    Cheapest Card with HDMI 2.1?

    There is no DP on the Monitor, it's actually a 48" LGOLED CX...I use similar and 120hz is smoother for everyday use, so a HDMI 2.1 card would be useful. I'll look at the RX 6400... Cheers all,

    Cheapest Card with HDMI 2.1?

    Hello All, I've just got my Dad a 4k 120hz capable monitor, his old GPU (Nvidia 720 I think!) can only handle 4k 60hz, he doesn't game or do anything more stressful than browse the web edit MP3's etc and therefore wants to spend as little as possible, it seems the Nvidia 4030 card isn't...

    Recommended media player setup

    I use a Nvidia Shield (2016) running plex with a attached 2TB SSD (as a Hard Drive would constantly spin)...I also have a old low powered PC (Windows 11) running a Plex server (over 25TB), I can access both via a Nvidia Shield (2019), Nvidia Shield (2017) and 4k Firestick, Shields are slightly...

    Reading this thread has convinced me to keep my 5900x until Zen 5 is out...doesn't seem worth it at 4k. Thanks all, good read.

    I've already got these (but wanted to upgrade), these fit really well and I've never had a issue with them failing out (you can see why from the design)... https://www.jabra.co.uk/supportpages/jabra-elite-sport#/#100-98600001-60

    Recommend me some EarBuds?

    Thinking of sending these back, as I can't get them to stay in my ears! and, I might be expecting too much (based on having some "ear cup" noise cancelling headphones, but not impressed by the noise cancelling at all...) Back to the drawing board! I guess the ability to stay in the ear while...

    What Virtual Reality games are you playing?

    That's good, we had Walkabout on release and I'm sure we had to buy the extra packs to play even on-line...good for them to change it, it is a great social game and the physic's etc are amazing (for anyone who's not got it, it's a must buy!)

    What Virtual Reality games are you playing?

    Walkabout, that must be new? I'm sure me and my mates all needed to purchase the extra courses in the past (or we're all daft and did!) Good to know, cheers!

    Recommend me some EarBuds?

    Hi, I can always send them back if I'm not happy... Have you used both earbuds or are you going from reviews out of interest, the XM5's review very well but I've obviously not used them. Cheers,

    The only way I've got 3D to play is via a old PC running Windows 10 and older Nvidia driver...I've tried a Raspberry PI3 and Shield (I know the Shield doesn't support SBS 3D) but the Raspberry PI3 is supposed to but I've had no luck...might be specific to my Projector...be interested to know if...
