I’m wondering if they’re going to make these cards smaller. The 3090ti was thick. I got a water cooled 4090 with a separate radiator that made it a bit easier to install together with another, older graphics card. What’s next? A graphics card outside the computer with it’s own power supply?

I threw mine away two years ago. Had been sitting in the garage for a while taking up space. I hooked it up to my 980ti to see if it still worked and it was fine. Checked around in the neighborhood if anyone was interested but nobody wanted it. Should’ve put it on EBay in hind sight, or just...

I had the 49 inch but felt the height wasn’t enough. Looks like 57 inch might just hit the spot for my flightsim. Going to give it a try when it gets released.

A few years ago Intel’s top of the line cpu’s cost $1400. Now they’re $600. Motherboards have gone up but you can still get a decent one with all the bells and whistles for around $200. Memory is a lot cheaper also. GPU’s is where it gets iffy. If you buy a used GPU or get last years, you can...

I got a mint used Gigabyte Aorus 3090 a few weeks ago for $800. The scalpers are setting the prices and the manufacturers are following suit. We’re our own worst enemy. Stop buying from scalpers at ludicrous mark ups and the msrp’s will stop going up. I want the latest and greatest as much as...

3090ti’s are in stock again. Going to hold off and see how the 4000 series is going to perform and price though. Bit silly to spend $2200 on a card and a few months from now be able to spend that same silly money on something better. Been waiting to built a new flight sim rig for the last two...

The Quest 2 is half the price of the G2. Has no cable so freedom of movement in standup games. For 90% of the population new to VR the Q2 is a no brainer. The other 10% that has the money for it and only plays sit down simulation games the G2 is better.

Remember, it took a couple of days before your first one started having hiccups. Mine was fine for about 4 days before I started having the same issues you had. Messing with the connector fixed it so keeping my fingers crossed. I wish they had a shorter cable available. I think the weight of the...

I had mine cutting out one eye and then both. Replugged the power cord into the break out box and everything was fine again. No troubles since then. Keeping an eye out for it though. If it reoccurs I may have to return it before the warranty runs out.

I have the same exact specs and DCS, Il2 and Elite Dangerous run smooth at high settings. I thought I’d need to upgrade but that’s on the back burner.

Pleasantly surprised how my 1080ti is holding up in DCS, Il2 and Elite Dangerous. Was planning on upgrading but am playing at the same settings I use with my 4K monitor and having smooth gameplay with the G2. Looks like I’ll get a 3080 when the 4080 drops.

Why I want a new GPU? Skipped the 2080ti and am still on a 1080ti. Had no need for an upgrade until my HP Reverb G2 arrived last week. I have to dial settings down to medium. That’s a good time to upgrade. Also need to upgrade my CPU. Nice to do a whole new built and prevent glaring bottle...

I ordered a G2 on BLT three months ago. No dice. Got an email every two weeks that the expected arrival in their warehouse was, you guessed it, two weeks. After reading Draax post I went straight to the US HP site and ordered one there. Shipped a day later and should be here on Monday. Also...

Nobody is putting a gun to your head to buy this thing and pigeonholing you into playing anything. I agree with you mostly on what they promised. From an advertising point of view they’ve come up short. It has compromises but within my niche I can more than live with those.
