It’s always good to show off your little corner of happiness where you get to escape from the world and game. As I’m currently living alone I get to do what I want in terms of my gaming area. I keep moving things around but I think I’m almost set up now for gaming alone and the rare occasions when I’m feeling social. I keep complaining that I’m sat too far from my TV and now you can see why. I’m going to have to invest in a gaming chair I can stick in the middle of the room. Its tricky finding the balance between sitting the ideal distance from your TV and having room to play VR. This is my actual gaming rig. Sony 49” 4k TV, PC, hom…

I need to get new laptop, mine quit sometime ago and I am solely using my work laptop for everything which is fine but at some point I will have to do my sh*t off my own computer. I don't need gaming power as I don't game with a PC, I hate my wifes ASUS, I have always had HP's but don't have to have one. What I want is one thats not so thin it feels like I will break it, with keys and a mousepad that don't feel blending in with the surface with decent memory. Thoughts?

PS4 Wireless Headset Options 1 2
by Smurf- 5 followers
- 36 replies
- 2.6k views
The PS4 itself does not currently have drivers to accommodate a pairing between a Wireless Headset and its self. It uses bluetooth 2.1 EDR (meaning its a secured an Enhanced Data Rate when pairing). The USB, Digital Optical Out on the console and the 3.5mm Headphone Jack on the controller/ TV/ monitor are the only options left, by using some type of compatible dongle/ transmitter to transfer and receive chat, in game audio and mic audio. The results will vary among the lot or it will simply recognize it as a unsupported device. My question to you is which compatible PS4 Wireless Headset are you using, how is it connected and rate your experien…

Hi all, I don't seem to be able to sign into PSN on my PS4. I was having poor internet connection the other day and couldn't sign in. Every time I've tried since I get the same. Even with a LAN cable and decent download and upload speeds. I've reset my router several times. I keep getting the message: This feature is temporarily unavailable. Please try later (CE-41489-6) The help and advice info is getting me nowhere! Anyone know a solution or have any advice? Thanks

This is a game changer. Pro's Play : Its technology is more powerful than that of a PS5. Game Client & Sever are in the same location at the Google Data Center encypedso latency will be low. (EG. My ps4 latency is 63-85ms vs Geforce Now its 6-38ms their Game Client & Sever are in different locations hence higher ping). No special Expensive Consoles needed, play on almost any devices (Support is coming to Nvidia Shield, though you could currently side load the app). Play with Keyboard & mouse. Any controller even the new ps5 & Xbox Series X/S controllers if you so desire will work, if the battery dies in o…

A copy and paste from this site >> https://www.theverge.com/2019/4/16/18401209/sony-playstation-5-details-8k-graphics-ray-tracing-ssds-ps4-backward-compatibility According to Mark Cerny, who served as the lead system architect for the PS4, the new console isn’t just a spec-boosted upgrade of the PS4, like the PS4 Pro was. There’s entirely new hardware inside the PlayStation 5, including an eight-core CPU based on AMD’s third-gen Ryzen line built on the chip company’s latest 7nm Zen 2 process and a custom GPU based on AMD’s Radeon Navi hardware, which will bring ray-tracing graphics to a game console for the first time. The end result of all those hardwar…

Nvidia GeForce Now Beta period is now over. If you have games on Uplay, Origin, Steam or on Epic Games Store, select games from these services will work with Nvidis GeForce Now streaming platform.

What TV do you have?

Hey crew! I need your help! It's Black Friday season and I'm on the market for a new TV. I've been researching different models for a few weeks now and my choice is made. I'm setting my eyes on a 65" Sony XH90. Anyone has that TV and could give me his opinion? What TV do you guys use and are you planning to get a new TV to go along our new consoles? I'm open to alternatives to the Sony if some of you know are a bit tech savvy. My budget is around 1000€. I saw a Samsung Q80 as well that is similar to the Sony but a bit more expensive. I don't want to jump to OLED yet, too afraid of the burn-in problem.

Yeah, as the title says, I'm looking for a noob-friendly video editing software. Just for some basic editing. A lot of the free software doesn't allow exporting, and if they do, it's super low quality. Thanks.

As i have felt a bit behind in alot of our racing lately i tested my controllers on this site; https://gamepad-tester.com/ My main controller was at about 80% on R2, same with the other "older" one. The two newer ones (that the kids use) was at 100%. The one i use on my other console, that i use mainly for doing stuff alone like hotlapping or creating, was 100% as well. So... SRL watch out! 😋

WIFI Problems!

I've had my old PS4 in my bedroom on wifi for a couple years. I haven't changed a damn thing. Seemingly after the last PSN update, I can't get connected to my wifi. It's stupid as hell. The console is actually connected to the internet because the browser will work. I've searched on the PS website and filtered YT for recient vids and unfiltered. Nothing worked! I'm not asking for tech. I'm asking if anyone has had the same problem.

This is a great 0 latency device for a gamer & has much more user case potential. Its posible that you dont have to spend hundreds extra on low latency Monitors or Tv's as seen in the video below, but transfer speed from 1 device to another needs some work. It works through a HDMI Connector or a USB Type C, this is a kick Starter at the moment of this post. Kickstarter Campaign

Highly doubt the new consoles will have the Wifi AX standard, but would be shocked if it did. Maybe this is something that's useful to you if a service provider in your area supports it.

The targetted cost per month was said to be USD$80 for customers, but at what speed? Their planned 25mb or 50mb download idk. They are seeking to put up 30k satellites as the service is targering rural areas and are registering a beta signup for early 2021. Starlink is also seeking a grant out of Gov initiative of a $16 billion fund set aside to help modernize rural areas digitally where the authorities are holding them to account as it comes to a 100ms latency cap. Its definately something to watch & if you allow yourself to actually think outside the box & pull the trigger & use this service it might change your internet experience from night to da…

Quantum .OLED TV

'My thoughts & assumptions' on this is its going to be cheaper to manufacturing, lower energy use while getting a bright colour acturate screen, lower input latency seeing it doesn't have to spend time filtering colours, expecting image burn in over the years while also expecting it to be more than affordable and thinner & lighter to ship with more space to pack in a shipping container. At the worst they'll charge a heavy price for the research & such if there is no competition working on one in the shadows.
