Recommended Accessories M14x

I am planning on getting a Shammymac for the screen as well as some sort of sleeve that isn't too bulky (just something that can be slipped into my backpack, was thinking maybe like a 15" incase, I have a $50 Bestbuy card and $100 amazon card). I was wondering if you guys have any suggestions for useful accessories and a sleeve that you guys would recommend?

 

Duno if you needa mouse but ive recently bought a Roccat Kova[+], great mouse loads of features ) ROCCAT STUDIOS V3.0 - PRODUCTS » Gaming Mice » ROCCAT Kova[+]) and flashy lights

 

I probably will get one, however I couldn't find a price on that and where do you buy it? I imagine its a bit out of my price range for just a mouse

 

That thing looks like it belongs with an Alienware.

Edit: I wanted one but it looks like they only do Europe. I guess they're the Razer equivalent over there.

 

still looking for suggestions

 

well if your looking for a mouse i would get the razer orochi. Its has the same soft touch materiel on top and its wireless...

Also maybe consider getting a SSD from amazon ?

and if you get a small ssd you can put your other hard drive in your optical drive using an optical drive caddy

and for when you occasionally want to use a disk drive get a nice bluray external optical drive from amazon ( you can get a lot faster ones than whats inside the m14x and you can get one to play bluerays )

Wireless HD box maybe ?

TV usb stick so you can watch tv on your laptop ?

External HDD for storing films and games so it doesn't slow your laptop down when you dont need the files ( WD passport AV i have and its great ! i also plug mine straight into my tv and play films from it )

hope this helps

 

im a very big logitech fan and before this gets locked down and pointed to the "accessories" forum i will let you know the g930 and g9x is a perfect fit for this lappy

 

well if your looking for a mouse i would get the razer orochi. Its has the same soft touch materiel on top and its wireless...

Also maybe consider getting a SSD from amazon ? Very tempting, how much for just a minimal SSD, I can't spend like $200 on one right now..

and if you get a small ssd you can put your other hard drive in your optical drive using an optical drive caddy I would like to do this but I don't know how to do that or how difficult it is, but I would like to do that

and for when you occasionally want to use a disk drive get a nice bluray external optical drive from amazon ( you can get a lot faster ones than whats inside the m14x and you can get one to play bluerays ) How much is it for a decent external bluray optical drive?

Wireless HD box maybe ?

TV usb stick so you can watch tv on your laptop ?

I have a very nice wireless 500gb seagate one I just got so I have that covered
hope this helps

 

you'll be able to get a 60-64gb SSD for less than 200 easily. check newegg frequently for shell shocker deals.

titangod put up a tutorial for how to do the optical caddy thing..it looks pretty simple!

bluray drive, not sure...but that's what amazon's for

 

Agreed, g9x is probably one of the best mouse out there for normal use and RTS gaming.

 

okay well I will look into getting a smaller ssd and then putting that in place of the harddrive and moving the harddrive to the optical....then get a optical drive...I will definitely look into it, as well as the g9x mouse

 

I am not real familiar with SSD's, what would you guys recommend for around $100-$150

 

Take a look at this article:

SSD Linky

 

Crucial M4 64 gb would be a good one, don't know if thats enough space for me or not, but I also saw a Kingston 94GB for like $140, I'm still unsure about an SSD since they are so expensive and I would only be able to get a smaller one

 

Yes, it's one of those "You've got to pay in order to play" things. Costs are still a little high, but I've made the transition to SSD and keep everything on externals. Of course, I had to scrape together the $$ to get the 128GB version of Crucial's C300 SSD.

 

Maybe I will wait on that for a little bit but I will get the g9x mouse the shammymac...anything else? What size sad should I save up for?

 

any razer mouse, the black and blue lighting goes good with the laptop. thats how i'm doing it.

 

Is the Alienware mouse any good / worth the price?

 

I haven't used it, but looking at the specs/reviews/price...no. If you want the cool lighting stuff I'd recommend a Razer or Roccat mouse over the Alienware.

 

Still looking for suggestions...so fAr going with the shammymac and the g9x mouse or razor...ssd probably isn't really worth it unless I get 128 gb or so

 

I might just take the hit and get the 128gb m4

 

I have this mouse and it works great! Got it for 50 bucks so even better. I guess its a remake of the G9. Love the lighting, looks great with the keyboard too.

 

Where do you live? I got mine for £40, which is better price than some of the razer ones. ROCCAT Kova+ Gaming Mouse - Black buy online | Currys and has had great reviews. But if you want a razer then the death adder looks great.

 

I like the g9x mouse but I want wireless any suggestions?

 

Razer orochi, enough said

Best wireless gaming performance I think in sensitivity and can be wired just by plugging the wire back in the front

 

Found that last night and thats what I am planning on getting

 

As much as I like my G9X, I've always wanted to combine a RAT mouse with the M14X since it has that futuristic feel, but all the reviews about the RAT's lifespan only being 6 months was a big turn off from actually buying one

 

i got a RAT9 + RAT7 x 2 they are both doing great ill tell you when my RAT7 die on me..... and no one can prove that then RAT 9 or 7 died in 6 month .. i dont think they are out for that long yet.. haha

 

I still have my VX Nano, and it does what I need it to do.
