    Meta Horizon OS

    Meta Horizon OS sounds promising we will have to see. It sounds like what Microsoft tried to do with their mixed reality headsets. Look at how many manufactures (Samsung, Asus, Acer, HP, Lenovo) they had at start and they were sub 300 bucks. Of course Meta's tracking is much better. I'm curious...

    [Official] Meta Quest 3

    MRTV says this cable works. I haven't tested it. I only use Quest 3 wirelessly. I use the BoboVR S3 Pro Super Strap (That's a mouth full.. lol) or as the Layman's call it just the S3. One thing to remember is that the quest 3 will stop charging if it starts to heat up. The best solution is...

    What's your latest tech purchase?

    I bought a new i7 14700k at bestbuy over the weekend. They have them for $444.44, but newegg had a sale for $400.99. Best buy will match them or at least they have in the past. I go there and during check out the guy says wait we don't honor newegg anymore. I said who do you honor so can look...

    VS 2017 Express IntelliSense

    Yes, it feels much snapper. I mean 2019 was better, but I wouldn't use either over vb2022. Moving from a 32bit version to 64bit version should benefit you the most on a large project.

    [Official] Meta Quest 3

    Great choice! The Quest 3 is great. I didn't think I would notice that much of a difference from Quest 2 to 3, but I'm glad I was wrong. The sweet spot is so much bigger these new pancake lenses are really good. I look forward to hear what you think about it.

    VS 2017 Express IntelliSense

    I have upgraded to VS 2022 64bit. I would upgrade if possible due to VS2017 only being 32bit.

    Samsung Expands Odyssey Gaming Monitor Lineup With New OLED Models at CES 2024

    I might upgrade my Odyssey G5 for an Oled. I was looking at the Corsair Xeneon 32" 1440p IPS monitor, but I might hold out for these oled models.

    [Official] Meta Quest 3

    It's really good the visuals are fantastic and the sweet spot is much bigger than the Quest 2's. Now with the official Steam Link app on the Quest store it so much better now with PCVR. The Pancake lenses are really great. I have a wide IPD @ 67 and on the Quest 2 it made the FOV much smaller...

    Moderation Too Strict

    Debatable! -Everyone I'd like to take this time to say I think I'm doing a very good job of Moderating with a high level of humorist toleration. :pimp:

    [Official] Meta Quest 3

    I don't think they can drop the price 150 bucks just by removing the controllers. In the BOM that I listed above only show 33 bucks for both controllers. There is rumors of a Quest lite without controllers and using fresnal lenses with one LCD panel. Honestly, I could not go back to Fresnal...

    Steam Link for Meta Quest

    I'm not sure why it doesn't list AMD GPU's, but in the comments you can see people with AMD GPU's are using it.

    Steam Link for Meta Quest

    Wow, Valve just launched an official Steam Link app on the Quest Store! I tried it last night and it worked amazing. It was super simple to use and so far the best wireless PCVR experience. This is huge for PCVR.

    [Official] Meta Quest 3

    Yeah, it really is an investment but I like this approach better than being held down to one strap. The Quest 3 BOM leaked and it shows they are still selling the Quest line at a loss which is good for us. I'm really blown away at how good the Quest 3 is for $499 with today's inflation.
