    [Dead] Newegg ZIP Pay 16% off Several Items (7900XTX for $789)

    I received the PNY 4070ti Super. Free shipping, two days. Replacing a 980ti. I was going back and forth between the 70ti Super and the 80 Super. This deal made the decision for me. Its close to what I paid for the 980ti when it came out.

    Zotac GAMING Trinity or 4080 SUPER ASUS PROART

    Due to my case size I have to use a shorter card. I have only found the ASUS Pro ART OC and the Zotac Gaming Trinity available in my area. The Asus is roughly $120 more. They are short enough, I am limited to 320 mm in the HAF 932. I was wondering about the 120 price difference. I can't...

    T-Mobile offering 1 year free AAA membership

    Long time customer with my insurance company. We had tow insurance for years, I think we used it twice when a vehicle at the house wasn't safe to drive to the mechanic. This year the broker let us know the company we insure with was dropping tow service and that others in my area had done the...

    Like the 5800x3d will these also give the message, "This PC does not currently meet the minimum requirements to run Windows 11"?

    Does my monitor dictate which brand of card is better for me?

    Thank you for the responses. I updated my sig to reflect current set up, 5800x3d. I do like the performance reviews of the 7800xt and price is definitely nicer than 4070ti I've been considering. I am just gaming with this. I will stay at 1440p. I'll use it with a Quest 2 now and and update...

    Does my monitor dictate which brand of card is better for me?

    I am looking to buy a new graphics card. Thinking about the $800 range. Have been reading reviews. I am coming from 980ti. Is it advisable to stay with NVIDIA because I am using a Viewsonic XG270QG? It is one of those G-SYNC ULTIMATE displays.

    Bias - BS - Lies - News - Social Media

    If you've been alive long enough you'd realize the "no longer" in your statement is wrong. We never did. Bias in the news is not a new thing that we just discovered. Walter Cronkite had an agenda too and was every bit as dangerous then as Fake News is today.

    Oculus Rift Owners Thread

    Not that this helps you in any way just more for general knowledge to help people make decisions on the product. I had an issue with the Rift several months ago. Rift stopped working. I had a black screen with headset on. If I click Oculus icon from desktop I get an "Error Can't Reach Oculus...

    Anyone else here using VR for other stuff besides gaming?

    I use it at home for fun but used at work first and are expanding. We have several of these we send to our booth at dental trade shows around the US. I create an interior of a dental practice based on the space the doctor is looking at. Normally we provide 2D and 3D rendering using Revit and...

    Rift now that controllers are out? or Vive?

    Got my Rift controllers yesterday, haven't had a chance to try them. My company is using both Rift and Vive for product demo. We were liking FOV on Rift but touch controls on Vive so I am very interested if the addition of controllers will push Rift ahead of Vive for our purposes

    What kind of longevity do you think VR has?

    I don't know. When I think about how big of a deal VR was at the last AutoDesk University conf. and how much money and effort my company is putting into it (not for video gaming), I think it is here to stay. Our customers and sales team absolutely love it. We have brought it into our booth...

    Just remember it's a dry heat. Well except that it rained a little yesterday out in my area of town. Could mean a bit of humidity today which would be excruciating. I can't believe I used to work outside in this furnace. I'm a wimp now. I've been working from home the last 12 years so I...

    So, be honest, does the resolution bother you?

    Just got the Rift consumer version, tried it out for a couple of hours last night. Yes, the resolution bothers me. However I was so amazed by what it is and what it can be I nearly cried.

    Torn between 3 motherboards

    I am still liking that Gigabyte 7 you recommended. I think I've got about another week or two to make a decision. I've really being pouring through the reviews. Two boards that I'd also like to compare to the Gigabyte 7 but can't find reviews on are the Asus z170 Premium and the Asus Hero...

    Torn between 3 motherboards

    I was checking out the Gigabyte G1. It looks nice. Same Pex8747 chip the Asus WS board has, so that same GPU issue. Looks like Gaming 7 does not. Do either of you run a M.2 drive? Any heat problems?

    Torn between 3 motherboards

    I was leaning towards the Asus WS because it has 12K solid capacitors. The Deluxe has 5K solid capicitors. I haven't been able to find out what the capacitors are rated on the Premium board. Does anyone know? I tend to run my computer 24/7 so the higher quality parts was a draw for me...

    New build for Rift, Revit and gaming. Will put in 6700K with either 16 or 32gb high speed ram. I am not familiar with over clocking but probably will try it, not trying for extreme clock. I won't have more than 1 high end GPU at a time. I may do SLI in the future but right now I'm not too...
