    4090s will be in short supply for the next 2 years

    Almost all Micro Centers that I checked are completely sold out of 4090's.

    Meta Quest 3

    Purchased a Quest 3 on launch day. This is my fifth headset. Primarily PCVR, but I do a lot of standalone for convenience. I was kind of let down that almost none of the standalone Quest 2 titles I have were updated for the Quest 3's much faster GPU and better resolution. Sure, the lenses make...

    Meta Quest 3

    My Quest 3 looks just fine in all regards. I guess I got lucky.

    AMD 7000 series driver update VR fix

    I would love to see a VR performance review with the 4000 series vs the 7000 series with the latest drivers. XTX's are getting close to half the price of the 4090, and if the VR performance is now only 10-15% slower and the games more stable, then it would be hard to justify all that extra money...

    12700k or 13700k vs 13900k for 4090

    It depends on your resolution and target framerate. I game at 4k60 on my TV, and also VR 90hz with my Reverb G2. I went with a 12700K a few months ago (cheap at Micro Center) and it doesn't even break a sweat in my situation with my 4090. What's your resolution and refresh rate?

    Tips on actually getting a 4090?

    Anyone want to try that promo code again from Best Buy? The 4090 I want is finally in stock there but I'm not going to pull the trigger unless I can get the 10% off, and if it's not working I'm not going to apply for the credit card. I changed the JAN24EMOB1 to FEB24EMOB1 and it seems to be a...

    Tips on actually getting a 4090?

    Can anyone confirm the 10% off BB codes are working? From a few weeks ago, lots of posts on Reddit etc. were saying the Q4FY23SAVE10 stopped working, but with the new code that GoodBoy posted (JAN24EMOB1) it looks like they made a new one. I'm very close to pulling the trigger, and the 10% off...

    Anyone seriously considering the 4070 TI

    I ran a 3090 EVGA XC3 on an EVGA 650 G+ for over a year. I had it as a spare, and threw it in the system to do testing and never took it out. Under gaming load, according to my UPS, I never saw total system draw, from the wall, exceed 450w, so I figured I was ok.

    The one time it said I was in line, and to wait a minute, yes, it did. I entered the 2FA code, and then it said it was OOS.

    [H] Stock Alerts, Tips & Tears for Nvidia, AMD, Intel, PS5, XBOX

    Is there a trick to getting the 4090 FE in your cart at BB? I've been trying off and on for 2 days, and multiple times while F5ing it will show a yellow Add To Cart. I click the button, and a window pops up that says it's sold out. Then, immediately after I F5, it shows a yellow Add To Cart, and...

    HURRY - Micro Center - 12700K + ASUS TUF Z690 Combo - $350

    Dang, even better! Had I waited, I probably would have jumped on that 12600K deal instead for about $100 less. This is even a tempting combo to upgrade my Plex server. Hmmm....
