All my life every time the power would go out while I was in the middle of working on something, I would say. "I really need to get an uninterruptible power supply." And then I would forget about it until the next time the power went out.
Well. I finally did it and got a UPS!
I like it so far.. Now I just need to wait for a thunderstorm to knock out the power so I can see how well it performs.

Started experiencing the dreaded double click issue with my Logitech G 502 Hero. So while I await my warranty claim I decided to buy a G604 Lightspeed Wireless. This is the first wireless gaming mouse I have ever had and I gotta say it feels really nice to be wireless! I don't notice any lag at all.
Hopefully the switches on this are better than on the G502.

Idk how you guys contact logi service centers. I recently had an issue with the mouse and contacted them through mail, All they told me is to walk-in to nearby service center and its 3 hours away from my home.
Though i heard positive things about their service but i cant do anything in this pandemic :S —

Thanks for the input. I've thought about going wireless but I worry about lag too —

I am so incredibly excited about this. So much of game development time is spent just trying to optimize assets. A constant balancing act between making it look good at the desired framerate.
If UE5 does all they claim, games are going to start looking so amazing and with far less development time.

Update on my new build:
I was getting a ton of BSOD crashes when watching videos, and also weird mouse stuttering and lag. I updated my BIOS (which honestly I should have done first) and that did not seem to help. A bit of searching around on the AMD subreddit and I found some people say with the Radeon 5700XT it helps to disable HDCP support for your monitors. (HDCP is an anti-piracy thing for blu-ray, streaming services, etc. )
This is done in the Radeon settings > Display > Specs >… See More

Seems to have mostly solved the problem. Though I am still getting some occasional lag. But no more crashes yet. I am assuming things will get better after more driver updates.

I tried doing that to see if it would help fix my Blu-ray player issue. Core 4 on my CPU jumped from 45c idle to 95c idle. HAHAHAH! So, I re-enabled it. (I don't have a 5700xt, but been having a few issues with playback on the player) —
