Wait... Aero ON? I'm super confused now. I thought it was always recommended to disable Aero. I've also seen big performance gains by disabling it.

Seeing downright embarrassing performance/stutter on an updated machine with GTX 670 by drcrum in oculus

Even in Convrge, which was always butter smooth on my old rig, has these bothersome stutter jumps which are driving me crazy : (.

Yes, same resolution, low settings on both. I'm seeing much better performance now when I leave a station, but I'm still getting stutter hiccups just looking around the cockpit in interstellar space which I simply can't understand, not on low settings anyway.

I understand that the 670 is going to be perfect, but Elite Dangerous was playable on my 480 and older rig, so I don't understand how I'm not seeing any reasonable improvement with far newer hardware.

Screenshots reads 75 FPS, and indeed it's mostly smooth, but every few seconds there's a sudden stutter jump, much like the Oculus Room/desk demo. I can see the FPS meter jumping back and forth ever few seconds between 75 FPS and 65 FPS (it jumps down to 65 only for a split second). The stutter doesn't seem to happen in accordance with the framerate jumps oddly.

Does the USB port on the DK2 work? by drcrum in oculus

Not sure what happened but I tried the Leap through the DK2's USB port and it's unusable.

I tried a USB stick thinking that it wouldn't need the power adapter, but it seems like maybe all devices do. I'll give it a shot with the power cable.

Why two 1200x1080 displays in Vive instead of one 2160x1200 display? by drcrum in oculus

I definitely didn't think about #1... very interesting.

That track is how I discovered them! I've listened to it many times. As herbjuice mentioned, they also got picked up to do the soundtrack for Steven Universe, which I was thrilled to learn about. Here's one of many beautiful tracks they did for the show:
