  1. Rig Name: The Borg Cube CPU: Intel Core i7 5960X (OC to 4.2GHz) GPU: 2x Nvidia GTX TItan X (only 1 was used in testing) RAM: 16GB DDR4 (@2133MHz) Score: VR Ready, perfect score
  2. For anyone still interested, it appears that the video has been taken offline due to a copyright claim by CBS. The website also changed to say "stay tuned". Maybe CBS decided they wanted to make this a real thing and profit?
  3. UPDATE: The video was taken down due to a CBS copyright claim, and the website now simply says "stay tuned" From the youtube description: "Take a short walk through a few decks of Star Trek's USS Enterprise from ST: The Next Generation. The ship is being created in the Unreal Engine, and is Oculus Rift ready!" [my notes: go from the main shuttlebay on deck 4 upwards, including things not featured on the show, such as 2-forward, but can be found in the technical blueprints created by Rick Sternbach] https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=1&v=uK9ijZeHWjI It appears that this is the result of one man's labour and the website can be found at http://www.enterprise3dproject.com/. He's raising money via patreon and kickstarter to try and get this finished. Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=2363815&ty=h?target=blank Kickstarter: [no link as of writing] For disclosure, I'm not affiliated in anyway, just enough of a massive star trek fan that I'm not ashamed to say I teared up a little watching that, and felt it would be something others may be interested in knowing about.

  4. As someone who bought the 5960X (8core), I'd probably recommend Z170 based on value for money for gaming performance. My need for 8 cores is because I do a lot of audio production and I have to say having 8 full cores instead of only 4 is a massive noticeable benefit (even at a lower clock speed). Personally I might say if you're going with X99 6core (is it the 5820K?) that might be the best all rounder as you'll have more real cores for rendering but high clock speeds for gaming, and at a price that could be considered more reasonable for that performance. Of course, you would get the best out of both of these processors with some moderate overclocks.
  5. If its anything like the bombers they've been sending near the UK airspace to force us to scramble our fighters, its just russia pushing buttons and trying to provoke something imho. but what do i know, im only a dev
  6. Wait so are they a sheep to follow everyone else, or do they like some weird crap? Confused...
  7. Not necessarily true as the GPU is kept identical between comparisons, so you could use the same oc'd gpu and get the results from 2 different cpu's. Would still be an interesting comparison, whereas what are you going to overclock the cpu's to since they have different base clocks. From the podcast I watched, they did clock each generation of intel cpu Sandy Bridge to Skylake at 3.5GHz base clock (which i believe for Sandy Bridge was a slight oc?) and compared the performance that way. That one is available here: http://www.pcper.com/reviews/Processors/Intel-Core-i7-6700K-Review-Skylake-First-Enthusiasts/Clock-Clock-Skylake-Broadwel
  8. I've spent a lot of time in the past tinkering with settings to get the best performance and I always found that it was always pretty much identical to what GeForce Experience told me was optimal. From then on, I just use that, you can even customise it to give a little more quality or a little more performance as you prefer
  9. This sounds like it's gotten stuck if its been 99% for 6 hours. Depending upon your computer specs, in the past a reset hasnt even taken half an hour for me. If you do restart and it boots into windows, try running sfc /scannow in an elevated command prompt. (press windows + x, command prompt admin). That will scan your system files to make sure everything's as it should be. Post back here for further help and good luck.
  10. oc'd gpu or cpu? because comparing overclocked cpu's they would have to have a large sample size to draw any reasonable conclusion
