    Corsair VOID PRO or STEELSERIES Siberia 350 ? (Headsets)

    I personally have the Void and I love it. Sound is subjective though and the only real way to test it is to try it. If you liked the Vengeance 1500, then you will probably like the Void just as well. I do believe the Void also has slightly better build quality.

    Budget Gaming Headphones w/ great [surround] sound

    You won't really find true surround in a headset under $100. I personally have the Corsair Void and it's better than most for directional sound, considering it also emulates 7.1, but it won't even come close to real 7.1. My recommendation is Corsair Void for your budget, but there are better...

    Old Desktop still useful for rendering video?

    I mean, it still COULD do rendering, it's just going to take an abominable amount of time. Unless you're really killing for cash, it would be better to spend <$500 to get a budget rendering PC with one of the new Ryzen APUs, and it would be significantly better.

    Performance difference due to clock speed difference on the GTX 1050 and 1050ti laptops.

    The clocks aren't as big of a factor as the GPU itself. The 1050ti is just a much better GPU than the 1050.

    How much RAM is needed with Intel i5 4210M for smooth performance?

    8GB should be fine but ideally you'd want 16. I don't think you'd run into any issues with 8 if you're trying to save money though.

    Sound not working on Corsair Void

    I recently did some cable management in my case just to tidy up, and after I booted, I found that I have no sound whatsoever. No playback through my headset, no sound through the microphone, and strangely all of the applications that would show in volume mixer disappeared. I initially suspected...

    Laptop compromise decision.

    Either one can probably be upgraded, whether it be to an SSD or a new stick of RAM. It also isn't stated what processor specifically it is, since Core i7 has a VAST range of CPUs, especially taking mobile CPUs into account. I would take the one with the SSD for less headache. It's probably...

    Worried about ordering the predator helios 300. Help!

    Don't worry about it. You see negative reviews a lot more because people will go out of their way to make a negative review rather than a positive one. Laptop cooling is the only real concern but that's just how laptops are. Acer makes good stuff, just buy it. If it does come faulty you can RMA...

    Might wanna try re-installing the game, and if that doesn't work try re-installing graphics drivers.

    Check CPU/GPU/RAM/Disk usage during gaming. Also check temperatures. That will usually be the biggest tell of what's going on.
