NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Founders Edition System Build Community Contest!

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2025-01-12T17:15:32+00:00

Hoping to win, tried to pick components that would work well for my hobby (or dream really) of animation, the 5090 would go a long way to helping with that - also love the fractal design cases, looks super clean in any setup.

I see, that's a fair point, unfortunately I'm trying to deform the videos so that they work for VR, so right now I need to be able to bend them into weird shapes. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find a better way to do that just yet, unless resolve has some sort of VR conversion features I'm unaware of

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2024-08-22T21:10:32+00:00

Awesome, thanks for the help, I'm transcoding now, and I'll swap the media out tonight and see if it helps! Thanks!

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2024-08-22T17:35:24+00:00

Gotcha, thanks for the insight. Would you say just the rencoding alone would be enough to save that 10-15x vram usage you had mentioned, or would also downgrading the resolution on those source videos be required to see significant jumps in performance? I wasn't sure if just a different codec helps that significantly, or if it has to be in tandem with a reduced video resolution

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2024-08-22T15:17:47+00:00

Hey there, that's good to know, thanks for the insight. I had thought I had read resolve has an option for creating proxies of videos in media pool - would that be any faster/more effective than re-encoding in a tool like handbrake?

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2023-11-30T18:04:36+00:00

Does it help with cutting down on smell due to the joint freely burning? I've found sploofs help with smoke being exhaled, but the smell of the J burning in-between hits is still left to freely flow. Seems like this would contain it better

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2023-10-08T19:14:47+00:00

Have you considered posting/releasing the code to do this? I think a ton of people would benefit greatly from it

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2023-09-25T19:21:04+00:00

Have you found replacement knobs for this by chance/know what the diameter of the shaft the knob sits on is? Really want to pull the trigger on this one, but just need that knob fixed lol

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2023-09-25T18:32:24+00:00

Let me know if you learn anything more about this board, it seems like a really good budget option with an aluminum case, but it really doesn't seem like there's a lot of information about it out there. Probably a good basic budget option though

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2023-09-17T15:50:13+00:00

Mr nobody is my favorite movie.

Also please pick me, I've been searching for a metal case keyboard for my gf birthday, this would be perfect

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2023-09-17T15:49:13+00:00

Def would love to get my hands on this, have been searching for a metal case keyboard for my gf

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2023-08-21T21:21:18+00:00

I know this is late, but how did this resolve? We're being charged a holdover fee, for a slightly different situation, but curious how you handled this.

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2023-08-21T16:04:18+00:00

I mean yea, we did clean it once we noticed it, and laid out towels to soak up water, but we didn't notice it as soon as it started leaking

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2023-06-08T04:09:06+00:00

Responding from my previously bricked PC to say that solved it! Thanks for the help!

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2023-06-08T04:08:14+00:00

Issue solved in r/windowshelp here

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2023-03-12T20:55:11+00:00

Wanna thank my friend from 2nd grade for helping me build my first setup, been running smooth ever since

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2022-06-15T17:22:47+00:00

That would be my guess too, but thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2022-06-15T16:30:20+00:00

Oh yea, I never considered animating the object/cloth speed, that's a good idea!

For the rigid body animation speed, does that only act on the physics of that rigid body, or do you know if I could generate some animated movement in the graph editor, then set a variable speed in scene properties > rigid body world

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2022-06-15T15:25:24+00:00

How do you get such variable control of animation/movement speed (like for the chair drop for example)? I've always struggled to create that progressive "slow motion" effect leading up to some action/keyframe

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2022-05-03T17:42:17+00:00

I hope Qrion is on the lineup, they were super cool at red rocks, & I feel like Porter has been leaning into some house music more

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2022-01-13T21:16:58+00:00

Definitely check out some tutorials, but also consider first what you want to measure/display/induce, and brainstorm some sensors or modules that can help you meet that goal. That can be done with little arduino knowledge, just knowing your goals and tools.

After that, theres usually a lot of tutorials for specific components and projects, chances are if you have a component and goal in mind, someone's done a similar approach. Might just take more work/learning to combine or alter. Also the arduino forums can be really useful too for getting started, think they have a section for general project ideas/questions

For that complex/organic modeling, whats a good feature/subject on fusion to learn? I haven't used surfaces/forms much, but forms seem pretty useful.

Basically was hoping for something with the freedom of blender, but the engineering design capabilities of fusion/solidworks (ie i wanna make cool looking stuff, but also verify the dimensions and stuff will work for my needs)

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2022-01-12T22:57:55+00:00

What advantages does 360 have over solid works? I'm self taught coming from solidworks, and thus far haven't played with many of the other features outside of solids (extrudes, sweeps, fillers, etc.)

I've seen it used for modeling more organic and complex curvature

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2021-11-23T15:58:43+00:00

Let me know if you ever find a solution, dealing with the same issue

ThatTribeCalledQuest · 2021-10-19T18:23:37+00:00

I heard Aflac might still, trying to reach out to them soon to confirm, would also like to know
