"affordable". its still $2000

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

Just save up and buy a Titan X quad SLI rig and a movie theater, and game on that projector.

It came in yesterday, Its sooo refreshing to see 125'' in 4K.... Gaming Isn't bad for what Im used to in terms of input lag, I would consider it playable. Battlefield 4 is running 70FPS and Battlefield 1 is in the 50s maybe 40s on my 980ti, max setting in 4K... I shall wait until Volta before I start shopping again...

 

Please note: HDMI port 2 is the only port that can handle 4K 60HZ I had it plugged into HDMI port 1 on the projector and only got 30Hz in 4K I even went to Walmart to buy an new HDMI cable I felt pretty dumb after figuring out it just needed plugged int HDMI 2 

 

 

Get this projector if you in the market, Seriously 4k at these sizes just makes sense its beautiful!!!
