It needs to be a good quality trusting brand, because I will be using it to stream video games on Twitch, post YouTube vids, and I'm a bit of a shot-caller for my League of Legends team. I'm looking for a microphone attaching very loosely to my ear, like an earbud, or at most only conceals one of my two ears. I don't want a speaker headset -- I want a headset with a mic!

My computer environment is fairly far from my tower case, so the cable needs to be very long (8 ft+). My efforts in finding such a cable length are proving elusive. I'm open to attempting a wireless mic, but I'm concerned a wireless mic may compromise my audio quality -- I can't have audio interference (can anyone debunk this? What are the dangers of wireless vs. wired mics?).

Any products that might fit this description?

I mentioned at the end that I was caring, yet I got Jinx, who specifically mentions her box of care is empty, and she definitely is NOT caring, so I don't get it.

This is the keyboard I have now. Is it "mechanical?"

Should I be upgrading this if I want twitchy reflexes for FPS online gaming? I've owned by Logitech K120 for a while now. Nowadays, you can get it for $15.49 at Amazon, so I'm concerned it's outdated. Is it?

I did the chkdsk on the drive, but it reported no bad sectors and didn't fix anything that I can tell.

I've now installed Hearthstone to the C: and sure enough it loads great, so yea the E: drive is definitely the culprit. Well, I guess that settles it then. I recently acquired an SSD hard drive which I'll be replacing the E: drive with. My biggest concern was isolating which hard drive was the culprit, so I feel better now knowing what to remove. Thanks, Felipe.

1.) I believe it's only on Hearthstone, although I have noticed when I try to run League of Legends, the network login will timeout the first time and I have to keep logging in until the game lets me on. It's been like this for weeks. I think maybe the client is mistaking my long HDD load time as a network error, so it's timing me out and saying I can't connect to the server.

2.) I will try this now and report back.

You shouldn't have to play Hearthstone to know my issue. I'm just using it as an example. I have two drives:

C: My operating system and misc files.

E: All my games.

I have Hearthstone installed to the E drive. When I launch the game, it's fine, until I load my decks or start a match. It then takes 3+ mins to load. I can hear one of my drives working insanely hard. This seems odd to me, considering Hearthstone is not technically demanding. Both of my drives have plenty of HD space (both ~100 GB free out of ~590 GB total). Once this 3+ minute load phase is complete, I never have to worry, until I quit Hearthstone and re-launch it.

-----------

Two questions:

1.) Which drive is the culprit, do you think? The E drive storing the games, or is the game somehow passing commands through my C drive?

2.) How do I fix it, if I can? Should I replace the HDD? Reformat? I already tried reinstalling and defrag, which did nothing.

I have a typical 3.5" spin drive. Unfortunately, all the internal SSD drives I'm seeing online are sized 2.5", so they may be too small to fit. The one I'm thinking of purchasing is this Samsung one:

My tower case is a Cooler Master with rails to keep my current older drives secure. The rails look like this:

^ Can I fit an SSD into one of these rails in place of an old drive? What's the trick or what do I need to get myself started on internal SSD drives, if anything?

Yup, buying it.

Same here. Originally, I thought it was an incompatible font issue, because I'm a graphic designer and have a ton of fonts installed, but if they're symbols/images, then that's unlikely. I too use Firefox.

Will bookmark this page for updates.

I know this game takes place several years after the last game, but do you think it'd be alright to jump into this one?
