  • I had one of the Alienware Alphas with the 860m and desktop haswell 4130t. You could swap in a 4160 but your big enemy would be heat.

    I swapped the steam OS for windows and threw in some cheap 240gb adata ssd. Ran it for years.

    Only problem was the cmos battery would fail every now and again and I’d have to solder a new one in because Dell……

    Anyways, I was in it ~$400 and it was a great htpc. Only real problem was haswell couldn’t decode 4k YouTube.

    The steam controller I still have, and it’s quirky. But I like it for the mouse function.








  • Take a look at Keychron. They have a lot to offer for around your budget and they go on sale frequently.

    Are you looking to be able to swap switches out? If so you will need to find hot swappable switches.

    If you care about backlighting they might be a little more expensive. But Keychron is reasonable. I’ve had their K2 for years and it has a better feel in it vs Corsair or Razer stuff in my opinion.





  • That and the “We don’t discuss wages.” remark. Screw that mentality. And from what Madison wrote, If promissory estoppel is a thing in Canada, then it sounds like she had a strong case. Especially if there was any paperwork.

    There’s tons of shit they could get LMG for. But it seems that they intentionally hired people that don’t know any better, and it’s no real fault of their own since they just are appearing to use predatory hiring processes. It’s ridiculous to think everyone young should know employment law.
