    Anyone using a pocketable headphone dac/amp?

    I've been using my Timeless 7hz IEMs with my deck, they sound great but I wanted to try my Hifiman Sundaras as they have a larger soundstage. The problem is the decks headphone port is not powerful enough to power the Sundaras to their full potential. So I was looking into a pocketable dac/amp...

    So I recently added a powered center speaker to my 2.1 speaker setup, so I now have a 3.1 speaker setup (Front L/R, a center speaker, and sub). Connected to my Windows 11 box, using 3.5mm connections. In windows its a complete random mix of what uses only uses my front L/R speakers, or what...

    Samsung announced a 42" oled. (Probably just using LGs oled panel)

    Yeah, Samsung has announced a 42" OLED at CES, however the panel is probably just LGs 42" panel. HOWEVER, I'm mentioning this because perhaps it means we will get a 42" 16:9 QDOLED in the future.

    What do we think of Sony moving away from OLED and back to LED?

    Rumour has it Sony will be focusing heavily again on LED panels mainly due to higher nit capabilities. Don't flame me I'm just the messenger. https://youtu.be/grBlT1DIqZk?si=LHZC3e7g8e8TxkNKu

    Is there a way to circumnavigate not being able to connect more external monitors to macbooks?

    I'm going to assume this can't be done. But I just got myself a M3 (not max) Macbook Pro. I have three external 4K monitors that I would like to connect to it, but according to this apple page I can only connect two external monitors, and I would need the m2 or m3 max chip in order to connect...

    GPU recommended purely for 4K video play back?

    Hi dudes, so I'm considering getting a new TV (maybe A95L that can do 120hz 4K) and this TV will be connected to my media server (i5 7700k, 1050ti, a bunch of 4-8TB drives you get the idea). Through this media server I stream content via netflix, prime video or mainly youtube on my 1gbs...

    Rog Swift Pro PG248QP (540hz TN panel)

    Welp, I'm not sure if there are many competitive gamers floating around [H], but I figured this screen still warranted acknowledgement. I'll admit the smoothness in the slowed down video looks impressive. "It's like looking through a window at my game" sounds like something I at least want to...

    Do any of you have a Seagate Ironwolf HDD? I just have a quick question.

    I bought a Seagate Ironwolf HDD for the first time last month to use in my media server. I usually buy WD Red, and have had good luck with them but I thought I would give a Ironwolf a try. My god, the sound of scrubbing coming from the Ironwolf is crazy loud, I can't even hear my WD Red but...

    Set your UMA buffer to 4gb?

    Hey guys, I have been watching some Steam Deck setup guides as I wait for my Steam Deck, one tip I saw was "set your UMA buffer to 4GB". I have only seen this one youtuber talk about this, is this still something that needs to be manually done? What are the downsides to doing this?

    Is the SanDisk Extreme microSDXC still the SD card to get for the steam deck?

    Just got my 64gb steam deck, obviously I need to upgrade the hard drive with a 1tb microcd, is the SanDisk extreme still the SD card to get? I understand it's the fastest, but I just wish it wasn't as expensive as it is, so I was considering a lesser speed/expensive sd card.

    Whoever releases a 16:9 42" 240hz 4k OLED screen first will get my money so fast I might break my arms.

    16:9 42" 240hz 4k OLED - this is it, this is what I have been waiting for before building a new PC, waiting for several years, and the kind of screen I would think about the future might have when I was a kid. Once a 16:9 42" 240hz 4k OLED screen is out then I will build my new PC around...

    Connecting two different sets of powered bookshelf speakers to act as one set of 4 speakers?

    So, I have a 2.0 speaker setup (powered vanatoo transparent one) with my gaming PC, and I was considering getting two more powered bookshelf speakers (something less expensive than the vanatoo's) so I can make myself a 4.0 surround system. However the problem I'm foreseeing is how do I get two...

    Do you ever use your trackpads?

    While I wait for my Steam Deck order to come in I was wondering what using the Steam Deck is actually like, and I just can't see myself ever using the track pads. As I have other handhelds, with a D-pad and joysticks, and I have never thought "I would like a third option". I might be 100%...

    Can we possibly turn this place into forum for handheld gaming, and not just about the steam deck?

    First off, I love the steam deck, and I will probably purchase the next iteration. That being said, I feel handheld PCs are only going to become more popular over the next few years, and I don't want to pigeon hole this forum into being just about the steam deck. I mean there is the AyaNeo...

    Choosing the right CPU for a system that will support 4-6 Titan RTXs, for the purposes of TensorFlow calculations.

    I have been tasked with building a system for my company, the system will be completely dedicated to machine learning using TensorFlow. We have chosen to use GPUs with large amounts of vRAM, so we will be using 4 or 6 Titan RTX GPUs (because of added cost we didn't use quattros). I already have...

    USB bluetooth dongle that offers LDAC?

    So I'm considering ordering the Drop Pandas when they are released, and I see they offer LDAC. Now, what I say next might make me sound like a noob, but I understand LDAC offers superior sound quality over aptxHD, so I figured I would try to go for it. However, I can't find any dongle or...

    Can anyone recommend me a wifi router/LAN splitter, with LAN ports that can hit 1.5Gbps?

    So, I just got a new apartment, and I was able to get a new ISP that offered 1.5Gbps, so I upgraded my package to 1.5Gbps. However, for some dumb reason my Asus RT-N66U routers can only hit 800mbps over LAN (I have read it's a problem with them), so I'm looking to upgrade. What is the new hot...

    Was Nvidia’s June NDA strong-arm an attempt to stop negative reviews of the 20 series of cards?

    We all remember back in June when Nvidia attempted to push hardware reviewers (like [H]) to sign a new 5 year NDA. For those of you that don’t remember, it was argued that this new NDA would have made it so negative criticism of their products would have been considered breaking the NDA, and...

    Gaming across two screens (one horizontal, one vertical) possible?

    So, I have two screens, a 34” ultra wide (horizontal), and a 27” (vertical), where the 34” is my main screen. I was wondering if it would be possible to extend my game window to my 27” vertical screen. Now, I know most people would say that it would look screwy, even if I got it up and running...

I mainly play BF1 and iRacing, so FPS is probably more important then...
