I have mx blues and they feel amazing. No chance they'll somehow make you better at tf2 but they're really fun to type on. I imagine the reds could be a small improvement because of the increased responsiveness, but it's nothing to write home about lol

Can you view any servers in the server browser, or if you try to look at a friend's game info through steam? If you can't do either of those (no server's showing up, just shows the IP of friend on steam instead of score and name of server etc.) then you're probably not sending/receiving UDP packets. The other thing I can think of is that the ports for tf2 (27015 usually) aren't open for your router.
Have you tried restarting your router?

pls continue making youtube videos <3

I have the msi version of it but in the past i've really liked the EVGA's service as people have mentioned. Probably worth it just for that. The dual fan cooling is really nice over the reference cards. Doubt there's much of a performance difference between any of them though, aside to overclocking

I've been playing the fallout series recently which is really fun

For some reason my medibeam dissapears after a couple seconds of healing somebody. Is that because i'm in dx8 or some other config? I usually use the viewmodel_fov 0 so the beam isnt there but when i do have it on it's annoying.
edit thanks dude

got my quickfire tk at that price when it was on sale, good deal. :)

I've had my monitor for a few months now and played at 144hz for the first bit (maybe a month or 3 weeks before switching). Both are very good, but I personally think that lightboost is a lot better. The extra 24 frames don't really help that much for tracking, but the eliminated motion blur is a big improvement for me at least.
It's impossible to argue that 120hz is more responsive, because of course you are getting 24 less frames each second than 144hz. I'm just saying that its a better trade off to lose those few extra frames for the clarity that lightboost gives. Motion is going to look smoother with the blurring and more frames that 144 gives, obviously, so you could argue that tracking is theoretically easier. It's basically just responsiveness vs clarity
144 of this per second

or 120 of this per second and 4ms input lag

do you actually have one? There is a noticable difference in smoothness with 120 to 144, but its not nearly as noticable as lightboost imo. everything is so much clearer

danke

lightboost is way better than 144

I've installed srcdemo for rendering demos and it works well, but I can't figure out how to make it render only part of the demo. My current workflow is just open lawena or another movie config, set the framerate and go to the tick and record and wait 30 mins for it to finish. I have to stop it at the right time though so it doesn't record the whole match and only the one part that I want.
Is there a way to save only a specific part of the demo to a smooth or something, so that it will only record that certain number of ticks and then end the movie? It'd be really helpful if there were a way to automate this or make it easier at least. Watching the game render for 30 mins gets kind of tedious.
fixed it already look at the last post
