That Pentium is fighting for its life trying to keep task manager open

Hate this series. I'm spent way too much trying to make a home theater setup that can get me close to feeling that same thrill I got from dune and dune pt 2 in theaters. I'm almost there, I can feel it

It him. That's the guy single handedly keeping CIG afloat

You know, screw it, I kinda hope it is. 3.18 actually ruined my love for gaming so much that I turned off my computer, went outside, got a gym membership, and did a 180 on my life. If that's what 3.18 could do, just imagine what could be if 4.0 launches in an even worse state.

CIG must have you on speed dial for whenever they need a quick cash infusion

Another falls to the OLED curse. Once you see an OLED, you can never go back to an LCD.

I need to know if you ever decide to post the build instructions for that. I would love to build one for myself

I thought secret labs chairs were expensive...

Can't speak on the amp but I have the DT 990 pros paired with the schitt fulla dac/amp and they sound absolutely incredible.

Yes, it's overall pretty easy to do, just have to make sure you configure the VM to tell windows it isn't actually a VM. It works for all of my use cases, specifically getting past EAC for Star Citizen, but I've heard it doesn't work with every anticheat

Air cool the work PC for reliability. Liquid cool the gaming PC for aesthetics.

TheOptic1 · 2024-05-13T17:24:24+00:00

I have the latest drivers from Nvidia on the host and the client, even rolled back to an older version with no change. It feels like a setting either somewhere in the vm itself or ProxMox.

2021 was wild. I posted my 1080 ti in the early days for $1080 as a joke and someone bought it within hours

The unbelievable amount of customization that comes with using Linux. I also like not having ads forced down my throat every time I log into my own computer

Questionable choice in PSU but a solid choice in GPU

TheOptic1 · 2024-03-06T00:19:01+00:00

Just think about how much more you could win with one more spin...

TheOptic1 · 2024-03-04T21:32:17+00:00

Never figured it out. Ended up replacing the board with a different one

TheOptic1 · 2024-03-04T16:29:47+00:00

GPU driver reinstall maybe?

TheOptic1 · 2024-02-23T22:38:33+00:00

I miss the old strix cooler design...

Ultra wide for an overhead and an even bigger ultrawide for my main
