When does Sony do their big show?

#4 xl2420t or the vg248qe in Hardware

VG248QE = 1ms response time (newer)
XL2420T = 2ms response time (older)

That should make the decision easy for you.

#10 Which Mouse? Logitech G400 or CM Storm Recon? in Hardware
frknMany report the zowie's to have top-tier tracking on solid color mousepads, but minor issues with multi color pads (i.e. puretrak talent). They are fantastic mice, though

Ah yeah, I forget about the multicolored jitter issue because I've always had a black mousepad and not many people have Puretrak Talents. Easier and cheaper to just go with the standard SteelSeries Qck+ or Qck Heavy.

Added that to the con's list.

#6 I was looking at computers around 500 budget build in Hardware

Instead of old builds on YouTube, check this up-to-date site out OP.

Figure out a happy medium between the Modest and Fair builds. (not sure why the fair build is showing $378 total, it is an error - the builds are supposed to increase in price as you go further down the list)
www.logicalincrements.com

Hope that helps.

#5 Which Mouse? Logitech G400 or CM Storm Recon? in Hardware

I vote neither... Realize that G400's with the flawless sensors of yesteryear are no longer available for purchase. Not to mention every week it seems like there is a post here about someone's cable on their G400 breaking.

The best palm grip mouse currently on the market is the Zowie EC1 eVo. Why?

Pros:
- Flawless sensor
- Perfect for palm gripping.
- Really nice rubber texture that doesn't make my hand sweat like the rubber on my Mamba.
- Very lightweight
- Cable is really lightweight as well, since getting the mouse I am pleasantly surprised that it is not a braided cable (which adds weight/stiffness)
- Huge mousefeet, they glide really well on both my glass mousepad (Icemat) and my cloth mousepad (Qck+).
- Also comes with a spare pair of mouse feet.
- No annoying drivers (I'm looking at you Razer).
- "Notchy"/Heavy Scroll wheel - great for FPS games where you intend to only scroll the wheel a specific number of 'steps'.

Cons:
- "Notchy"/Heavy Scroll wheel - not so great for using internet browsers or games where you want to scroll in and out really quickly.
- Can't turn off the LED that illuminates the mousewheel.
- Tracking problems with multicolored mousepads. Just get a black mousepad like everyone else.

Swap out the H100 for the H100i.

And I guess the case is kind of personal preference, but to me that one is pretty damn ugly and overpriced...I'd look at something like Fractal R4 instead.

#12 Is this build good? in Hardware
PlatypusOdissiusChange the cooler for the H100i (if you decide to go watercooling) and change out the Deathadder 2013 for a Zowie EC1 eVo. It is a better mouse for a few reasons, if you want to know why I'll write it all out.
I'm actually getting an EC2 Evo, the deathadder is just there as a dummy because I didn't know how to add custom parts before

Oh okay nice...you'll love it.

#13 Building a PC in Hardware
YawnyI probably won't be building it until the end of summer when I've researched some more, also the 120hz is a bit pricy for me

Well, at least I tried to convince ya. I'm sure you'll enjoy whatever you end up choosing.

#10 Building a PC in Hardware
YawnyI don't have a monitor but I was thinking about this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236176 if it works that is

If you are in a position to be patient, meaning you don't need the monitor right away, then I would wait for the next sale on the Asus VG248QE, the 24" 144Hz monitor. It has come down to $240 before and it will again. In my eyes, if you're going to drop money on a monitor, you may as well pony up and buy the best, and that will last you the longest into the future. Leave the 60Hz for console kids man, 120Hz and above will make you drool.

#16 Keyboard in Hardware
mrgnomeI looked at all the switches. I like the idea of brown the in between of typing and gaming but is it going to hinder my strafing if i'm playing scout? Also whats the difference between the two contact types bump and the other one? Alot of people have recommended red and blue is blue better than red or what?

Thinking about this one:
http://www.amazon.com/CM-Storm-QuickFire-Rapid-Mechanical/dp/B007VDLVD4/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1369890843&sr=1-2&keywords=CM+Storm+QuickFire+Rapid+-+Compact+Mechanical+Gaming+Keyboard+with+CHERRY+MX+RED+Switches

Blue is garbage for gaming...I'd go red, haven't tried browns personally though.
