Been waiting a while for the latest and greatest from them... Love how they’ve ramped up the features and capabilities for folks that just want to tinker! :D

Nvida news: GeForce RTX 30 Series Performance To Accelerate With Resizable BAR Support So the short of it is this is pretty much a very similar tech that AMD currently provides with its 6000 series GPUs and Ryzen 3 processors. Nvidia is also getting in on this tech. It is available for RTX...

Just a phone camera pic (Samsung Galaxy S10e) - on the fly, through the glass of a truck passenger window doing ~60 MPH down a Northern Minnesota rural highway at around 9:23am a couple days ago... Pretty impressed with how it turned out. (This is a raw, untouched image... it was also snowing...

Basically $50 off the regular price of $199.99. This is a daily deal - it is only good for the next 9 hours or until it sells out. Not a bad price. Linky: https://www.amazon.com/Sabrent-Internal-Extreme-Performance-SB-ROCKET-NVMe4-1TB/dp/B07TLYWMYW

So I've been wanting to print this Settlers of Catan set off of Thingiverse for awhile now - finally took the plunge. Put my Prusa MK3S/MMU2S through its paces in that it involved a ton of mutlicolor filament prints. The bulk of the STL files are straight off of Thingiverse using the link...

OK, AAA VR titles are now really starting to gain some solid traction... and attention. Asgard's Wrath: Stormland: Boneworks:

Samsung is investing close to 11 billion dollars (yes billion) into OLED tech to produce Qdot OLED based TVs starting in 2021. It seems OLED tech is going to be around for quite a while and Micro LED tech is still too damn expensive to be feasible for consumer TV production. Now that all the...

I went ahead and ordered one... half the price of the MK3s. Will be nice to have a back-up for smaller jobs and something the kids can also play around with.

So I have a fairly nice audio setup on my PC... an Objective Headphone Amp + O2 DAC combo driving Sennheiser HD650 cans. I've had this setup for a number of years now and am very satisfied with it. For on the go audio, my goto IEMs have always been Ety ER4-Ps. Recently though, I decided to...

Upgraded to the Index, so selling my Vive, minus the Lighthouses. HMD is in excellent shape - like new condition. https://www.ebay.com/itm/VR-HTC-Vive-with-controllers-Deluxe-audio-headstrap-Sold-WITHOUT-Lighthouses/113817010440

Picked up a Quest so that my kids would leave my PC VR rig alone... well that worked great for about a day until the wife stole the Quest to start watching Netflix with it. Portability on the Quest is pretty awesome. Here she is eating a rice crispy treat and binge watching Netflix while...

This is definitely worth a watch - some next level stuff as far as VR interaction/interface use for melee/FPS/action type games. Can't wait for Brandon and his crew to release their full game. Nice to see folks pushing the boundaries in VR and making shit happen. Lots of little moments where...

Amazon Deal of the day - lowest I’ve ever seen it listed for. Very nice little EDC knife - picked up two as last minute Xmas gifts. https://www.amazon.com/Kershaw-Stainless-SpeedSafe-Reversible-Pocketclip/dp/B0009VC9Y0 EDIT: Deal now dead. Nearly half off was pretty sweet while it lasted.

Not the most reliable of news sites, but the leaked photo looks legit because it contains a black cat. :p https://wccftech.com/nvidia-rtx-titan-graphics-card-allegedly-pictured/ I bet he's gonna be in trouble with Nvidia for leaking the pic of his pussy.

EVGA now has a 2080Ti in their lineup listed for $999. Hopefully other vendors will follow suite. https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=11G-P4-2281-KR

While I don't necessarily NEED a multi-material print capability, I really would LIKE the ability to seamlessly print something with a dissolvable support material baked right into the print job. (Added colors/other materials would just be an added bonus.) This video convinced me that I NEED...

If you have a PC VR setup (Rift/Vive) and even remotely like music rhythm games, then this game is a no-brainer. Trust me, just get it. My arms are about to fall off... Who knew a light saber/fruit ninja/guitar hero mash-up could be so much fun?! The developers are also releasing a level...

I've been printing a good bit of ABS lately... But on the larger print jobs, was getting frustrated as I was getting some lifting/warping on my prints... even with the heated bed. That and the smell wasn't all that great either... Just the nature of the beast with ABS. So, I finally broke...

Found an interesting visual comparison of the graphics quality we can look forward to and the GPU rendering power that's going to be required for the Pimax 8K X going forward. Not my work (from the Pimax forums), but interesting nonetheless. Note that they are taking into account...

May as well start a first thread here! :) Picked up a Prusa i3 Mk2s kit earlier this year. Fun kit to build and learned a lot putting it together. Love the quality of the prints as well. It was my first foray into 3D printers. It now appears that there is new Prusa i3 MK3 about to...

For those of you that just recently picked up a Rift, be sure to check out this useful utility: Oculus Tray Tool It comes in very handy for automatically setting your USB ports up so that they don't go into power savings/sleep mode as well as setting up super-sampling profiles for individual...

Major update concerning Google Earth, which among other things now has full Oculus Touch controller support and a search capability built into the VR interface now. If you have a VR rig and haven't tried this yet, it is fantastic. Best of all, it's completely free. Available via Steam...

For those of you thinking of taking the VR plunge, Oculus just announced that they are cutting the price of the Rift + Touch contollers by $200. The Rift is now $499 instead of $599 and the touch controllers with the extra camera sensor is now only $99! A third sensor has also been cut from...

Gotta love VR! :D

Anyone have/own this 4K display? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01A3N60A2 Seriously considering it and want to know what folks that own one think about it... Thanks!

Well, I've gotten a few questions from folks on how I built this, so I thought I'd post a few more pics and share some info. Here's the completed Sim Chair: Not counting the HOTAS, wheel and pedals, it cost just under $500 to build. Got the leather seat from a local pick-n-pull junk yard out...

So... I'm interested in stepping up to a large screen 4k TV with at least a 60" screen. Would also like to be able to drive it with my PC at 4k (looking ahead to big Maxwell), but what I have now should also be able to handle driving it for gaming. Vizio seems to be a popular bang for the...

Cliff notes: Had 480 GTX SLI setup on water - upgraded to 780Ti SLI. Decided to waterblock them. Pics! Really happy with how it all turned out. EK blocks rock! 19C idle and 35C full load.

Could use some good subjective advice here from some of you that are running the latest and greatest gen GPU hardware out there! I've been saving up to do a GPU upgrade for quite some time now... currently still running a pair of heavily overclocked, water blocked SLI'ed GTX 480's. I do not...

Double post - delete.

In order to tweak my eVGA 8800GTX a bit (get it to run a bit cooler when overclocked) I decided to clean off the crappy stock thermal pads between it's heatsink and the card's GPU, memory & controller. Well, the RAM chips seems to use rather thick thermal pads that the GPU and controller do...

I've got an eVGA 680i and am using the optional mb heatpipe/chipset clip-on fan that came with it. Well, this fan is fairly loud. It's quite a bit louder than my case fans (P180 tricools on medium) and my Zalman 9700 cpu fan. (It's higher in pitch and has a pronounced whine) Has...
