Reading all the comments with people saying they never changed their monitor's refresh rate tells me that microsoft really should implement a feature that automatically sets the highest possible refresh rate when plugging in a monitor. Or at least have a popup notification telling the user they can change their refresh rate with an "accept" button, so they don't accidentally skip the message.

Skill issue. If you didn't notice your monitor was in 60Hz, that just means you don't know what you're doing and is okay with 60Hz.

One upgrade that is super underrated is a headset with proper surround sound. I got my steel series arctis pro wireless headset after desiring one for 5-6 years and boy when I say it's worth it, I mean it. I went from barely being able to understand whether someone is upstairs or downstairs in some games to being able to keep track of the exact location of every sound naturally without moving my perspective an inch and it's mainly thanks to the software that comes with the headset and its ability to adjust whether the surround sound aspect is immersing you in the game or simply making extremely accurate and separate sound queues in addition to being able to adjust the distance at which sounds are heard from the user. I've had an issue where when I can hear the sounds accurately, they end up scaring me when they are too close, but with the adjustable settings that Steel Series provides with their software I was able to make the sounds far enough to not scare me, but accurate enough to tell exactly where every enemy is at all times without shifting my in-game view from where I'm aiming.

[@orionizaqt]

Good open back stereo headphones are better than any "gaming" headset with surround sound. The surround sound those have is fake. It's just software trying to emulate real surround sound and it's not that good really. Most, if not all competitive shooters have spatial audio built into the game/engine that works better than the software any gaming headsets use. Spatial audio in games is usually meant to be used with stereo headphones and might even break sounds with the fake surround sound that gaming headsets use. I used to have the same headset as you, but I'll never go back to them after switching to a pair of open back headphones. I head far more than I ever did with any gaming headset, and the sound quality is significantly better.

[@Stoat_Lord]

With anyone set on using a cloth mouse pad, something I'd recommend is a washable sticky roller (disposables work too but they become a money sink after a while). Cloth pads don't just collect dust, they grab on to it. Not to mention, as seen in the video above they grab hair too and it's rather difficult to wipe or even blow either off because of the material you're dealing with. For both however (especially glass pads), a major recommendation I would make is adopting a proper skincare regimen, especially if you have eczema and or dry flaky hands. Like seriously, if you're ever wondering where all the dust keeps coming from, it's you. So get used to thoroughly exfoliating and moisturizing your hands. Your mouse pad will thank you and your lady will love it 😉

[@Ilegator]

If only I knew all of this in 2015 when I played competitive Minecraft PvP 😂 Nice compilation!!

[@calmsh0t]

also be careful if you are mainly playing tac fps. here a glass mousepad might not be an upgrade... depending on your willingness to learn using it...

[@paleopasha]

I think there’s another big reason why people get pain other than just heavy mouse with slow pad. And that’s terrible ergonomics. I used to be guilty of this. I aimed with my wrist, while sitting too low and it fucked my wrist so bad. I had so much tension. Getting the right chair height, desk height and position makes aiming with your full arm possible and easy. That’s the biggest aspect to reducing pain or strain. Yes. Lightness is better in general but I think with good posture and form one could avoid pain easily despite a ‘heavy’ mouse. That said, aiming precisely would be harder and I’d recommend a light mouse AND changing seating position for someone experiencing pain.

[@diztinger]

that is very true. Good mouse shape and ergonimics >> weight. I've been using prime mini wireless for 6 months now and it is a huge step up from Haste wireless just because of the way it fits my hand, even though it's 10 grams heavier. Think about it, there's a reason why people used OG deathadder back in the days.

[@Isparky987]

Disagree with the light mouse comment, has become the rave in gaming but a proper arm position and desk height is much more impactful than a light mouse

[@hinchlikescake7592]

A high refresh rate monitor (OLED's now are meta) and a relatively powerful PC plus a lightweight mouse is all you need for competitive play. And at least 1K polling on mouse and keyboard. But I think finding the right mouse shape that fits ones own hands and playstyle is more of a larger factor. As if you can't physically aim and click accurately, no amount of hardware upgrades are going to help to such a degree of making you a better player. But yeah moving mice to lets say an old and dated & heavy wired/wireless mouse; to a 2023/2024 mouse, with a 3395/3950 sensor and at sub 59g one. Would be a massive upgrade I suspect.

I have been doing a ton of research and have looked at countless videos about glass mousepads, specifically the wallhack sp-04, and the one thing that is mostly consistent with a lot of people is how your arm or wrist sticks to the mousepad. The only exception to this rule is if you live in a colder climate or wear an arm sleeve, which I am not going to do either. Also the fact that I live in Florida and how it is usally very humid also makes it worse for me maybe I might buy a glasspad sometime in the future, but I decided to buy the artesian raiden mid and I am willing to maintain it weekly with washes.

Very based take on mousepad, despite many in here disagreeing. Glass mousepad is genuinely the biggest mousepad you can upgrade and truly is endgame IMO. It will make your aim better with time and far better than cloth mousepads when you get the hang of them. Also skates can make the mouse feel more controlled on glasspads if control is an issue, making the glass pads more usable to noobs.

G309 is kinda shit. M hose G3 seems to be the updated g305 u want. Or try atk blazing sky F1/F1 ultimate. Also pretty much the same shape and the F1 Ultimate is amazing, best mouse I ever owned ( g305 ->superlight-> F1 ULTIMATE).

Glass mousepad close to 144hz in upgrade worthiness. 'Diamond Lobby' sounds about right!

What brand is the mouse with the ninja star logo?

What mouse is the one thats next to you in the video????

What's everyone's opinion on the Orochi V2 as a gaming mouse? Good enough or no

[@AmirCosmo]

I watched the video till end, I have 60hz monitor and old mouse. I consider to upgrade my setup. Is it really need to buy monitor first rather than mouse? If I buy mouse first, is that bad move? (g pro x superlight 2 but 60hz monitor???)

[@yeetyeetyeet1967]

only buy the better monitor if you can actually hit more fps than the monitors hz

[@omegaPhix]

no need for GPX. There are budget mice with 99% of the performance for 50 bucks

[@miclwastaken]

in my opinion the sensor matters to me, I had a superlight and went to a viper v2 pro which seemed to have a way nicer sensor, then from that to an op1 8k which seemed to be another really good jump. also binding my usb hub and mouse to a non 0 cpu core made it feel much nicer especially on high polling rate.

[@greippuli9166]

I have the gpx and op1 8k and cannot tell a single difference between the sensors. From my experience, it's actually the shape that makes a mouse feel responsive or not.

[@sjejqnrof98vi]

​@@greippuli9166 if you cant notice the difference then its a you problem

@@greippuli9166 I don't think it's the shape that is different

Currently rocking a "Endgame gear cordura pad" with glass skates. For the moment, it's probably the best combo of pad+skates I tried so far! Try it in one of your videos if you can!!! :)

[@benjaminmichaels1759]

Brother when u were a pro these mice werent that light yet, were they?

[@kiyoponnn]

i only agree about getting a good high refresh rate monitor they rest don't matter at all

[@kreestoph]

Highly reccomend the hyperx pulsefire haste, better than the superlight at 1/4 the price

[@aqwek]

I've always been stubborn about my mouse. I've been using a Bloody A70 for years, ever since I got into the Minecraft high cps scene. I just don't want to lose drag clicking, or destroy a LOGITECH mouse by trying to drag click on it. The only thing I hate about the new Wooting 60HE and others, as that none are ortholinear.

[@Zaceyhf]

Hey diamond just wondering which fnatic pad you’re using as I got both the new max pads and enjoy both a lot and can’t decide which one is best for me.

[@DiamondLobbyReviews]

Focus I think

[@Zaceyhf]

@@DiamondLobbyReviews I really like the focus but if I want more speed I switch out to either the dash 2 or artisan raiden.

[@DiamondLobbyReviews]

i have the first dash and its still one of my favourites

[@Zaceyhf]

@@DiamondLobbyReviews I have the first dash aswell it was one of my favourite pads but not long after I got it and started using it they dropped the new versions so I wanted to try that one then.

[@samue2012]

will we have val champion mouse video soon？😊

[@Germanjeff_444]

What do you th Ink I should upgrade my mouse Logitech g305 or my keyboard Corsair k70 pro min

[@houssamalucad753]

I would say the G305. Had one, great sensor, but size and shape and feet and weight(even with lithium battery) were all much worse than any newer mouse. You can either get a better mouse from a chinese brand for the same price, or pay a bit more for one from a well known brand (Razer, Pulsar...)

[@diztinger]

definitely the mouse

[@tinoletexier7194]

what mic do you use?

[@riichobamin7612]

I game (mostly Warzone) on my laptop: Lenovo Legion 5i with an i7 12700H and a RTX3070ti@140 Watts (equivalent to a desktop RTX3060ti). My laptop has a 15.6 inch, 1440p, 165 Hz monitor. I use a Razer Deathadder V2 and a Redragon K617 Fizz. So, should I aim for a 27 inch 1440p monitor next ? I mean will gling from 15.6 inch to a 27 inch actually increase my performance in games like Warzone ?

[@69TuggSpeedman69]

My personal opinion is that it's better to look for 23.8" or 24" 1440p monitor, that's lots crispier than 27" More to your question, yes, bigger monitor increased my skill, but slightly

[@riichobamin7612]

@@69TuggSpeedman69 thanks ! Unfortunately, here in India, I cannot find 1440p screens smaller than 27" 😭🥲

[@vshipz]

so is the keychron q1he better than the wooting?

[@Remster624]

the wooting performs better, but the keychron has much better build quality

[@Selarium]

Are there any mouse skates worth considering for the Viper V3 Pro? Or is the difference too marginal?

[@DiamondLobbyReviews]

smaller feet will make it feel a lot faster. bigger feet = more friction. so dot skates would be great if you want that

[@HOLY_FRIJOLES]

[@AIMLESS-NAMELESS]

this is decent advice but i feel we should see actualy gameplay that you are proud of. to see how much we can weigh your opinion. this is why i like optimum so much. he is actually fucking insanely good AND makes good reviews

[@DuckyVanya]

5:53 is disgusting! But I think this is one of the best videos you have made. Very simple and everything is pretty much spot on. I think the glass vs cloth might be a bit more nuanced than you say, but I switched to glass for exactly the reasons you said. Super consistent and so easy to clean.

[@tActivePH]

why glass mousepad and not an artisan for example?
