    This mining craze has produced insane trades!

    Careful with that. Mining is 100% GPU 24/7. Even the new mining oriented Radeon cards coming out only have a 3 month warranty because they know the GPUs will be tortured. I expect once this craze is over to see a ton of cards dumped on eBay and go for pretty cheap, but I would avoid them for...

    New GPU for Oculus - Any advice ?

    I fiinally got to pump up project cars and it was great. I have a wheel and pedals I plan to connect this weekend and really give me and the kids some fun. I'm loving oculus!! Sensor problems appear like frame rate issues I have found. I got the Oculus with a third camera and outside of a...

    I bought a Pimax 4k HMD for $360

    I wondered about that myself, and I'm sure if I used a 4k option I would notice it going back to the oculus. However, I've used a VIVE and now have an Oculus and I don't notice the SDE at all in games. You're too busy having fun focusing on the game itself and not so much the resolution, but...

    Sound card or external dac?

    In my case, I heard a distinct difference between the onboard audio from my MSI Z77 GD 65 board, and the Dell T3500 I'm using as a temp system. Same speakers and amp (receiver), but the onboard DAC was clearly..not as clear lol. I mean, the first time I turned it on and listened I wasn't...

    New GPU for Oculus - Any advice ?

    Yeah, it works great! I do see a difference, especially in racing games. The price difference between a 980 TI and 1070 is too much to justify over a little frame rate niggle. I mean I was using a 480 for cripes sake. This is MUCH better. Because the 980 TI is higher than the min...

    This mining craze has produced insane trades!

    I had an RX 480 4GB card in my VR machine until this past weekend when I sold it for $350 on ebay. That's nuts considering I only paid $130 after rebate from Newegg in December. I, in turn, picked up an EVGA 980 TI SC (with 1 1/2 yr warranty left) or $311. A bit higher than some have gone on...

    What's your fallback card?

    I use a gtx 280. I'm about to have to use it now since I'm borrowing my daughters 7850 and plan to give it back. I'm still looking for a new card. Anybody have a 780 Ti or similar they want to sell?

    Sound card or external dac?

    Well, that makes sense then based on your reasoning. Right now I think a DAC is the best upgrade. I could be wrong, but I think it will be. when I do my zen 2 build next year I will possibly consider upgrading the sound system altogether. It won't be more than a 2.1 system though. I don't...

    Sound card or external dac?

    "Entry level" ? Sorry, I disagree. I could agree they are mid-ranged, but still not entry level. Especially being pushed on this Denon. It really just depends on the price category. For PC speakers, they are high end. As stand alone speakers, they are mid level or maybe even lower mid level...

    Sound card or external dac?

    My speakers are still fantastic. It's hard to beat those Klipsch Pro Medias without getting into more high-end home theater systems. I've had those for like 15+ years. The receiver could be a weak point possibly, but finding a decent price on something that does 4ohm and sub out is pretty...

    Sound card or external dac?

    The Denon I have is DRA-395. How does the DAC in that compare to these external ones?

    Sound card or external dac?

    I currently use the built in audio on the OEM Dell 1366 board I have. It was noticeably less in quality than the MSI z77 board I was using until that system moved to my living room for VR. I am really wanting to get back into more high end audio, so I have been looking at sound cards and...

    Most amazing craigslist find ever!!!

    My sub messed up and I tried to fix it, but to no avail. I still have the 4 satellites and I use two of them right now connected to a Denon stereo receiver that can handle 4-ohm speakers. Still sound fantastic! These pareid with a sound blaster Audigy back in the day was pure magic. I think...
