    Smile Hey everyone!

    Hi all,

    Matt here. I work in IT and am a keen gamer. Planning a new Broadwell-K build at some point in 2015 but am in the market for a new gaming keyboard and mouse before that.

    Thought i'd make myself at home here. Seems like a decent place to settle!

    Take it easy people.

    Matt

    Hi Matt

    Re: Hey everyone!

    Cheers jim!

    I have managed to last a good 4 years with this build which isn't bad going for me.

    Would like more overclocking headroom with a K CPU next with 16Gb of RAM and maybe dual graphics. Should be a good year hardware wise!

    Keyboard - Corsair K70 RGB is an amazing bit of kit.

    Good call! I'm leaning towards the K70 RGB as it happens. Waiting until stock comes in. Hopefully early 2015!

    As it happens, that's what I went for as well - pricey, for sure, but it's fantastic.

    Re: Hey everyone!

    Pricey indeed. Looking about £220 for the K70 RGB, Corsair Sabre Laser RGB Mouse and a smallish gaming pad also from Corsair.

    Re: Hey everyone!

    If you posting behaviour is such that you are thought to be only spamming for some of the HEXUS features, such as the Scan free shipping offers, the posts may be deleted and/or your post count reset. In extreme cases we may suspend an account or ban the account completely.

    The criteria is for useful posts. For example one liners recommending something without justification isn't very helpful, neither are multiple posts in the what have you read/played/watched type threads.

    Thanks for letting me know. So thanking is out of the question I guess.
    I honestly made post with useful info with no intention of spamming. I admit I joined because of Scan offer, but what would make me join this forum when I already have active accounts with reputable stats on other forums? Once joined, I would have stayed.

    Re: Hey everyone!

    You are welcome to stay anyway, but we get too many joining up, spamming their way to 20 posts, then never to be seen again.

    However, a comment like "Sounds interesting" or "nice thread" in an old thread does not really add much to it

    And neither does reviving a two year old thread, unless you were adding something substantial to it...

    However, I will go back through your posts and credit the useful ones back to your post count.

    Hey Jace007. Will bear that in mind cheers! Am not decided just yet. My PS4 purchase at Xmas has pushed back my gaming keyboard and mouse plans a little! It'll happen though.
