Egg has some asus Z690 boards in stock right now: https://www.newegg.com/asus-rog-strix-z690-e-gaming-wifi/p/13-119-512
I think the 690-E is a good sweet spot for price / performance if you dont need the ports on the hero.
Looks like the Apex is in stock if you want to blow $720
The only thing they didnt compromise on was the resolution and optics.
Everyone knows the reverb is a sim headset, the G2 is no different. It is the best sim headset. They have improved the tracking a bit by adding cameras, they have improved the controllers a bit. But make no mistake, they...
because they have a crappy computer / sold their old components and are building a new PC for cyberpunk. No one wants to be waiting to play cyberpunk while all their friends are saying how great it is.

How is it a sidegrade? I'm just trying to squeeze a few more FPS out of my cpu bound games and from what I can see reviews are saying even an "old" 9900k would do that for me.
Upon further digging, it seems like the sidegrade would be going from a 9900k to a 10700k.
That said the article in...
Coming from a i7-7700K thats been rock solid at 5ghz for a couple years now, is this going to be "the" processor(s) to get for single threaded performance in 2020? I'm excited to bump my 24/7 speed up 300-500mhz to get more FPS. Most of the games I play are unoptomized (like VR DCS world, or...
The most crisp in the center, but in that same video when you watch the cars passing by the driver, it looks like the index has a crisper FOV all around even if its not as clear as the reverb in the center.
Hard pass on the reverb at the moment with all the issues people are reporting. Might...
Not sure the ultra high res is going to be enough to make up for whats looking like one of the most polished VR experiences to date in Valves court.
DCS is one of my focus titles, but I think I will be content with not having the highest res in DCS (for an iteration, until the next wave of...
Is the socket location standardized? I can try to remount it, I'm almost sure this was the only way to clear other obstructions (ram, PSU or case, cant remember).
I use the PC daily for work and I'd like to minimize downtime... if it doesn't fit is there a smaller AIO cooler these days that...
I have a M1 build thats been solid for ~3 years now, but now I want to add a GPU for faster rendering.
I have a ASUS 1080ti strix in my gaming rig and I could use this as an excuse to upgrade that soon, but looking in the M1 it doenst look like any card would fit?
When I installed the DarkRock...
It also happens on the AE-5, but luckily it hasnt hit me yet (*knock on microchips*).
Instead I have a bug where I have to switch my settings from headphones to speakers and back everytime I turn on my computer.

What you...
Works just as well to hang the cord behind your monitor using a ziptie, sticky tape or whatever else you can rig up. If your desk faces a wall its not visible to anyone either so it can look like ass and no one will know.
I have a ZXR but it disappears from device manager every once in a while... I wonder if this would be a downgrade. It would be nice to have a card that always works.
Think they will make a more expensive version of this with a daughter card like the ZXR?
The new high end mouse looks like a copy paste of the g900, and once again has a terrible button layout and not enough buttons for anything but CS GO.
When will they make a no lag wireless mouse with several thumb / pointer finger buttons?
Nope, waiting on what logitech releases next with g900 performance myself.
Im convinced they deleted buttons on purpose so they have something they can add later and get people to upgrade.
G900 is good for csgo... anyother game with lots of controls? Youre SOL
No they still look like shit.
But most people would argue the experience makes up for shit in your eye, and I would agree.
If you arnt drawn in by the feeling of being in a video game instead of playing it on a monitor, and really just want better graphics then its best to sit this one out...
Oculus. No contest. Its even better than vive slightly if youre only doing seated experiences. 980ti is more than capable for the majority of VR content.
The only advantage a 1080ti has is it lets you crank up the pixel density a bit more, or maintain 90fps in certain demanding titles to avoid...

Yeah i guess it depends which one you go for as well. They all seem to be hard to get but some border on impossible.
I tried for asus strix, then aorus xtreme and now i guess im on evga ftw3 unless i can get a strix before then.
Been F5'ing like crazy all week to get that strix, but then Asus said another couple weeks... of course it gets posted tonight on my drive home from work with no notice or any indication that it was going on sale.
Cant stand that shit after skipping the FE to wait for it.

They advise you to do that becuase they dont believe the average consumer is smart enough to not overload their singular USB3.0 controller on their motherboard.
Their software is not (yet) able to alert you that you have exceeded the bandwidth of a USB 3.0 controller other than giving arbitrary...
Who would spend thousands on pc components and vr hardware and then not go the extra .01 miles to have everything operating at tip top shape aka usb3.0?

I dont think its sensitivity, its just everyone has a different configuration.
1 guy is using closed ear headphones with the PC under a desk or even in extreme cases in another room.
Another guy is using desktop speakers he spent buku bucks on and has their PC on the desk next to their head...
The rift is really much better, and its a shame because of the facebook connection as mentioned.
The Vive excels at roomscale but its a one trick pony. Assuming you manage to get your rift setup so that its *close* to the roomscale capabilities of the vive (you can never 100% match it with the...
