Spec drop down list, what do you think of adding Keyboard + Mouse?

Phusius · Oct 25, 2012, 02:05 PM

I think most people here love the spec drop down list to quickly check what people are using for hardware, and maybe I am alone on this, but I love to see what people you use for Keyboard and Mouse as well. I mean come on, what does the legendary erocker use as a mouse, or the legendary W1zzard? I think this would be a cool feature.

If you support it post your thoughts here and help get this done.

keyboard Microsoft wired keyboard 600
mouse Microsoft wireless mobile mouse 3000

But would you like this feature added to the spec drop down list Captain?

yes is a part on the system xd

Sadasius · Oct 25, 2012, 03:05 PM

I don't find it is that important. I use the Steelseries SHIFT keyboard and mouse. My mouse is the nice Cata WoW mouse and the keyboard is interchangeable for whatever game I am playing if I have the keyboard for that game. Such as WoW, Starcraft II, etc. I just don't find them that important as opposed to an OC'd CPU, RAM etc.

Phusius · Oct 25, 2012, 03:20 PM

Sada, it is not important at all to be quite honest. I just think it would be a neat feature and re-energize people to start using the spec drop down menu more and up date it.

I feel it is one of the hidden gems that separate TPU from other forums. It gives us a sense of unification... perhaps I am just schizo or something, I don't know.

Definitely agree there. I love that feature and admit being guilty of not updating it from time to time.

AlienIsGOD · Oct 25, 2012, 03:39 PM

i def support this

i have my mouse and keyboard listed in my benchmarks tab >_<

trickson · Oct 25, 2012, 03:42 PM

G15 key boars and Logitech laser mouse.
I do not think a drop down menu is needed for this though.

MT Alex · Oct 25, 2012, 03:43 PM

I don't like the idea, not only because of my ambivalence but because I think it's inconsequential. Save W1zz's efforts for something worthwhile.

I cannot add one in this section, my guess is you need to contact erocker and see if he can help out.

yes the poll must be made by the OP at the time of the posting. You may be able to add one after, but only before the second post is made.

m1dg3t · Oct 25, 2012, 08:21 PM

I think we can do without, some drop downs are already massive and take up a tonne of space. The bandwith could be better used i think...

Fair enough, I'll just keep putting it in Benchmark space like Alien and me already do.

LOL its 2012, bandwidth really isnt a problem :P

Also the benchmark section could be changed over to what is being suggested. noone ever posts results in that area anyhow, they use the thread for the benchmark usually instead.

I concur.

Change the benchmark section to "Other Info & Specs not included in the Above"

Or, something shorter.

but give the actual area to write stuff the same or more space then is provided for the rest of the columns.

I disagree, W1zzard, erocker, and other Admins are very open to suggestions actually, even W1zzard recommended I make this topic.
