It's still one screen. Having one screen instead of two is more limiting, it's great to have two seperate desktops and pretty much mandatory to have them when doing something like playing a game but leaving hardware stats / teamspeak / skype etc up on-screen somewhere. Most of my general 2-screen usage would actually be quite awkward on an ultrawide

I have a Roccat Kone [+], have had it for a while now and it is developing the doubleclick issue (Where it sometimes randomly doubleclicks when you only want to click once). Here is what i have tried so far: Oil on the switch: Worked for abou 3-4 days, then back to exactly as bad as before Tape a bit of paper onto the switch: Worked well for two weeks, then started to become gradually worse and worse again. Then i taped a bit more paper onto it, fixing it for another few weeks. Now i am down to 3 strips of paper, which is once again working, but i am starting to get double clicks again. I know i could just buy another mouse, but good gaming mice are kind of expensive, and the mouse is working really well except for the double click issue. Are there other fixes that i have not tried yet that might work? Is there something better than paper to put on top of the switch? Is it possible to get those switches on their own and replace them? If yes, what are they called and where might one find them? | ||

From my research so far the problem appears to be quite common in these mice, and is based on the fact that the switches go weird after a few hundred thousand clicks or so. Which then makes them trigger twice sometimes. The most common fixes i found on the internet are those two i mentioned before, and they do work, but not exceedingly well. Now, i was thinking that maybe just replacing the faulty switch would solve the problem, but i have no idea where one would get one of those. I guess another way would be at a software level to have a (really small) minimum time between two registered clicks, but i can not find any setting like that in my mouse drivers, and i have no idea how i would go about something like that in some other way. | ||

I can change the doubleclick speed in my mouse drivers, if that is what you mean, but that does not have any effect whatsoever on the problem. firmware is seperate from drivers, it's common for mice to have several firmware versions with different performance stats (for example one might have lower lift off distance but less max tracking speed. Another could have faster mouse button click latency, but have much higher risk of having double click issue. If you don't have different firmwares available for your mouse though, that's not really an option for you | ||

I have no idea what the problem is. I've unplugged every possible periphery except for the CPU and it hasn't made a difference. I think the issue might be power supply unit related, simply because it arose after I tried installing a power hungry graphics card that failed to install (again for reasons I couldn't figure out). Anyone got any ideas? | ||

Probably, since minimum FPS unless you have an awful GPU is decided by the performance of 1-2 CPU cores. It might not neccesarily be the best buy though | ||

That's kinda expensive for what it is - the power limited versions of the lowest end parts that you can really buy. this is a desktop With mobile equivelant / power-limited parts, it's closer to laptop parts than desktop ones@Bloody What OS and hardware are you using? You might have an issue with DPC latency | ||

Specs are as follows: Asus p67 i7-2600k@4.3 16gb hyperx Ram The motherboard will default to 1,5 volts for the ram, which means it will also downclock them by default from the 2400mhz they're capable of. I changed the voltage to the 1,65 that's required to run them at higher clocks and had been running them at 2133mhz for months without running into any bumps. Another boot later and it worked fine. So I'm just curious, what causes this and is it of any concern? | ||

edit: Using my netbook I was able to get the map reinstallation to complete, but the unit still complains it doesn't have map data. I think Garmin really dropped the ball on this. | ||

On the other hand, I haven't updated mine since before WoL was in beta, and aside from a few times it tried to get me to drive through a fence, it's been okay on the major roads. | ||
