I just got a Quest 2 after debating and concluding that the Facebook account was tolerable. Screw this!

The price is different too. Maybe the reviewer was just lazy. It's not a lot but that 8% is a significant difference in light of TPU's own review.

I don't understand. Why is the 11900K, an 8-core with massive IPC improvements, perfectly tied with it's 10-core predecessor in gaming? I'd think the 11900K should be a clear winner.

I thought China wasn't supposed to have such an advanced process.

They do yes. An FPGA implementation will always be slower and take more die space than dedicated hardware. However, if there is more than one accelerator present and only one is used at a time then an FPGA implementation can emulate both while taking up less space. Further an FPGA solution is...

I know that mine didn't used to do this, that's why I'm here.

I have an AMD 1950X Threadripper CPU that for some reason seems to be thermal throttling at only 68 degrees C (according to Core Temp and other utilities). I don't know when this started but I know it didn't used to do this. I've tried older BIOS and older chipset drivers from AMD to no effect...

Considering how significant the latency with ordinary cloud gaming is I doubt cloud VR would be usable.

Playing it now, wow it's beautiful!

Neat, but why does this have so many comments?

Thanks guys! I'll tell him not to worry.

A friend of mine is building a PC and ran into a weird problem with attaching the PSUs PCIe power connectors to his graphics card. They don't match They're not for the 12V CPU power either, they have the 6/8 split like a PCIe plug. At first I thought it was a goof at the factory, but he...

Wait, really? Matrices are one of (if not THE) fundamental data types in MATLAB and parallel operations are the norm. I'm surprised Octave isn't similarly optimized for them, though that would be typical of GNU's software.

I'm pretty sure HIP is dead.

OpenCL already does this, including unusual hardware like FPGAs. And AMD has been championing Hetrogeneous System Architecture for years.
