Zabo needs to start the equivalent of a fitted kitchen business but for PC set ups.

No joke, I would pay someone to make my pc setup clean.

Imagine the shit he could do if you gave him the funds.

I think back to his first venture with the dual monitors, the arm he had the 240hz monitor on to pull down in front of the ultrawide.
I reckon he could definitely make something so that the ultrawide could slide backwards and disappear into the wall behind it. Then have the 240hz slide upwards out of a hidden compartment in the desk.

My dream is to one day have everything motorized and voice controlled via Echo.

"Alexa, switch to Star Citizen mode."

"Alexa, engage Apex demon mode."

"Alexa, activate seat dildo, maximum speed, maximum penetration."

Oof this 3090 dumps a ton of heat into my room when playing COD, even undervolted. The 4090/4090Ti is going to be a literal heater.

Water cool so it more efficiently dumps heat into your room

lol

Pro tip for my fellow UK bros:

Save money on your gas bill this winter by overvolting your 30/40 series GPU to heat your house and play games.

The QD-OLED is beautiful. I am not in the darkest room ever right now or with amazing light control, but I still feel like the blacks are pretty damn black. Maybe not quite as much as my tv, but.... It's one hell of a change going to this. I even played csgo on it today (at 1080p) and it felt surprisingly great, unlike my old UW.

Not really noticing the text rendering problems. I guess i'm not very sensitive to it.

Anybody here have or pre-ordered a Steam Deck?

My gf has one.

What type of games does she use it for?
Is she happy with it?
Anything in particular that she doesn’t like about it?


I’m trying to decide if I should get one or not.

She is mostly using it to play console ports like MH: Rise right now. She had some trouble getting emulators and stuff setup with those automated packages. She is pretty happy about it. I think she was worried about getting the bad fan (higher pitched noise than the "good" fan) and the fan noise, in general, is just about the only thing she has really complained about, iirc.

She is impressed with the haptic controls and the joysticks (especially compared to the Switch's). She is always impressed with how well most games run on it and really appreciates being able to play most games at high or medium settings at 60 fps.

I think she might have some quibbles with the UI but nothing major that I can remember. And that is currently receiving frequent updates from Valve, so less of an issue.

Basically, it's the out-of-the-house or bedtime preferred gaming device for her.

Hideo pls

Hp mousepad, too...

Ty mate.


I’m down with Kojima’s set up. Pure functionality, nothing to distract his auteur mind.

3090 Ti FTW3 for $1200 new, direct from evga.
I’m going to ride it out with my regular 3090 but these prices are getting very tempting.
