1. Siiighhhh.

Guys, one question. My friend is thinking of buying the Razer Deathstalker Ultimate. Is it worth it? I'm not convinced by the price.

Hmmmm, that's what I thought as well. For almost 900+ you can get proper custom mechanical keyboards too. But I mainly wanted to ask and see if anybody has used that Switchblade UI.

Alrighty then, I'll go knock some sense into my buddy. biggrin.gif

The Ouroboros is actually much bigger than I thought. Before this I thought it was the same size as the madcatz rat sweat.gif

Haha that's why I wanted to get it in the first place. Either the Ouroboros or the Roccat XTD+, but both price tags put me off so I got a DA 4G instead.

Congrats on your new mouse. rclxms.gif

Google search for "What is a good gaming house","top gaming mouse of 2013"

TweakTown, NCIX tech tips provide real good advices on purchasing a new gaming mouse thumbup.gif

You're missing the point. Everyone gets the mouse they like, whether the dude buys ten Razer mice is up to him if he likes it. These reviews are the reviewer's own preferences, and more often then not these sites are sponsored and paid for. And they definitely are not "experts". So just because, as you said, "actually any expert on gaming mice can tell there are better varieties of gaming mice out there that beat Razor's quality", doesn't mean it holds true. Most sites say the Beats is crap but you still bought it. (btw I wanna ask how did you end up buying a fake lambo one?) rclxub.gif

But again, everyone to their own I guess. thumbup.gif

hmm.gif did I mention anything about persuading one to not buy a Razer? I'm just saying there's more mice better than Razer , I did not say "don't buy Razer! Razer sucks" I did not say that . In fact I'm also a satisfied Razer DeathAdder Black user for 3 years now. I know some reviews are not fully trustable, but as a Digital Mall frequent shopper, I get to try the latest gaming mice every time I shop, that's why I can say that some Razer mice offered less than its rival , but some equivalent, it depends solely on the particular model .
as for the replica Beats Lambo, that's one of the biggest mistakes I've made in my life. that's why before you buy any products, make sure you make use of your goddamn computer to do Google search beforehand !! vmad.gif but now as time passes, I do realise Beats By Dr. Dre are purely rubbish, except for the lows which is good for dubstep, beatbox, rapping etc. I broke my Beats Solo just one week after I purchased it, though it's heartbreaking due to the money I paid, but I did not regret breaking it because it is so not durable and reliable. 50 cents made better products happy.gif
*
Never said you you were implying don't buy Razer or it sucked either. Just the broad sweeping statement that to me was implying Razer was inferior due to 'expert' opinion. And yes, we always try to get the latest models that are popular. But again, like I said, everyone to their own. If they like a certain model, then buy it. Lets end it there. I myself use a deathadder, but would love to get a Roccat XTD+ on the future. biggrin.gif

Ouch dude. That's two Beat back to back. I presume the Solo you broke was an original? Yeah, try to find other users who had the product and ask for real world usage issues or advantages. I would recommend you the UltimateEars 9000 though. Wireless, extremely crystal clear, good bass, and sturdy.

And again, lets end it here. Or the Razer Thread overlords will screw Me over for diverting. tongue.gif

yeah the Solo is original where I got it for 400+ bucks during a promotion period in Harvey Norman.

haha if I gotta choose a new mouse, I'd go for Mionix Naos 7000. I prefer optical sensor over laser, not sure y'all preference though biggrin.gif

hmm.gif I have some bad experiences from Logitech. Their Z623 speaker really REALLY terrific for its price, I wonder how well does the UE9000 performs happy.gif
*
I'm also checking out a brand named Zowie. Friend used them and said it's fantastic. But the Zowie FK looks too close like a DA. Epic IR sensor though.

Yeah, Logitech has it's share of quality issues. But the higher end UE models retain it's former quality before being bought over by Logitech. Loved my UE900 IEM. You should try the UE9000. Of course it's unwritten that you should not drop, knock or scratch a headset lah. Otherwise the UltimateEars will do fine. Or the Beyerdynamic Custom ONE Pro. Best music/gaming headset IMO. Cheaper too at RM700+.

Zowie has gaming products? I thought it is a gaming team because my friend is team Zowie representing SASEA.

Hahaha well, again, if you want that headset, by all means go get it. biggrin.gif

Yeah LOL! Zowie sells gaming products. Mouse, keyboards, you name it. And if it's team Zowie means Zowie is sponsoring them for the Sudden Attack tournaments. LOL!

You can try these.

https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=ST&f=54&t=2761139

But if it's too expensive might as well buy a new mouse or fix it.
However this kit can be used in the future for other repairs so it's a good investment I guess.

Thanks for the link.
It's more worth to buy this kit since you can use for repair other things such as keyboard, mouse etc.
Instead of replacing whole mouse, you can buy mouse switch from taobao with few dollars and replace the switch by yourself.

No problems. Like I said it's for future investments. You can use it to fix many other things. And agreed on the Taobao deal. Just find a Taobao buyer on LYN and you're good to go ordering replacement parts.
