What’s the hype around this?

Well it’s supposedly a great PS4 game which I’ve been watching since it was listed but it is a train wreck of a port

Wanted to buy a new pair of earphones but was too lazy to do any research in to what's good and what's not. Luckily @DrMacintosh saved the day by sharing this vid.

If it's good enough for an Aussie it's good enough for me.

Also decided to up the audio.

 

https://www.amazon.ca/-/fr/Logitech-Z906-Système-haut-parleurs-surround/dp/B004M18O60?language=en_CA

 

So basically

 

Speakers: Edifier S730 2.1 ---> Logitech Z906 5.1 

Monitor: ASUS ROG PG278Q 27 inches ---> Dell Alienware AW3420DW 34 inches 

 

Next step: nVIDIA 3000 series, CPU / Mobo,  if it's reasonable.

I'm also looking for an ultra-wide 1440p 144Hz IPS monitor. This one looks great.

Ouch.. My concern is having it left at my door when I am away, where the elements can get to it, or porch pirates.. (They almost always leave everything at the door in my area, regardless of what it is)

Immersion is much better in games/movies, and that's what they're made for.

[Kilrah]

It makes the viewing angle and eye-screen distance change less based on where you look - I find it better for every use (including photo/video editing and CAD).

No point taking a photo of the front. It's just a black slate XD. 

 

Very happy with it though. And prices came down after the announcement of the s7 which is why I didn't wait for the s7 to be released. Too expensive for not enough of a difference for me.

happened to my secretlab omen chair i bought two months ago.

i got a call from the delivery guy saying noone was home and where he should place it.

i guided him by saying "go through the big gate and turn left, follow the wall on the left and open the first door on the left, and place it behind the door at the bottom of the wooden stairs, that should be next to a white door, which is my door".

apparently he just walked left, and straight and placed it in the open blocking the door of an elderly woman (above 75 y.o) who can't walk very far on her own, basically putting a 40Kg package as a door stopper, in the rain.

if my mom wasn't home 15 min later and i hadn't informed her it would probably either have caused distress for the elderly woman, or damage to my chair.

bought 12 of theese.

hope they taste good, the orange ones didn't
