Transform your desktop into a broadcast studio with Yeticaster ~ featuring Yeti USB microphone, the Radius III shockmount, and the Compass boom arm. Yeti~s proprietary three-capsule technology enables cardioid, omni, bidirectional, and stereo pickup patterns that offer incredible flexibility, allowing you to record and stream in ways that would normally require multiple microphones. The Radius III vintage-style suspension mount isolates Yeti from noise, shock, and ambient vibration, while the Compass boom arm features internal springs and built-in cable management. Yeticaster is your secret weapon for broadcast-quality Twitch streams, podcasts and voice overs.

Excellent mic boom and excellent mic. I do prefer my Yeti X over the Blackout Yeti that comes bundled but it is a quality usb mic to be certain.

Not a bad monitor. Not really for gaming. 60hz refresh is the limit but a decent buget panel for daily tasks. Slight ghosting at times on pages and photos with lighter color pallets. Caught it on sale too.

The wired combo works well. Needed a spare set when working on family and friends computers so I could leave my setup intact at all times. Used as a daily driver for someone who is only browsing the web, checking email or watching videos, this combo will suit them fine.

THE must have kit for computer tear downs and builds. Quality tools and bits that are indispensable to me. I've had my kit for a couple of years and purchased this one as a Christmas present for my son who was super excited to receive it. He's an enthusiast too so I deemed it necessary for him to have his own set. The driver has a pretty strong magnet for bit retention and comes in handy when pulling screws or replcing them. Highly recommend over ANY competitors offerings.

My GO TO drive.
on May 3, 2021
Posted by: DMann
Verified Purchase:Yes
Quality drive as usual. I highly recommend the 860 EVO to anyone with an aging laptop that is still running an old school spinner, hhd. It'll be a game changer in the way of performance boost, especially if you have never used a machine with an ssd. If you have an available m.2 port then go for the 970 EVO. It's even faster than the SATA 860! I have purchased several of these over the passed few years and have had great luck with them. I also have several 970 EVO Plus and recently picked up three 870 EVO. Jury is still out on the 870s as I have not installed them yet and benchmarked them should get around to that soon.

Love it along with my new Z480 Aorus Master mobo. Haven't OC'd it yet but looks very promising on the silicon front. See picture of my first run of Cinebench R20 at stock speeds.

11th Gen Intel Core i5-11400 desktop processor optimized for gaming, creating, and productivity. Featuring PCIe Gen 4.0 support. Thermal solution included in the box. Compatible with 500 series & select 400 series chipset based motherboards. Refer to motherboard vendor for compatiblity details. 65W.
 

Will this work on the gigabyte h410m motherboard? Or is that only 10th gen?

10th gen only on H410M mobos as far as I know. They do have lga1200 sockets but I don't believe Gogabyte nor any other board partners are updating any 400 series boards to support 11th gen processors except for the Z490 platform.

Protect your Quest 2 in style, at home or on the move. This lightweight, portable solution efficiently and compactly store your headset, controllers, cables, power adapter and either Elite Strap. A dual-shell casing and shock absorbent interior molding give protection against bumps, rattles and drops. A graphite grey felt covering, debossed Meta Quest logo and slim profile present a sleek and premium feel. A recessed dual zipper guarantees easy access wherever you go without interrupting the Carrying Case~s stylish appearance.
 

Is there enough room in the case to hold the headset and the two handheld controllers?

Yes. It's a bit wonky the way that you have to fit the controllers. Place them in the case first then the headset. Also has a small cubby area in the front of the case that you can place the charger in and pack it with the entire setup. It is Elite Strap friendly too.

I don't see why not. It's a 2-1/2" form factor. You'll have to remove your original ssd from the laptop and install the Samsung in it's place.
